Ok, so all three are on the same timer. I personally banked Ridicule (Mitigate 50% damage 7440 Damage absorb) and use Shield topple(Mitigate 40% damage, 540 Damage Absorbed) and vital strike under 20% for the extra damage. What do you other warriors use?
I've used Shield Topple and Vital Strike for a long time now over Ridicule line. Although still keep Ridicule in the line up for when I need it (when it refreshes).
When I need agro at the start of a fight - ridicule (or if I'm kiting) Otherwise shieldtopple and vital strike. Both have thier uses.
I use ridicule most of the time when tanking, but not all of the time. I use 5 hotbars+combat window just for discs/aa's (and a few more for items.) I rarely use hotkeys of multiple discs/aa's since I'm constantly changing my rotations depending on the situation.
Really, is there any choice when tanking? 540 rune vs 7440 rune? Using it for "DPS" when Warrior DPS is already beyond pathetic is... well, ridiculous.
Point taken Whatever... can't argue with your point. Its just a choice I made long time ago and it doesn't really effect my play. Not saying I don't ever use ridicule. When engaged with names or multiple mods I use ridicule.
