- Is there some definitive evidence of crush immunity with shield block requiring 25% block or 25% total avoidance?

Well, I can tell you log all my raiding, in my tanking gear I have around 20%...

I'd like to suggest a minor tweak to expiration - strip the capitalization.

This will enable "/expiration report player" instead of requiring "/expiration report Player" which should make using this...

I have a few nitpicks with that viewpoint:
1) You aren't including the cost of the block value you additionally needed to stack.
2) Raid tanking gear is in fact viable in 5 mans (I can't think of a 5...

I'm unconvinced that threat is an issue for nightbane or prince.

First let's examine Nightbane:

This fight is anything but a DPS race, people are in no real rush to kill him, outside the landings...

As my avoidance (dodge+parry+miss chance) is usually around 54%, 1% dodge adds about 2.22% mitigation (so at 3000 a hit it's mitigation is about 66.66 a hit, for me it's closer to 1350 a hit where 1%...

At least on my server, we're clearly seeing significant levels of inflation at the moment. For example rare gems have basically significantly increased in value (from around 20-25g to 40-70g.) ...

I tank Maulgar every week, without 25% block, and I don't get crushed when shield block is up (and yes, I do keep combat logs, and use a version of recap that watches for crushing blows, so I'd know...

The thing is, this is easily measured and tested in practice. Can you be sure the times you were crushed with shield block active were not caused by:
* Drinking a potion right before a swing (or...

I'm not sure if my point was clear or not, based on your question and response, so let me elaborate one more time.

The odds of getting crushed when shield block isn't up is 15%, for any tank (unless...

All other things being equal (that is, equal hp and ac) more avoidance is always better. The odds of "Crush Crush Hit Crush" on a tank with less avoidance is higher than on a tank with more...
