Hey all through tbc my main was my druid which was a tank. I tanked all the way up to Black Temple and had alot of fun doing it.
When WotLK came out i went to Death Knight but im starting to think i should level my Druid again. But here is my problem, I have changed router and other things and now i lag ..... Alot! So im just wondering is it still worth it to level my druid and tank? As i know i enjoy tanking with my Druid more than anything on my Death Knight. I havnt tanked for quite a long while so i dont know is it possible to pass as a tank with lag? I usualy only OT in raids.
So my question is, Is it still possible to pass as a good tank with lag as a druid? Or is it a waste of time and will i just die or loose agro?
If you think it is worth it do you think you could help me with a build? As i havnt played my druid since tbc.
Thanks for your input!

Low level experience, disregard if opinion not wanted:
I had 800ms latency the other day and can bearly (lose 1 mob every other pull) hold aggro against a 9+ level (as in the mage was 9 levels higher) mage using Blizzard. (Demo roar, swipespam, glyphed maul here and there)
I'd say you should be fine as long as your DPS have Omen.

Depends how bad your lag is. I used to play from taiwan to a west coast server, but would get around 350-400ms. Pretty bad for stuff like pvp, but for pve play, i was still able to perform decently. Anything higher then 500 though is probably pushing it.

if you're able to OT on your DK, then you'll be able to OT on your druid. easily. assuming you know what you're doing, and you've got competent healers, you wont be dying or losing aggro very often at all. the + side to off tanking as a druid, for the single tank fights, you can just slap on some hit gear and kitty dps!

Meowliekacat i only get 3000 to 5000 ms when in raids when not in raids it will usualy stay at about 2000, so im always lagging and ive got used to it now.
DrDrako ive never OT on my death knight only ever dps'ed with it but ive tanked alot on my druid before when i didnt have my lag.

A router change caused this lag? I'd consider A) a check-up on my router settings or B) a new router.
