I agree about the 'raw power of expertise', the fact that it doubles as both a threat stat and a mitigation stat (and so cheap!) is just crazy. /sigh, LC rep grind here we come... wonder if I can pull some guildies into a few sethekk speed runs :) So between Shapeshifter’s signet, Brooch of Deftness, Bracers of the Ancient Phalanx, and the +6 expertise prot talent that’s expertise just about capped isn’t it?

The Vengeful manages to be a distinctly better item despite the same item level (although the BoAK still has more hit rating). I still use the cooldown regularly but I'll have to give it up sooner or later. WTB Avatar talent for WotLK.

It needs more stamina. I still prefer the Band of Eternity or Band of the Abyssal Lord. Totally Agree about BS. There are some good dps peices that are BOP from BT and Hyjal, but no real tanking additions. Top Tanking ring seems a little steep. It needs more stamina.

With all the great free tank advice I've gotten over the months reading this site, I think Vene should at least be on my Christmas-card list :) Thanks again, Vene. Of course, you drop this beautiful nugget of information on me two days after the Shade's ring FINALLY dropped for me.... (killed that fool 100 times and I've seen the ring twice)... As for armorsmithing... I'm hoping that blizz adds a few new bop epic craftable items. Kinda illogical that engineers, instead of Blacksmith/ARMORSMITHS, get the recipe for the best craftable plate helm....... Anyway, Merry Christmas everyone!
