Even though The Rambling Bear probably gets tons upon tons more traffic than I do, I think this is worth sharing.

Tank Shortage: Do You Believe?

Today’s post isn’t really a blog post at all. I just got done with a forum post in the Prophecy boards discussing what seems to be a growing problem: the dreaded tanking shortage. I used to not believe there was a shortage, but since I started playing level 70 alts, I’ve gotten to see things from a different perspective. In fact, I think the existance of alts, itself, is perhaps the biggest contributor to the problem. . . but I’ll explain that later. So, here in its entirety, the seven reasons I see for the apparent tank shortage in Prophecy, on Steamwheedle Cartel, and I suspect in general.

    I am a feral druid and have recently been off tanking za. I have a problem though, during the eagle gauntlet i am always assigned to tank the two warrior adds that spawn. Problem is they always stun me before i can get aggro and go on to happily beat the healers. When i become unstunned i try to pick them both up but by then at least one has insane dps aggro on it. I have thought about being evil and postioning myself ahead of two people so they get stunned instead of me but i dont know if that would work any tips?
