Death Knight AOE Tanking (4.0.1)

This is a video I made of AOE Tanking on the PTR (Build 4.0.1)
2 Utgarde Keep Packs (7+ Mobs Each)
1 DTK Pack (10+ Mobs)
1 DTK Pack (Boss + 7 Mobs)
And the entire ramp/tunnel of H.POS.

This works the same way in the other Heroics, and ICC as well (10 or 25)

[exphryl]

@Beserker11777 It's ok. They made up for it by buffing the living piss out of Balance and Resto.

I have been a blood dk tank for about a year now with around 6.1k gs if u really care about gear, and i must say, im in love with the new blood boil animation and spec, too bad my installer is acting up to an extent that i havnt got my patch set up yet :(

[exphryl]

@rasenganedchidori  Sad thing is, I randomly spam BB when I have no mobs around just because of the graphic.....

[Bleudiamond]

the funny part is...why i like being a dk tank...if you look at recount....hes like second or either first on the damage done meter...hahaahhaahahah..makes me laugh. I leveled unholy tank..than pulled my head out...and went frost. Only things by having this new blood tanking tree for me is that im going dps with my dk now..and tanking...so....hopefully...th­is turns out to be good...from the looks of it...it looks pretty cool.

@Bleudiamond Hard to see but in the big pull in DTK I was at 24K Dps for a few seconds ;) Finished off at 18.

@hellomate639 No ive tanked high lvl instances before fine. But its just my health. The only time i'll die is either cause the healer sucks. And my gear at the moment is average but just right for tanking. I think all i need is a little more gear and i should be fine. And i manage to gather enough threat and hold my aggro perfecty fine.

[hellomate639]

@TheMarudin

Then maybe DKs shouldn't tank high level instances? I mean, a shield will increase your armor by 20-25%ish, which will decrease damage taken by an additional 10-15% and you can block.

I dunno, I think warriors will always be the best one vs. one tanks and right now they can apply rend with thunderclap, making AoE pretty good if you can build threat right off the bat. Prot warriors are a very tough kill.

@hellomate639 Dk's cant use shields?

[hellomate639]

@TheMarudin

Your gear sucks/your healers suck? You're not using a shield? If none of those are the case then how could it be your fault?

Miss old blood boil animation

[TheMarudin]

I have a problem. Im a dk tank and i can hold aggro fine. But its just that i cant survive at all. Can anyone help me

[GuyN0ir]

@exphryl That still won't matter, bear tanking was made even harder than before. Especially before 81 when we get thrash. (Although I'm not complaining about the new Resto xD)

[Thunderbeater159]

@exphryl Mine wont do that animation or anything what should i do

[Elliotptrials]

@ihsanduzgun LOL...umm, thats xperl. He's put a different texture on the bar though i think. ^^
