Tanking in patch 4.3
We haven't yet completed our tank balancing for 4.3 and, indeed, want to see more guild attempts on the PTR to check those results against our internal testing. We agree that DK (and possibly druid) tanks might not have the survivability against damage spikes that the block tanks have, and that is something we are taking a look at. We also agree that this is generally only a problem against very cutting-edge content, where a boss might kill a tank within very few hits if he or she doesn't receive adequate heals.
