amiranna, just wanted to ask for clarification...

Let's take for example;-

A 390K crit damage hits your barb that manages to block (not dodge) the shot, ...will it still survive or not?

Beside the healing skills, no class of heroes can stay invincible + invisible for 4 seconds.

I still believe monk is best tanker serious Lol with decent amount of spend. Compare others class need super gear for tank.

barb scales with gear. monk scales for shit.

yes, you spend low amount, your tanking ability is superb, however as you spend more, you gain much less returns compared to a barb. take random numbers (again, examples, the numbers are all made up) for me to show my points:

a monk and barbarian that spends 100k on cheapo gear, chances are the monk tanks better than the barb.
however once a monk and barbarian both spends 1million on tanking gear, the barbarian may be on equal footing in terms of EHP/tanking capabilities.
once both of them spends maybe 10million, the barbarian will most likely out tank the monk.

as awesome as serenity is, it is bound to a very long cooldown for a short effective duration. this however:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/barbarian...nerves-of-steel
despite having 10 seconds longer cooldown, has a much longer effective duration, which you can either rune it to prolong it even further, or let you gain health while under it.

skills like this also lets you further sustain your health IN ADDITION to your existing LoH + LS:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/barbarian/active/revenge

and again, its a scalable 5% value, not static value.

then these 2 passives:
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/barbarian...nerves-of-steel
http://us.battle.net/d3/en/class/barbarian.../tough-as-nails

FLAT OUT SCALING on your tanking base stats (armor AND vit)
while we rely on an arguably offensive base stat (dex)
barb's base stat is str which also easily adds towards armor.

they only need to watch out for all resists, which isnt that hard with warcry (again, that also adds on armor) SCALING their values at a % base. (hard target or time of need = 20% scale, lol)

the key thing, as is with LS vs LoH, is scaling.
LoH (take this as the monk) wins initially, however once you have better stats, LS (barbarian) will overtake LoH in effectiveness.

get a good iLvl63 weapon with reduced requirement by 8... everything die like a fly. no need to worry about HP, resist, armor at this point.
