Buffs / Debuffs for Healers and Tanks in Dungeons

Can anyone with some veteran dungeon pugging expertise shed some insight about which buffs and debuffs it is typical or helpful to see healers and tanks use? I am trying to craft a gear/skill setup for pugging dungeons and I would like to know which buffs/debuffs each role is either expected to bring or is relied on to bring. I’m just going to list some of the things I am aware of that are needed.

- Minor Courage
- Major Courage
- Minor breach
- Major breach
- Minor vulnerability
- Minor berserk
- Minor force
- Major force
- Minor resolve
- Off balance
- Minor Brittle

- Powerful Assault
- Infused Crusher enchant
- Spaulder of Ruin
- Warhorn
- Major Slayer

Some things I believe to be true is that healers are responsible for major courage exclusively. And tanks will be responsible for major breach. After that, I’m unsure or out of the loop.

    Healer:
    Combat prayer (minor resolve + minor berserk)
    Orb (synergy)
    Enlivening overflow (CP)
    Spell power cure (major courage, PuGs will not stand in olorime, you have to use spc)

    Tank:
    Major breach
    Minor breach
    A pen set (crimson OR tremor)
    Major vulnerability (turning tide or colo)
    Infused crusher on bosses

    Anything else is more of a bonus for PuGging. If you can do other buffs/debuffs, that’s good and you should but it’s hard to coordinate with PuGs (such as whose horning when, zenas, sources of minor vulnerability, whose wearing powerful assault vs whose wearing a slayer set, etc). I try to avoid running horn because I don’t want to coordinate ults and then as a healer I stack personal damage and as a tank I stack buffs/debuffs irrelevant of what PuGs may be putting out.
