Not only is this name made of win (yup, sucker for German references, German language represent!) but Linedan is posting one of the most solid guide series out there, how to level from 1-80 as protection warrior. He’s basically doing what I wanted to do and kinda fell flat on, he’s leveling another warrior, to show you how it’s done protection-style. Leveling builds and guides are still really popular, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better one out there.

So get the good stuff from Linedan and add him to your prot warrior blogrolls, well worth the read.

Gravity is a DK tank, but so far I haven’t found him to be very DK-centric. Great read all around. One of my favorite posts of his is Learning to Raid Lead and if you’re remotely interested in leading a raid sometime, you should definitely have a look.

Keep up the fabulous work, Gravity.

Daraxxus, Spicytunas and Yakra tagged me for this blog me-me. Instructions are easy. Go to the sixth folder of your screenshots folder, and post the sixth picture, then tag six other bloggers.

Now, first problem: I don’t have six folders in there. I only have raw screenshots, and an edited folder. So instead, I will present you with the sixth image in my screenshot folder:

 
Ah, the Barrens. Whose horde heart is not singing at the sight? Just drown out all your horrible memories of Barrens chat and Mankrik’s wife.

That was pretty dull. I have a screenshot gallery so I just went with the sixth screenshot in there.

 
Meet Tratsch, my former main, affliction warlock. This was our first run of that instance, and to this day, Dire Maul holds a special place in my heart. I totally love that instance, all of its wings.

Last but not least, I went and took the sixth down from the most current one, and ended up with our Sartharion killshot:

 
There ya go! And now for the tagging of the very few people in the WoW blogosphere that haven’t been tagged yet:

• Durnic from ORLY Factor
• Yasura from Heals, Smites and Prayers
• Naissa from Naissa’s Rage
• Dezdemona from Will Tank for Healz
• Drug from Shields Up!
• Jagerbombz from Hoof ‘n Healz

• Anglachel over at The Meatshield Diaries has written a two part guide to enchantments for tanks
• Durnic at Orlyfactor has looked at gems for tanks in WotLK
• Bizzam at Tank Hard is also looking at tanking gems and enchants
  
• Rochelle at Tank Hard is looking at the glyph changes coming with 3.0.8

Thanks to those bloggers for some excellent guides.

 
You may start mocking me now, as I was fumbling my way through the English language and demonstrated my lack of knowledge about Arms and Fury in general. I think it’s time to respec some time to be a more versatile warrior. Nevertheless, I hope some of you will enjoy.

Thanks for having me, Leala and Rae, and everyone else should check out their website for more podcasts.

While I am tossing out links, I would also like to mention new awesome tanking blogs on the scene:

• Yakra’s Mirror Shield
• Durnic’s ORLY Factor
• Talldar’s Warriortanking
• Albinobeard’s Defensive Stance

Protection warriors, the world is our oyster!

Today I have two new ones:

• Jatheak’s WoW Blog – he’s starting with the premise of rolling a new warrior and guide the warrior to 70, which is always a commendable endeavor. We are prot warriors, we must be legion.
• Big and Beautiful – Arudar’s blog about warrior tanks. Started with a very interesting article about our ‘Oh Shit’ skills, so thumbs up from me.

As announced by Matticus and Azaura today, some of the big-name healing bloggers have joined forces to create PlusHeal.com. Priests, paladins, druids, shamans, Plusheal has ‘em all. Enjoy.
