Anybody could give out the defense rating from gears required for level 72-79 to be crit immune vs mobs 3 lvl over you (aka raid boss)?
I know 70 is 332 and 80 is 689.

70 is 490, add 5/level after that = 80 540
GG being stupid. I said RATING.

Don't call people stupid when you don't have your bases covered.
Go to your defenses tab on your character sheet and mouse over Defense. If your chance to be crit is reduced by 5.6%, you will be crit immune against mobs at most three levels higher than you.
You don't need to be def capped while leveling to 80, the dungeons are easy enough if you have high stam and some def, you'll be fine with a non-retarded healer. I don't know why you'd care so much.

I am afraid your question has no answer currently. All we know is that you need 140 Defense skill to push those 5.6% critical chance off the table, but as you probably know, Defense Rating (DR) gives different amount of Defense Skill (DS) at different levels. At level 80, you need 4.92 DR to get 1 DS. At level 70 it was ~2.37. In between? We don't know.
If the progression was linear, which it is
not
, at each level you'd need 0.255 more DR per point of DS (~36 DR/level), than on the previous level. Which means:
71
: 2.525 DR = 1 DS;
367
DR for Crit Immunity
72
: 2.880 DR = 1 DS;
403
DR for Crit Immunity
73
: 3.135 DR = 1 DS;
438
DR for Crit Immunity
74
: 3.390 DR = 1 DS;
474
DR for Crit Immunity
75
: 3.645 DR = 1 DS;
510
DR for Crit Immunity
76
: 3.900 DR = 1 DS;
546
DR for Crit Immunity
77
: 4.155 DR = 1 DS;
581
DR for Crit Immunity
78
: 4.410 DR = 1 DS;
617
DR for Crit Immunity
79
: 4.665 DR = 1 DS;
653
DR for Crit Immunity
80
: 4.920 DR = 1 DS;
689
DR for Crit Immunity
Those numbers are, of course, incorrect, but I am inclined to believe they are somewhat close to reality.
There is a chance that Skosiris has found the formula that connects DR and DS at all levels, but I don't know that. Digging through Internet didn't show it to me, so I assume it is not a well known formula.

Tkx to state the obvious. If I am asking it is most likely because I have no way to find these numbers without leveling another character to 71+ (because guess what? I am already over that).
And I care because I am making a guide for some people and often they gonna tank boss 3 lvl over their and being critted while the boss is enraged is never fun for the healer.
@ArgentSun: Thanks alot, its more than I could find. Yeah I know there is not much information about it on the web.

ArgentSun, we actually do have this formula. Defense rating to defense conversions use the same
combat ratings formula
as all the other ratings so the correct defense rating for +140 defense at each level is:
71:
357
72:
384
73:
413
74:
444
75:
478
76:
514
77:
553
78:
595
79:
640
If you like I've got a defense to defense rating calculation buried in my
parry
and
dodge
calculators. I've been meaning to get around to making defense it's own page one of these days.
Sadly I have to agree with underlie. If ArgentSun didn't seem to be able to use this information I certainly wouldn't have spent any time on this thread.
