  1. Any “casual” tanks out there? I’m trying it but I find that I just don’t learn routes etc. rapidly enough due to not playing for hours. Starting to think you can’t be a casual tank

  2. You are a top tier teacher. I don't care if you are the best tank or not. You are easily the best at imparting your knowledge. I don't care that you mispronounce word. It's part of your charm! Please keep doing what you are doing!

  3. Another great video but I have a fairly major problem with the title of the video. It should really be the COMPLETE guide for ALL classes performing mythics or something like that. The reason is that there are plenty of DPS and healer classes that do not understand kiting and line of sighting etc. I'm a healer main and watch every tanking video you do. So many DPS I have seen just let loose the fireball and forget as soon as the tank enters the room and then cry when they wipe

  4. I’ve been following you since DF season 3, and that’s the best thing related to World of Warcraft that I’ve done. You taught me so much about tanking and made my game life so much more enjoyable with all your profiles etc.
    I’ve said it multiple times in other videos, but again thank you for all that you do, you’re amazing.

  5. You are the absolute best content creator for tanks in my opinion. Your comprehensive and eloquent videos really helped me during DF and what you do for the tanking community is a godsend

  6. I've been tanking for years but I still decided to give this video a watch. Even a master must hone the basics in order to stay relevant. I will probably incorporate some of your awesome UI into my game. Clean, efficient and just beautiful. Great video, you got yourself another sub from me!

  7. Hey Quazii
    As a Pug tank that loves running m+ for the power of team work, you make the best content, BIG respect
    Cant wait for your follow up on the tank changes, that might not be as hard /kite meta as you feared..
    Do you have a video that can show a effective way as a pug tank to management interup/kick for the party

  8. My best friend picked up WoW right at the end of 10.1.5. She hit level 70 on a Prot Paladin without ever learning what an interrupt, CC, mitigation, or cooldowns were. It's painful how little the in-game teaches players expected skills for getting started. I don't think she's ready to tank keys, yet, but I've been coaching her on raids.

    I'm still trying to get her off of clicking, but I've taught her interrupts, mitigation, situations when she needs to use a cooldown, taunt swaps, trackers, and the importance of positioning. She's got a long way to go, but your guides have helped.
