Quote:One other thing I noticed in respect to DK tanking is there are no two handed weapons that are built for tanking. Not a single two handed weapon that is in the level 80 use range has defense, parry, or dodge, they're all setup for DPS while there are many one handed weapons specifically setup for Warrior and Paladin tanking. They need to alleviate this issue as well for DK tanking instead of having the DK depend completely on their armor for their tanking stats unlike Warriors and Paladins that look to their weapon and shield to give them a number of tanking stats along with their armor.
This would be fun for ret spec off tanking or 5 man tanking. Though admittedly I'm not 80 yet so I haven't seen how ret fairs in a heroic or raid as an off tank, but I've still tanked more than anything else as I've done normal 5 mans and not really had an issue. I have been throwing on my tanking set which has a sword and board in it (I can't stay uncrit without the extra stats right now), but it would be interesting to try some 2H tanking as ret.
