How To Easily Tank At A Low Level | WoW Classic

where the talents?

What about duel wield ya king with all these things in mind? Or is 2h the play?

Its complete utter bs if this guy is right. No wonder so many tanks are confused. The blizzrd dev are the worse trolls in the game.

this was actually super helpful for me. currently learning tanking, so hearing about sword and shield vs two-handing, as well as thunderclap vs shouts was really useful.

wrr, n osuch thing as ex or hx or etc, outx, cna outx etc any nmw s perfx

Two stacks of sunder armor or one revenge is the best way to aggro. Can switch to battle stance and hamstring to kite mobs while the team finishes them and you run to the next pack. Or piercing howl. This made warrior tanking the most fun for me.

didn’t know this was an issue. ANY class can tank at this level. I’ve healed them all with no problem.

I just started a Warrior alt in SOD (Warlock is my main) and iv honestly felt so underpowered and worried I wouldn't be able to raid because I can't hold threat. Even teaming up with a buddy who is a warlock to do quests at level 10 I can't hold threat and the mobs rush for him.

Coming from FFXIV as a main tank, I see some similarities but still feels like an uphill battle learning WoW's tanking D;

Has you opinion on Tclap changed with the SOD rune?

man you're a lifesaver. most of the other "guides" gave horrible advice. whats your take on heroic strike? dump it completely and just sunder/auto attack, cleave (+overpower) everything?

missing the runes. devastation rune for example with shield and 1h

When you put charge and the switch to def-stance in a macro, you can get the rage from charging into def-stance without tactical-mastery.
Also it's very weird to me how so many tanking-guides don't even mention taunt. Taunt has a lot of potential when used correctly and can be next to useless when used incorrectly. So a brief mention of how it works would be nice. It has 2 effects. One is to force a mob to attack you for a few seconds but the other is: It copies the threat of whoever has aggro before. So you can generate a ton of threat on a mob all at once the bigger the discrepancy was.
I'd also highly recommend using an add-on like threat-plates. You can configure it to show your aggro-percentage on a mob. This is very helpful for knowing what to taunt and also for conserving rage for the next pull. So you taunt the one where your threat is the lowest and don't waste rage on this mob before taunting since you'll bridge the discrepancy anyways.

Also discouraging the use of a shield is not something I'm a fan of. When you don't use it, you are just someone who keeps threat. Part of tanking is also to mitigate damage. It's okay when you are overleveled and on most trash. As long as the healer doesn't need mana-breaks. But especially for HC, I'd rather have more mitigation on the tank.

What spec did you use here in this video? Does spec really matter?

do NOT take advice from someone without nameplates.

Great guide - I had a sword and board in RFC and you're right - no one was waiting - going to change to these tactics - thank you !!!!

Yo man you playing SoD? What realm you on and do you have a guild? Would love to run with you again.

What spec and runes?

why are people hating on tanking with a staff? crescent is a big upgrade for 2h dps at that level... more damage = more threat. i appreciate all of the tank videos frenzi, im currently learning and a lot of your stuff has helped me. excited for the SoD content.

Short, simple and sweet. Great video!

Appreciate all the love on my tanking videos and all my others ones! Must be great videos if people’s only complaint/cry is nameplates even though I recommend them to players every single video ❤️

guy tanking with a staff still has auto attack bound, idk about this guide

Makes guide for tanking and doesn't have nameplates. What it this?

What would be an optimal ratio of shouts in the beginning?

I love your responses to the comments. A true pioneer and not afraid to do what is best for you, instead of being a robot who needs to be told what to do and how to do it by other robots. What a legend

You dont even need def stance, i facetanked up to the 50ies just doing the most dmg in combat stance 😂

I'm getting ready to start tanking Ulda, is there a point in the game you should start using a shield?

Tactical mastery and a 2 hander, ez tanking for leveling

Imagine ppl need a guide like this

I am so terrible at tanking. Think ill go back to heals 😢

You play without nameplates 😢

Would love to see the same guide for druid and pala, if you are familiar tanking with these?

idk if i can trust a man who doesnt have nameplates turned on =P

Would be nice to make a tank guide series for every dungeon in the game and covering all their critical points to pay attention
