This is a guide I have created for myself to judge the value of tanking items and which to use to build the best balance between threat AND mitigation. This guide does not take into account, chance on hit items such as HoJ or Deathbringer Proc as these are pure TPS items which are situation for lower content. That being said, you should aim to keep above 400 DEF with your TPS items on.


I have broken down stats to = Tank Points (TP)


1 Stam = 1.5 TP
1 Agil = 1.5 TP
1 Block = 2 TP
1 Block Val = 0.33TP
1 Hit = 18 TP
1 Crit = 9 TP
1 Dodge = 10 TP
1 Parry = 12.5 TP
1 DEF = 4 TP
50 Armor = 1 TP
1 Str = 0.225 TP
1 AP = 0.1 TP
1 DPS = 3.5 TP
1 Skill = 2 TP
1H Weapon Enchant (15 Agil/Crusader) = 22.5 TP


(Ideally you have a top Avoidance/Mitigation weapon with 15 Agi and a TPS weapon with Crusader)


**Note - Adjust Base DEF/Stam to the need of each fight's mechanics**




Using the key above, we can break down the value of individual items. I have broken down a list of the most sought after and controversial items per slot to obtain a better understanding of how those items perform in terms of overall tanking (Effective Health Pool / Avoidance / Mitigation / Threat)

Trinkets:



Zandalarian Hero Badge
http://db.vanillagaming.org/?item=19948

Up-time of 16.66%: 8 hits taken single target in 20 seconds.

2,000 Armor + 30 Def = 160 TP, - 16 TP per hit taken. 8th taken = 48 TP. Take the average TP of the up-time = 104.

Multiply this by the 16.66% up-time = 17.326 TP.

*Note*
If you are tanking an add that is killed within the first 47 seconds (43% up-time) of a fight, this trinket has a TP value of 44.73, making it better than Onyxia Blood Talisman for the duration of the fight.

If you are tanking an add that is killed within the first 30 seconds (68% up-time) of a fight, this trinket has a TP value of 70.72, making it better than Styleen's Impeding Scarab for the duration of the fight.

Taking a buffed tank HP of 8k (non world buffed), gives 120 Stam (180 TP) and heals for 1,200 (22.5 TP) of the duration of the trinket up-time = 202.5 TP

Factoring in up-time of 6.66% this trinket = 13.365 TP

*Note*
If you are tanking an add that is killed within the first 90 seconds (22% up-time) of a fight, this trinket has a TP value of 44.55, making it better than Onyxia Blood Talisman for the duration of the fight.

A lot of great work there... thanks for it.

Would you mind to spare remaining bits of your free time to put similar stuff up also for DPS warriors?
