It's a good excuse to come up with creative approaches to the trinity, too, if you're keeping that.<br /><br />If nothing else, I'd love to see dodge-tanking made viable.Teshhttp://tishtoshtesh.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-88635625541284316182012-02-07T15:49:58.203-06:002012-02-07T15:49:58.203-06:00@Green Armadillo: Maybe mages could be reflective ...@Green Armadillo: Maybe mages could be reflective healers, meaning that they can, for example, cast their own sort of spell reflect on tanks, reflecting back X amount of damage. Or as actual healing, they could absorb damage for X seconds and then return that to the tank, as healing.<br /><br />@Shalcker: I'd hope to keep them someone like they are now, in terms of being pure casters, but with some tweaks to give one tree the durability, and reduced damage output, to act as tanks.Klepsacovichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07915576683657376929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-6110348372936048292012-02-07T10:31:09.711-06:002012-02-07T10:31:09.711-06:00I loved spellpower swords for paladins, and was re...I loved spellpower swords for paladins, and was really sad to lose them in Wotlk. :(<br /><br />As for mage tanking, you can have spirit-link-like damage sharing with water elemental for damage reduction, as well as reduction shields. Or perhaps go full elemental transformation, like Twilight Ascendants.Shalckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04929708411856414654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5462978744516866472.post-36980102043210036572012-02-07T10:09:53.760-06:002012-02-07T10:09:53.760-06:00I loved the idea someone had on another blog about...I loved the idea someone had on another blog about What Might Have Been with Demolocks as tanks.

Warlocks could get a life-drain-based healing approach like Rift Chloromancers. Rogues get an evasion tanking spec (or do DK's still have this niche?) and I guess you buff up BM Hunters with Tenacity pets. <br /><br />Ideal? No. Better than having four classes that have no flexibility because they were created in an era where being hybrid meant doing a mediocre job healing?
