Quote:Find a way to squeeze Improved Shield Block inte]o your spec. Not very useful for trash, but it's handy against bosses.Yeah, I'm getting that at level 63 if I do my planned build.
Quote:Late Prot brings a great deal of useful abilities to the table; Shield Slam is a great method of doing a little extra DPS and causes a solid amount of hate, which means it's usually the first attack I use after a taunt if Revenge isn't available. Concussion Blow is a stun, and we know what that's useful for. Devastate allows you to put out some extra DPS along with some extra threat, and it's very handy for when you need to offtank (Devastate spammage!)I'm really considering full Prot at some point. I did it once back when I thought I was going to have the opportunity to raid on my last Warrior. I liked it for tanking but being impotent outside of a group was annoying. They appear to have somewhat fixed that with the new talents.
Quote:Personally though, I really enjoyed having these later protection talents: Concussion Blow (great utility for interrupting a caster about to heal himself), Improved Shield Bash (100% silence; useful for pulls where there's a caster you need to drag back), Shield Slam (the dispel came in very handy when tanking Lor'khan, to remove his Lightning Shield), Focused Rage (you really notice the 3 rage reduction on all your skills), and Devastate provides actual DPS when you're done sundering an enemy you're tanking.Again, full Prot really interests me.
Either of you guys (or anyone else) mind sharing your full Prot builds?
