Best PvE Tank at 60?

[Wuts]

What would be the best pve tank at 60, which could also play well in bgs. Also, wondering if there are any 60 raiding guilds left still on US?

I'd say a BiS warrior since their T3 is prot

Well, dont forget that a paladin/dk could buy that warrior T3 too, no class specification in the BMAH.

All their T's are prot, except T2.5 (and ZG)

So I'd go for Warrior unless you're planning on spending a lot of gold on T3 (feral druid + rogue T3 could work for example, but would be expensive, same goes for paladins with warrior T3).

Warrior tanks also do the highest DPS of all classes.

I would still say Prot Pally purely for their ability to self heal if the healer goes down. Group or solo, I find my 60 Paladin better overall than my 60 Warrior.

Even T2,5 is tank.

As long as DK aint got no death runes, he is absoloute useless on 60, even on 70. Just kill him in his 10 sec rune recharging and hes dead again.

You miss that PvE in the thread title?

Cause all runes are down at the same time and doesn't have 70% resil+, Death Strike, Rune Tap, potions + alchemy trinket.

Jeah i miss the PvE part xD

But it still takes about 8-10 seconds to get your first two death runes ready and its death siphon i was talking about, the only skill that does some dmg.

Screams of the Past on the US realm Draka.

If you're PvE-ing you won't need to heal yourself, problem with Paladins without Tier 3 is the lack of avoidance, in raids prot paladins die really fast.

I've got a paladin myself and even though he has a tad more health than my warrior he's generally dead before healers can heal him (or self-heal for that matter).

With Vengeance stacked Sacred Shield basically keeps you alive. Not sure what you have been playing my Warrior dies much faster overall than my Paladin. I'm clearly doing something chronically wrong on my Warrior then...
