Take 2 from toughness and dump it in defiance and it is solid on the protection side.
If you can get your base block rate to 25%, the +75% block from the shield block skill pushes crushing blow off the table. That is huge. Imp shield block then is a huge mitigation factor for raiding. Last stand saves the bacon alot, and is worth it.
On the arms side I see you are skipping impale and my guess is you dont want deep wounds taking up a debuff slot. That is fine. It is very annoying trying to CC something that has deep wounds.
