Dear druids,
My baby bear is almost all grown up. She hit the heroic circuit and has had her successes and failures, but always kept her chin up. I am so proud of her. I have (hopefully) given her the proper upbringing that a druid needs but I am still a bit apprehensive at letting her stay out late. It's not that I don't trust her... it's her friends.
You see, they want her to go to the new hotspot in town and muck it up. Now I have given her plenty of advice and wrapped her in as much protection that I was able to afford on my measly priest income. (I know we drive nice cars, but srsly, we ain't rich.) The clothes she wears are fine when she is at the old school places, but this new place makes you strip at the door! I sent her out of the house suitably dressed and what happens? They force her to take some of it off! I have half a mind to go punch the bouncer right in the nose.
So what's a druid daddy supposed to do when his little girl has to expose 20% more of her best features to the naughty bosses in ICC? Her friends seem to think that she should just show more of herself and stack her health. I am not so sure...
A couple questions about the ICC -20% dodge...
-Does it make sense to stack stamina in regards to this debuff? It seems that since one of the druids' key defensive stats (dodge) is chopped, you may as well stress the other (Stam). But...
-Is the -20% calculated after DR? I am not sure if I am doing the math right, but let's say you have this trinket, Ick's Rotting Thumb. It's benefit to dodge could be greatly reduced if dodge is calculated and then 20% is chopped off the top. But if the debuff is a starting point, then DR won't affect the higher amounts of dodge nearly as much, making it a stronger stat...
If I seem overly redundant or am just repeating myself, please indulge a confused father's worry. I only wants what's best for my girl. (I catch any of youse gawking at her and we're taking it outside.)
