Tank 1 is using WoG with at least 2 holy power every 5 seconds or so, tank 2 is just using SotR. I took my own stats and rounded them for simplicity. Imagine the sample is for a fight that's not Lei Shi. :P
tank 1: 14% parry, 8% dodge, 100% block, 0% sotr uptime
tank 2: 14% parry, 8% dodge, 29% block, 45% sotr uptime at 45% effectiveness
TANK 1
1000 attacks taken at 10k damage each
140 parried, 80 dodged, 780 put on second table and blocked
780 x 10k = 7,800,000
7,800,000 - 30% = 5,460,000 total damage taken
(and factor in the little bitty amounts of healing from wog)
TANK 2
1000 attacks taken at 10k damage each
140 parried, 80 dodged, 780 put on second table, 226.2 blocked
780 - 226.2 = 553.8 unblocked
553.8 x 10k = 5,538,000
226.2 x 10k = 2,262,000
5,538,000 + 2,262,000 = 7,800,000
45% of 7,800,000 = 3,510,000
45% of 3,510,000 = 1,579,500
7,800,000 - 1,579,500 = 6,220,500 total damage taken
I just made it 10k per hit so the numbers didn't get silly high and kinda hard to read. Don't feel like factoring in blocked attacks with an overlapping SotR for tank 2.
Even so, there'd be lots of times when using SotR is a much better idea than keeping the block chance buff up.
