Isn’t it a bit too early in the expansion to conclude that? Most people barely got together their honor sets.
If you don’t even have 10 mil HP as a guardian, you’re missing several green PvP items. You might just be undergeared.
Mmm, so are you doing mostly arena or battlegrounds? The idea as a PvP tank is that you’re focusing on objectives or are being a support to those around you. You don’t directly duel with people to land the killing blow.
In DF I had no issue handling one-on-one combat when defending a GY and so far it hasn’t been looking too bad in TWW. The only thing that is really broken and they never bothered to fix is the extra damage tanks gets from siege vehicles that basically one shot you.
When do you think ‘spamming’ rage on IronFur is a good thing? Beyond a single stack I mean? If you’re fighting an enemy player your rage would be better spend on trash or maul that both damages them and gives you a direct absorb shield.
Ironfur is mostly an armor buff that works against physical damage and auto-attacks from a boss. Players usually by-pass the armor component completely.
Are you currently Chose of Elune or of the Claw?
Elune is pretty useless, sadly. I had to switch to Claw which seems to be the clear winner in extra dps, utility and self-heal.
