I think the glyph system and inscriptions need to be divorced.

For Glyphs, the biggest successes are the ones that modify spell abilities, primarily pvp vs pve. For example, removing knockbacks...

I guess the question I have is if it is relevant, as compared to picking up windwalk. Sure, parry is slightly better due to HtL, but windwalk has a much higher uptime (about 30% by some estimates)....

To add to Jere

You get dodge from agi (until 4.2, then only bears get it)
You get Parry from Str at 25% rate (27% potentially in 4.2)

I believe AGI gains or STR gains are affected by DR...

What loganisis said, it's not in your hit/expertise, you need to work on your spec/rotation/glyphs (in that order). And by far, not glyphing your seal of truth is the biggest problem for your glyphs....

Some understanding of threat abiltiies for each class helps

It's a learning curve. If you have tanked, even just once, you should know a surprising amount. However, as you progress, you hit he curve hard, and it helps to know where you are.

As long as you have a hunter, most buffs or utility is covered by a pet. And there's other stuff, like drums from WotLK for kings/motw, or fort scrolls and such to help fill the gaps. And who doesn't...

Clarifying acronyms.

It sounds like the OP might be comfortable with AoE threat , or can explain it on the DPS side. Also, it sounds like it's the warriors rather than other tanks.

Assuming single target, there's a...

Put the abilities together from a healer's perspective

10 seconds of extra HP going to everyone. The tank *may* get an extra full hit or two out of it, before it is lost, as it's only 6-7 GCDs...

Just to re-echo what others are saying:

I find DPS to be incapable of co-ordinating cast times.

If it's a SAP + 1 other CC no problem.

If it's a Trap + 1 other, and the "Other" is smart, as soon as the trap hits the ground there is a...

While most people advocate mastery, just remember to meet your meta gem requirements. There's enough blue slots where you can drop a stam/mastery for you to do that usually.

Gearing is not that difficult. Below is a quick, and likely incomplete, list of items you can get very soon after hitting 85, most of it is BoEs readily available on the AH. Rep based items assumed...

Kren, you are far too nice for what it really was.

Anyways, I was thinking Guarded by the Light could be toyed with. Mastery increases the size of the heal (or heal bubble), in addition to a Holy...

Honestly, FL vs DL is the same argument for just about every healer (although they did make it a bit cloudy for resto druids with regrowth and HT). Every healer, not just paladins, has a "Quick,...

I know that mastery is really good, and that warriors have a lot of rapid movement tools (charge, intercept, intervene), but runspeed is still better than most other enchants. There is a run...

Don't expect you to spam yourself to full health. there are only so many Deathcoils per full rune bar, and lichborne only lasts so long. Now if Frost had access to the old Rune Power from AMS (now a...

We're glad to help, but we do ask that you read a bit. You are getting some of it and investigating, which is good.

Amen brother. I hate that. At the least, give it to both arms and fury (i,e. both battle and berserker stance).

The real answer (which I suspect you are not getting, despite everyone here telling you)
It doesn't matter what tank you take. What matters is how you gear it and more importantly, how you play it....

Highly situational, but as was pointed out earlier, if you have a moment where you are DPSing but off the boss while the other tank has aggro, it could work, you aren't expected to have aggro so the...
