Few peoples opinion would be welcome

So i'm making a dk tank for IC , now that penetration is mean't to be fixed armour will actually act like armour i'm hoping.

I'm stuck between 2 choices:

Immovable Brute or Volatile Armour.

Immovable Brute : 8k armour for 13.5s with 5s immunity, also 20% break free cost reduction..
Volatile Armour : 8k armour for 20s , weak Dot on cast, returns a little dmg but proc's the burning hearts passive which gived 12% more heals while active.

Thinking of using the Armour Master set with immovable brute for high armour, though i'm not sure if it's worth losing the healing.

Thought's or any alternatives would be welcome.

I'm thinking of using Armor master... but then procc'ing it with Evasion!

As it will mean dropping histbark.... I will gain the dodge chance back.... but still keep the extra armor via armor master.

Another benefit is that Histbark only gives the dodge buff while blocking... and as you can't perma block anymore, as soon as you drop block the 5 piece dodge bonus vanishes just when you need it most (Making it useless)... Evasion will keep the dodge chance up when not blocking... which is exactly what you need.

Just a few thoughts.... not sure how good it'll be until I test it... but in theory I reckon it should work!
