seeing all these total newbie tank is hilarious

For the third time in this thread, I will say that Overpower/Flash spam IS SITUATIONAL. Sometimes, I get the synched down DPS that can AE like maniacs, so my job shifts to AE enmity instead of following "The Perfect Rotation As Specified

The only situation where you would need to spam overpower to keep aggro is if you are undergeared.


No dps will be able to rip aggro if you play war right with buffs and are around the same gear level. Simple. If you are needing to OP spam to hold aggro id reccommend checking your rotation and seeing where you can improve.


Flash is 99% useless and the 1% time it isnt is for emergency situations that were caused by the tanks own blunder (getting pacified shortly before a horde of enemies spawn).


Other than that, i guess you could just use it for extra "why not" padding during pacification, but its generally useless. Ive had flash on my war up to lvl 45 before i realized i never use it, and i dont miss it.

i understand you dont have war at 60 yet, and perhaps you didnt have a longtime lvl 50 war during ARR, so the learning process is still in effect for you, but once you get more accustomed to war, you will find yourself as well, almost never or if ever, using flash.
