  • How do you keep aggro?

    

  • they took shaman tanks away:(

  • @mattjonesable they took shaman everything away those rat bastards

  • I tanked icc with him... saurfang "taunts" make me sad D:

  • awesome video, not that i'd tank with my shammy just cause i'd probably get pwn'd, but he is getting some HUGE heals too. either way well done

  • this is guys is awesome and after the say "shaman can not tanking"

    i think is video show thas shaman can tank and very good!!!! XD

    

  • Nice, we have also a tank shaman on Todeswache :)

  • i bet the healers lose hairs tryna heal him

  • I guess since my disc priest can cast a bubble on himself and take a hit that makes him a tank as well.

  • ....duh you'll still get crit hitted even with 99% chance to stop crit hits >.< no matter what something can always crit hit you

  • @ both Bob and martinio

    look up how to tank as a mage on google wowwiki tells all XD

  • there are two different types of tanks Primary tanks : Pally,dk,warrior, and druid

    then there are secondary tanks who used to be able to tank and still could now that  reforging is out :Mage,Rogue,Shaman,Warlock of course those secondary tanks usually have to be stacking resiliance and have massive avoidance

  • @TheKraziak >stacking resilience >pve

    Just how much do you know about this game?

  • @bobmuffins Way way way to much XD

  • @TheKraziak

    Have you ever played this game? Warlocks can't tank unless meta is up, and even then they're super squishy, and mages simply can't tank.

  • @martinio look it up on google "How to tank as a mage"

  • @TheKraziak Resilence doesn't mean diddly in PVE. You can be lvl 80 and have 1400+ resilence (Resil cap then I BELIEVE) but you'll still get crit hitted. People use to do this to mount run Heroics during Burning Crucade. That's LONG been changed. Heck with my PVP Enhancement gear, I have like a 22% chance or not getting crit hitted abut I STILL get crit hitted in both PVP & PVE.

  • tbh a mage could tank if was able to keep aggro because a well geared mage in icc with the 30% buff has like 40k hp maybe more and marrowgar will not hit that hard and the healers will bring him right back up

  • Hey Shari are there any changes to us since Cata? I haven't noticed besides using Rockbiter (+30% threat and 5% Shield block or something like that). So far SS/FS seem to work with Fire NOva on Magma totem. I mean we get near limitless mana now and Shamanistic Rage cleanes us.

  • also all the people who are bad mouthing their dps, this is a few weeks after the first patch for icc, so gear is from toc and maybe uldaur, they dont have armor the bought with justice points in the last week of wotlk so sshh ignorant people

  • OMG WTF We Kill elites in 10 min All

  • there highest DPS was 4.8k....thats LOW...but go go shaman tank just like in vanilla wow xD

  • @kyle7geddes Just a side note, He had healing done not DPS in the recount lolz.

  • What Health do u have?!:D

  • soo cool

  • For those saying he is "just taking cleaves"

    that for 1 means he is equally as srong as a tank in defence/survivability

    and check his other videos where he actually does tank the boss himself, or stfu.

  • fail shammy

  • All of you saying this is easy or you could do better can go fuck yourselves, I bet not even one of you could pull this off

  • your just taking the cleaves...my fury warrior could do that...next

  • @Toast579 im always doing him like this, if im not the maintank in this fight

  • lol my lvl 70 rogue makes better dps

  • @Flammon1 the recount is showing healing done lol i wanna see your rogue heal

  • @1stgerard Actually rogues got Recupterate :p

  • @Flammon1 you notice that he's a tank right?

  • @Flammon1 stupid retard rofl

  • fail.... a mage can soak his hits, its 10 man NORMAL. rofl

  • @mankykid1 Note this is before the 5%-buff.

    Try to do that without the buff, and see who is failing.

  • eh not really tankng..just taking damage of marrowgars hits

  • @narutorasengantube the main tank is also just taking damage of his hits you know

  • @HPEJuggalo93 wrong. the main tank is holding aggro and guiding marrow gar around. the shaman has less aggro then anyone. a pvp holy pally could have done the same role

  • este cochino mundo esta de cabeza O.o

  • Not really tanking. You're holding no threat on Marrowgar - It's just like.. soaking.

  • how da fuck can u tank as a shaman? :O

  • Look at his Omen on 2:55. U can see the paladin have full aggro. He just get damaged by cleaving. Fail

  • @Safferfrede Saberlashes hit for 300% of marrowgars dmg so each tank gets hit for 35k (w/o any dmg reduction, /w armor bout 15k or less) constantly

  • @Safferfrede Uhm... You know that you need an offtank for Marrow right? And so what, he is still tanking, and ive seen other vids where he is MT. Personaly, I wouldnt go with a shammy tank, since they lack some avoidence stats.

