Holy Tanking pt. 1

Well, I want to talk a bit about tanking as a Holy Paladin, as it's extremely doable, I'd like to think my current spec for Sylvina (check the armory profile) is more than equipped to do this for non-heroic 5-mans and even some off-tanking in Karazhan. However, I do want to touch on something in my last article real quick:

- Stupid Ogre Spirits for Ogri'la Pre-Req aren't exorcismable.
- Stupid Balnazaar in Stratholme is a Humanoid.
- Stupid Demon Hunters in SMV are Humanoids.

What I've noticed is that Blizzard doesn't have dynamic monster types, if a monster turns undead or demon they're still considered a human, which is really lame for Paladins since they have many abilities that focus on undead primarily.

Tanking Part:

Okay here's the tanking part, nothing fancy at the moment, and nothing too in-depth. I just want to break some things down for how a Holy Paladin tanks.

- Pull with Holy Shock

- Spam Consecrate as much as possible, you won't have Holy Shield or that fancy pants blessing.

- Use Kings on yourself, you'll need the extra +STA.

- Tank with Concentration Aura, since you're Holy spec, you should be able to spot heal yourself as necessary while tanking.

- Don't be afraid to use Lay on Hands, especially if you have the talent points in it.

Off-Topic:

My Shockadin topic got mentioned on WoWInsider's 'The Light and How to Swing It', yay, I feel special. Thanks again for asking me questions guys!
