Then the 24 hunters drop you in 3 seconds.

Or a 20. If we are being honest.
Of course it would take him/her a little more than 3 seconds.
Edit. My question is why didn't you have strength gear as Prot? I myself gear with Spirit/Agility pieces on my tanks, but that's not the norm. *Boggles* You the same?

LOL.
I usually gear Int + Spirit on my warrior tank. Is that wrong?
If you were a prot pally, all you really need to do is swap out your Weapon to go ret.

That's a perfectly viable choice in my opinion. Intellect makes you smarter so you can anticipate the opponents next move and avoid their hit. Everyone always talks about tank avoidance. Great gearing.
Additionally, Spirit is enormously useful for OOC regen. You can roll Troll to complement your spirit. And epicness.
Because like the troll says...
"And there's nothing you can do about it."
(If you don't know the reference to the last line, Troll Regen is OP - Forums - World of Warcraft )

HAHAHA Thank You Sally for the memories.
So, as you all know, I play a Shaman. I'm currently the best geared Shaman in the world (World of Warcraft) and I have multiple world DPS records on WowMeterOnline. So I go into this Battleground because I feel like gracing my battlegroup with my presence, right? Everyone is cheering as I enter. They don't bother putting down a mage table or healthstone because they know that they're not going to need it--I, the Darkness, has come.
So I cast Lightning Shield on myself, because that's what Shamans do. They call down MOTES OF ELECTRICITY FROM THE HEAVENS and they SURROUND THEMSELVES with DEADLY AMOUNTS OF LIGHTNING! All of my teammates are instantly electrocuted to death, but me? I merely bathe in the energy; it is my plaything. Even though my teammates are now charred corpses, they continue to cheer, because they know that I can solo this. The gates open. I run in. With Ghost Wolf, my movement speed is increased by
40% PERCENT
Horde sees me run by but they can't do anything about it because I'm a ghost and I'm wolfing at
40 PERCENT
a Blood Elf Paladin with Crusader Aura on bubbles and flees in terror when he sees me traveling at
40 PERCENT
They can hear the howl of my ghost wolf. They are all cowering--no, literally, they type the /cower emote and just stand there--as I cap the Stables. I cast WATERWALKING on myself--WATERWALKING, like Jesus, and I careen towards the Blacksmith. The Horde there see me coming and they just /afk the !@#$ out. I put down my totems before I start capping Blacksmith's flag. A Rogue tries to sap me--
BAM!
The Rogue is engulfed in flame as my Searing Totem SEARS him from the inside out! His leather clothing EXPLODES in a rain of fire that spirals around my beautiful female Draenei form as I continue to cap the Blacksmith. The fire rips through the Rogue's bones, but it doesn't even consider touching me--why? Because I've got
FIRE RESIST TOTEM
A Warlock swoops in in Demon Form and tries to Conflag me but his Conflag does 0 damage to me because of

A Troll Mage Slowfalls in and he Pyroblasts me but it is ineffective because of

Blacksmith caps. I mount up on my KAEL'THAS MOUNT--no, literally, I ride Kael'thas around, the Blood Elf--and head over to Farm, because I feel like eating some potatoes.
POTATOES. BOIL 'EM, MASH 'EM, STICK 'EM IN A STEW. AND HEARTS. SHAMAN DESIRES PALADIN HEARRRRRRRTS.
Just then, I see something through my Sentry Totem. It's the WoW General Forums! --People are complaining about how overpowered I am! They're saying that Shamans need to be nerfed. I smirk.
That's when I decide to take out my HAND OF RAGNAROS.
EIGHTY POINT FOUR DAMAGE PER SECONNNNND
I slam the Hand of Ragnaros down into the ground. Arathi Basin shatters like glass--the ground falls out from under me. The fabric of SPACE itself CRUMBLES beneath my feet. I cackle as I enter the REAL REALM, becoming a TRUE ENTITY existing ON THE PLANET EARTH. I am a Draenei walking around New York--the cops try to stop me, but they forget all about me when they take a gander at my
STONECLAW TOTEM
STONE AND CLAW COMBINED. CAN YOU TAKE IT?
But then, in the spaces between the gathering crowds, I see something. Someone. The smirk on my face deteriorates. .. it's one of the Horde. A Troll.
I thought I had destroyed Arathi Basin. I thought I had won the Battleground. But all that time--
--But all that time--...
.. there he was. Just standing there. Regenerating 5, health,

second.
I glared at the Troll.
The Troll glared back at me.
Silence flooded the world.
"And there's nothing you can do about it," the Troll whispered.

Rets legit bro. I love it. I run with a little more hp then most rets (2.2kish self buffed) and sacrifice a small amount of AP, but most of the time I ret it up I've got some healers with me, because well we really are hunter food if we dont have some heals. It will be interesting to see what its like in MoP when we get the speed buff from judgement. But without HoF I dont see it making a huge difference. But theres nothin quite like 1 shoting other geared 24 twinks. However, I've fought some well geared warriors as ret, and had a hell of a time with them, i drop them no prob in prot, but every strength has its weakness.
