    To be fair, I never used frost outside of heroics, it was always blood for raids, but all you ever needed for threat was D&D -> Howling Blast/Blood Boil spam. That was it. Acclimation was great for Heroics, you could eat Shadow Blasts and things like that.

    Frost tanks, you won't be missed.

    Man, I can't wait for cata...with all the DW blood tanks. Not to mention DW unholy people who will claim to be tanks.

    If it worked in a heroic for them, it's obviously viable for everything else.

    You don't like DW tanking, so obviously no one else should.

    I won't miss trying to heal an entire party with aggro, since a dw frost tank is using fast weapons and can't hold aggro for shit. HB being good snap aggro is a myth.
    Frost DW tank with 2 fast tank weapons is a bad tank. With 2 slow weapons, and tabbing through the mobs, a frost tank shouldn't have aggro problems.

    I'm pretty sure he/she is referring to the DW Blood tanks/UH tanks that pop up now. Those two types are inferior to their 2h counterparts. That's not opinion, it's fact.

    I won't miss Frost tanking particularly, but I'll miss Blood dps. It's how my main has been specced since his creation, though I have a DW Frost tanking spec as secondary.

    I still can't understand why they didn't just keep Frost as the tanking tree, like it really is right now. Have no idea what to do when Cataclysm hits - learn to use Unholy as dps, or Blood as tanking? Right now I'm leaning on playing my warlock as main. At least warlocks get actual positive changes -_-
    Peace through love, understanding and superior firepower.

    What I'm going to miss most is queueing up for the random as dps, and getting a Frost DK DW tank using dual Rimefang's Claws, and constantly pulling aggro on bosses.

    DW frost or 2H UH are the DPS specs right now, 2H blood is the tanking spec. As soon as you graduate from random heroics, that is.

    Blood has more tanking talents than Frost.
