I've yet to have any problems with her after they fixed the intial bugs, even on tier 11 delves when I'm on a healer. She does rely on her opener to get good initial threat to allow you to burst handily, so it sounds like you are more looking for her to have more out of opener threat, which I wholeheartily agree with.
She's worked great as a tank when I'm playing healers, I don't expect her to work as a tank if I'm playing a role other than healer. Adding the orbs from ritual sites would go a long way to making it viable for a dps to use her as a tank though.
The Agony thing is what kills it for me. Maybe if it would appear and NOT drain her health when I am obviously having trouble keeping her alive? That'd be nice. 9_9 DPS don't need her as a tank.
She does have an AoE taunt, it just won't hit the nearby mobs if they aren't properly engaged at the same time. But I agree it is a bit of a pain due to its cooldown, since it necessitates waiting on it for new pulls or popping your own defensives if going early.
I know she does really well tanking in healer spec tricksing threat onto her as a rogue. Also, weren't people clearing ? week 1 as healers?
Yeah... No. I have no trouble with Alleria in any role, so long as I'm in the correct one myself. If she's tanking, I'm healing her and it's going as smooth as me dps and her heals, etc.
on my new dinged char i choose her as tank and do 4x bounty T11 each day i have accumulated lots of keys from lvl 80+ alts each week and then i make her go dps when im geared
just be a trickster rogue with hour-long misdirect and she's a better tank than most players
this is straight lies tank valeera clears dps valeera on damage every delve ive done as healer vs being tank and having her as dps. Her tank damage speeds it up so much and you can just use pings to get her to aggro what u want.
Article writer doesn't know what they're talking about. Tank Valeera is fine in 11's for me.
only place where tank Valeera didn't perform to excellence while I healed on double ? Nullaeus, but that gave me a run for my money even with a fully decked-out raid tank toonI guess the author wasn't playing healer while doing delves with tank Valeera
The Greatest insult any developer can get:- They don't play their own game.And it shows. Any player, even newbies could see these problems and come up with solutions. But they don't. The only logical reason would be that they don't play what they created. Enormous amount of indicators shows that.From the start, every week (!) i test Tank Valeera on multiple characters, and she dies 9x faster than in DPS. It's comical.It's really embarrassing. Shame on this company.
What did you expect from a Blood Elf Rogue ? 🤦♂️
Is this AI slop? She's a great tank?
I'm usually pretty positive towards Wowhead articles but you made quite the oopsie here:
