"The truth of the matter is that a tank's actual EH at any given second exists in an ill-understood miasma of talent choices, cooldowns, trinkets, healer procs, and boss debuffs, set against the backdrop of bosses who hit for variable amounts at variable speeds with equally variable special abilities"

This is actually something that I've been aware of for a long time. I'm in the process of building an addon that tracks EH as a health bar. The bar itself grows with more EH, so you can see how cooldowns, stances, and procs all make the bar as a whole get longer. It turns that "ill-understood miasma" into a distinctly visual experience.

The mod is good to go for warriors, and will soon be getting the other classes in and a visual overhaul in preparation for a release.
