How well do you think that will go, by playing as a tank (Demonology spec) with a Monk (Mistweaver) from level 15 and up thru dungeons?
Got any tips?

Well as soon as you reach level 25, get the Glyph of Demon Hunting, which when activated, turns you into a mini-tank of sorts. Which is efficient to about level 70'ish honestly, you are basically immortal really, and the damage is okay.

Haha! Sorry. But the dungeons still exist outside of the Dungeon Tool. We just run to the entrance. So we don't que. I did say it was just me and my girlfriend.
Oh that works. Make sure your healer has a twohander and let him start fistweaving
I'll report back after level 70. Maybe we will beat those dungeons alone!
I think using a voidwalker provides even better results as long as stuff in aoe dies fast enough and gets stunned, as the voidwalker kinda sucks getting aoe threat.
My Monk is already level 90. My girlfriend is playing the Monk and she want to be a Mistweaver and I want to be a ranged for once, without healing.
So it was either Warlock or Hunter. And I went with Warlock.
But after Gnomeregan, oh boi... I deal so bad damage with heirlooms, but my Voidwalker seem to do okey.
Now I did change to Destruction just for a test, and I was doing a lot more damage (I think), but the Voidwalker couldn't hold aggro.
Perhaps Affliction is a better way to go, builds up damage slowly while Voidwalker builds threat?

I wonder if a Hunter's pet is better tank than a Voidwalker can ever be?
It is a well known fact that locks aren't really great during leveling early on, they miss so many important abilities that they get later on that it makes you wonder about stuff like going a different class. But trust us, locks are great once they get all the good stuff .
I would say the voidwalker is a way better tank than any hunter pet, I don't know though if they have the passive threat bonus skill implemented from the get-go or if they get it later as your level progresses. The only thing that they lack is aoe threat.
Once you get Soul Link, the voidwalker becomes beastly. Before that it will die with way more hits.
About leveling, I'd stay stick to Demo/Destro for dungeons and go Destro for soloing/questing with voidwalker, Affliction has waaay too slow damage buildup, stuff usually dies before you can cast all dots on them.

That's my concern, the lack of AoE threat.
How is the Felguard as tank? I know he has some area effect.
The felguard has been great for me. It's much better than voidwalker on AoE threat, it just dies faster.
Not the quickest way to level but looks like fun, is the health funnel glyph any use for keeping felguard up or you find you need to heal more often than the CD allows?
