How do I respond to this?

Some in my guild have directly indicated to me that when the epicX2 missions go live, given that you would want to have a comprehensive MT and OT group for those missions, that my class will not be appropriate. I feel like my monk has been killed. Is there any reason to have a monk in a X2 group?

Yes ... to DPS ... or Tank ... or Offtank.

Haste + casting speed is leet.

Tell your guild leaders they are full of shit, and tank that zone

That would be great - but we have enough plate in guild, so that covers the MT and OT in a 12 player raid, as for DPS, after the groups fill with support classes for the MT and OT - most are gonna take the highest DPS they have - and that certainly isn't us monks.

wtf would a guild want 2 plate tank on for x2 raids? Take a brawler who can dps higher and will help with raidwide buffs, and if need be can tank just as well.

Because people are ignorant

Any good loot out of the x2 zone?

Target yourself, open guild window, click remove and find a guild
not run by morons.

Frankly they'd be idiots to take two plate tanks in there. While an offtank might be nice for all of two encounters in there (final boss and the flame elemental, though the fire boss really can be done solo if your MT is any good), it unnecessary for the vast majority of the zone. Given that the final boss is waaaaaaaay easier with extra dps, taking two plates just seems dumb to me.

I wouldn't even take 2 tanks in the x2 zone IMO, and TBH unless he was tanking no sense in bringing a brawler.
