Learning Post - Tank AoE Rotation (Paladin & Warrior)

[chidarake]

what he means by shield lob all is as your running you select your next target and shield lob it then next and so on, that first pack is spaced just enough to allow this perfectly in snowcloak.

personally I do that snowcloak pull a little dif, as once I have them all together I swing back through them flash then hit hallowed ground, flash through its duration since I don't have to dodge anything then move using sentinel and convalescence, by this time everything is pretty much dead and so shouldn't need any further cool downs. allowing me to use some on next boss which btw has enough time that you can cycle through them and they will recharge in time for next set of pulls.


in your gear you shouldn't have any issues holding to aoe even with better geared people, chances are your flashes may be missing a few enemies if the pack is a little spread out, your rotation seems solid enough, you could flash a few more times before starting mp regen or hate combo to give yourself a bigger margin if your feeling its a little to close but as stated above in another post hitting each enemy on the way with a lob or flash will help you a lot in keeping that agro.

ultimately so long as they don't get away and they die in time it doesn't matter where others are in comparison to your hate. so long as you were no1 the whole time

I'd recommend going as dps to watch other tanks at work if you can. yes you'll see bad ones but you should see the good ones too, both of which will teach you things from observation alone. also a lot of it comes from just knowing each dungeon and knowing how you want to do things, dps and healers will fall inline with your pulls, once your really familiar with any dungeon you run you can mix it up push yourself and the others to keep up. all part of the fun of tanking
