hello wowhead
i recently started gearing my alt druid for tanking and i have decent gear now
there is one problem though, i am taking way to much damage and i dont have a clue why
http://eu.battle.net/wow/en/character/frostmane/nomah/simple
there is the armory link
i am using demo shout and try to get infected wounds on as many as possible targets but it wont help
(and ofcourse try to keep all the other stuff going as well, the EJ way)
did i miss some huge point as bear or should i just deal with the damage and hope for a good CC group?

I can tank just fine with zero gems, stamina stacked gems, hell i could tank in my resto gear.
(...)
PS: Having bear glyphs should help a bit.
Hell, I could tank with my resto glyphs!
c wut I did thar?
Jokes aside, Feral Aggression is NOT a pure kitty talent. Mandatory? No. Convenience talent? Yep.
The point in Stampede is far worse. Haste is le sucks for bears. But putting one point in KotJ is kind of lame, so I personally dropped a point in Endless Carnage to get a second point in KotJ (I Pulverize as soon as I have 3 stacks of Lacerate anyways, regardless of the Pulverize buff). Or you could drop Stampede and Feral Aggression, lose the convenience and get 3/3 KotJ. Your choice.
And yeah change your glyphs, even though you have the most important ones already (Mangle and Maul). I would suggest replacing the Feral Charge glyph with Frenzied Regen. As to prime glyphs, replace Shred and Rip with Berserk and Lacerate. Even though those glyphs do very little tbh (I usually keep the Rip glyph in place instead of the Lacerate one because I switch to kitty when stuff isn't hitting me).
Edit: btw, it's demo roar, not shout. We ain't warriors brah!

thanks for the responses,
on gemming should i go pure agi gems? ie:
red/prismatic - agi
blue - agi/stam (if bonus worth it, if not pure agi)
yellow - agi/dodge (2 times for the meta)
changed my glyphs around, although they are only threat it might help abit (only using Frenzied while raiding, looking at healers dieing on Harvest in Deadmines)
on feral aggression vs KotJ,
i think FA wins since i can get 3 stacks of FFF on pull = more dmg done with everything after that,
as for KotJ, i try not to run in with enrage active (since my whole problem is taking to much damage) rendering the talent worthless.
(i use a macro for it
/cancelaura Enrage
/cast Enrage)
might switch the talents when i feel my damage input is fine

Pop barkskin at the same time. I even got a macro that uses both barkskin and Enrage while I charge in.
Thorns is also nice before the pull btw.
