To this end, this guide walks through the best raw survivability gear set that a Feral Druid should prepare if assigned to tank during progression on any Sunwell Plateau bosses. As a result, successfully clearing these encounters for the first time will require tanks to prioritize survivability in their gearing to a much greater degree than in prior content patches. The reason for this is a combination of two factors: (1) the Sunwell Radiance aura, which cripples the total avoidance of tanks and roughly doubles their average damage taken per second (DTPS) and (2) the prevalence of punishing burst damage abilities in most boss toolkits, such as Sathrovarr the Corruptor's Corrupting Strike, Felmyst's Corrosion, and the infamous Stomp mechanic on the Brutallus encounter. In addition to much more punishing raid mechanics, the primary cause of PTR wipes across all the encounters is a drastically elavated risk of tank deaths relative to prior raid tiers. Based on the Phase 5 PTR testing to date, this trend will come to a screeching halt in Sunwell Plateau, where even the entry bosses have taken average raid groups 20 or more attempts each to down. For many Classic players, the "progression" experience in prior raid tiers involved one- or two-shotting the majority of bosses, with several attempts required only on a small handful of encounters (such as pre-nerf Lady Vashj and Kael'thas Sunstrider in Phase 2 and The Illidari Council in Phase 3).
The upcoming Sunwell Plateau raid in Phase 5 of TBC Classic will feature a significant step up in boss difficulty relative to all prior phases of Classic WoW. Best In Slot Survivability Gear for Feral Druid Tank in Phase 5 Progression
