http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=49919 or http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=50070. Depends on your current gear and whether you need hit or expertise. The sword is the more common option, though.Quote:

Oh, and costs a ****ton of money.
Why sucks? Do you even played dk as tank outside icc10n? Shadowmourne is best choice for 2 hander stamina tank and yes blood=full stamina these stats expertise/hit **** them 54k (55 with gloren, lol) normal unbuffed with 7k+ dps as tank (at least before the wipe, now idk how are things with dps on wotlk since playing mop, but should be the same) plus if you don't know strength gives parry rating 270 str and aoe proc as off tank on lk making +thread on everythingQuote:

One more thing
You can get Signified Ring of Binding from onyxia25 if you solo tank sindragosa, because armor and defense fall when you change boots and X item with frost resistance and this ring is perfect ( 800 armor / 55 defense + 30 all resistance)
thanks all very much i have settled on http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=50730 , it was either this or the http://wotlk.openwow.com/item=50603
FYI shadowmourne has less stamina compared to glorenzelg.Quote:

It is pretty interesting to tank with SM, as orc you get bonus 5 expertise, don't forget about that. But for other races use Glorenzerglrgrl and leave SM for your DPS spec. :)
