Give us a caster tank

Reverting the class to a DPS spec with some minor buffing capbility is practically reworking it already, so at this point it would’nt be much of a hassle in my opinion.

Vek’lor in AQ40
Maulgar add in GL
Leo in SSC
Illidan in BT

I have tanked those back in the old days as a warlock, and i can’t really remember any other bosses that required caster tanks ever (+ one illidari council member which was done with mage tanks). Vek’lor was immune to all physical abilities, the tanking of all the others based upon mitigating the incoming shadow damage (+ in case of the council spellstealing for mages) that warlocks could do the best. Back then, not now.

That’s kind of a single approach, isn’t it? Not fit to any fight nowadays, not unless you make a boss that is physically unreachable for melee but then you will have other problems.

I liked to tank with a warlock, but there is no real need for a caster tank today tbh.
