Know every pull on a variety of affixes: What packs can be combined on Bolstering? Which mobs do you pick up for percentage on Teeming? Where can you drop Sanguine puddles?.Know every pull in every dungeon: What casts need to be kicked? Does this mob stack a debuff or have a frontal cone ability? Where can I line-of-sight a pull or kite? Does this mob have a proximity-based ability that will kill melee DPS if I do kite?.The knowledge requirement to be an effective tank in M+ is daunting. Otherwise, while I know the drumbeats for account-wide HOA levels and Essences are pretty loud, that’s the only thing likely to solve this issue quickly. Potential fix: The threat issue has a minor fix approaching in patch 8.3, gating the threat boost behind the first Major Essence and not a series of small ones. Tanking for people who out-gear you has never been fun, and now the hurdle is higher. Getting a brand-new tank at 120 to hold threat against 440+ players with maxed-out necks and Lens of the Focusing Iris is a different matter. Getting a brand-new tank at 120 to a decent ilevel is easy. Some of the most commonly used minor tank Essences (e.g., Nullification Dynamo, Aegis of the Deep) are gated behind reputation and material grinds, just as valuable threat and stamina boosts are gated behind HOA levels. However, Battle for Azeroth has introduced another wrinkle in the form of Heart of Azeroth levels and Essences. Normally, this is a short-term problem, because one of the advantages to playing a tank is the ease of getting groups. By contrast, an under-geared tank is at a severe disadvantage with respect to both mitigation and threat, and can’t really be carried as a result. The average group can carry an under-geared DPS through a timed key up to around +15. There’s an inherently bigger gear barrier for tanks I’ve listed the ones that I think are probably the biggest culprits. Right now it seems to have reached another crest, and players have suggested a number of potential causes and solutions. Tank shortages are perennial complaints in WoW, but the severity tends to wax and wane. If you are a tank, you know what it’s like to log on and watch a series of increasingly desperate requests flood in. It’s a problem if you’re running low-level keys, it’s a problem if you just want a +10 for the week, and and it’s still a problem even at the very top. Unless you’ve got a buddy from your guild who’s online, or have otherwise chained a few people to their computers for your own convenience, odds are good you’ll be sitting in LFG for a while.
One of the most persistent complaints among people running Mythic+ dungeons in World of Warcraft is how hard it is to find a tank.
