Hi, I am fairly new to these forums and tanking in general, and wanted to know if there is anything I can do to improve my warrior. Here is my armory, any criticism/help would be very appreciated.

wrote two fantastic guides that you may want to look at.
Sword and Board - A Protection Warrior Tanking Guide (PvE)
and the follow-up
More Sword and Board - A Protection Warrior Tanking Compendium (PvE)
are highly in-depth looks at how to best play a tanking warrior. All aspects of a tanking warrior are addressed, including stat preference, gemming, rotation, and addons, providing a complete reference for tanking warriors of all skill levels.
If you don't mind going off-site, you may also want to check out Noxxic's
Protection Warrior (PvE)
guide and/or Icy Veins'
Protection Warrior
guide. Both are very in depth, and could certainly help if you have the time & desire to go through them.

I would probably change your gems to more mastery cant remember its name but the +50 mastery rating, fair enough you will loose some of the socket bonus but the extra mastery is a godsend.
Like SquireKel mentioned icy veins and noxic are very good.
Keep going with the HC's and DS to obtain more gear and valor.

I would use
AskMrRobot Gear Optimizer
and put your character in there and do the Optimize. Works wonders for people like me who don't want to learn how to do it on your own and spend more time just playing.
Works wonders for people who have no idea and dont want to learn - with completely screwing your char.
-it doesnt count on use/proc trinkets (and weapons) properly
-it tends to put some ridiculous weights as default without warning
-most weights dont count parry higher than dodge (due to hold the line), while it has been prooven even 1k rating difference can be beneficial
Its a tool. Usually when you use tool you know how it works and what you want to achieve. If you use a tool and you dont know what it does or what you want as a result some bad stuff may happen.
As all tools this one needs to be taken with grain of salt. It can automatise some stuff, but doesnt have brain.
