Does any one know of a resource that lists all the buffs that tanks can recieve to improve their Stamina/HP? I'm particularly interested in how to get the HP/Stamina of our MT up in some way other than by improving gear. We currently have our Warrior MT up to 10,000HP with raid buffs, but in some screen shots I've seen the tanks have significantly more HP than this, so I feel like I'm missing something.


Things I am aware of that can stack:

Food buff:
Max is currently Dirge's Kickin' Chimaerok Chops = 25 Stamina

Potions:
1) Flask of the Titans = 1200 HP (thanks Uziel)
2) Elixir of Fortitude = 120 HP

Buffs:
1) Fortitude
2) Mark of the Wild
3) Blessing of Kings
4) Blood Pact

World Obtainable Items:
1) Spirit of Zanza - 50 Stamina OR Lung Juice Cocktail - 25 Stamina (neither last through death and they do not stack with each other)
2) Rumsey Rum Black Label - 15 Stamina (Green Gordok Gog - 10 Stamina is an alternative)


World Obtainable Buffs:
1) Tribute Run Buff - 15% Stamina for 2 hours
2) Heart of Hakkar turn-in - 15% All Stats for 2 hours (disappears on death?)
3) North Tower in EPL - 5% HP (Works in Naxx)


<Seasonal / Calander Specific Buffs/Items>
- Wickerman Buff - 25% Base Stamina for 2 hours
- Fortune Teller in Darkmoone Fair - 10% BASE Stamina for 2 hours [Answers: a) Confiscate the corn and b) Speak against your brother]
- Lunar Festival - 250 HP Lucky Rocket Cluster
- Love is in the Air - 30 Stam
- Midsummer Fire Festival - 30 Stam


Are there other items or buffs that we are ignoring or missing?

Things I'm disregarding:
The bobbing apple seems to only give 15 Stamina Well Fed buff ...

Flask of the Titans is only 1200 HP.
There is Rumsey's Black Label Rum (15 stam, thanks vv) but I forget the actual +stamina bonus. Bobbing apples for Halloween also give stamina.

I will check it out myself later on, but lots of people do post here from work and Websense is the devil..so actually posting the info from the link itself may be very helpful. =)

Well the point was really that this is all information that is readily available in numerous other places.

Such as here. http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/th...108870&sid=1#7

What is the DM North Buff? Sorry for my ignorance, but I've been through a bunch of times, but maybe I never noticed because I'm a priest :)

And Malan: Your link doesn't make sense to me. How is that Allakhazam search even remotely helping me figure out which items stack and which don't in regards to Stamina and HP? That's certainly not a "list" or concise format.

Spirit of Zanza does not stack with Blasted Lands buff. Dirge's Kickin Chimera Chops are +25 stamina food which is the best you can get. Most likely if you were looking at screenshots of tanks with significantly more than 10k they are either from the beta or they're using Last Stand / Lifegiving Gem (or both).

Also don't forget blessing of kings is +10% stats.

Using a Zanza on a learning attempt is pretty dumb, unless you like going back and forth between STV and your raid zone of choice. If you are getting close and feel you are going to beat it, it may be a worthwhile investment. Or alternatively to give yourself a bit more margin for error with certain encounters.

You can get it from one of the bosses on a Tribute run.

Rumsey Black Label is better though if your going for max HP besides easy to fish up.

I'm assuming you are talking about the Grog? It does not stack with Rumsey Rum?

No, they don't stack, rum is the better choice between the two. Last Stand/LGG is how tanks get more than 10,000 HP in the live game.

Also, how did you register without a profile? Surely you must own some character to update your profile with.

Millions of words are written annually purporting to tell how to beat the races, whereas the best possible advice on the subject is found in the three monosyllables: 'Do not try.'

Also Hakkar buff is no longer +15% Base Stats but +15% all Stats ever since they removed the staying on Death (heh that version sucked besides you had the nice speed buff for 2 hours).

Darkmoon Buff though is Base Stats
Also the +5% Tower Buff from the North Tower which applies to your buffed HP.

Or good gear, one of our OT sits at 11k HP with just raid buffs, flask and food buffs for Patchwerk.

The Darkmoon faire buff is BASE stam, not total stam. We tried this awhile ago with our MT for Loatheb, pretty worthless.

You guys forgot the best one:
Admiral's Hat (http://www.thottbot.com/?i=12435)

It requires a party-mate to wear a silly hat, and stay within aura range, but hey it's 10 stamina!

Actually I seem to remember Gurgthock saying the new system actually requires a real effort to circumvent filling out a profile.

Most people take SSes of MT HP when they have Last Stand and Lifegiving Gem up for big numbers.
