Also if you want to go down stating nonsense about other tanks being more ideal based off the history of tiers, then get your facts straight.
Are you kidding me??"
MOP alone had the Warrior being one of the top top tanks next to Paladin, & Monk bcoz of things like Crit Banner & Demo Banner.
In SOo warriors were top Damage tank, & better at mitigating most bosses than ANY other tank & this is coming from someone that main tanked with My Warrior, Paladin, Monk & DK in MOP alone. In Cata the top 2 tanks were Pally & Warrior, bcoz shield tanks were just plain better at smoothing out damage, this was however dependent on boss mechanics. DKs & Druids ONLY started pushing ahead in Cata in Dragon Soul, & this is purely bcoz raid mechanics were heavy on Magical Dmg & Dk/Druid could handle those mechanics much better. Again "Dependent on boss mechanics" this is always the case, so this one tank dominates all bullshit is nonsense.
if you want to talk about the RFDT model then go to the Prot Warriors Legion Thread, I've said my do there. Too many players have not even tested the new design or even understand how to correctly play the new abilities/play style properly. All you hear is RFTD sucks! Seriously do you guys even consistently main tank entire expansions or tiers I wonder.
No one tank will dominate, never been the case.
