[Terenas] -- Tuesday Karazhan 24th

[Sinomin]

This has one additional healer than we're used to. Healers may need to do add some DPS in places, we'll see how it goes. With some extra healers we may be moving around Moors role (a little more tanking) and Sham's role too (a little more DPS).

I have been working on my tanking gear, Im still about 10% short of the ideal defensive stats. As long as I have 30pts in Holy I will always be about 5% short (no Parry talent). I assumed that on mobs less than lvl 73 I wouldnt be taking any Crushing Blows and my defenses should mitigate most damage. But it seems that I am still taking too much damage.

There is an issue, that will be fixed next patch, which is causing all insta-cast spells to act as if they had a cast time. That causes my shield to be put away and increases damage taken. This includes Judgments and Holy Shield, both which I need to cast repeatedly while tanking. Maybe this fix will help.

I do want to be an effective tank and I dont just mean the novel aoe trash show. But I still need some gear upgrades. Currently I dont feel I am an effective tank or healer and not sure if I can be either with my current spec. The planned changes for the Paladin in the upcoming patch are going to affect my hybrid build a lot.
