"Best Tank" for each boss

Let's have a discussion like this when fights actually get hard

LoL, a paladin tank!

Grobbulus

I'm gonna go w/ Pally-tank on Loatheb, as well.

Our second week killing him, they just have 1 healer assigned to me and had the rest of the Holy Pally's (we bring 3???) "DPS".

For Kelthuzad anyone can MT though paladins are amazing for picking him up after he drops aggro. All of his frostbolts should be interrupted and he hits melee for maybe 5k and not very often.

On gluth your two tanks should be rotating the boss between them and we have a Hunter/mage/dk kite the adds. Prot warriors are good kiters as well with their aoe stun being on a shorter cooldown.

For loatheb I agree that a paladin is best as we can block every attack.

For malygos a druid or DK would probably handle the breaths easier but we don't have a full time feral tank and no DK tank so I do that.

For patch your least geared tank should do it with your best geared (IE more stam/armor) should OT.

The only things I don't MT are Patch and Anub'rhekan as an intervene does make the swarm much easier to handle.

My issue had nothing to do with MT damage; in terms of mitigating Loatheb, yes, we do extremely well. My point is I went DRY on him, and unless there is an aggro mechanic I don't know about, this makes me very scared about DPS grabbing aggro from me.

I kept mana up quite easily just using Divine Plea on cooldown and just doing ShoR, HotR and JoL. When/if you get low, just LoH yourself, its not like you need to save it /shrug.

The only fight I haven't MT'd is Anub'rekan. Why, because I'm stellar at add control, with exorcsim to bring em to me, then a stun, and a holy wrath, I lock them up like your 80 year old grandma with no prune juice.

Could I, sure I could, but why, the warrior has the kite down, I have the add control down, don't screw with a good thing IMO.

Everything else that doesn't require 2 tanks I pretty well manage.

Now having T7 helm and Thane's (both in same night) I'm solid on all fronts, a nice dodge/parry/block helm and T7 helm for a nice block piece (gemmed one with defense and the other with stam).

I can honestly say, I could pass on damn near everything cept a weapon and I wouldn't mind one bit.

Tank it all, its all undead, and you can absolutely obliterate it all without issue.

Tanked Malygos-10 tonight, finally got the right mix of healers, and we killed him about 7-10 seconds into the enrage, that fight makes me wanna punch babies, seriously.

This week start working on Sartharion with adds up. So far, love the fights, but doing Naxx10 and 25 every week is gonna feel burned out after awhile I imagine, so at least doing Sarth is an escalating challenge level.
