Um... I almost dont want to dignify that with a response, but I will anyway, just in case impressionable readers actually think your post has a point. COMBINING good evasion with a good blocking shield makes you TWICE as effective at tanking and soloing. If you are a pld or RDM, when they miss you, your cast CANT be interrupted, if your shield blocks, it greately reduces your damage and your likelihood of getting interrupted. A player that takes less dmg is GOOD, a player that takes less dmg AND evades a lot of attacks is GREAT! Complaining about having the best of both world when it comes to tanking/soloing is kinda of like saying "That weapon is just too powerful! I shoduln't use that! I'll kill too quickly!" LMAO!
