Could be said for the whole game, I feel like half the time it’s just pure theory crafting.

Like you got people waiting for a tank a decently geared deep prot warrior rocks up, how many raids would seriously turn them back? Like 10% if that.

I beg you, go deep prot and see how many raids you get invited to tank for.

They don't play the game, certainly don't raid if they think people want a prot warrior. you can't find more degenerate players who take the game seriously than warriors who want to tank in raids, hog all the loot and carry the raid for everyone else. All of them know how useless deep prot is.

I main tanked all of MC and BWL before I quit the game due to burn-out (due to constant gold farming because I refused to buy gold). When my first guild broke up due to loot goblins I got into a second guild immediately. There wasn't a word said or asked about playing deep prot, they just saw a geared as fuck warrior tank and knew they wanted him in their raid. It's really that simple.

Cool anecdata.

If you head over to warcraft logs it tells an entirely different story.
