    A agree that for the basic stats strenght is the most important direction to skill, because it's the warriors main attribute and he will gain the most from it. We can take this for granted.
    But something a tank will get benifits from is a good amount of dodge - 10% dodge = 10% less damage taken.

    Is there any official resource that explains the aggro mechanics in detail?
    I can't take it for granted, that less damage taken from a mob results in less aggro for the tank
    10& dodge doesn't reduce the damage take, it just increases the chance for you to dodge the attack.

    No, that's exactly what it does. If you dodge the attack, you won't get the damage at all.
    So 10% of all potential damage a group of mobs or a single mob is able to give you in an encounter, you will dodge and so the damage is reduced by that 10%.

    That's a statistical probability and with all mathematical probabilities you need to calculate with a large set of events so the numbers level out.
