***Before you post they aren't required please re-read that first line, my group requires one, we've tried without and it doesn't happen.
I'm fine with Protadins being the only AE tank for 25 mans but it really hurts in 10 mans. As the ZA raid leader I can't guarantee a Paladin is going to be available and sadly I don't always want to bring one. Not because I have a problem with the class but because I'd like to run ZA with my RL friends and none of us rolled a Paladin or wants to. Up until recently there were 8 of us who were RL friends and we would bring a Protadin guildy but 3 other friends recently xferred to our server and we would like to get all of us (of course minus 1!) into ZA and get bear mounts. We can't do this because of the required stacking.
If all AE pulls (including jan'alai's adds) had half the mobs but they all did double the damage this zone would be much better for those of us who can't guarantee a Protadin.
This small change would not hurt Protadins because they would still:
1) Be able to pull multiple pulls to go quicker
2) Be able to ranged AE taunt
3) Bring raid wide custom buffs
4) Judge wisdom on bosses
5) Not give Hex Lord the mortal strike ability
