The Whole priest n plate thing has been boring/bugging

While browsing You tube I came across this:

I'ts always nice to see a Pally Tank things the "masses"
say they can't. With the new patch comming up, Holy
getting me bored, and some inspiration by Invisusira
It may be time to take the dusty Tank set out of storage.
Night bane is giving us trouble... so just maybe... :D

Only thing the has me confuzzled about this guy (gal?)
is his spell damage is almost non exsistant, so I wonder how he keeps th
threat!




Ps: check this gem out lawl:

Yeah lets see a tank do it without fear ward lol, frigging ally wusses lol. Don't get me wrong, a paladin can tank kara, gruul, mag, and even some off SSC fine, but then you're completely useless until Hyjal, and then after Hyjal you're back to useless. If you want to raid and get bored of holy then maybe you're bored of paladin.

I've heard of Paladins tanking through the Eye, they talk about it on that Paladin tanking forum.

We use Paladin tank on the summoners in Mag. They get the job done and once you get to mag it isnt a dps fight so having them along is not a problem.

In TK they do a decent job on VR if need be, we use em on Al'ar for the spawns. Solarian it is nice to have a Prot Pally for the trash/aoe. In SSC we don't use em on Lurker, but we do tend to use them for the spawns on Hydross. Tidewalker would suck without a prot pally. We use our Prot Pallies for FL as well and they even help tank Leo.

Any raiding guild looking to get into tier 5 raid content should have at least one prot paladin in their inventory. While they won't be main tanking bosses while you are learning new content there are a number of fights with mulitple spawns which make having the aoe threat generation of a prot paladin pretty nifty to have along.

I love seeing videos like that, hehe. I just wish my GM would let me tank some of these bosses once in a while, but the Warrior tank I run with has all his Kara gear but the cloak from Illhoof, so it really doesn't make sense for me to tank when he can, and I get added as an extra healer.

I looked up the Armory, and wow, only spell damage is from 2 ring enchants. No wonder she has to spam Consecration every time the CD is up. I also see pure +12 Stamina gems, except on the Helm, so I totaled up her avoidance. I got 102.7%, barely uncrushable. Must be nice to add all that stamina and keep uncrushable status, but until a few things drop for me, I have to keep using hybrid gems >.>

Off topic, anyone that could direct me to an explanation of how to create one of those videos? I'm pretty much computer illiterate, but I'd love to make a vid of my Paly tanking.
