ArP Cap=(armor + C)/3
C=400+85*level+4.5*85*(level-59).
C=400+85*80+4.5*85*(80-59)

Base armor is 10643.

It does. The only way to prevent Mark damage is to kite the boss, which is a nonviable strategy. Every swing he makes, no matter if it connects or not, makes Marks tick.

I haven't found SI to be very useful. You could already spec 3/3 FI and 4/5 FA if you don't spec iLotP. I personally will just be moving those 3 points into FI as I don't normally spec it.

It's a dps boost for those without a manglebot, and no change for those that do have one. Glyph change is pretty much strictly pvp and leveling.

Just for clarification, taunt uses the spell hit cap of 17% but melee hit. So, it's possible to miss taunts unless you're both melee hit capped and glyph taunt.

You'll get better results going with 2 rigid dragon's eyes and 1 fractured dragon's eyes as that allows you to hit 258 hit and 1401 ArP. I netted ~50dps doing this in SC and 2dps in Rawr.
