>My fragile ego has been hurt now that somebody has pointed at that 9% damage reduction doesn't make a difference in any situation, but I will stay deluded and pull a strawman saying that you are using your feelings despite stating clearly that your source is empirical.
Your understanding of the matter is completely subjective to your flawed idea of how resilience works. I'll stick to my empirical research that being that a warrior tank with 0 resilience and 30k hp will have 100 times more survavility than any other class with 18k hp and 700 resilience.
LOL... Warrior tank @ 79 will mostly survive (against other 79s) even with just 20k HP (if played well)... I have a 79 DK, which has 27k HP and 258resil in tank build (blood), and 22k HP and ±750 resil in UH build. And believe it or not, I take more dmg in tank gear (although higher HP)... How is it possible with your logic?
