lol@me i have pally shoulders

btw jas:

ur chest can go glinting what. 6AP socket bonus and the hit cap (which looks like what ur trying to achieve with the 4.5% hit)
and the blue has to go tongue.gif

maybe pick up JC? you can chain BM + dual trinkets. (or rapid fire if you wanna fire both of em at once)
the green gems are pretty shit though despite socket bonus, better off with purple. and maybe try to pick up a meta helm for the 3% crit dmg (just that alone would boost ur dmg a LOT, considering ur BM, AND ur crit's decently high)
getting crit scope on ur ranged would be awesome cakes too (though cost an arm/leg)

and whats with the belt >.>
socket missing bonus (glinting) and rogue welfare belt too lol, Hit rating bloated

btw i think everyone shud stop argueing, will get everyone no where....totally out of topic, but king friendly suggestion, find a guild that's in ssc/tk, and raiding time starts like around 8pm or 9pm local time??

Ya, raiding takes time, and at days I raid till 2am even its weekdays, yet, there's a price to pay if you wanna be leet =/ So it really depends on individual if you're willing to sacrifice some of your sleep time, or time for TV/family for raiding, or the other way round....

I honestly thought he just needed some better loot, other than T4 chestpieces and maybe the Eye of Magtheridon, the rest of his loot weren't that great.

Plus now that you only need one group of clickers, I get ZERO dps time ):

a bit hard to give him better loots without screwing over gruul/SSC/TK sleep.gif;

but yea i do agree the biggest turn off of mag is shitty loots. seriously not worth it to even go there, pug or guild runs.

Don't you just love threads that go on and on and on and...

King83: You seem to be able to do your homework when it comes to tanking especially with all the Effective Health references you made, but for someone who has nothing to do in the game besides do heroics, Karazhan and Zul'aman you have terribly shit gear and I wouldn't even think of recruiting you when you don't have a single piece of badge gear. Based on your posts so far you seem to only play within a very small circle of bads despite Nagrand being an oceanic server. Play better, make more friends in-game to get you into better runs, get more gear. Doesn't even take as long as raiding. Get out of that well you're squatting in.

As for all the Tanks>Healers>DPS, DPS>Tanks=Healers, whatever talk...

Aren't you guys overestimating yourselves *just* a little?

It takes a group effort from everyone to be successful in raids. Everyone has an equal share of accountability especially past Tier 5 content. Once the effort stops, the suck starts. I don't mean the kind of 'effort' that you put into doing your house chores either, but the kind that you put in when you do enjoy doing something and doing it well.

For the longest time tanks and healers had the most boring jobs in the game. There are plenty of tanks and healers out there who are taken for granted, especially since you consider the amount of people who took up those roles out of necessity to the guild, or friends begging/bugging them to. I'm happy to know a few of them who are good at what they do and genuinely love it, which is why it sucks that the raids must go on and it's sometimes difficult to give them a DPS holiday because of it. Whats the most dangerous mindset a tank or healer could have? IMO, the kind of tank or healer that has a sense of entitlement because they think they're doing the guild "a service" by playing a non-DPS role in raids. That's a dead end for player improvement, but it happens a lot because they're in role that is mostly a thankless job.

Compare that to any DPS class. How often do you hear a rogue b**** about how boring his class is during raids? Mage? Warlock? Despite the common ratio of tanks to healers to DPS being somewhere around 1:7:17 to 3:9:13 which means more loot competition for DPS, DPS is in a comparatively fun and attractive role compared to a tank or a healer. Don't pull aggro, enjoy the more engaging and less stressful role you have in fights, and... I can't even think about what else a DPS has to do. f*** all.

It's a group effort, but when you look at a raids expectations of a tank, a healer, and a DPS, you bet your ass that the raid expects a DPS to give more than 100%. Losing a heavily invested DPS sucks, but so does losing anyone with so much gear that the guild helped them get. Equal accountability, different expectations.
*
pretty much whats been needed to said has been said.

myself and many other various posters have already been saying that a raid requires the same effort/contributions from all 3 roles be it tank/dps/heals. if its prebc i may agree with king but again, pre bc is long dead, this is burning crusade.

King, you are a tanker, easy mode to get instance invite.
MY guild raid MH yesterday, i receive no love when they raid MH/BT.
So i pug kara and other instance as dps warrior. You know how hard to find group of people that want dps warrior right?
Anyway, i managed to pug kara then HUB (down only two boss before reset), then HSP (got 5 BOJ because daily)
So from 9.30pmm till 2am. i got 29 BOJs, and also did some daily which net me about 200G, and also did some BG PvP which net me about 1k KHP.
Not a bad day i would say....

And by the way, since you said quazacolt have zero knowledge in PVE/raid. Please at least get it right on how many times you can do kara in a week. really don't look good on you.

