Just to highlight.... it is best to use Two tanks and Two warlocks to tank the bosses switching as required. (That is one of each on each side).

[opticalrush]

you need two :tongue: are warriors should use power blink :yell:

[Vargen]

Actually, locks are pretty good at tanking casters.
1. They generate a shitload of threat, so keeping aggro shouldn't be much of a problem :tongue: .
2. They have a lot of health. So they can take a decent amount of pounding before they die. Their health buffer is even larger if they have soul link; which will increase the damage they can take before they die by 43% ( 1-(100/(100-30))*100% ).
3. The only class that, currently, mitigates more spell damage are warriors (10% from defencive stance).

Even more reduction if they have a Void out with the -10% dmg reduc....

[Bastet]

i think its only physical dmg, but felhunter gives resist bonuses, which you will need on that fight (the emp shadow bolts ppl for close to 4,5k)

Correct, it's only physical.

Ok, no one so far has said 'why' locks need to tank at all.

maybe i should look at tactics, but it's so much effort

Vek'lor is immune to melee - so guess what!
They also both use proximity aggro not threat.
Locks can build high aggro quickly and allow us to crank up the DPS to make sure we down them within 15 mins.

Because Vek'lor is immune to physical damage :tongue: .
 
Edit: Bah TL beat me to it.

In addition the other reasons are high HP, soul link and the shadow res buffs we can get.

One thing I did think of btw they way, is that with the felhunter out I of course loose the blood pact which drops me to around 4.4k hp with SR gear on. I think that in each tank 'group' we will need another lock to give us that imp buff as apprently the locks need to get around 8k hp.

If anyone can cook food for +stamina effects or have any recommendations of other pots/food we can use please let me know and I'll try and get a hold of them.

(p.s To the other locks Felhunter buff and Priest 10 min SR buff do stack, however GoTW is cancelled out by the Priest Buff. )
