Re: What is the current best DPS Rogue spec Please dont trash talk a Tank, it really is annoying how dps will do that so much. if YOU think YOU can do better, then YOU should roll a tank and be the tank.
I play dps, heals and tanks, and as a healer or tank nothing annoys me more then DPS making comments on how they can do better as a tank. so one more time...
If YOU think YOU can do better as a tank, YOU be the tank! |

You say that like you get comments all the time about how bad you are. Maybe its because you really are bad? I know when I tank I never hear anything negative  |

Not trying to advocate player bullying, but many players may have one or several tank toons and felt like going DPS. Rude is never acceptable, but tanks should also show the same respect. If there is advice given in either direction, a polite approach will typically garner better results than typical group banter, and just may be for the better of the group. |

Most tanks are keyboard turning retards who found it too hard to do anything but just stand there and take a hit. They don't care about anything except TWO stats, be it Mastery and Dodge, or Parry and Dodge. there is no thinking involved. and when they find those wierd heiroglyphs on their keyboard (W,A,S,D) they go nuts and just press to go anywhere. When I want to just zone out and faceroll, I play a tank. And yes, I tank on EVERY tanking class and outgear your main with my alts. |

said by Jodokast: Please dont trash talk a Tank I will happily "trash" LFR tanks when they're ignorant and refusing to take advice. Tanks these days think they're god's because they're in the minority, refusing to take constructive criticism and see it only as "trash talk" - they're only hurting themselves. No one complains about a good tank. If people are commenting, you're doing it wrong. It really is that simple, sorry. Know the fight, pull appropriate sized groups - no one QQ's. |

Tanking takes skill and knowledge. A bad tank can suffice for LFR. But you instantly recognize a tank that's aware of aggro, watches his healer, picks up new adds, manages cooldowns etc etc... it's not simply button spam in my... humble... opinion. |

A good tank knows how to position a mob, keep spawns taunted off of healers, when to use their cooldowns, everything you said. A dungeon/raid is 100% faster and easier with a quality tank, and you can tell the difference usually on the first trash pull. |

I AM the TANK. That's kind of the problem. This is my eighth Alliance toon that I've geared to Hour of Twilight gear level, iLevel 380 or higher for them. I know I should be doing much more damage. So I don't know how much of it is my main hand iLevel 346 dagger and how much is me. I'm pulling 10K on trash and know I should be doing more. Bosses are more acceptable, but feel I should be doing 12K or better without a lot of effort. |

"When I want to just zone out and faceroll, I play a tank. And yes, I tank on EVERY tanking class and outgear your main with my alts." Just because you are in raid finder gear on a few alts doesnt make you geared :P. Now I can confidently say that MY alts def out gear your main and therefore my epeen is way bigger then yours. |

that is close to par for sub in a 5 man, remember you arent a great aoe spec, so the loss of dps from packs even ones a boss may spawn is going to be overall lower, muti has fok damage that is way better and com has blade flurry, on stand and deliver fights you should pull away from muti, and be very close to com if not a bit better, with comparable gear. |

It may be, but mine is longer and stronger.  How many alts are we talking about? I don't raid, tried but can't find a guild that fits my schedule that is active, that is as good as it gets for not raiding. Here are my alts. I haven't played the Nazgrel set since before the Hour of Twilight dungeons were available, so that's why they only have the 378 gear. I also have a full time job and attending college, so my playing time isn't as much as I might have. I'm pretty much limited to weekend play. On Lothar I have: Meeleenda - Frost Mage - Level 85 Hidra - Marksman Hunter - Level 85 Fineona - Protection Warrior - Level 85 Thrinath - Subtlety Rogue - Level 85 Waif - Affliction Warlock - Level 85 Panedora - Discipline Priest - Level 85 Paindora - Protection Paladin - Level 85 Shareine - Enhancement Shaman - Level 85 Drina - Balance Druid - Level 85 Dreadfull - Unholy Death Knight - Level 85 On Nazgrel I have: Deliar - Blood Death Knight - Level 85 Plethra - Protection Paladin - Level 85 Magnif - Frost Mage - Level 85 Tifta - Assassination Rogue - Level 85 Fino - Protection Warrior - Level 85 Hillgar - Marksman Hunter - Level 85 Sharine - Enhancement Shaman - Level 85 Walena - Affliction Warlock - Level 85 Drifta - Balance Druid - Level 85 Pairass - Shadow Priest - Level 85 |

Cymraeg, I have commented the same as I always have, I'm not sure what you're upset about?
Killjoy knows I've questioned the amount of time he's played before...
Despite what you seem to be insinuating, my goal here has never been to be a forum "twat". |

Nebraskans actually don't have much of an accent, one of the reasons many call centers and polling centers can be found here. The central Midwestern accent is basically no accent, generally speaking, and is considered to be the easiest accent to understand. Insert knowing is half the battle. |

I'm testing my rogue in Pandaria, agreed on Combat, although even with the level 87 growl we are still taking tons of damage, even questing, I died many times on world trash, even using CDs, there too many nasties that travel in groups of 10+ and recuperate seems very nerfed for self heals.
When regular/non-elite mobs hit you for 5K each and you'll have 3 on you, you'll see :P |
