I tried to make my self more comfortable using your guide ( using the glyphs you suggested and the talents) altrought i could not get over the fact that i have a different play style. The most important abilities i use are : clash, guard, keg smash and fire breath (And jab of course). So i was wondering to ask, is it ok if i take glyphs of fire breath and clash instead of the ones used for healing spheres?

So I've read Sunnier's blog and understand where she's coming from with Mastery being the best stat for damage smoothing, but from what I can tell using Simcraft, until a fairly high ilvl (mine being 540, definitely above that), STA + Haste is much better for smoothing than Mastery or STA + Mastery if you weight by the TMI (http://www.sacredduty.net/2014/03/13/crowdsourcing-tmi/).

Actually got the following Pawn string: ( Pawn: v1: "Ruìnà": Agility=0.15, Stamina=0.28, ExpertiseRating=0.04, HitRating=0.04, CritRating=0.10, HasteRating=0.20, MasteryRating=0.12, Armor=0.16 )

I would not recommend stam at all unless you are SEVERELY undergeared for the content you are doing.

 

Haste scales better with ascension as your ilvl gets higher making haste a good choice.

 

It comes down to what you value more in terms of your contributions to the boss fight.

 

You could stack mastery and stam and have a very smooth damage intake with a massive health pool and a massive effective health pool but, your damage output would be less, raid guards would be less and you may be chunky in heavy magic or non dodged/parried attacks but because of the mastery you would not be 1 shot.

Or you could just get enough mastery that it acts as a small buffer after stagger and then dump the rest into crit and haste. This will give more raid guards, more dps, more EB and provide more for the raid as a team.

 

So as for simcraft and Brewmasters yes damage reduction wise mastery is probably the "safer" option but damage reduction/mitigation is not the only role of a tank in its current state.
