First, You in DPS gear....
If you are in Full 25 Naxx
Tank
gears, you will be fine with Offtanking
Second, I did not know Unholy gives Magic damage boost, maybe you mean Magic damage reducations
Third, Benefits been Unholy is magic damage reducations, it goes either way.
Fourth, XT? You single tank it in hard mode?
No, I dont think you can pick all adds up and tank the boss at same time, unless your guild has really good dps which killing about 23% of XT's HP each time Heart Expose.
Fifth, I do not think any boss in Ulduar can single tank, there always has adds.
Maybe except Hodir, the ice boss, where you free 4 npc from ice block first, I think that is the only one. That is the only one i can recall that is single tank possible... you need good frost gear, there are taunt off time it think, Dont remember it clearly.

Ebon Plaguebringer talent brings 13% magic damage boost and yes hodir is the only single tanked boss. To answer the posters question i have tanked iron council hard mode with 4/5 valorous and naxx offset pieces as blood tank, but that is the only encounter i have gotten to attempt hard mode so far.

You got both spec? Can you post?
Hmm yeah, ebon...
You trading 5% of dodge, 6 sec IBF, HB, OB, melée haste, FS
For Ss, slow enemies by 100% (not sure), magic damage deduction,UB, 1 extra disease, bone shield, ghoul. (if you getting one)
For other, AoE magic damage deduction, magic damage boost.
Just wondering how many magic class players your guild has?
And how many are raiding, I don't feel like changing to unholy for magic damage boost, but if there are more than 15 Magic class player raiding with you, go ahead and change. If only 10 I don't think change is good. You will also lose some threat.
And I tank 10man ulduar hard mode with frost without wipe if no one did stupid stuff. I tank the iron council for 25man ulduar, but I think it was kinda rough...

Ebon plaguebringer doesnt stack with
Boomkin
and
Warlock
so i wouldnt base tanking spec on it. Since you already got Warlock its only 3% gain. Unless you want to give him a free Curse slot.
only the warlock has to give up on a curse that actually does dmg. as you can see he doesn't have a boomkin
