As long as you have a smart healer and an adequately equipped tank, the tank can easily go dual wield or two handed (or Warrior buckler line) with little trouble. Tanks gain a ton of hate by doing both dps and taunting, it's just more productive. I have my raid Templar, Fury, Paladin, Berserker and Monk so I have expierence on both ends. Complete bs huh? Nah, just people who know what they're doing. I cannot stand fighting one group of mobs at a time with a kickass tank/healer combo and supporting dps. On my Paladin I do Nest farm runs for example, complete the zone in < 30 minutes and I make a total of about 10 pulls in the entire zone. Have to love Amends, Consecrate and all the AOE loving a Pally has. And about healers not using their power...They're conserving it for the moment when someone screws up, which happens alot for some groups. I play a Conjuror too though, so I can understand the comic and find it funny, but only true with a poor tank / healer combo. <div></div>
