Times never change...
http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/threa ... 7917&sid=1
I was digging around and I found this old post on the official forums by Lore.
It is an interesting point of reference for two things - to see how much times have changed and how little times have changed.
Things that are fixed (to some extent):
Itemisation
Fear Ward
Things that are not yet fixed:
Dispellable Righteous Fury
Silences/Mana Drains
We take more damage
Of Lore's suggestions things that have been implemented:
Fear issues
Itemisation
Bloated tree (WOTLK only)
Things that haven't...
Dispellable RF
No way to deal with silence
Spell Damage based mitigation... well sort of
I'm pretty happy overall with the shape of the class and where it has come from. Given that silences and mana burns will not be directed at tanks any more, it appears that the only real differences between paladins and the rest will be threat and mitigation. To me this is ok, because these are just numbers which can be tweaked. Hopefully sooner rather than later, but as long as they eventually get fixed I'll be happy.

Mobs I can kinda tank in a pinch but have aggro troubles on due to MY OWN HORRIBLE DEATH.

Deathknights have a talent for that.
Would be pro if we had a similar one.

Undying Protector
When you die you come back as a protecting angel for 45s.
This angel would have the ability to taunt, consecrate, holy shield and holy shock.
Would be quite fun

I love using mighty mod powers on the board I moderate. They make one strong.

I thought you were goofing off with an alliance deathknight...?! (Well... scourge strike's busted this build, so I guess I can understand not having points in unholy.)Lore wrote:I'm still angry that they haven't implemented a way for me to tank as a corpse on the ground.