  • I have tanked OS as a shaman right before ulduar came out not the conventional way as to using a sheild but 2 1 handers just need to stack crit and build frost shock into your rotation and you can hold aggro on nearly anything and all you need to be careful of is using your shamnistic rage and spirit wolves at the right time cant use them at same time and you need a good healer pref pally with a couple of druid hots on you

  • @blackjoker718 that was when PvP gear effected everything.

  • He doesn't even use a fucking weapon enchant till the boss + pvp gear = super low stats for holding aggro, a 3k dps'r could pull off him, since there both DPS classes, your stupid like no joke if you think this is real

  • @shinoownage frostshock generates aditional aggro

  • @shinoownage some things that prove you are an idiot:go search this guy's name in the us armory and you will find it.It's commonly known that chars on private servers aint displayed on the official wow armory.Second,shamans have had some tanking talents since level 60.At some point till Kara they could server as OTs.So i find it quite logical if ppl loved this and still want to explore the tanking side of shamans.If the guy can find others willing to tag along with him on this,wtf's ur problem.

  • @antonis2211 Back in vanilla shamans also had a taunt ability

  • @julenissegangsta y i know and i have seen something about shammies getting taunt again at cata in some forums which would be sweet but i dont know how this would work since some of the current "tanking" talents get removed from enhance tree...still it would be nice to see shamans as MTs :p (being an enhance myself that is,dps though).Not to mention that specced stoneskin totem stacks with prot aura which means more dmg reduction ;).Still this guy's amazing for doing this!At many raids/inst too!

  • @antonis2211 Would love to see shammy tanks in cata :D But I think the chance for that isnt so good, but let's hope ^^

  • Also, it makes it look like it doesn't get reduced crit from players, but the description is missleading, or else druid tanks could just skip the talent and get shit loads of health from pvp gear. AND he holds aggro on everything??? Frost shock is the only thing that can help with aggro

  • This is fake, resilience only reduces crit chance and damage reduction against players, this is a private server. If you don't believe me read the description, hes not defense capped nor crit immune and could get 1 shot

  • @shinoownage u r dumb mate ...... :P

  • @cod5lover1 I give sound logic and that makes me dumb. WOW some people are retarded

  • @shinoownage

    I play on a private server and marrowgar not have fire and not move in Bone storm ;)

    I think this is Official Server

  • @SexBombEOL you can program boss fights... alot of people make there own servers just to make new boss fights... L2Script and its not that bad. I've made marrowgar throw fireballs everyonce in a while, its pretty fun when you get used to it

  • @shinoownage

    yes, but the Scripts never are exactly with the Official Server (Except TBC/Vanilla/WOTLK 5man HC) instances

  • name of the music group??

  • nice !

  • hes not tanking hes only standing next to the tank? he is sharing the damage, the offtanks job here is to share damage. gj and keep it up.

  • @laz3484

    Yeah because every mob in ICC has cleave.. that was just stupid what you said..

  • you and your healers are pro xD

  • Rockbiter will increases threat and using "unleash weapon" with it on it taunts :)

  • great clip. have some of you people checked out the wow cheats pack from warcraftbotsXinfo (replace X with .) ? it is astounding, i recently down loaded it. its got absolutely everything in it, gold guides, bots, hacks, glitches as well as the new arena glitch. i probably should not reveal to folks about it but at least this gives you all a fair chance to dl it before i pwn you all

  • There are a bunch of people on here saying he's not tanking. Obviously they don't know what a tank does. A tank takes all the hits so the rest of the raid doesn't fail. This shaman is a tank during this boss fight because he is taking the cleave. For this specific fight, threat doesn't matter to be a tank unless you are the MT.

  • yeahno. the sham isnt tanking. the pally, Ouchies, is. Sharicasmi actually has the 2nd lowest threat and is just standing next to tank. nice try/fail

  • @whabba92 as watching this is was going to try and disprove ur comment but its tru. i was staring at marrowgars main target and it was the pali.

  • @whabba92 It's my understanding that you need 2 tanks to stand in front of Marrowgar to split the damage of cleave, that would explain why he's standing next to the MT. Plus, he never claimed to MT Marrowgar, but he did on the trash which is pretty good for a shammy.

