Introduction to Moonkin Tanking - The Panzerkin

[gladiator101]

Well i have wanted to donate b/c i am tired of bieng a lazy leecher!

OK, i was reading some different specs on WoWWiki.com and i came across this.

Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft - This is the Panzerkin Tanking build. A video of this person tanking can be found here at....


Vengeance 3 - Rebirth | World of Warcraft @ Curse.com

It includes this person tanking prince, shows a glimpse of netherspite, show high king, and it also shows Gruul!

The original forum post can be found here on the WOW european forum: WoW-Europe.com Forums -> Lithanials' Guide to Moonkin Tanking v1.1

This mainly interested me b/c i always figured moonkin as just a gimped mage, not as a tank. but not alot of people notice that moonkin have the same 400% increased armor boost that feral tanks do, so this guy built his spec to do damage as well as have armor. I thought this was interesting and that i should share it with the public. Enjoy!

Doubt a moonkin would have any benefits over a feral tank though. Both when it comes to aggro and survivability.

You have to get 490 defence in moonkin because you dont pick up the talent points in feral.

415 with talent points in dire bear

EDIT: Getting 490 defence in leather is hard!

Barkskin is castable in moonkin = win

Barkskin is castable in moonkin = win

And insect swarm.

the thing is, the build that guy is using needs some tuning though...

I used to tank in moonkinform all the time and this was my build

Talent Calculator - World of Warcraft

you'd be surprised how much more survivability there is in this build
