Pre-submission edit: My question is ONLY from a PVE standpoint.
I am absolutely not a min max player, and am against it for my own gameplay, but I do have a question related to the concept of min maxing. When it comes down to the racials for tauren stamina (*00 HP @ 60 if I recall) and elven dodge percent (+1%?), which is overall better? When I played retail vanilla, we had an incredible druid tank in our raiding guild (Horde), but I remember him saying that if he were an elf, things would be a bit better for him. Druid tanking largely relied on defense capping, and damage avoidance if I recall, stacking huge amounts of armor, defense, and avoidance, with naturally enormous pools of HP.
So which is overall more helpful? I am asking this assuming all calculations and stats work correctly and so on, and also assuming the tank is wanting to push the limits of his class for the absolute most effective and farthest reaching tank content-wise.
InB4 warrior, reroll, just heal me and so on.
