Imho go for chest piece. There is a chance of getting nice and sexy
Broken Ram Skull Helm
from (easily puggable) Lady Deathwhisper 25. I prefer having 1 264 item and chance of getting another one from easy boss to having 1 ilvl 251 piece and 1 ilvl 245.

Your spec makes me cry and your gemming needs some work, but I'm going to try not to write an essay here.
Yet he could still get into a pug because all pug leaders care about these days are lolgearscore. Even if someone is clearly an idiot. In this case I don't know because I didn't look him up.
On my server I have 6 pieces of 277 heroic ICC25 gear, 7 if you count the rep ring. No idea what my gearscore is. And quite often I try to get into pugs that are doing 10 man icc. I say no I don't know what my gearscore is, and no I don't have the 10 man achievement because all I do is 25 man content. Half the time they don't let me in the group. Thats when I link them my heroic 25 man ICC kills and all my 277 gear and ask for an estimate of what my gearscore might be.
EDIT: Yeah I just looked this one up on the armory. LOL parry gems? dodge gems? 2 points in divinity and 1 point in guardians favor, and 0 points in divine sacrifice and divine guardian? Imp hammer of justice but no vindication? 2/2 SA? Yep, this one is on the 'don't raid with this retard' list lol.

im aware is a much "better" and (I use the term loosley) spec
Nahh that has 1 point in benediction. Even though it is only one single point, it screams IM A RETARD! Yet, it's still far better than your piece of *!@# spec though.

The reason I have some dodge/parry gems that also have 15stam is b/c the socket bonus is close to a 30stam gem so I sacrifice a couple pts of stamina for 10 dodge/parry. At 42k hp I prefer to just not get hit rather than have 200-300 more hp.
Unfortunatly for retards like you, blizzard is steering towards tanks who get hit more often and who can soak more damage, rather than tanks who try to avoid as much as possible. Avoidance is still on the random number generator and you can still get hit 10 times in a row even with 99% avoidance. It happens, and a raid wipe or boss kill can rest solely on bad luck with the random number generator. That's exactly why there is so much bonus armor on the gear in place of defense dodge and parry, and thats why you see all the good tanks running around with nothing but stamina gems and the pvp stam shoulder enchant and all the stamina enchants on all their gear. That is also why there is a 20% dodge debuff in the zone.
for those calling me a retard or my way of playing retarded I do not see your armory anywhere especially the one with "6-7 pieces of 277 gear" Id like to see it personally just my humble opinion.

I'm guessing it makes you feel better at home with no family or anyone that probably either cares about you or loves you
I feel like you've known me my whole life.
I will end with; I would be supremely disappointed if for some reason you woke up to find your character wearing the twill set and all your gold gone, if only there was some way to do that :)
My anti virus software expired a week ago and I have been going to all those advertised websites where you can get mounts and pets and get cataclysm betas and such.

Most of the 277 gear I only equipped just to show I have it. I swap out the chest and gloves for 264 T10 for the bonus armor. I gain 2k armor at the expense of 1k health. That is what I use most of the time. I only swap in the chest and gloves on fights where having a higher health pool is better than having more armor. As for the trinket, I only put it on just to show I have it.
As for the weapon, you would have to be stupid to not use it. It's either use that or use a 251 or 245. I suppose I could get past the expertise soft cap with my facelifter but doing so I would end up losing in the long run. The facelifter is worth 55 strength raid buffed, whereas the weapon is worth 125. In terms of threat, I would only be gaining significantly from that 1 point of expertise, and the other 3 wouldn't be worth the loss of 70 strength because expertise drops off after the soft cap. I would also gain unnecessary avoidance and defense, and lose the 300 bonus healing. PLUS the weapon speed from last word makes it one of the best threat weapons in the game. Simply being .2 slower than most tanking weapons actually makes a noticable difference.
Being expertise capped isn't the be all end all of paladin tanking. It's our #1 threat stat yes but expertise is hard to come by in ICC25. I quit running ICC10 a month ago because I started to get burnt out. And my guild has heroic valithria dreamwalker on farm. Guess what that means. I currently have her normal mode boots, and I'm at 25. Heroic mode boots provides 1 more expertise skill. All I need to do is wait for them to drop and grab them and I got 26 expertise. I suppose I could change a gem or enchant to get expertise soft capped but I would sacrifice survivability for threat. And yeah my dps pushes my threat pretty good, but considdering my guild is at the hardest hard modes in ICC, I'm not about to sacrifice my survivability and risk wiping raids because only a mere point away from the soft cap. Right now my threat is pretty solid, and I'm happy with my survivability. If I could only get the 277 shield from BQL to drop........
Though I am curious to know why you seem to think the second best tanking weapon (only second to the 277 heroic version) warrants a comment like "I feel sorry for the poor bastards healing you"
