What will the tanks do here? eh?
What the hell is that orange glow swords man doing all the way in the back!? He seems to be running toward the dragon... but is he really?
This is what I think really happened...
He and his fellow USELESS tanks were sitting on the back doing nothing but being bored... what else could they be doing? But when they heard that they were going to take a screenshot for the preview site... they all started running... i can also see an undead rogue next to the swords man... SO, were they running after the dragon? NO! They were running after the spotlight!
Blue! I demand an answer for the sakes of all of the WoW tanks!

As someone who has playtested Blackwing Lair many a time, let me say that there is no "useless" class, and tanks most assuredly have their place on a raid within. :)
EDIT: And that includes the encounter you linked to, if I wasn't clear, heh.[ post edited by Caydiem ]

Q u o t e: Same old Cay. You always give answers that lead to more questions. Ones that you will never answer. Why not try answering a question fully? You say tanks and front line classes are usefull even in the situation, why not explain how? The mob is not on ground, he is in air. If you try to go near him you will fall to your doom. Only class usefull in that situation is ranged. So, give us a real answer.
It is an unreleased dungeon; part of the fun is discovering how encounters work. I am not going to explain in-depth strategies for a dungeon that is not even available at the moment. It is up to the playerbase to discover and work through said encounters... not I.

Vhasraine, I can't give any such information about an encounter like that, particularly one that has not yet been released. We didn't say "Oh yes, Onyxia takes flight," before that was released; players learned it for themselves. The same thing holds true here. I am not allowed to give such spoilers, and I honestly don't want to ruin it for folks. :)
