Shadow Priest Tanking - Moroes

This is a video on tanking raid bosses as a Shadow Priest.

Achieved on a live server by the guild Everlastin Goblinstomper (Uldaman-US; Horde) on 10/11/2008. The Shadow Priest tank is Eeden.

Music: OverClocked Remix - Mazedude - "Blood Bath"


Things of note -- I maintain second-of-threat the entire fight. To be honest this one was spur of the moment and I wasn't exactly sure that it would be possible. I wasn't sure if I could do it (which I proved myself wrong when successfully tanking Curator). So I maintain second on threat and tank the adds with Moroes. PvP trinket equipped to remove the Hammer of Justice off of the Retribution Paladin (Baron Rafe Dreuger).

How this is possible -- A very precise spec (18/0/43), lots of PvP gear, and a competent raid group. The basic premise of how it works is: armor value and dodge. You still have to be uncrittable (although uncrushability is an impossibility for a Priest due to cloth itemization) and at least 12k health is almost required. You need to be able to survive the crushes that are coming your way. Power Word: Shield and Inner Fire need to be kept up as much as possible. Touch of Weakness is amazing for damage mitigation. On top of all of this you still need to be able to do enough DPS to maintain adequate threat as well as a capped spell hit rating.

I had around 290 Resilience, 371 or so Defense Rating, and around 11% dodge. I also had around 820 spell damage and was a little overcapped on spell hit.

Thanks for watching! =)
Sorry about the bad video quality, I don't have the most sleek and awesome computer =(

Hmm your UI looks.. special:P

Gogo get bartender its a very easy addon

I would recomment you change some settings

You have the raid already on your screen so why show party.

It actually has little to do with my UI as it is just the graphics. I have a PoS computer =(

If you read the comment you would understand this video better. So go read it, not repeating myself in a comment.

First of all, you obviously didn't watch the Attumen or the Curator videos. This was done spur of the moment and I wasn't sure if I could actually -tank- the boss. Second of all, you obviously didn't read my comments, as that would have explained you saying I suck. Third, I obviously know more about the class than you do. Why? Because if I didn't know what I was doing, I couldn't have done what I did in the videos.

I'm -purposely- pulling agro, in other words. Ya know, tanking.
