OH. the woes of being a geared player. In order to stay current frost badges us geared players must force ourselves to carry other fresh 80s through heroics. On a bad battle-group what should be a 20 minute pleasurable experience morphs into a nightmare. I dread hitting the button "find group" on my LFD.
That being said, us geared players were once horribly geared, but we somehow overcame this "obstacle" and are now the cream of the crop; the magnum opus if you will. I am all for giving geared players the chance to gear up, hell its easy now with free triumph badges and welfare loot. But don't make the geared and experienced players go through Dante's Inferno. I can carry ALL the dps in the group, it is them that is not the problem. The overlying problem lies with the tank.
Blizzard needs to implement a gear score system when matching up players. No, a 3800 gs tank can not and will not be able to hold aggro over a 6k gs dps. It is physically impossible. And it isn't the tanks fault.
If I am forsakened enough to find myself to be paired with a lowly tank, I usually pull aggro with one dam incinerate... after waiting 10 seconds for the tank to get aggro. So a simple fix to matching noob tanks with geared dps is simple, give us the geared tanks. Let the less geared tanks go to the lesser geared dps. It will save alot of headaches for both the lowly tank and the highly dps.
