So you could be a better tank by having hit cap.
Are your dps going to throttle for you when you miss?
Actually I would be a worse tank in pre raid gear by having hit cap, because my mitigation would be too low putting stress on my healers. AND I would also lose threat because I would have to drop block rating to gather than last 2% hit I need to be capped.
I’ll take Things Bonerover don’t understand for $1000 Alex.
You can hit Def cap, Exp Cap, and Hit cap with 27k hp unbuffed with 58% avoidance.
But theorycrafting gear is your specialty so I would expect you could know this.
You can actually get a lot more hp too. I don’t even have JC.
Or you can get Def cap, expertise cap, 6% hit, with 1300 block and 71% avoidance. I’ll take the 71% avoidance and 1300 block over 2% hit lol.
This build has 1300 block.
I feel like you’re lying about the avoidance too. Unless you’re considering buffs.
Link the build.
The build I have has:
12.47% block - 1226 value
18.07% dodge
16.72% parry
The only boss that can really dominate you too is Sarth zerg strat.
Talents are slightly wrong too. 2 points in the pursuit of justice out of Seal of Command and SA.
13% more avoidance seems… difficult to attain.
The gear drops in Naxx though. It’s quite unrealistic to demand everyone already have the gear that drops in the place they’re trying to go to.
“Nobody said they are requiring it.”
-Maybe recheck the thread title and first post.

Ah yes that is a really good build. And is close to would I would go if I were engy. And you’re right about the avoidance. Its 66% in my gear, I don’t know where I got the 71% from.

Its definitely not a full on mitigation set though. My healers particularly like a challenge so they don’t mind the sacrifice to keep more threat.
And for Sarth 3 zerg I’ll probably have our Warrior tank it whose almost to 30k hp.
Save yourself a few brain cells and stop arguing with retards on the WoW forums. The people in here are BEYOND stupid sometimes.
It’s a really good build for sure. Far better than what the other guy posted that actually made me facepalm.
But I still think with my profs, that the mitigation, especially when it’s active mitigation 94.7% far out weighs the 2% hit.

He’s actually quite a good optimizer. After looking at his gear, I see value in what he’s saying. We just have 2 different ideas on how we want to tank.
Nah I wasn’t talking about anyone specifically I just started reading this at work and feel like I lost a few IQ points watching people trying to bring you down to their level of stupidity.
I thought that all you needed was Brutal Glad from TBC because Naxx was gonna be E Z Mode?
Oh lol yeah, there are a few interesting characters on this thread.
Naxx is a big meme, but your tanks will need to have some solid WotLK gear or they’re just gonna fold. Being crittable doesn’t mean you can’t tank raid bosses, but it does mean you’re going to get deleted occasionally.
If you have the HP to survive damage that has to be healed, you’ll probably be fine.
Naxx 25 can probably be done in full SWP gear.
Minus the tanks. They would need to probably have crit cap with that low of hp.
But now that I say this I’m sure some pumper group will show me wrong.

I don’t think it will be doable if the tanks dont have 540 def.
I would say probably full sunwell DPS and heals. And close to pre raid tanks could clear Naxx easy. And that’s by top top players. Not scrubs like us lol
