Han r en sn person jag aldrig skulle kunna hata . <| sep |> which has led to many people saying he ' s controlled opposition , and was paid to make the altright seem like a bunch of neonazisI mean , that would be pretty interesting , I guess ? But for real and from August , this is the AltRight according to Stormfront and correctly or not they seem to consider it their m o v e m e n t normiesguidetothealtright <| sep |> So most tanks in this game negate or reduce damage taken via either abilities or just dodgesblocksparriesthis is obvious but relevant . Brewmaster can still dodge and parry attacks however their main means of tanking is via the stagger mechanic . What this does is that when you take a hit you take 60 % of the hit immediately , then you take the other 40 % over 10 secondshow much you delaystagger can be altered via talents and abilities . What this means is that BEFORE abilities , you will take more damage OVERALL than other tanks , but will take it in a smoother , much easier to heal manner . Brewmaster also gets abilities that can remove a portion of the current staggered damage , so your abilities do actually reduce damage taken , contrary to some comments you may have seen . All of this together means that you need to not only fully understand the stagger mechanic , you need to know how long to wait between removing your stagger , among other things , which to some is more difficult to do than just standard tanking . As for the second part of your question , brewmaster is just as viable for endgame content as every other tank . The main stigma attached to the class actually comes from either healers who dont understand how the class takes damage , or from bad brewmasters as the rarity of the class makes bad ones stick out more than a bad tank of another class .
