My priest has died sooo many times to people like you who take the "fun" specs and are (as said above) as threatening as a fluffy kitten. No, you do NOT hold aggro, not even close to what you could be holding. In addition, you skip avoidance, which means you take more damage, which stresses out the healer for no reason other than "I wanted to have fun in my crap-tastic spec of failure".
Read the stickies and be a real tank.

Who the hell puts together a tanking spec that doesn't at least cover 5/8/5?
QFT.
Oh and to answer your question baddies and death tards.
This is why people hate us.

This. I'm surprized the thread grew past this point.
While there's some viable non-cookie-cutter tank specs, none of them as bad as the ones made by this troll, and all of them are frost.
/lock please.

So THIS is the person I need to shoot for all the DW Blood builds I've been seen in the Moon Guard battle group lately...
For the love of god no.... if you get ANYONE that's capable of decent DPS I don't care how much threat you claim to be putting out it's not going to work... Please stop telling people that it does. I have seen pretty much every damn variation of DW tank that's not frost including an unholy tank that speced into boosted 2h damage.... I haven't even bothered to look at your spec because you stated it was DW blood and then later stating that you took points out of Bladed Armor to put them into Icy Talons. You took points out of threat generation to change yourself into a walking windfury totem with hit points. Sure, due to the new patch your single target MIGHT be fine. However if someone so much as breathes AoE, and yes that includes a healer just healing their pants off just to keep you up on a good chunk of fights even in heroics, you will lose agro, people will die, they will blame you, be right, and you will be booted. DW Blood, from every single one of the suckers I've seen, has no AoE threat at all and the single target forces most geared DPS to do mostly white damage so they don't stripped agro from the DK in two hits. Sometimes one.
I've always been the person that's showed up stating that DW is fine. However I feel that I must now specify that and state that DW frost is fine IF and only IF you spec it properly and have an idea of what the hell you're doing. As things stand right now I've been taking up 2h frost since I was lucky and got the axe from saurfang 10 man. In all irony, I've still got the same minor threat issues that I had with DW frost tanking, but that's only if DPS doesn't pay attention to threat at the start. There is no making up for threat with DW blood. The only way you won't lose threat as that spec is because in heroics things die fast.