  • @whabba92 if you watch the video carefully you'll see he's not using frostshock on marrowgar instead he's using earth shock this is because he knows he doesn't need high threat to take the Saber Lashes he just has to stand in the way, thus he's trying to do as much dps as possible while staying in his tanking gear and spec so he can live through the lashes

  • @whabba92 also hes throwing out instant heals to people who need it

  • @whabba92 lol u stupid?

  • just a quick question: is the focus/cameraman of the video supposed to be the tank? cuz the cameraman and the target of marrowgar are 2 different chars. the cameraman seems to hav full health all fight, while the tank is frequently going up and down. the tank looks like a pally, and omen seems to confirm this.

  • Lol, that's pretty sick dude, i didn't think shaman's could tank, i know that they did pre-bc but i didn't think it possible at 80. also, wtf?

  • @sixteenseven321 Don't think you're wrong. Check that aggro meter again, he's second lowest, rofl.

  • next time mage tank

  • That druid standing there is supposed to be behind marrow so cleave eill not hit him

  • He is only tanking the trash and not tanking the boss. Face it this kids fail.

  • @OiYaGreasykent

    So, the 12-13k hits on him is what? when hes at marrowgar.

  • @swennor1 OiYaGreasykent fails at life. He's probably thinking it's Marrowgars AOE#. Dog knows how broken his AOE is.

    Don't feed the trolls man. Other than that, those slashes fucking SUCK.

  • what totems u use?

  • @torell95secto I'm not Sharicasmi but it depends on teh sistuation. AOE's get Stoneclaw (There's a glyph that aids us w/ a shield) or Strength of the Earth/Stoneskin (again preference here, I use Stoneskin to reduece damage some more) Searing for single/Magma for group, Windfury or Grounding depending on casting VS melee and water doesn't matter, HP I guess. But all shamen tanks are different, I'm still perfecting it myself. I'm on Turalyon as "Lotous"

  • If you look at omen the pally is tanking. Shammy isn;t tanking shit. FAIL

  • @GrimScout0001 He may be sharing the damage with the tank from the frontal cleave but...thats it.

  • WTF SHAMMY TANK

  • @boobookittyshit We're epic win.

  • Hey so how do u def cap a shammy?

  • @Bowpk619 Shaman tanks do not aim for Defense, we aim for Stamina, get Tank Banks, Necks, Rings & Trinkets, and if anything get dodge. We do however require very good heals so we don't get one shotted constantly.

  • @Bowpk619 right now any one can be def capped using resilience, but cat is changing crit chance reduction to crit dmg reduction, which is the ONLY thing stopping shamans from tanking in cat effectivly, with new spells and talent reductions n all

  • Enchace Shammy's could tank in classic. Its still possible, but requires skill, which this guy has.

  • You aren't tanking anything in that marrowgar fight.....

  • @MCNyundo

    You have plate

    Shaman has mail.

    You phfail.

  • @mjaaa93 ähm i know??? cO But the difference of plate and mail is so low ...

    there is the matter -.-

    u ugly idiot cO and he is the 2nd tank ... So nix with "Shaman tanks Lord Marrowgar Icecrown 10man"

  • Comment removed

  • btw, what are your two add-ons you got on in the video?

  • God... a Shaman tank.. thats epic :p wearing mail while tanking :p

  • @0neFunnyDude OMG not impressive as a druid tank who only wears leather!!!!1 QQ

  • Are you even holding aggro? Becasue looking at what Marrowgar is targeting, its that pally in ur group...The Shammy is just stacked on the tank. Your tanking the Trash is all I see (which is still cool for shammy in ICC 10) but to say your tanking Marr dosnt really look like it.

  • @TheObicha off tanking mon,you know,sharing the cleave damage.

  • @TheObicha You moron lol, look at his health :p

  • i see that u hold aggro but how?, no taunts or anything, correct me if im wrong cos ive never played a shammy past 10 lol

  • @thedon367 i think he uses frost shock im not sure either

  • 2 mins theire all fighting the spider and only 2 of you pwned the ghoul too cool i have a warrior tank(full gladiator) but after seeing this vid... WHOA Shammys are way cooler and more intresting to play :D i made one thx p.s. what's ur wep good luck :D
  • my question is about how your damage reduction from armor is? do you enchant it with defense?

  • i'd like to try this, so how much resilience is defense caped?

  • OP healers :S

  • OP healers (?)

