No reason, just that real avoidance has diminishing returns so it is hard to get 83% of that. Assuming your base stamina/AC set has around 23% dodge/parry/block and 8% miss or so, you need to fill...

If Algalon has a true dual wield mechanic then the total % you need from miss+block+parry+dodge is significantly less (around 19% less if I recall correctly because the boss has extra +miss). This...

I would say no, 1/2 SoA and 5/5 imp berserker is better because 2% AP > 2% STR. This is counterintuitive because at an individual stat level 1STR>2AP, but because of raid buffs that are AP only...

Since 1h fury has come up in discussions again, I would like to share my tests on the PTR that Mace Spec does still apply to all attacks even if the 1h mace is held in the off-hand.
