Would be cool to have defense rating showing on the stats, like ingame.

+1. I like knowing when someone is gemming "RNG"(essentially) and is probably a bad tank.

Gosh.. allways same thing. Resilience = damage from players. Not from PvE.
So make defence and resilience. Maby PvP combined. (There is allways 1 paladin calling him self def capped when using pvp gear in resi.)
. .
Resilience is a character attribute that reduces all damage taken from players and their pets or minions. This is the bread and butter PvP stat. The reduction has no effect on the damage taken from mobs. Says every source for 3.3.5. So If you find something then please.
Last time I had a tank hard gemming defense, going for like 600 def in ToGC25, he kept dying by adds like no tomorrow. Ever since then I started paying attention to tanks and their gemming defense or not - every single tank who went for weird def rating + xyz gems to satisfy insignificant socket bonuses has been a disaster for me. So yes, seeing as people have solidified def rating gemming as a symptom of idiocy, I'd like to be able to see that in armory instead of adding yet another addon to my already pointlessly large addons list, or doing quik mafs on the spot...

Nope. Was a prot paladin with enough gear to get def cap just from the gear itself, yet he kept hard gemming for it and in turn get oneshot by adds.
But back to the point. Seeing *an accurate* printout of defense on the armory would be a nice addition.
general avoidance is trash, and is only good on icecrown in 30% raids when your hp is well over 80k and it takes like 8 seconds of not being healed AND not using any CDS to die as a tank, and 1 holy light from an hpala will pop you back to full hp anyways.
Flat Damage Reduction + Hp/Armor + crit cap is how a good tank should gem/gear for.
