    Paladin new to Turn 8 post 2.4

    I don't know if the guides online are suitable for patch 2.4. Is there any key mechanics as a tank for the new patch, btw I am also new to the Turn, but I've been reading the mechanics online; The Biotowers, Mines, Dreads, DR towers, etc..

    Can someone contemplate a guide here or link me to any existing guide post 2.4.

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    The new patch didn't bring anything new to the fight as it didn't change much in it either.
    So old guides still apply.

    Pull dreads, pop mines on your half of the field and hit the tower behind you when it pops during the final phase.

    It's a zzzzzzz fest for a tank. Save your CDs for dreads. Use convalescence for mines.

    Yep, nothing you have to do is changed. Charging a tower(on the very rare occasion that you would have to do it) will do less damage, as will popping mines. Otherwise, try not to touch those cooldowns unless a Dread is present. In which case, I recommend this rotation:

    Dread 1: Rampart and Bulwark.
    Dread 2: Rampart and Sentinel.
    Dread 3: Rampart and Bulwark. If you even fight it.

    If you ever feel in danger otherwise, you can use Convalescence or Foresight at your own volition. Bonus points garnered for a Monk who drops Mantra on you during a Dread though.

    I've not done T8 in duty finder yet. But as mentioned same mechanics , you may want to ask the person handling brain Jack if they are new to stand at tip of avatars little tail as that is the best spot so that they don't get bleed effect and avatar doesn't spin around
