    I'm not having much problems with my Stamina DK build.

    Made my job easier, I can now take my secondary sword and shield off and replace it with a 2hander to deal some mean damage!

    What I TRULY want to know is, WHAT are the new VR16 Damage Mitigation caps? (vr14 was 32500 Physical and Spell resistance)

    If anyone could help me find this information, Im sure every tank who reads this thread will be enlightened.

    Thank you!

    For me tanking has devolved to hitting one or two buttons. I can't really help my teammates out like I use to. As a DK tank, it's about hitting the Heroic Slash when I have enough stamina, blocking, Eruption, and Choking Talons. Otherwise I can't do much because resources.

    I much prefer pre-IC tanking. Any tank that was perma blocking had no idea how to justify being apart of a group.

    Furthermore, as a particular bad (but, sadly, helpful...) habit I picked up was less about watching the battlefield and more about concentrating on a green bar at the bottom of my screen.

    In short, and in my opinion, tanking right now is God Damn boring. The easiest way to deal with the stamina nerf is to stack stamina and block-cost and perma-block. Lol, go figure.

    Exactly! What some people fail to realize is that stamina tanking hasn't become hard, no, but very boring after the update. ZOS should just give us back pre-IC tanks already. It should've been obvious by now that decision was bad and wrong.
