That would actually still require some effort for some people… just put it in the inkeeper for 1 copper.
At EVERY innkeeper then, i cba traveling to some off-site innkeeper in dustwallow marsh or something -_-
If you wanted Shadowmourne maybe you should’ve played DPS from the start…lol.
Tanks are the last to get SM unfortunately. Sorry mate. You can gbid tho.
That’s a Legendary status weapon for yall. My personal opinion is that they should be very hard to obtain. That is just how it is, I been playing since og vanilla and “Only” got 1x warglaive back in the day and that’s as close as i’ve ever gotten to taste of Legendary weapons. Shadowmourne was out of the question, u only saw that beast in random bgs and rarely in raids. oh lil edit action needed ( now ppl prolly just buys it inside a guild )

If you wanted Shadowmourne as a tank or non-2h dps spec you should’ve discussed it with your guild as early as at the start of the expansion. Like “I will carry you guys with my tanking but you gotta promise me 1st/2nd SM”.
If our guild’s blood tank wanted SM prio he probably could’ve gotten it. If the tank is a warr or pally he probably would have to be a big achiever in the arena or something.
shadowmourne is dk tank bis, and is about 1k dps single target for us. who gets it tho is decided by how much ur guild likes you, numbers dont really factor into this, considering game is mosty done when u craft a few
Shadowmourne “only” gives 800 dps to a blood dps, so I’d be shocked if it was anything above 400 dps for a blood tank
The problem is that 4 of the first 5 legendaries weren’t hard to get, they were just complete RNG. They were a drop, and a few crafting materials in the case of TF and HoR.
Even Atiesh was easy, 40 RNG drops followed by kill 2 bosses and followed by kill a special boss in Stratholme.
Life isnt fair and you cant obtain everything in life, go woke go broke !
Want BiS Melee dps weapon then be DPS …
Or go play on some obscure private server
current sim has it at 1,5k for blood dps, these look like surveilant numbers without hysteria etc
as tank its a bit over 1,2k dps for me currently, and 600 from the 2nd bis
1.5k is over no weapon, most people tend to compare it to the second best weapon though 
I’ve killed general vezax every reset since week 1 of ulduar and don’t have flare, but ok.
Well when there’s talk about a bis weapon X being Y amount of dps, it’s always in comparison to 2nd bis. So I guess according to your dubious quality numbers we’re now at SM being +600 dps for blood tank who frenzies himself (lol).
Even a blood dps kinda griefs the raid by giving himself Hysteria instead of a feral or fury warr. A blood tank casting it on himself is just… lmao
No content is hard enough in wotlk that you would make legendary gearing decisions purely on the numbers.
That being said, not everyone or even most people who can use a legendary or want one, will get one. This is kind of a key concept behind the tag and the item design: the scarcity.
I wouldn’t give shadowmourne to a tank in our group, but neither will we just look at a dps chart and decide solely that way.
I think the whole point of ICC patch changes was to let everyone who wants that legendary get it.
Even with the changes there simply won’t be enough time for that lol.
Their stated intent with the changes was to make it take 10 weeks rather then up to 18. Idk about you but we have:
2 rets
2 Warriors
4 DKs
In our guild. All of them want this. Other groups are even heavier in this way. I doubt we will have more then a full year of ICC like would be necessary to farm 8 Smournes.
what makes you assume that im using hysteria on myself lol? hysteria on feral is 800+ dps on a good day
and its 1,2k compared to toc bis weapon, 258 fleshrender
I ran the sim myself just now with the latest bis tanking setup from Blight club.
A Shadowmourne Blood tank deals around 4.1k total single target dps. With 2nd bis, the low contest Oathbinder, he only deals 280 dps less, so the difference is about as much as I originally expected. Even when compared to the same setup with Fleshrender (not sure why, but you seem hung up on it) the difference is just 600 dps. Your numbers are wack bro.
I’m not even against blood tanks getting SM btw. In fact I would find it cringe if a blood tank who’s a long time solid guildie would get passed up just because dps classes gain more from it. Just, you know, don’t make up lies to support your position m8.
