Firstly I apologize for the necro and this a bit stupid question, I wouldn't ask but I simply cannot come up with a conclusion.
Would it be viable to have a fury warrior with 2h and shield + some resilence gear to become crit-immune tank Anub 25HC as level 80(pre-Cataclysm that is)?
I realize its probably sounding extremely stupid of me to ask that question, but thanks in advance if someone bothers replying to this :).
i guess technically it could work since you outgear it so much, but i dunno why you would want to instead of just being prot.
How can you become crit immune with resilience gear? Thought the crit immune was purely talented these days and that resilience does nothing in PvE?
resil hasn't worked for pve crit immunity since bc...
That's not true, i used it to tank all of the entry level heroic 5 mans at wotlk. they didn't remove defense, and therefore the pve aspect of crit immunity along with it, until they introduced mastery, which was a late wotlk/pre-cata move no? there definitely wasn't mastery until then.
Resilience reduced the chance to be critically hit by any unit in wrath. This changed when 4.0 went live, to only reducing damage taken from players (and I think also player controlled units like pets). You were crit-immune with 536 defense skill and 15 resilience in Wrath.
hmm, i thought it went away in 3.0 to not work against pve mobs....my bad :(
