I tried to search viable builds in this forum but seems like most of them are outdated and people get into meaningless arguments for pages and pages.
I will be the tank of my party with my friends and we will start with dungeons. After we make good gears and stuff we will probably PVP.
I would be very happy if you guys can help me. I am lvl 78 right now and I don't have good gear.

You could start with this one f.e.:

If you plan on transitioning from dungeons to pvp you could even use unholy to get to know it better.
Thank you a lot jendah
For raids: https://wotlk.evowow.com/?talent#j0E...g0xVMhz:pim0VM
For dungeons: https://wotlk.evowow.com/?talent#j0E...x0MZ0xh:oim0VM
You will be able to tank dungeons with the "raid" build aswell once you get into it, and you will buff Melee DPS by a lot with Icy Talons. If your friends play casters mainly, just go with dungeon spec and enjoy.
You could maybe even go for:

If you plan on doing Dungeons Only, since Will of the Necro wont proc or save you in dungeons from my point of view.
This spec can also work for Dungeons:

And will mainly buff the melee dps and make those mobs die faster.
If you look at the specs i sent you, you can notice the base that is taken almost every time, after that its up to you to decide which one will be more helpfull for the situations you are encountering.
I don't know if someone told you blood is THE tanking spec, or if you come from a newer expansion. But blood isn't good at dungeon tanking.
dont argue with gnimo,,, he'll pwn u
