Death Knight tanks fight over weapons that may also be decent for other classes, like Druid's and Hunters. Luckily there are a few easily accessible weapons in the game that make replacing that craftable Titansteel Destroyer a little bit easier. We will stick to 2H Weapons, which will of course require the rune of the Stoneskin Gargoyle for tanks.
Edge of Ruin - This is a great 2h Axe with lots of stamina and a plethora of strength, which us DK's eat up. Death Knight tanks appreciate the increase in strength to increase our damage and thus improve our threat.
The Edge of Ruin drops from the Champions Cache in Heroic Trial of the Champion.
Tyrannical Beheader - This 2h Axe is an ilvl 232 with lots of stamina and strength. Without question this is a big update from the Titansteel Destroyer, but may remain marginal when compared to the ilvl 219 Edge of Ruin. The main reason is because it contains haste, which is kind of a toss up stat for Death Knights. So, it's still an upgrade, so feel free to roll against those Hunters and Druids.
The Tyrannical Beheader drops from Heroic Pit of Saron on the last boss.
No Druid or Hunter will roll on Tyrannical Beheader, unless they don't know anything.
ReplyDeleteI've ran into plenty of players in WoW that don't know anything. Hell, I've been in countless groups that just like to roll on stuff that looks good on their character, regardless of specs.
ReplyDeleteI have seen a shammy roll on the Tyrannical Beheader, thankfully he lost ha
