Heroics

Not much happened over the weekend, but I had my first (belated) taste of Heroics.

It was only the first boss run for Sethekk Halls, but at least I had the chance to view the trash mob clears which are apparently the real challenge rather than the bosses themselves.

They definitely hit harder and any form of CC would be welcome. Good focused DPS will still be the key though. Without CC, a good tank and healer would be able to compensate. A lot more thinking on your feet will be required since the mobs do tend to have more abilities that will require adaptation.

So, which would make a better tank for Heroics? Honestly, my feel at the moment is Paladin. As long as he can be kept alive, being able to tank multiple mobs looks to be the winner here. My feel is that a Paladin is much more able to front-load Threat, enabling the DPS to start faster and kill faster. However, the Paladin's lower Stamina will require much closer attention from healers.

Other than that, Eld should be finishing off Zangarmarsh soon. To a certain degree, Shev is a bit stuck at the post-40 doldrums (I really hate the 40-60 grind...). Will have to pick up a bit on that slack...
