Why does everyone put the only battle rezzer as the tank?

In a perfect world, there is no need for a battle-rez. Ideally, everyone does what they're supposed to and you run out with H LK down and 10/10 up (before the mass kill / rez).
Realistically, however, you are correct. I'd say that we need to work a tree in there, maybe.

Clearly argent defender takes skill.

OT taunts, bear rezzez, bear retaunts. Problem solved.

A lot of people seem to think that the ideal raid comp is one without replenishment, which is dumb. You aren't gonna be winning the hard fights, like heroic Lich King, without replenishment.

With 1 of each class?

Tanks
Blood Death Knight
Feral Druid

Healers
Holy Paladin
Discipline Priest
Restoration/Elemental Shaman

DPS
Fury Warrior
Combat Rogue
Survival Hunter
Arcane Mage
Demonology Warlock

Flaws:
Blood pact instead of Commanding shout, so less health for tanks.
no 3% haste aura
no 6% extra healing
no extra crit chance taken on mobs
no extra spell hit chance on mobs
*no 5% spell crit* (present with the shaman in offspec)

[Doifer]

Tanks
Protection Warrior
Blood Death Knight

Healers
Holy Paladin
Restoration Shaman
Discipline Priest

Damage
Survival Hunter
Balance Druid
Assassination Rogue
Arcane Mage
Demonology Warlock

Buffs/Debuffs this raid is missing
3% increased healing that a Restoration Druid or Protection Paladin would bring
5% melee crit that a Fury Warrior or Feral Druid would bring. (Only missed by the Rogue and Hunter)
4% increased physical damage that a Combat Rogue or Arms Warrior would bring (Only missed by the Rogue and Hunter)
30% bleed damage that a Feral Druid or Arms Warrior would bring. (No on in the raid except the Warrior tank would benefit from this)

This is a caster heavy raid so it has the best possible Caster Buffs.

Look at it yourself, there is no other way to get this many buffs/debuffs under these circumstances.

Im sorry but 90% of these setups suggested would not be the best. Your lacking a key buff, replenishment. Your not killing Lich King without it, as was said earlier but ignored I believe.

[Markluzz]

Prot Paladin
Prot Warrior

Resto Druid
Resto Shaman
Disc Priest/Shadow off-spec, useful for fights needing slows like saurfang

Frost DK
Marks Hunter
Destruct Lock
Combat Rogue
Arcane Mage

with this set-up you recieve almost ever buff and the specs could compete in dps and do well.

Both of mine had it woo!

[Nopi]

Tanks:
Prot Warrior
Bear Druid

Heals:
Holy Paladin
Holy Priest
Resto Shaman/OS Elemental

DPS:
Demo Warlock
Arcane Mage
MM Hunter
Unholy DK
Mut Rogue

And where do you get your replenishment from?

[Gaarheid]

Seen a few setups without replenishment, i'd always go with a replenishment class/spec.

[Yasuu]

Tanks:
Prot Warrior
Bear Druid

Heals:
Holy Paladin
Holy Priest
Resto Shaman/OS Elemental

DPS:
Demo Warlock
Arcane Mage
Survival Hunter
Unholy DK
Mut Rogue

Only change I'd make tbh Survival for replenishment btw

[Dominate]

Blood pact instead of Commanding shout, so less health for tanks.

How exactly are you getting blood pact with a demo warlock?

[ieatcakelol]

We rolled all 11/12 icc 10 heroic with:

Feral druid
Prot warrior

Resto druid
Disc priest
Resto shaman

Frost DK
Ret paladin
MM hunter
Demo warlock
Moonkin

Completely destroys anything icc has to offer (bar lich king, although if the resto druid goes moonkin it'll be overpowered with starfall spam)

^ This baby right here.

Tanks:
DW Frost DK (saccing a little bit of threat for the 20% melee haste)
Prot Pally

Healers:
Disc Priest
Resto Shaman

DPS:
Balance Druid (clutch 3rd healer) (also buff city as BOOMKin)
Marksmanship Hunter
Arcane Mage
Combat Rogue
Destruction Warlock
Fury Warrior

This build, running just the 2 healers, gives you virtually every raid buff, except for an Improved Bleed, and a second Pally Judgement. It has no demo pact, but I think it's more important to have replenishment than that. You also have full access to utility spells that classes have to offer (mostly this means your Druid isn't tanking so he can B rez and innervate)

The DW Frost tank won't work in Cataclysm however. . . so, he'd have to be blood, or could be blood now and you'd loose the 20% melee haste.

Healing is definately possible, despite not having a Holy Pally. They're not as mandatory as people think. (but yah, they're dang good)
