DH tank slaughters DK tank in instanced pvp (arena / bg)

[Deleted]

I wanted to ask you a question
I main 927 ilvl DH tank
I've been doing lots of 2v2 arena skirmishes
And I've had lots of duels 1v1 with other tanks and especially blood DKs
I've been expecting to be at least on par with them but it seems to me that DH tank totally annihilates blood DK in instanced PVP
I do lots of dmg to them
and when dampening starts to kick in they always start dropping much faster
Am I right to assume that DH tank is by far the best 1v1 tank class and no other tank can kill it 1v1 in arena/bg unless kited or those Blood DKs sucked badly?
It just seems to me that DH tank toolkit is extremely well-built around 1v1 tanking...

We got :demon spikes, fiery brand (40% dmg reduction with 30% uptime), demon form, great self heal, huge fire dmg (most tanks have good mitigation vs phys but not magic dmg)....

Yes Yes, you're the best, that's a useful thread !

Or maybe, MAYBE, just look at what everyone else is saying, and learn that dks survive very well, yes, but dhs have much more dps, and more burst, making dhs better in that case.

Wow, you're good, you play tanks in duels.

First thread was ok, now you're just sitting here bragging

Nobody fucking cares about dueling tanks.

[Aggrophobic]

Yeah, becuase 1vs1 matters...

Wow cool, a class has a strength over another class.

This isn't going to be constructive. Closing it.
