1. Druid tank in dungeons feels like griefing

    I have played all tanks and druid is by far the worst dungeon tank in the game. Practically non-existant AoE threat in the form of a Swipe that's near useless in the 3k-5k gs range but you still have to spam it because it *might* keep enemies on you. Single target threat is also mediocre and I really hate having to stack Lacerate which doesn't feel impactful at all.

    Paladin and Warrior are amazing in dungeons. Death Knights were weird at first until I figured out that deep Frost + Unholy talents gives a ton of immediate AoE threat and damage with Howling Blast + Death & Decay + Blood Boil (neatly uses up all runes in 3 spellcasts). But Druid is so awful in dungeons, I don't want to play it again.

  2. You should be using Glyph of Maul and tabbing between enemies. You don't use lacerate in dungeons, enemies die too fast.

    So like the guy above said, use this glyph . additionally do a macro on swipe plus maul plus start attack. and use tab so that each of the opponents gets from this combination. maul does a lot of threat! i have to say that for me the best tank is Paladin because when someone from raid or party raiseteals Agro i can bind click on healbot to use rightousness defense - no need to change target no need to aim cursor and so on. I also have death night and I will say that I don't tank badly, but I'm definitely worse at a o e (I play in the blood specialization) now I just made a feral druid and I learned very quickly and felt how to tank with a teddy bear. I always enter fairyfire, charge and if it attacks a group it immediately goes swip. And if the single target is ff, charge, mangle and then the rest. I have to say that I'm surprised that the bear tanks area so well and basically rarely someone takes Agro from me on rhc. In addition, I must say that the teddy bear is probably the simplest tank of the three mentioned above. oh, the important thing about a teddy bear is the weapon. write what weapon you use because an upgrade can work wonders and add, for example, 700 attack power! This means moore threat

  4. I have all tanks 6k+ and feral swipe spam run-through is by far my fav. Spam 1 macro for the whole dungeon and run, that's all. But yeah might struggle at lower GS since you lack all other utility as tank.
