    This being said- you can main tank just fine as I tend to run main tank over my FC's paladin tank, but what you need to understand is they are designed to pull more enmity and soak more damage than you. Where you can go against the grain is how you utilize your abilities which make you surpass the paladin tank in *every* aspect *for 15-30 seconds* on a 90-180 second rotation- the trick is knowing when you need to surpass them and having a paladin willing to throttle back on their enmity generation to focus instead on stuns... just remember that their role ISN'T damage so the fights aren't catered for 2 tanks with a few exceptions in the coils.

    Note the "paladin willing to throttle back on their enmity generation" part of my post. Holding aggro over them for 15 seconds is nice, but if they just take it back afterward kind of pointless, hmm?

    If you really want the answer to this pm me, I won't recite the rotation as the macro-hating troll will fail at recreating it and cry.
