probably my biggest grief over AD isnt from large spike dmg ignoring the ability, but more due to the retiveness of the healers. personally i'll see either alot of topping off heals on me or alot of big heals hit when i'mlose
to 50%. maybe im being naive or ignorant. i just dont see AD being as efftive as it sounds. obviously you are going to remember the times that it DID save your ass. but how many times did it NOT? how
many timesould you have used moreonsistent mitigation instead? how many times would a preemptive heal been more efftive? im a huge fan of spamming smaller heals and i think as a tank i sometimes expt my MH to do the same. however, im probably in the minority when itomes to this. the one awesome thing about AD is the ability toontrol ioming spell dmg as well as physal. this is probably huge when aoe tanking, sie to mobs will hit faster and for less. also aoe dmg tend toome from all dirtions, not always in blk range. i would beurious to see the real efft on dropping AD fully.
A lot depends on what you're tanking I would think. AOE tanking all of
ZA I see my fare share of times that ADomes into play. I saw itome into play numerous times AOE tanking Hyjal trash too. For big bosses thatan leap over AD, I'm sure you wouldn't see mh differee if any by removing that talent from your build. Itan be deribed as a situational talent for sure, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't take it. Base it off what you will be tanking.
That's the "Worldi" sp @ the Maintankadinommunity. The pros andons have been kked around and diussed there for quite a while now. I took a look at it myself. I found that it did give a bit of a threat boost but all thingsonsidered I wasn't happy with what
I had to give up to hieve that. Ftor in that on the vast majority of casions we bring a token Ret pally with us and it's a total waste for me. Those raid leaders whoan't justify bringing another
goodmedire DPSer an generallyompete well with Shadow Priests) for a signifant boost in raid performae are missing something. How are Hunters even able to DPS without JoWis being renewed either by 2 pallies whking at the target or arusader Strike?
