    For the love of god, do something about the fear mechanic. We are, one paladin being hit by a bus, away from not being able to do Sparkles and to some extent the spider. Can we get a response from Silius on his feelings about "Fear". If this is how its going to be, then I'll start leveling a Paladin alt.

    This needs to be fixed. It's idiotic to see a tank being unable to do his job because of a "fear flag".
    I mean you have a full 24 man raidforce with a high end warrior/dk but yet a pally needs to tank "just 'cause...". This is a very poor class design.
    Please do not mix this up with the general idea of class diversity. Everyone here appreciates that different classes bring different advantages to a raid or vs specific encounters. But it really can not be as drastic as a passive ability flag preventing all other tanks to even try it.

    yea, we already have plenty of tank diversity: good tank, mediocre tank, and bad tank. don't need the fear mechanic to bring extra flavor.

    I do however believe that any [tank] class should have encounters it's good and bad at tanking, but that having one class that's immune to the only balancing effect in encounters is bad design and having only one balancing effect in encounters is also bad design.
    I am happy to have Pallys immune to fear (although why that effect isn't on DK escapes me), so long as 3 (Inquisitor, we love you!) other detrimental effects are introduced, and no encounter is unbeatable if you don't have the appropriate tanking class to take that fight.

    I have always loved how we DK's, the masters of fear, are some how not immune to it.

    I just love how the developers make sure that we are always fully engaged with their thought processes. It really motivates us as a community.

    Silius, could you please share your thoughts on this mechanic? Do we need to roll Paladins or will this be addressed?
