Hi,
After years of healing I wanna go back to tank. So right now I'm trying to find the right tank and this is not about 'meta', but this also is not about "It doesn't matter, if you aren't top 100 guild". Let's just asume all tanks were perfectly balanced in stats and all that matters is gameplay.
The tanks I'm trying to compare are
Pally/Dk/Warrior and while I know the first two pretty good I just can't find what's good on Protection Warriors. Really. In raiding, what's good about Prot Warrior?
Raiding his usually pretty static so all his mobility seems pretty wasted for me (and beside from that, the mobility from Paladin is enough in m+). Also he doesn't have alot selfheal and can't mitigate damage spikes as good as the other tanks. Also his damage is pretty low right now, but for the sake of fnding the 'fun' let's say he does just as much damage as the other tanks. I also think the utilities a warrior brings are pretty crappy. AoE Spellreflect seems like a niche talent.
So what is the point of playing protection warrior in Shadowlands? Don't get me wrong. I think i'm just bad with him, but somehow he seems to lack something. I wish I could find a reason why I should pick warrior and not Paladin or DK. Paladin is just too much sparkle for me and DK is slow what doesn't make him bad, but it's boring.
I would go to the venthyr and maybe condemn is the one skill he is missing to increase the fun, but I doubt that.
