Hello everybody,
I started off a carefree frost DPS but I now find myself with better Tank gear than DPS gear and in front of Cologarn having successfully tanked all previous Heroic Bosses.
I have converted my Titansteel Destroyer to tanking with Stone Skin Gargoyle and I was not lucky enough to have Inevitable Defeat drop.
I find myself looking for a substantial upgrade that will allow me to Tank Ulduar 25 up to Yoggie.
I would like the community's informed opinion on this.
Salutations

The first two comments on
this item
might interest you. Expertise, IMO, is an awesome stat to have on a weapon. Its the only stat that adds both to your threat generation, and also improves your survivability in a way (by reducing parry-hasted attacks). Add the fact that the Expertise hard cap is so high, that Expertise never really becomes bad to stack, and you have an excellent tanking weapon. (because seriously, what other stat that usually comes with two handed weapons might be useful for you? hit cap is not hard to get, and all the others are DPS)

World Carver is just nice if u can get it, i bet u need to roll against DPS players like every 2hander weapon there is.
Inevitable Defeat is still a nice weapon to get and will last till u get this the worldcarver.
Also i see the new s6 weapons are nice to
if u already have some Expertise
:
192 Stam + 2sockets filled with avoidance gems or Expertise gems.
AP 224 (236 if gem bonus) equals 112 Str (118 if bonus) on weapon
70 crit rating to help getting threat.
Both has a worthless stat (Carver has Haste - S6 has resilience)
S6 with dodge gems beats the stam + str parry bonus from the WorldCarver. But miss out on expertise so only intresting if u have the expertise on other gear.
Only draw back is that u need 2200+ arena rating.
Axe
Mace
Sword

Wrong. AP don't give you more parry, Strenght does.
