TankPoints

Version: 2.8.6

by: Whitetooth [More]

TankPoints 2.0 - A benchmark for survivalbilitygear

Localized in: English, French, German

** About TankPoints **

TankPoints was created to help myself compare different pieces of tanking gear, because it was difficult to decided at a glance like whether +12 defense is better then +1 dodge.

TankPoints can be seen as how much raw damage you can take before damage reduction, it considers your max health, armor, defense, dodge, parry, block, block value, resilience, crushing blow chance, miss, crit reduction, talants, buffs, stance/forms, and more.

Keep in mind though, that higher TankPoints does not make a better tank, it is only a benchmark for survivalbility gear but does not calculate threat.
It can not decide for you what you should wear for what boss, but it can provide you with a wealth of information what will hopfully be useful for choosing gear.

** About TankPoints 2.0 **

TankPoints 2.0 is a complete rewrite of my original TankPoints for the 2.0 WoW using the Ace2 framework.

It has a much improved TankPoints algorithm, intergrates nicely into the character stats dropdown menu, and shows a lot more information then the original TankPoints.

2.0 introduced a new combat ratings system which made it even harder to compare gear, in order to code combat rating support for TankPoints, the exact rating to percentage formula is required which Blizzard didn't give us.
Luckly, I have suceessfully reverse engineered the rating formula for all levels and coded an addon called "Rating Buster" that converts ratings on item tooltips into percentages, you can try it out here.

** How to use **

Gravity has writen an awesome 7 page guide to using TankPoints on his blog: http://pwnwear.com/tankpoints-user-guide/

** The value of Block **

The value is Shield Block Value and Block Rating is highly dependent on what you are tanking.
Its very good for mobs that don't hit very hard like in heroics, but is worth much less on hard hitting bosses in 25 man raids.
At level 80, TankPoints' default mob damage is tuned to 25 man raids, with a value of 24365 damage before mitigation.
You can change this value to match what you plan on tanking by using the "/tp mob damage" command in game.
A mob damage of 10505 for example is a good value for level 80 heroics.

TankPoints also calculates the value of Shield Block for Warriors, and Holy Shield for Paladins.
You can use the "/tp player sbfreq" command to set a shield block frequency that matches your rotation (in how many seconds AFTER cooldown finishes).
For most tankadins rotations, you will have a 100% Holy Shield uptime, using "/tp player sbfreq 1" will tell TankPoints that you will use Holy Shield 1 second after cooldown finishes (every 9 secs).

** TankPoints 2.0 Features **

In addition to the original formula, the Imporved TankPoints 2.0 formula now has:

Support for all combat ratings including the new resilience stat
Support for block% and block value
Support for various class specific talants and buffs
Support for crushing blows
Support for combat table and correctly caps off at a total of 100%. Using Hit < Crushing < Crit < Block < Parry < Dodge < Miss
Support for mob stats:
- Mob level - defaults player level +3
- Mob damage
- Mob melee crit chance
- Mob melee crit bonus
- Mob melee miss chance
- Mob spell crit chance
- Mob spell crit bonus
- Mob spell miss chance

Improved TankPoints Calculator

TankPoints User Interface:

