question on Dk tanking in cataclysm

So i know that defense is being taken out and every class is supposed to get talents that make them crit immune, similar to what the druids already have.
Now i can see this working with Palys, warriors, and druids. however the dk has no specified tanking tree like the other 3 tanking classes.
does anyone have any information on how this will work for dks? like the talent will be in the first tier of frost or added to frost presence? and if you have a link to where a dev posted some info that'd be great too.

No exact info of this sort has been released, only general information. Gonna have to wait a few months for that answer.

Yeah, theres no info, but they will probably just get a crit reduction talent in every tree. With the recent changes to resilience, this shouldn't have much effect on PvP.

There are 3 possibilities:
It could be a tier 1 talent on one tree (e.g. how Toughness, Blade Barrier, and Anticipation work).
It could be a deep talent in each tree (unlikely, as they do not want redundant talents).
It could be a deep talent in one tree, and that tree would be the tanking tree (unlikely, as they want DKs to use all 3 specs to tank, unless they decide to change their design philosophy - which they have done in the past).
So...the first looks most likely, but can't be sure.

I bet frost presence = crit immunity.

Or they could simply add 6% reduced incoming crit on Frost Presence. That's not "immunity" (especially vs. players) but it would be immune vs. PvE bosses.
