I am a Healer.
I may not be healing ToC25H yet, but still I can tell you this:
There is ton of bursty situations where I just pray that tank survives till the holy light lands. Effective health is the key.
I dont know why I should even tell YOU, you are the tank, you should know it already.
But still, I understand why tanks often prefere the blade warding (havent seen mongoose in raid yet).
PS: Im not talking about any unequipped half-tank getting spanked in 5m.

I'd like to see a level 80
Lifestealing
.
Isn't that basically Lifeward?

If we're depending on a single enchant to survive situations like that, we're doing something wrong.
Exactly.
(I was talking about more common situations, bursts just happen, but you sorta of said it all.)

I seriously doubt it saved you over the healer just spamming heals or simply AD proc. I would say a single dodge would = more EH than this heal if you're dieing that fast. Meaning mongoose is better.

Well, even though a single dodge is alot better in that situation it's far from guaranteed in that situation, which Blood Draining procc is. I would take the guaranteed heal anyday.

Blood Draining procc is
not
guaranteed.
Not to mention you have to get it upto 5 stacks to even be at 100% potential.

A proc is guaranteed after the first 10 seconds for Prot, however the heal is too small to be worth it (around 1200). I have 5 stack up 90% of the time. I thought it was good but now I wish I got something else, either Mongoose or Blade Ward.

Assuming minimal hit (1.22% Food Buff) and expertise (16) with average boss miss chance (8%), dodge chance (6.5%), parry chance (14%), you have 80.72% chance to hit the boss.
At 1.5 attack speed with 20% attack speed bonus (raid buffed), you will have 16 melee attacks on the boss with 3.333 repeating Hammer of the Righteous, which gives you 19.333 attacks with 80.72% chance to make a succcessful hit. That is 15.6 successful attacks in 20 seconds.
With a 50% chance proc, you have 0.002% chance to miss the proc.
That is, with minimal hit, so yes, I suppose you can say the heal is guaranteed.

Its too bad the game doesnt always work like that, and many hits you could of simply dodged kill you outright. Hard for things to proc when youre dead.
I want my titan weapon enchant and we can all be done with it.
