![]() Note on Hungering Cold: A lot of people put it in their builds, however i find it rather crap for tanking. Blizz even said they don't want DW tanking and they will nerf it if it becomes the common tanking mode. It's not a drastic amount of more parries but DK's are very vulnerable to burst damage and getting parried only increases the burst. Also you're going to get parried more than when you use a 2 hander so that means you'll be taking more damage. Your crit is still going to be pretty low so KM still won't proc as much as in a DW dps spec. TBH though DW tanking is always going to be subpar to 2 hander tanking, and is much better suited for dps. With DW white damage is actually a much bigger factor in your dps and threat as you attack a lot quicker and hit more, so white damage proc talents like Killing machine and Blood caked blades becomes more effective. With DW frost you'll be using Howling blast more than obliterate as your obliterate damage will be a lot lower than Howling blast due to it being based of a 1hander instead of a 2 hander, where howling blast is always the same amount of damage. If you want to DW tank as frost use this spec: I've still not decided if i want to keep my filler points in icy talons or put them in endless winter, i'll probably go with the endless winter one as it saves more rp for frost strikes and rune strikes. Here is my frost tank spec, which goes for maximizing all the tank talents in the frost tree with best early ones from blood/unholy. Also icy talons is not that far behind it as what's the point of increasing your normal attack speed when all your big damaging attacks don't get effected by haste? If you want to 2 hand tank then add Killing machine to the shit useless list as your white damage will be negligible and your crit is going to be low so 5 pts into a talent that will rarely proc is a waste. Now the question is do you want to DW tank or do you want to 2 hand tank. Since you will rarely ever hit 100 runic power what is the point of having a maximum of 130? Waste of talents points that's what! If you do that means you need to frost strike and rune strike more. ![]() You should never reach 100/100 runic power. What is the point of increasing your damage against an almost dead target? If you don't have enough agro on the mob by 35% you're doing something wrong. The talents in the frost tree you do not want to get as they are absolutely shit useless for tanking: Any "tank" build without instantly discount as a crappy buildĪnd since resistances are always good i like getting Frost aura and Acclimation. ![]() If you're tanking frost here are the key talents you must get:īlade Barrier<-This btw is one of the best tanking talents in the game. Personally though i would miss the death runes for more oblis/HB's from blood of the north. Although the mark of blood specs are rather interesting and are worth trying out. To the op i don't suggest using any of them as most of them are very bad. Wow is what i have to say to most of these specs. ![]()
