Tank striders on Vashj
Not sure if this is new or old, but I couldn't find anything on it.. but my guild has a new strat for doing Vashj..
If you are a tauren (may have to be male, not confirmed) warrior, you can use a Winterfall Firewater and you can tank the striders without worrying about fear.
We still get the occassional fear, seems to happen when the tank is too far inside the striders model, but once you get the positioning down they become a simple tank and spank instead of having to rely on kiting

Thats what I kind of thought at first, but it works. I think it may have something to do with raising the height of the characters hitbox
*edit*
but like I was saying, make sure you get as far away from the strider as you can while still being able to swing and hit him, or else you can still get feared. A intercept does wonders cause the stun gives you a few secs to get the position perfect

I don't think Orb of Deception works, even if you do get changed into a tauren. But yes, tauren can out range a lot of things like this, for example, the whirl on Lurker from SSC.