  • Sharicasmi stop being so damn awesome. Before I quit I had to try it on my shaman. I got up to tanking ToC 10 man. Stop breaking the shaman class. XD

  • @TheBlackmage4789 Frost shock bro frost shock

  • im confused! what if u lost agro what do u use? then

  • *gasm*

    /jealous

  • Notice all the skeletons on the ground during the marrowgar part? I think some raid group wiped alot ;)

  • @Kloen27 its easy frost shock :P and if e pills its gif him threated the whole fight

  • This is sick! It must be a blast to watch you! ty for sharing.

  • Just curious. Would this be viable for leveling?

    As in Instance tanking prior to level 80?

  • @Nixxen Unfortunately not. Shaman Tanking is VERY difficult as we have difficulty grabbing aggro. Where as the tank classes have Taunts, shamen do not. Stoneclaw Totem taunts every so often but not when you exactly need it. I've done some Shaman Tanking as Enhancement. It's a lot of fun, but your healers will need to geared nicely and you'll need atleast one Hunter to use Misdirecting Shot on you.

  • I keep telling people shamans can tank but they rarely let me try

  • @cloudx2266 YOu'd have to be geared like Shari to be given a chance. But beause we're not a plate wearing class or a class with a talent that'll make us uncrittable, we'll never be taken seriously for shaman tanking. I'll be making a shaman tank set, I got a few rings and trinkets so far, nothing fantastic.

  • @jreyno92

    still tho i checked his armory and his def is like in the 400s. also i thought resil only took away crit rating from other players

  • @loopers22 Some PVP offres +Dodge or Parry. SOme PVP also offers more stamina than most if not all raid/tier gear offers. His has the bare minimal HP required for a tank just entering ICC. Nevertheless Shaman Tanking is fun. His defense as of 6/7/20 id 471,

  • you didnt tank the boss if you look at what its targeting its always the pally :/

  • @xperdit1onx Look at his portrait, he has aggro the entire time. He may not be the single target tank for the boss himself, but he is tanking.

  • i dont really know anything about shamans but arent you way under the def cap? how can you not be one shotted by these bosses?

  • it really dosnt matter if he's a shaman or a priest. u have enough threat on something with the right talents and enchants u can tank aswell.. imo this video is nothing special.. as u can see on his screen his hp was going down VERY fast, it was only the amazing healers in group keeping him alive. no real talent on the shamans behalf. really. if u want to flame this go ahead, but i can take dmg to help the main tank out, and im a holy paladin.. (RF FTW?)

  • I want my shaman for this role... <3

  • Your videos are really awesome and an inspiration to shamans everywhere. My home server was chromaggus, though I'm not there anymore, and I remember seeing you guys around.

  • first of all... he wasn't MT... he was following the tank around cause of his saber lash ability... second... he's wearing pvp gear... is why he's not taking crushing blows

  • lol ... look at the aggro meter ... you have 15% aggro ... Ouchis tank the boss [FAIL]

  • nice tanking bud. never knew shammies had it in em. What was the attack the use that can generate threat? i remember ther was one but i forgot the name.

  • On your maelstrom 5 stacks, do you used lightning bolt or Healing wave?

  • Just a noob question, How do you not receive crushing blows?

  • WHATS HIS ARMORY LINK!!!!!!

  • @TylerSkater14

    seriously? do you really need someone to armory him for you? hell you can even google his name and it comes up.

  • Though I am thoroughly impressed with the ability of this shamans tanking, I have to point out that he didnt tank marrowgar. he just soaked damage which is still pretty cool and unexpected from shamans since WoTLK. Notice the targets target frame. The boss never targets Shari, which means he's just there to soak damage and most likely cant hold threat.. Anyway, I 'd like to see him MT this boss. Theres a ton of potential there. GG Shari, I think I might have to try that on my shammy alt.

  • Hey Shari^^ good to see you still tanking. i havent had the account up since sept. keep kicking ass XD. For all the doubters/haters out there. this dude is legit and has been tanking since BC. hell, since vanilla when shammys were supposed to tank lol

  • If you look at the threat meter the pali has it the entire time. . . shaman is 6 or 7th on agro most the boss battle.

  • I don't understand how you hold aggro but its pretty sweet

  • they weere stacking on the aplly the whole time...a plate dps could pull it off if they know what the fuck to do :P

  • you on Chromaggus EU or US? i want to armoury you as im interested in rolling a shammy tank myself =D thanks .x

  • @blindingsun you'll find me on US chromaggus. visit my youtube site for a complete listing of my tanks armory urls

  • @sharicasmi My computer is being a piece of shit. Is Cormaggus PVP or PVE?

