Looking For A Prot buildFollow

Well I am currently arms/fury & now that alot of my guild is getting close to lvl 70 I want to switch to Prot build so that I can be a better tank. Can someone help me & show me what is the best prot build as I will be doing mostly 5 man stuff....

thanks in advanced

Where would you put those three points? I'm trying to figure out where to go with those three points, Iron Will? Imp. Heroic Strike for more threat gen?

I have Improved Taunt and I do use it in Heroics but I did notice on my one trip into Kara that a lot of mobs are immune to Taunt in there. When I start doing Kara more and if a lot of it is Taunt-immune, I may change my talents a little and put those points elsewhere. I'm thinking I may take Imp Def Stance with those points and pull a point out of Tactical Mastery which I don't really use much (though I probably should practice stance dancing more).

Your gear on the whole is better than what I have, but I have at least one or two pieces you could probably put to use:

In particular I'm surprised you didn't give consideration to the shield I'm using, it seems far superior to the one you're using.

The boots are pretty good. The guide on tankspot suggests gemming those particular boots for your aggro set and keeping the ones i'm using for a mitigation set. OTOH, it doesn't look like you're exactly hurting for Defense at this point, but if you have some other stuff shelved the boots I'm using might free up some other spots for you to replace something that gives Def with something that gives stamina.

I feel your pain on the shield not dropping. The Adamantine Figurine won't drop for me either, 0/7 so far :(

I would say put the 3 into imp. heroic strike. In my opinion, imp. taunt has always been a waste of talent points. I'd be paying 2 talent points that could be better spent elsewhere..for an 8 second taunt instead of a 10 second taunt.
Now, call me crazy, but I've never had that 2 seconds be what would make or break things. In the first place, if I'm losing agro that often, I'm PROBABLY not doing my job by either 1.) Maintaining agro properly, or 2.) Making the DPS focus fire. If agro is being ripped off of me that commonly, which I will admit I have had my off days, I need to get my sh*t together. The talent points aren't the problem, I am. But that aside, in those occasional instances where I just CAN'T seem to hold agro for the life of me, imp. taunt would never have been the game breaker. I'd normally have 6-7 seconds left on cooldown...and if it's only losing agro like that once or twice in an isntance, like it should be...don't rely on wasted talent points. Stance dance and hit mocking blow, or use challenging shout. You should know how to stance dance already anyways, think on your toes and utilize this important aspect of tanking.

The only time I notice my taunt on cooldown is when I try to use it to grab the next CC mob to take down and I get a resist and I cannot grab aggro off the CC'er fast enough to keep him from taking a hit or two.
