I'm levelling my warrior prot with 8 in arms (me and my friend are holy pally and prot warrior doing only instances, so it works). I was wondering if I should stay with my current build when I hit 40, or if I should respec to full prot so I can get shield slam.

I'd stay with Imp. TC.

The AE threat is invaluable, and you'll lose quiet a bit of damage mitigation by going Prot at that point (yes, irony) by dropping the 5% Parry and TC slow.

EDIT: Shield Slam is great, but it only starts being superb when you can stack +block value. While leveling it's likely to be a minimal boost over Sunder/Revenge.

Thanks, RP. Good info and advice. I'll probably pick it up around level 47 then, which may still be "early" but whatever.
