Hi everyone, this thread is not meant to be a "whiny" thread about brewmasters.
But I have a few questions for other tanks, healers or raid leaders out there
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy my brewmaster (link in signature, but 498 ilvl).
But I just can't see why you would take a a brewmaster, compared to a warrior or paladin? Even a blood dk is better tanking wise, however they have no real raid CD's like warrior/paladin. Druids are in a bad place right now, but they still got tranq and innervate.
Monks got the Statue and in someway Chi Wave, how ever Chi wave isn't used that often since you have to keep shuffle close to 100%.
The only time I can use Chi Wave is when the other tank is tanking, but still it's not that high raid help compared to what warrior and paladin have to offer.
And it's not like we take "less" damage than other tanks, nor heal more than other tanks.
So, can anybody convince me to why you would ever take a monk compared to other tanks?
I would like to hear all kinds of pov's, healer/thanks and raid leaders! Please speak up!
Some logs from my last raid http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/rt-fcvltc4snd78jzw6/.
As you see, I can keep my shuffle time up to 100% (See 4Kings), the other fights you can't really tell since I Hi everyone, this thread is not meant to be a "whiny" thread about brewmasters.

As you see, I can keep my shuffle time up to 100% (See 4Kings, the only time I don't have shuffle up is the time where Qiang runs to me in start of fight.), the other fights you can't really tell since I prioritise to use Chi Wave instead of BoK and that's resulting in not 100% uptime on shuffle.
TL;DR Why pick Brewmaster compared to other tanks?
