Default Have 2 profiles for monk or not?

Hello folks, its me again. Thanks again for the awesome info that is on these boards. My most recent issue is to fully aa spec for just tank and have a profile just for dps. This has caused a problem on a few group runs where I get roped into tanking when I am just profiled dps and then visa versa. I really like the avoidance when I am profiled just Tank. But am wondering from you guru brawlers if there is a happy medium. where without swapping out aa pts or profiles, just transfer my gear on me from dps to tank and ready to go. Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated guys. thanks again.

Well I know me personally i have most of my AAs setup for DPS, but at the same time there are some defensive AAs that go along with those. If you look at the thread for AA specs mine pretty much follows what Trumak uses. When i need to tank i just put on some higher avoid gear and ward procs to help out. Other then that most of the time I am still in offensive. Some RE2 named i go into defensive for but those guys hit like mack trucks. But really i stick with alot of the DPS stuff just because the way i keep agro the best when tanking is by DPSing high. When I am DPSing i dont worry about HP and stuff as much and will put on stuff with more crits, DA, or +DPS and such. Thats how i look at things. Hope that helps

Best thing you can do is just take the spec 99% of brawlers do, and that spec covers both DPS and tanking. It bascially ignores maxing out all the avoidance but is still fine in all situations. I never have to respec for anything, be solo/group or raid.

I use 2, one for dps the other hardly ever just when we are pulling new mobs and shit for altruism and some added avoid for the MT.

Its a cool skill but I'd rather listen to our MT yell at his healers cause he died then save him. Keeps everyone on their toes, I still use it on AOJ though, that is about the only time.
