    Unless you believe you can survive Mountain Busters w/o it. Which hasn't been my experience. Even using Flash to blind him right before, I don't see any way for an appropriately leveled Paladin to tank Titan without Shield Oath. And that's true for several other boss encounters.

    This thread seems to be getting a lot of trolling because it's in the General Discussion. There is a similar post in the tanking section which has a lot of good ideas, too and I think the devs should read it as well.
