When you have a 60% chance to knock 2 or 3k off an incoming hit, and that's before armor or any other reductions, that's pretty significant. There's a reason DKs 'feel' squishier I think.<br /><br />Wrathy summed it up really well in a post today on his (her?) site. This is what I've been trying to get across the last two days. <br /><br />"In conclusion, if you understand the mechanics of the fight and tailor a gear set to augment your ability to perform to the best of your ability during said fight, you will be a better tank and a better player as a result. There is no end all be all for gear, each encounter will have different mechanics which will make that Bis set better or worse." - Wrathy avengingwrathy.wordpress.com<br /><br />Well said Wrathy, well said.Adgamorixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07642665863641484225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4407860231382967590.post-9060356229352977632010-01-27T06:45:53.522-09:002010-01-27T06:45:53.522-09:00Long time lurker, interesting to me as I will eith...Long time lurker, interesting to me as I will either really agree with you, or really disagree. I always find your posts thoughtful and good reads. I really agree with the philosophy here. So many DKs tell me stack dodge parry etc. I would rather have more armor and health, plus our shield blocks most magic damage anyway. I hate proc based stuff. I want to know I have it. Plus the RNG hates me, as the stuff I want always goes to puggles in my raids. Curse you RNG, grrr. I can't rely on it so I don't.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06271186664739191564noreply@blogger.com