Added on June 9, 2008, 1:21 pmjust puged gruul's...i need to stop watching athena on youtube while playing wow =.=|| i skiped a good 1 min of the fight and  managed to reach num 3 on dps chart....a mage was pooling out 400dps in fire spec while dest lock was in 600....srsly is 1 button spamming hard? i some times really want to try playing a dest lock again.
*
why not be number1? and even number 1 dps, no reason to stop right there tongue.gif

im pretty much number 1 dps too almost 99% of the runs i do (back in our raiding days, and current pugging days) maintaining between 1k-1.2k dps sustained on all fights. i could definitely go for more even with my current gear but as is, most if not all tanks at my current level cannot maintain enough TPS to sustain over 1.2k DPS, even with vanish/salv its still not possible as ill catch up eventually unless i do a really late vanish but then again im still capped on dps pre-vanish.

if you havent noticed, i still do the SAME dps despite my numerous upgrades over the months. its either capped dps, or repair bills + mass deaths resulting 0 dps tongue.gif
not much you can do getting PUG'ed tanks that dont usually spec/geared the way you want for maximum TPS (an alt set would be needed on farming instances like kara especially when everyone is geared and its pretty much a dps race, pure mitigation would only result mobs scratching tank and no rage = no threat)

but for hunters, thats definitely not a problem with feign death smile.gif

=edit=
swear to god just put those mage/lock on black list. even tanks can chug out 300-500 DPS depending on fight/setup etc. 400 dps is pretty much worse than the tank itself, and thats pretty f***ing sad.

=edit2=
lol our paladin on holy gear again
16.6k armor, 373 resil
25.6% holy crits (more if using hlight)
10k mana/hp

1. I've never heard of Hit Rating enchants...
2. I said rings/trinkets (so no leather)
3. Tanks(PROT) don't gem for HR.... we equip for HR (which brings us back to #2)
4. I have my eyes on a few Tanking HR stuff but i just wanna hear ur opinion on this
since rogues have such high HR itemization.
5. If i can equip a single rogue high HR item, i won't gimp my other stats so much.
*
1) thottbot/wowhead .com
2) theres barely if not 0 HR itemized for tanks
3) tanks, yes prot, gem/enchant for HR, not equip for HR
4) item 3
5) http://thottbot.com/i29011 vs http://thottbot.com/i29044
- block = shield slam dmg = threat = the main purpose of even goin HR in the first place
- NB red socket, max you can go is glinting unless you wanna lose sock bonus, warbringer is pure yellow, can straight away rigid it without 2nd thoughts.
- stamina and most importantly, armor comparison of both helms
- warbringer has str that helps scale ur SB too, while agi from NB helm does nothing besides dodge/minor armor/crit.

bottom line: no, tanks dont friggin equip for HR. they gem an off set tanking set.

@ Quaza,
There are a million threads about tanks not gemmng for HR,
i can link u to some, but i'd rather not.... won't prove anything anyways.
*
people get TWO or MORE tanking sets for a reason. if dps isnt a concern and staying alive is, just pure mitigation. if sudden death streaks eg: kara prince - parry into thrash that crushes then more hp pool is prefered to have allow healers more breathing room. and likewise as this derailed topic goes, if you want more TPS for more dps room, get HR/expertise.

you can link all the "million" of threads you want, but fact is when people are all in favor to min-maxing their characters/group/raids/guilds, they will go for the extra mile. call them hardcore or no life but when it comes down to getting the job done they will be the person you want to be with.

Expertise is the best stat for both aggro and mitigation though.

Edit: Quaza just plays with/knows some horrible tanks.
*
eh how would expertise helps on mitigation? only reduces dodge/parry, dont think it helps? unless im missing something.

and what you said is correct. cuz being dps capped at 1-1,2k despite so many PVE upgrades (even the T6 equalvalent welfare loots) should make it VERY apparent. but again, in a PUG enviroment, you cant expect people to friggin spec/gear threat builds LOL. (theres 1-2 tanks that pugs a lot with me does that though, since he knows well how much dps i can do and partying with them allows an extra threshold of 100-200more DPS)

even SIMPLE things such as using BATTLESHOUT over commanding shout would make a world's difference in getting that extra threat. even if it does buff me, know this that rogues have passive threat reduction while the tank have ALL the bonuses in the world to ultilize that AP to produce more threat than the rogue ever would to steal it. and tanks that group with me more would know of this. its only a prob with pala tanks but then again i can always group them with sham for WOA, which usually solves the problem almost instantly, and casters LOVE them for AOE speed pulls smile.gif

So for my case, HR > Expertise.

from my experience, 40ish HR seems to be the minimum i should aim for atm..
so 35 HR from romulo's vial is HECK ALOT !!!

if demo shout is ur only damn concern you can go 0 hit rating /shrug

When mobs parry you, they gain a faster attack on you on their next attack.
and vice versa.

i believe that chance would be rather low unless on certain bosses thats known to spike dmg/thrash. it would be a lot more beneficial to go for pure mitigation stats like your own dodge/parry if we're talking bout mitigation.

then again since expertise is an excellent TPS tool, and as mentioned being able to slightly add mitigation, its quite a no brainer if ur goin for TPS centric setup.
