I'd like to consolidate formulas to determine the relative strength of post 3.0.2 paladin tanking gear in terms of their effectiveness at increasing TPS. Mitigation stats really aren't changing in terms of their usefulness, except that block rating will be even more useless due to no longer being concerned with crushing blow immunity.
I'd like to get a sense for how to evaluate nice, slow high TPS one handed tanking weapons warriors traditionally used exclusively against the ubiquitous Hammer of Judgement I have been using since we set foot in Hyjal.
I'd like to look at some of the warrior tanking gear from the badge vendor or hyjal/BT bosses that I see drop regularly and get a sense for whether it will provide more TPS than my current +dmg/+int paladin tanking gear that will soon be converted.
However, I'd also like to get some work done at the office, spend time with my two kids, and raid 3.5 nights a week, plus spend time with my wife.
Given those two wants, if anyone sees work being done on consolidation of known (through experimentation or math or both) rules of thumb for comparing gear post 3.0.2, post a link here, and I'll do the same =)
