Quote:Unless Blizzard figures out that 2 minutes of ease followed by 1 minute of BURN ALL TANK AND HEALER COOLDOWNS is getting to be really ridiculous, I don't really see a need for warrior changes beyond making Block not suck. They still have less HP than Druids but I'd rate their cooldowns better and that's coming into play very often.
What really hurt Warriors with a Prot Paladin along was the change to BoSanc. Now that BoSanc is really only going to assist a Paladin in tanking (just gives back mana instead of rage and RP like it use to) that hurt as Warriors couldn't go nuts stacking Avoidance and still gain rage while take few physical hits. Sadly, Warrior tanking right now is way more niche that it use to be which is the big shame in it.
Paladins still have their big trick, the ability to out threat any other tank. If I get in the first bit of threat on a boss, unless the other tanks taunt or I fail at letting RF fall :whistling:, no other tank will catch me in threat and I can out threat another tank and take a boss over without needing to taunt as well (I've done this several times).
DKs are slowly getting nerfed down, that's begun as they no longer get as much armor while in frost presence. When asked by one of the DKs on SR what Warrior and Paladin tanks had for armor with a shield before the frost presence change went in, they realized that they had more armor than a equally tier equipped Warrior or Palaadin and that with lowering of the effect of frost presence they now had armor levels equal to said Warriors and Paladins.
Druids are in the pedullum movement now swinging from underpowered to overpowered as Blizzard tries to find a good middle ground. Prior 3.0.8, Druids had a lot of issues that made the other tanks better choices on most boss fights. Now with the buffs from 3.0.8 and 3.1, Druids are being choosen more often in a variety of fights because they've swung from underpowered to overpowered.
The only think we can do right now is wait for 3.2 and see what happens then.
