Crystalline Kopesh or Terokk's Nightmace?

I've been using the Kopesh for a while, but unexpectedly got the Nightmace during an SH run earlier today. At first glance the Kopesh looks like a better tanking weapon because of the +12 defense rating, which is pretty powerful. On the other hand the Nightmace has +7 stamina, much higher damage which will help hold aggro, and expertise is better than hit rating any day of the week, especially that much of it. Seems like a reasonable tradeoff, thoughts?

Pretty decent, I would use it over the Kopesh.

You also might want to take a look at this one:

Reward from a fairly easy, but very long, quest chain in Shadowmoon Valley.

The one you linked still has more dps, and the expertise is definitely very nice.

I use this on my warrior when I tank now, but I'll be upgrading it if possible to The Sun Eater of The King's Defender:

As long as you're uncrittable you can use the Nightmace without second thoughts.

I'm only level 67, so my defense is still only around 390ish. OTOH, I don't think being uncritabble matters so much at this point, I'm still just doing basic outlands instances.

Right you are. No idea you weren't 70, but on second thought I should've guessed from the weapons you linked...
