Hi there.. currently working on my tank abilities and am starting to hit the wall with where to go to next. I know I am missing my weapon / shoulder chants at the moment but am working on rep for shoulders and wondering to wait for a better weapon to chant and not waste 1k gold.
If someone can lend some advice on what I should upgrade next, different gems, or something in general that would be great. I am having problems with threat occasionally and have a hard time taunting targets off the other tank in DS.
Here is my armory link

Thanks in advance.

wrote two fantastic guides that you may want to look at.
Sword and Board - A Protection Warrior Tanking Guide (PvE)
and the follow-up
More Sword and Board - A Protection Warrior Tanking Compendium (PvE)
are highly in-depth looks at how to best play a tanking warrior. All aspects of a tanking warrior are addressed, including stat preference, gemming, rotation, and addons, providing a complete reference for tanking warriors of all skill levels.
If you don't mind going off-site, you may also want to check out Noxxic's
Protection Warrior (PvE)
guide and/or Icy Veins'
Protection Warrior
guide. Both are very in depth, and could certainly help if you have the time & desire to go through them.

good all around
build
with threat talents. for you i would keep vigilance because you're having threat issues. put it on your co-tank for help building & maintaining full vigilance plus free taunts when you lose threat. once you feel more comfortable with your threat, you can move those points to shield spec.
also, be sure on taunt swap fights that you warn your co-tank that he out gears you and to please be careful with threat on swaps. if you're losing threat to the other tank on trash, it really doesn't matter.
if you do still feel like you want some threat gear, expertise is by far your best threat stat.
you should pick up the
Mirror of Broken Images
from TB - it's still good on some fights in DS.

Made appropriate changes. Now up to 95.15 ctc and getting better.Thanks for the advice. Anything I missed?
Oh and Nerragaan.. where do you get your reforge info from? I just import mine to wowreforge and click optimize. Some of the results are very different then yours I think. I did however take your advice and switch it up. Thanks

Becuase I didn't look at the build you posted. I would drop the 2 points in Cruelty before Shield Spec. That's a lot of rage he could be gaining for Heroic Strikes/Cleaves. IMO that is.
Also, yes to MoBI.
i agree for heroics, but in raids it seems like rage is plentiful enough without it. especially on single target boss fights where the rage contribution of shield spec is meh.
