maybe try actually reading the whole story and figuring out what i was initially replying to other than telling people not to respond on forums.

What scaling are you referring to exactly. If anything the other 3 tanks have better scaling because their self heals can crit and will and already do surpass the passive blocking the Paladin provides. Once we go further along the patch and all 4 tanks meld crit, the difference will be even greater, assuming block wont change. Seems like too many people forget that Sheltron does NOTHING to CRITS. Crit autos hurt like a motherfucker and we have to eat them everytime.
