Hello, WoWhead DK forum!
I'm trying to gear up my DK to tank for my buddies' 10man. So far they've carried me through Ony10 to get the helm and her head for the trinket, and i've been farming regToC5 and HToC5 for the tanking stuff outta there. So i'm not so much looking for advice on what gear to try for, but if there is any advice, i'd like to hear it.
My gear is as follows for
Baynn.
My true question is simple, how does my frost tank
spec
look. I'm not gonna be maintanking, just the offtank. any advice would be nice. So far i've really only had a problem keeping aggro in heroics when i'm in a group with gearscore/skill near my own, but its somewhat tougher when i run with guys from my 10man (who have gs's of 4900-5202 and skill.
So any advice and help would be appreciated.

2h specialization is a must.
I have never used bladed armor for frost tanking and I never have agro issues.
Icy reach is great for making sure all the mobs in a loose group get hit by HB and allows you to pull from farther away.
I find acclimation very, very reliable when fighting magic users.
Considering DnD has a much higher threat modifier than HB or BB, morbidity is useful, especially if you have threat issues.
2 points in scent of blood is all the extra RP you will need. Chill of the grave is unneeded.
See my spec below. I have frost and blood tank specs and use both for tanking Ony and ToC, 10 and 25 man.

Harmacy, a buddy in our 10 man bought that ring for me, and i know that my gear is kinda sucky atm. The 10 man group that i'm gonna be running with has ran me through ony10 twice, VoA10 twice, and ToC10 once. Mostly what i was wondering about was how my spec was looking. not my gear, cuz i know it needs improved upon.
