So we are looking at 66 dodge total with buffs and crown set. Namely, 2/3 out of all hits are dodged!
Arguably more useful in pve than strongmans, where dodging the procs is important for a tank. The higher hit should compensate for the lower base damage. There are mobs that do debuff in Nuri, although I can't remember what they debuff.
Yup, same in PvP. I guess it really calls for what situation you're in. Just like the previous Fortified (damage, HS, armor) versus RS Helm/Plate/Rooter/Fury Hybrid (dodge and Hit %).Originally Posted by WhoIsThis

Factoring in cost though, BT is so much cheaper.
Other thoughts:
You cannot as a tank be conservative with health potions in Nuri's Hallows. I once saw a tank refuse to lead because he didn't want to spend money on pots!
Well, with the big top and strongmans, mana won't be a problem, but health potions should always be brought in generous supply.
Don't rely 100% on mages either. Large mobs hit too hard for heal to keep up sometimes.
There are a few tanks that have argued in favor of int bears for the hallows.
I truly can't imagine how any self respecting bear can make it that far into the game (Nuri) without a sense of independently heath potting themselves to stay alive and do his/her part for the team. I hope that player wised up quickly for all of our sake if we happen to be in the same group.

There are quite a few pug bears out there whose performance is questionable. Some stay to the rear of the team. They don't taunt, and rarely use their slashes or crushing blow. Worse, quite a few bears tend to scatter when they activate the smash combo and send targets all over the place rather than against the wall. Oh and many of these players aren't receptive to feedback.

This guide is brilliant, finally I know exactly what I should be doing as a bear.. I knew I was supposed to tank but couldn't seem to get aggro, had no idea that's what Taunt was for.. derp.
There's no option to thank you for the post.. :/