  • @sharicasmi aww dude i would have loved to play with you i was on chromag but moved to skywall.. my name was sinsation

  • Laugh my ass off at people just joining the guild. Alright who's the main tank tonight? Our shaman ...what? yea man, he's good. Did you just say shaman? lol

  • @baardock People say the same thing when I tank Heroics and regs. I manage to hold aggro as long as I got a Hunter Misdirecting to me, just to help hold aggro. But it is funny when I pug a raid like ICC10 or TOC that people say "WTF? A shaman tank? LOL SCRUBMAN!" and show off that I can tank just fine when the other tanks are getting B-rezzed.

  • keep it up guarantee you'll get a shammy taunt one day, and mail tanking gear ;)

  • Hey Shari, are you going to keep shaman tanking come Cata? Should be fun. I have a shaman myself, and I'm working on building up a tank set too. I mean I've done some shaman tanking in the past, I liked it. But I checked out your armory and I've got a LONG way to go.

    Keep up the good work. HOPEFULLY one day Blizzard will give into to the fact we want to tank god damnit. Give us a anti-crit hit for PVE come cataclysm Blizzard.

    Good job on the video too. I like the song.

  • @RealGateGuardian I doubt I could find a link, but it was about 5-6 months ago. I think it was Ghostcrawler, but don't quote me on it. Basically he said Blizzard wasn't really planning to make Shaman tank, but they didn't 100% rule it out. So, it's POSSIBLE, but I don't know how probable.

  • @damnyourestupid Yeah I know what mean. It's tough to find some things. I do remember hearing that myself. When you said "5 or 6 months ago" I remember reading the same thing. They really don't WANT to make us a Tanking Class, but if you read the forums, we want to Tank/DPS/Healer class ourself like Paladins and Druids.

  • I mean if we continue to post videos like this on youtube and the forums and just keep bring up the fact we want to be Shaman tanks, I think they'll give in. I mean if the Alliance had the Winterspring Frost Saber, the Horde belly ached until they were given the Venonhide Raptor, and again people complained until they gave you the Bloodsail Admiral title when you did the two quests.

  • @RealGateGuardian Althought theres a small chance of it ever happening theres always a chance. I don't see it happening in Cataclysm, but any xpac after that. It might be a last ditch effort to keep people playing wow, but who knows. I agree, more videos will lead to actual tanking talents, or nerfs beyond reason lol, either way, it'll be affecting our gameplay somehow.

  • @damnyourestupid Indeed there is a chance, however small it may be, it's still a chance. It probably won't happen in Cata unless Sharicasmi uploads a video of him/her tanking Heroic Arthas (10 or 25, preferably 25) successfully without causing a wipe.

  • @RealGateGuardian Even if he tanks Arthas on Heroic, I still don't see it happening this expansion unless they've already got it in the works, which I doubt. If we keep pushing and show them that it wouldn't take a lot of change to merge ele or enhance with tanking talents, maybe we'll get there one day. We can always dream :D

  • obviously if you use 3 healers...who 3 heals?

  • @MrToy86 those that have dps that do enough dmg to make up for the extra dps lost and want to be safe if lag or something hits someone?

  • He's just eating saberlashes. Now if he tanks Festergut I will be impressed.

  • @eethomp i tryd was ok at start but found it to hard to get bac aggro cause retared pally went all out as tank:( kept my aggro over all other dps so with better co-orination with other tank and well timed cds(and better shield) think i mite b able just need to get fraps:)

  • You're all looking at this in a wrong way. Telling him to do the fight another way, everything he does is wrong, his bla bla bla. It's a shaman tanking, I mean how cool isn't that? Long I've been waiting to see someone testing this out and he does it perfectly. Sure his not main tanking the boss. But assist tanking. And his tanking trash as well. I want to say very nice job and you bring enhancement a good reputation! 5 stars no doubt! Keep posting tanking videoes!

  • You're an idiot. Did you try checking his armory?

  • Have you ever done this fight? The OT is there to soak up saber lashes...

  • @FosckoDmaw You obviously don't know how this fight works. Fucking retard.

  • @FosckoDmaw have you ever heard of an off tank? most likely no cuzz you are probably in a fail guild stuck in toc 10 man cuzz you use 1 tank. He is tanking several of the trash mobs which would own a dps if they tried to tank it and he is getting hit by saberlashed for 8ks every second or so. He is holding threat and staying alive. That is all that counts.

  • @FosckoDmaw You're epic fucking fail. Go back to five mans. Come back when you learn about ICC boss first scrub.
