Paladin Tanking
 
As far as some of the stuff I have read, it seems that they use stuns and such to be able to tank. Are paladins able to tank with a 2-hander since they use stuns to keep off the damage as much as possible?

It seems one would be needed to keep the aggro on the paladin himself to do proper damage.

Yes, ya have to use Blind or Stun. Paladins are great tanks don't let people steer ya other wise.

Cantheron 04-26-2011 03:42 PM

oh yea, I know they are great tanks. I was wondering if they can be viable 2-handed tanks?

Paladins main weapon is a FA, essentially. Using a shield is really mostly for the resists while tanking casting mobs. Or using some awesome 1h -shrug-

All their aggro comes from spells + or - some weapon procs.

Blind is one of the best tanking abilities ever if used right. No ranged agro? Sounds like a busload full of win to me.

One question I have about paladin tanking: I understand they use their 3 stuns to generate most of their aggro. Now the maximum target level for these stuns is 55, how do they generate aggro vs 56+ targets aside from their (low compared to other classes) dps and taunt button?
