My fellow bears...

First off, I'm a bear tank. A bear that has 34k armor. A bear that has 44% dodge. A bear that has just over 50 thousand hit points. All fully buffed of course. My guild loves me. Throw me infront of a boss, and watch the progression begin. My best example is XT-002 Deconstructor . He hits me for an average of 17k-19k damage per normal melee hit, before Savage Defense/Barkskin/Priest|Pally Bubble/Etc. I can survive almost 3 unmitigated hits before I die. This gives my healers almost 7 seconds to heal the raid before needing to switch to me. This is also assuming I don't dodge and that the boss doesn't miss. My Armory Link As you can see, I stack a little thing called Stamina . You see, Dire Bear Form increases STAMINA by 25%. Not agility. Not dodge rating. Stamina. So I ask you, what stat will a bear druid scale with the best? I'll give you a moment to ponder this.. .. .. If you guessed STAMINA, you're correct. So here's my question to my felllow bears: Why, oh, why...
