Dancer tank gear? Help Me Out!

[Frost]

I think you're missing the point of I am the person constanty face-to-face with the mob so there is never a point where it is not working.

Except you're capped on accuracy and you're capped on evasion. So no, you're not using it...

If you're not looking for advice, and you're more bent of displaying the merits of your choices in the face of conflicting information fine, carry on.

But that's tantamount to one saying "What tool should I use on screws? Don't tell me to use a Screwdriver, I already want to use a hammer!"

This is one of the drawbacks of not reading what people post, I've already explained why you shouldn't typically need/use Closed Position and/or Evasion gear while tanking, but since you've glazed over it and missed the point, you just look like a fool now. The information is on this very page, if you chose not to read it fine, but it's ill advised to peruse a position that's already been proven inferior or false, especially when it's you looking for advice.

So you're saying that when my base evasion skill by job, hits it's skill cap. Then merits and gear do nothing for it.
