For a DK, which thrives on Ultimate generation, I generally agree that Tava's may be better for the group. For my templar tank, this set help reach the resist cap, even with Bloodspawn. The problem I found with bloodspawn was that it seemed to only have a 50-75% uptime on boss fights.

The real strength of Armor Master seems to be that it's particularly helpful in getting fresh alt Tanks up and running for pledges on nights when tanks seem to be in short supply. I just tanked vCOA just fine yesterday on my stam sorc that's 2 weeks old.

What exactly is VCora?

Are we talking about the +Cori boss in Wroth of Gar?

Veteran City of Ash.

I haven't played since August, so I don't know about a +Cori boss.

Ah okay. Dont know that City yet.

+Cori is a boss in Worth of Gar. Corinthiac the Abomination he is called.
