Hi guys,

I'm new to the forums and wanted to ask w/c if these two morphs would be better for a DK Tank(HP build) that i'm doing.

    Well, if your trying to keep the single Boss Occupied, then Heroic Slash is the way to go. If your trying to take down multiple mobs, which is really the DPS's job, then Deep Slash for the multiple enemies.

    Either one gives nice added effects good for tanking, so it all comes down to what your tanking on. Me, I would prefer to load up single target abilities than AoE abilities for traditional tanking. Heroic can help you with Ultimate Gain, something that is harder now since we don't get Ultimate from Crits anymore like we used to.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    Thank you for the very helpful input. I'l go with Heroic Slash then.

    I would also second Heroic Slash for the ultimate generation.

    Heroic Slash - Mass Hysteria - Siphoning Strikes. constant stamina and magicka while maintaining the minor maim debuff on your enemies. Power Extraction for more damage and being able to reduce the debuff on weapon damage.

    You can always go Bolstering Darkness for better damage management.
