So I'm leveling a warrior, currently low 70's, and as I've started to level as prot recently I decided to tank today. Haven't tanked since I did last boss in UK normal as bear, but I figured it'd be fine, normal dungeon, standing at 12K buffed HP I thought "can't be hard".
Turned out, it could. I dunno what happened really, but the healing priest(9K mana@69) had to drink after every three-mob group, a DPS thought I had too bad gear, all that(running heirloom shoulders, chest and mace, northrend green shield and some late outland and early northrend greens).
What I'm really wondering is this: I think it shouldn't be too hard to keep me up with that health, do you disagree?
And: I charge in, shockwave, thunderclap, cleave(glyphed)/devastate/revenge. This should be enough to keep aggro on three mobs, or? They seemed to get on the loose to people attacking them, and I figured that's because they didn't target my target, but one charged in at the healer too, which is a tad worse. I'm "used" to bear lolol I swipe and maul a bit, so it was a bit of a change. Anything wrong with this for thrash?
Any answers appreciated (: Not used to tanking or taking charge(pun intended), so other advice for a to-the-core-newbie-tank is appreciated too.
