Quote:I, once again, completely and openly disagree with you. They still have bear form which grants armor and life. They still have access to all of the skills of a bear tank. They're not as effective as a warrior but they CAN do it.
About 6 months ago I tanked a Strat Baron run as a Resto Druid with 5 points in Feral. Despite 3 of us being well-equipped Naxx raiders including a superb healer we had multiple wipes and couldnt beat the Baron
To be fair the Warlock was being a complete dps monkey and the only time I ever had aggro was during Growl but it wasn't really a fun experience
Bear in mind that this patch further reduces the ability of even Resto Druids to generate threat and I think you're in for a very tough time going somewhere non-trivial with a resto druid tank. And if it's somewhere trivial you might be better just nuking like nutters and letting the Resto Druid heal rather than having him tank
