I have very similar specs for 5mans, just piercing howl point as 3rd point to Incite and glyphed sunder armor, not shield wall, because shield wall is useless in 5mans

actually, i love piercing howl. i had first picked it up when we started working on ToGC faction champs, but i was planning to drop it soon after.
then i found it coming in useful other places, like the anub adds in the burrow phase. i still planned to drop it for ICC, but then i realized how great it was to use right when saurfang's adds spawned. then the second wing opened, and i started using it for precious' zombies.
bottom line is, i keep finding uses for it. it's certainly not a mandatory tanking talent, but it's not useless at all for PVE.

If you want pure survivability i would recommend imp demo if you dont have a steady raid comp providing a pally to apply the debuff for you. Your threat will be lower with that compared to deepwounds but you have all the necessary tanking talents.
By which I'm sure you mean either a paladin or a DPS warrior. The latter give up a LOT less than a prot warrior by speccing into imp demo shout.

Spec I'm using for 10 man ICC. Piercing Howl is great for Saurfang and it's only 1 point. I also get use out of it in 5 mans when Caster AoE'ers are trigger happy. Threat hasn't been an issue in ICC so I went pure survival. My main Spec is DPS, my tank gear isn't stellar. So when I'm asked to tank 10 mans this Spec helps keep me alive a bit longer. Two points can be removed from Focused Rage if your MT'ing, but I can't argue that there's a better place for them.
For just 5 mans I'd suggest the Cookie Cutter Deep Wounds build. Surviability shouldn't be an issue. If it is, it's gear not Spec.
