AvoidanceFollow

50% total avoidance is a point around which I'm still being, tanking at hyjal level. As I had to work on spell damage and stamina, it has never been far above 50%.

But it is possible to drop a stat for another, and it seems important to have multiple sets to adapt to each fight. Block value set, mageladin set, total avoidance set, ...

So 50% is fine I believe, if your other stats are high.

Recently saw a druid with around 90% total avoidance, it makes feel bad, how high do you think paladins could be ? 70%? more?

You're good.

Uncrushability is strange. It's easy to get there by stacking Block Rating in pre-raid gear, but your pure avoidence will suffer a little. After you reach uncrushable, you can start getting the nice gear that will replace much of that Block Rating with Dodge Rating. Generally you want to stay away from Parry Rating unless it's either extra on the item or a serious upgrade. Agility is better to stack than Parry in most cases.

By the time that you reach the END of Tier 4 level stuff and you're ready to move into SSC/TK you'll probably be running around 22% Dodge, 18% Parry, and 11% Miss. Conveniently, that puts you right where you are at ~50% +/- pure Avoidence.

This mostly stays still through Tier 5. You can push it a little higher by NOT rolling with 2 Stamina trinkets. 2 Stamina trinkets are great for a new encounter or something where you know you need more HP -- but if you have sufficient HP to soak up the hits with a bit of a safety zone, you should be swapping out that second Stamina trinket for an Avoidence trinket.

By late Tier 6 you push your pure Avoidence a little bit higher, but again -- the only time you reach real amazing numbers are when you run with Avoidence trinkets (and pop them for the extra boost).
