Hey Sarthe! One thing I will add is that I would not recommend dual wield tanking Twin Emps for most of the people watching a How to tank AQ video. Sarthe is fully world buffed, fully consumed, flasked, and is running 12 healers. If you do not meet these requirements, do not dual wield tank it! Threat isn't much of an issue on this fight if you can get the teleport down so just use a shield.
This, this, so much this. Sarthe says himself 'I have a massive threat lead' while DWing Huhu at 20% and being hit for 5k every second. Great if your healers can manage that while you have 12k health pool.
first global: if you've got rage built up before the fight starts you can queue up HS have your auto attacks ready and spam BT as you engage so as you hit the boss you should have a HS+BT+OH swing go off at once
Great vid. I’m a tank in a guild that got started late. So this is great info and the comment section as well. I want to ensure I have the three pillars complete before I truly switch over to FP; wep skill, hit & crit thresholds. Even though I’m human, I still want +wep skill to reduce glancing. Maybe someone can tell me if that’s a huge issue or not.
Lots of great info Sarthe, I would add though along with your first GCD being Bloodthirst, you can que a heroic strike with it. Just need to have the foresight to have rage pooled or can mighty rage as well if this isn’t an option.
It takes some practice but you can consistently hit C’Thun in P2 with WW without getting knocked back if you stand a couple steps inside of him and jump
Hi Sarthe, love that assignment sheet and I'm looking to use something similar for my own guild. Any chance you could drop the link in here or in your discord so I can make a copy?
To be fury prot spec isn’t just because of the extra aggro gain from defiance( I think that’s the name in english) you also get the defensiv cd like last stand and improved shild block. And then the aggro bonus from defiance, with allows you to gear more defensively without losing aggro because you generate more aggro in your defensiv gear. Obviously to maximize your aggro you just put a fury prot specct dd Warrior in full dd gear. That generats the most aggro but that is most of time not needed. Even for very good guilds. So to summarize that your tank isn’t fury prot specct gives him less viability. And he has more problems with keeping aggro when he hast to wear more defensive gear.
How can you talk about precautions of dw tanking twin emps and not acknowledge you have a titans, which a lot of guilds/tanks can't afford to have up outside progression
Totally skipped over Visc when your rotation should be different than any other boss. Since he takes reduced damage, sunder is better than most other abilities.
@O K Since Viscidous takes reduced damage sunder becomes much better since it is a static threat amount and not reduced like Bloodthirst or Heroic Strike, even with 5 Sunders already applied.
How is this a guide? Youre basicly doing a half-assed commentary of your own gameplay, with small inputs of general tips of the boss encounters and basic tanking mechanics. Please stop clickbaiting Sarthe

Yeah that should be any and all fights if you can make it happen.

Sarthe crazy good at everything wow classic

@O K Ya once you know the spot it's ez pz
P1 WW hits cthun, p2 you need to be in the sweet spot but really isn't worth it as its hard to get perfect
Awesome content, thanks for sharing.
By the way could you list the addons you're using on your tank ?
Great guide

O K we don’t have to hold back on dps at all, our mt got #9 in world for last weeks AQ speedrun for tank damage
Rank 1 curse of reck on MC ppl post emps trash. Don't decurse. They are now immune to all fears and horrify effects for 2 min
our locks max rank us with reck xD hella AP.
How can you talk about precautions of dw tanking twin emps and not acknowledge you have a titans, which a lot of guilds/tanks can't afford to have up outside progression
That weakaura to see the anubisaths auras. Cant seem to find it? Can you link pls?
PS: Great content as always. Much love!
You mean for the first packs? wago.io/Cw4gM-c66 or wago.io/Md7nOre6R show their abilities and suggest a kill-order (can be configured)
@@Kessra thanks!
Can someone link me his warrior addons/weakauras

@O K Completely false. In the Salad Bakers world #1 run the tank uses 3 Sunders on opener and after the split.
@O K They are the only guild under 30 minutes...got it yesterday
Please send me that spreadsheet some how, I'll even pay for it . Love love love.
Kicks game is just rude, don’t get Jiu Jitsu’d.
youre missing/clipping/delaying lots of BTs, should get a better UI to see BT CD, revenge etc in the center of your screen
Show me your gear!
pleg
