Thinking about Block, Parry, Dodge

I've been thinking about the tank avoidance stats, Block, Parry, Dodge, and what Blizzard could do with them.

The problem, as I see it is that EH is almost always preferred. Block scales badly, so you can have too much for trash and too little for bosses, while avoidance scales badly in conjunction with it. If the boss hits hard, avoidance makes the fight too spiky. If the boss hits fast and lightly, avoidance would be interesting except that block would make the fight trivial....

It was a massacre

.... and no I'm not talking about dead gnomes!

So last night with an incredible 27 people signed including 7 main spec healers our first reset run of the week was looking hopeful and despite starting with only 22 (and ending with our maximum of 23) it was a massace!

Flame Leviathan, XT, Kolog, Auriaya, Hodir, Freya, Mimi and Razorscale all fell inside our three hour raid and all were one-shots (unless you count the accidental pull and reset of Freya while clearing trash)...
Proud to be a gnome tank
