Mythic+ Tanking Masterclass Episode 1: The Fundamentals That Actually Matter

Good tanking in Mythic+ is about much more than surviving pulls or playing whichever spec happens to be S-tier or meta.


A strong tank controls the dungeon. That means knowing the route, gathering packs cleanly, positioning mobs properly, keeping threat under control and understanding which enemies actually need to die first.


In this new episode of the Mythic+ Tanking Masterclass, I go through the core concepts that apply to every tank spec, including routes, gathering and positioning, aggro, priority targets, cleave and funnel damage, interrupts, stops, defensive cooldowns, kiting and chaining pulls.


A lot of these things sound basic, but they are the things that make runs feel smooth, safe and predictable. They also become more important the higher you push, because small mistakes in positioning, cooldown usage or target priority can quickly turn into wipes.

This is not a class guide or another tier list. It is about the fundamentals behind good tanking, and how to make better decisions from pull to pull.


If you are learning to tank, trying to become more consistent, or looking to push higher Mythic+ keys, the full video goes through each of these areas with practical examples.
