it is hard to get a high dodge rate for barb.
higher block rate can get in shield only rite?
all resist is a must for barb. mine is 900 after shout
my block chances now is 20%, block rate 2000++ - 4000++
so i suspect, im lack of :
block chance %
reduce melee damage %
i read his gears discript, he actually had non shield gears that has block rates %, prolly hard to come by i think

but yeah, other reduction does play a considerable role in dmg reductions, especially when the numbers are large and you are resisting by percentage.

my role now definitely a fully tanker.. just that my friends' wiz n dh not too high dps..

.. my dps no hope d.. the only way is get a 1k dps weapon n all the armor with vit, str n resist... which is way too expensive.. hehe..
having a decent DPS is still important for tankers imo, iirc some skills that are used for tanking to regain health are by dmg percentage, for instance ur passive 3% of dmg to health
