Look at the following lines:
05:15'21.084 Ithnan gains Shield Block
05:15'22.795 Maiden of Virtue's Melee hits Ithnan for 1729 (259 blocked)
05:15'24.790 Maiden of Virtue's Melee hits Ithnan for 3248 (crushing)
05:15'26.769 Maiden of Virtue's Melee hits Ithnan for 1692 (259 blocked)
05:15'26.325 Ithnan gains Shield Block
This can not be dismissed as the latency issues. Also this is a slow hitting mob (every 2sec), not DW, and I do have Imp Shield Block.
I will try to search my combatlogs for more crushing evidence, from other bosses, but is it possible the previous assumption of the single attack roll can be incorrect? |
Guys, sorry to peep into your warrior thread, i was reading it to try and learn something as our tanking tactics and gearing are very similar.
I have aroun 18% block iirc. however my total mitigation with holy shield up is 103+.
I downed prince yesterday with 0 crushings, and last week with 1 crushing, due to mismanaging the global cooldown for a second. Of course i get 8 blocks per 10 seconds, but my point is that if you had to have 20% shield block to be uncrushable id get crushed like mad, and i dont EVER get crushed unless i make an error cycling my skills.
It's time to put to bed the 20% shield block to be uncrushable myth.
Prince and Maulgor dont crush me, i dont have 20% shield block(and it would require 65% for me because my holy shield is only 35% with libram)
That a paladin CAN tank prince is proof enough, that i can tank him without getting crushed at all should squash the concept.