Intergrated in to the Character stats dropdown menu (See Screeshots)
When TankPoints is selected it displays:
- TankPoints
- Melee Damage Reduction
- Block Value
- Spell TankPoints
- Spell Damage Reduction
TankPoints tooltip:
- Your stance
- Mob Stats
  - Mob Level
  - Mob Damage (after damage reduction)
  - Mob Crit Chance
  - Mob Miss Chance
- TankPoints per StatValue - Shows how much TankPoints you gain for each stats with equal item values, because the values below are equal in the item value formula, you can use this data to see what gives the most bang for the buck in terms of item budgets.
  - 1 Agility =
  - 1.5 Stamina =
  - 10 Armor =
  - 1 Resilience =
  - 1 Defense Rating =
  - 1 Dodge Rating =
  - 1 Parry Rating =
  - 1 Block Rating =
  - 1.54 Block Value
- Option to hold down ALT key will show how much TankPoints you gain for each stat point
  - 1 Agility
  - 1 Stamina
  - 1 Armor
  - 1 Resilience
  - 1% Defense
  - 1% Dodge
  - 1% Parry
  - 1% Block
  - 1 Block Value
Melee Damage Reduction tooltip:
- Armor Damage Reduction against mob level - Useful because the default armor tooltip only shows the reduction for the same level
- Mob Level, Player Level
- Combat Table - Hit < Crushing < Crit < Block < Parry < Dodge < Miss
  The total of these chances must be capped at 100%, if you exceed 100% then lower priority values will be pushed off the table.
  For example, when you press shield block (+75% block chance), hit, crush and crit will all be pushed off and will be 0, your real block chance will also be capped at (100% - Parry% - Dodge% - Miss%)
Block Value tooltip - Block Value should have been included in the default UI, but they didn't so I coded my own function that does it, strength, items, talents(warrior, paladin, shaman) are all considered in the algorithm.
- Mob Damage before Damage Reduction (armor and stance effects)
- Mob Damage after Damage Reduction
- Blocked percentage = Block Value / Mob Damage after DR
- Block Chance
- Equivalent Block Mitigation = Block Chance * Blocked percentage
  This can be seen equal with the same amount of dodge or parry.
Spell TankPoints Tooltip - Shows your strongest school by default
- Your stance
- TankPoints at the following Melee/Spell Damage Ratio
  - 25% Melee Damage + 75% <school> damage
  - 50% Melee Damage + 50% <school> damage
  - 75% Melee Damage + 25% <school> damage
- Can manually cycle through all schools by left clicking the stat
- Reset back to showing the strongest school by right click the stat
Spell Damage Reduction - Shows your strongest school by default
- Shows damage reductions for all schools
- Same click functions as the Spell TankPoints Tooltip

Supported class talants and buffs:

Warrior: Improved Defensive Stance, Shield Mastery, Shield Wall - Buff, Death Wish - Buff, Recklessness - Buff, Toughness, Vitality
Druid: Survival of the Fittest, Natural Perfection, Thick Hide, Balance of Power, Heart of the Wild
Paladin: Shield Specialization, Divine Purpose, Blessed Life, Ardent Defender, Spell Warding, Improved Righteous Fury, Divine Strength, Toughness

Romie A Deviate Faerie Dragon Forum posts: 10 File comments: 5 Uploads: 0	Hi i love this mod but one small issue, im a paladin tank and after updating to the newest version my i have gone from 3% to 5% to be crushed with holy shield active in the same gear. Just wondering what has caused this? All i can think of is either the older version i was using had problems with doing the maths correctly or the newer version has a problem doing the maths correctly. Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks Jerome

This seems to stay consistent when swapping out gear as well, doesn't fluctuate. Maybe something odd with Pally talents somehow?

Link to my Armory data if you want to use me as a guinea pig to figure out what might cause that.

TankPoints shows your stats against a +3 level mob by default(you can change this in options), Blizzard shows your stats against a same level mob.

Unlike other benchmarking points like AEP and others, TankPoints is a dynamic points system, that is calculates how many points each stat is worth according to your current gear setup, it does so to help you obtain the best balance between all "defensive stats".

For one person, TankPoints may say that Stamina is worth more points then Dodge Rating, but for another tank that has a too much Stamina it will show that Dodge Rating is worth more then Stamina, this balance is calculated mathamatically using well known game dynamics.

In other words, I didn't set the points for each stat, you already did that yourself

littlehead A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 3 Uploads: 0	I just checked, and it looks like its just the tooltips that are incorrect in its +/- of tankpoints. While in Dire Bear Form the calcualtor takes into account the armor bonus, as can be seen when manually entering stats into it, however when compared to the tooltip, there is significant differences, as though the armor bonus is not being taken into account. The bonuses to sta are being calculated, its just the armor bonus that isnt. This is the tooltip only.

Kayde A Murloc Raider Forum posts: 8 File comments: 54 Uploads: 2	I've found that some items are called as more beneficial for Druids, when they clearly are not. A weapon that has Armor on it [Braxxis' Staff of Slumber] compared to a weapon with several +stats [Staff of Beasts] is overlooked for a Druid while tanking. After all, that 550 armor equates to 2200 armor for Dire Bears. This seems like something that could be modified slightly to improve the reporting data, but I've not looked deeply enough into the code to confirm this (let alone take the time to completely understand all the math being done here, lol). __________________ Kayde of Alleria "All solutions are simple, they just need to be thought of first." - Kayde
