How to Start Tanking in M+ (A Fundamental WoW Guide)

Enjoyed the video? Buy me a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/iviv

This video is a guide for players who want to tank mythic plus dungeons but are struggling where to start. I go over how to practicing tanking, as well as the fundamentals of tanking in M+ Dungeons. I also point out extremely useful addons and weakauras that massively improve the tanking experience and will let you start hardcarrying dungeons quicker. Note that this is just a starting point, there are lots of different ways to start tanking and lots of different ways to tank, period. Tanking is not mathematically driven like DPS, you can freely play in a way that you just simply FEEL is better. As long as you're living and timing the keys and having fun, that is what is important. Cheers!

Currently, the best dungeons to solo practice (Patch 9.2.7)
- Gambit murloc area, just stun the fishstick cast
- Mechagon Junkyard, any part, it's got a lot of diversity
- Iron Docks starting area
- Streets of Wonder first pack is 3 hard hitting mobs
