Earth Shaman - you really could add a Tank Shaman Spec next Expansion

Your the one using the term Balance by the way. But a lot of the time a DH runs into the issue of poor dps, and poor for tanking and at best only there for the buff.

Luckily this patch DH are decent as tank, but for havoc players feels meh.
It would be nice to have them have another option.
Talking about Lore, its been stretched so much in recent times you could make any class have a spec orientated around anything and it would make sense to be honest.

But given the Legion were defeated etc and a DHā€™s sole purpose is now missing, would it not also stand to reason they evolved and learnt to ā€˜Supportā€™ others in things. So a support spec, would actually work I reckon.

I am not talking about the meta balance, as obviousā€¦ . I was talking about your view of compensating the spec with less specs because all others have more. This balance doesnt have to be balanced

and demo-demo lock (the one that transofmrs) as tank too

I want to tank with my hunter too if shaman can tank !

Then the class needs to be in a good spot most of the time as a means of compensation for not really having any other choice. If your a dps and are DH your stuck, you either suck or dont (from a numbers balance POV and not skill).

Tank is not always the best option as this role is limited to just 2 spots and so many guilds dont need one.

Iā€™d quite like a tank spec. My earth ele on a 5 min CD isnā€™t great in some areas.

Just add +Agi to all shields.
While youā€™re at it add +Int to all those Enh axes that are rewards in boxes. Iā€™ve had so many rewards I couldnā€™t use, ruined the joy of an item drop.

with +agi on shields we could have those Swashbuckler rogues tooā€¦

i would say let them scale with int ? why not, it will be a heavily magical tank, using earth magic to bolster his/her defense.

could be a nice change.
