Im tanking with spec 0/49/12 , its the best spec for a paladin tank. I was trying 0/51/10 but 0/49/12 is much better.

Never, the 0/49/12 is an ideal generalization spec.
Things to note:
Shield Specialization and Ardent defender are AoE tanking talents, not maintanking talents. They are meant for trash and things like MH trash waves.
Precision is important unless you surpass melee hit rating and spell hit rating cap.
Reckoning diminishes with avoidance, therefore, taking reckoning as you gain better gear makes less sense.

upon looking at the second i'd take the 5 out of reckoning and put in ardent defender for when you go to MH or if past it, go back to MH.
i might even give it a whirl when i go bk to prot in a couple of days. but the way i just mentioned.
as Blademeld already said, it gets worse when you get better.
i'm currently on 27%dodge (when buffed) so it will proc less and less

Why would a protetion/tanking build not have Blessing of Kings?

cause the holy paladin have it in 25 mans

I respecced out of it for soloing purposes, personally. ;)
But then again, we don't have enough people for the 25-mans yet so we're still milking Kara for badges and that last little bit of gear, in the hopes that we can skip straight to ZA if we can get enough badge gear.

Don't underestimate the strength of improved retribution aura
would you care to share what it's strength is?
that being the difference between using retribution aura or improved retribution aura.
Coz imho opinion improved retribution aura is just crap.
I agree, 2 talent points to add +13 to every damaging melee attack taken is not good. Especially as gear gets better and avoidance improves. More importantly, where are you taking the talent points from to get that high in the ret tree and get that talent.

So improved ret aura...means more damage. So think of Improved ret aura+ the t5 2 piece bonus...Thats comes to about 45 damage a tick. Hmmm thats almost a consecrate...for FREE...
Except it's not free. You had to take 5 points out of protection to get improved Ret Aura; which talent is worth gimping for this?

This thread is going south.
On a side note, I have Improved Retribution Aura for soling and AoE'ing lower instances, however, I have high enough TPS that it hardly makes a difference in a single target situation.
