Heya, its been a while since I've posted on Alla's forums. Well last time I was ehar I was a proud as hell Boomkin. But Alas times change and my guild needs a tank for our next kara group and it seems our server is tank starved all the sudden. So they came to me asking that I respecc. Was very reluctant but I decided to go ahead with it.
Anyways my problem is that I need a tanking weapon besides Earthwarden. In my mad rush to 70 I did not follow the guide on how to best get rep for Cenarion. Besides I never though I would be tanking and theres nothing that Cenarion's quartermasters have that balance druids must have. I'm sitting at about 3/4 honored with every single quest completed. Thats just way to much instancing and I only have about 2 weeks to get fully geared anyways. So heres the weapons I have decided on, and I would appreciate if you tanks give me some feedback. Also keep in mind that i have already considered each of these weapons usefulness with a 35 agility enchant on them.
Braxxis' Staff of Slumber
Personally, I despise this weapon. The 39 stam is easily replaced and the FAP is downright pitiful. Theres druids on my server whose gone into Kara with this wep and have done mediocre, but I simply do not like it. Now the only problem is I am armor starved at the moment. I'm still in some greens but I plan on getting some PvP gear to boost my armor. Still I dont see how I'm gonna make 20k+ armor by the time I'm finished. Soo that 2k extra armor sure is nice...
Fleshling Simulation Staff
This is what I am currently leaning towards. Fact is I already have it and when you slap that 35 agility on it that a lovely amount of dodge and crit (not to mention that tad bit more armor). It has less 12 less stam then Braxxis but like I said before, thats easily replaced. All I need is for someone to say, "Yes, you can MT/OT Kara with that" and this is what I'm going with no matter how much better the other staves are. Time is of the essence :/
Greatstaff of the Leviathan
This was originally the staff I was going for. Something always goes wrong so I can never reach the boss. I have pretty much given up on getting this staff, so I will attempt getting it again ONLY if it is not possible to tank with the other to staves.
