What makes DK better than Warden at tanking?

Gulnagel · November 2017

I understand that templar still holds the crown as number 1 healer, I have both a templar and a warden. I tried healing with warden but templar still holds the crown, warden feels more clunky in the animations and falls short as a healer against a templar in my opinion and many others I've asked.

However my warden just collects dust as my main crafter now, I'm thinking of building him into a tank. But I'm not even going to bother if it turns out I gimp myself and may as well turn to DK tank.

Beyond the obvious of Taunt and Survive, can you debuff the boss buff the group and control the crowd? Then you can tank.

DKs can do these things for sure but so can other classes.

Chains. Engulfing (only necessary if you feel like purging all mdks)

Everytgibg else can be done as well by other classes.

both can be amazing trial tanks.
Stop with this ''warden is weak waaaah'' threads please.
Its dominating in PvP and also tank/stam warden builds are competitive to Dk in end game pve.

very little, but that's all that's needed for most people to choose them over other options. it does not matter if it wins by an inch or a mile, winning is winning.

I can see the portals being a superior choice, but how much more difficult is it to execute is my question? A guild-mate told me that Warden would be like the #1 choice for vDSA when the changes to portals were implemented (since you can both heal and tank with warden in a way DK`s can´t do)

PS: Will check out that warden build when I get the time for it
