A shaman tank (or Shamatank) is a player who uses the shaman class to fill the role of Main Tank or Off-Tank in a party or raid. Of course, shamans are inferior to the proper tank classes and can substitute for them only in content which they outlevel or outgear. Nontheless, with proper gear and the right talent build, shamans are probably the best tank replacement class. They can successfully tank about all 5-mans (including heroics), and, with cooperation from the raid, even raid instances. All party members must be aware that the Shamatank requires more healing, needs more time to build aggro, is more fragile, and can only taunt through Unleash Elements-Rockbiter (no AoE).
