Okay... first off, thanks for the advice I've gotten on this forum from reading and asking a few stupid questions.
Now, I'm going through looking at what gear I want to have that is prot in nature. I'm 1 bar from 68 right now and just got a nice chest in Nagrand. I was looking for other stuff, but it seems to be mostly netherstorm I need to go to. So, I was re-reading the pally tank FAQ and I've been focused on getting lots of +defense. I have 381 now, but will be over 450 in the near future. Now, this cuts out the crits from bosses, but I need +parry/+dodge to avoid damage completely and +block to help with my shield block percentage (partial damage mitigation). Am I doing this right, by concentrating on +defense or should I be getting +block first/+dodge first? What's the right weighting to put on +defense vs. +dodge vs. +block vs. +parry? (I do have the +20 defense anticipation talent). My armory is here if you care to peruse it.
