Which is more better for barb - BLOCK OR PARRY OR DODGE

[aks 26]

Im think of making a good tank barb

Now there are 2 sets of armour after recent update.

1) with tp mythical set with parry dodge

2) nadir heroic set with less parry and more magic and phycical def, energy regen

Wondering which one works better for barb as a tank

For pve tank more def=better 

[aks 26]

I think in center of barb defence stone skin works major role.

More block parry or dodge give time to replenish stone skin and the better defence.

Nadir set just give you 650 around more defence and not much in my opinion

I honestly advice to go for a mixed gear - both mythic techno and hero nadir items. Their combo goes really well. Boots and armor from nadir, helm and gloves from techno. That works for both block and parry setups. The higher block/parry bonuses, the better it is.

Even though my 22 lvl barb has 10k pdef and 4k mdef, yet low block percentage (8.5%) makes it less tanky but i prefer the defence amount, combined with high energy regeneration (i love having over 10k pdef ).

Actually these defensive bonuses are amazing. Almost capped block, basically 20% parry. That's amazing. 

Dodge adds up to those 2 but its not neccessity.
