Maybe best of all, you can get it fairly easily since you can run the looking for raid version of Dragon Soul to get a lower level version and then get the higher level one when it finally drops in your raid group.
The Second best tanking shield — Shard of Torment: The second best tanking shield in the game currently still comes from the Firelands raid from the boss Balearic. This means that many players will not have access to it as Firelands does not have a looking for raid option.
The shield itself though is amazing, having two gem slots that grant a stamina bonus, as well as two avoidance stats: dodge and parry. This makes the shield pretty much perfect.
For those out there that collect items this is one you will want to get as it has a cool look as well, and is worth having for transmogrification.
The first best tanking weapon – Souldrinker: This sword offers an impressive damage proc as well as an even better self heal effect.
The best tanking weapon in the game right now has got to be Soul drinker. It has no defensive or avoidance stats on it at all, and looks almost like a PVP hand weapon. While the PVP part is true, it makes an awesome PVP or solo PVE weapon for characters that can use one-handed swords, it still makes a rock solid tank weapon.
It comes with a huge amount of stamina on it, 373 on the heroic version, as well as an amazing proc. The proc allows you to cause damage and drain that damage to you healing you for twice the damage it caused. Since the amount of damage is 1.7% of you health, the more health the better, meaning it suits tanks very well. Many tanks have about 250,000 healths in a raid meaning that this will cause roughly 4,200 damage each time it process and heal just over 8,000 health. While those numbers are fairly small it has a proc rate of roughly 15% which means it happens a lot over the course of a fight.
This sword drops from the final fight in the Dragon Soul raid from the Madness of Deathwing encounter.
The second best tanking weapon – Hand of Moorcock: Not an obvious tanking weapon, but a great one none the less.
The second best tanking weapon in the game right now is the Hand of Moorcock. This one handed axe comes from the very first boss in the Dragon Soul raid and while it doesn’t appear to be a tanking weapon at first glance, it offers a lot on it that is great for tanks.
First up it have a lot of stamina, and a lot of mastery which is a key stat for tanks this expansion cycle. It also has a socket which can be used to get more of whatever stat you need. While the crypt is horrible for tanks, it can be reformed away to something else.
Due to it being perceived mainly as a DPS weapon though, be careful about just needing on it as DPS players can get quite cranky if they think you are taking it for your off-spec. Make sure you make it clear that you are using it as a tanking weapon for the mastery it provides you.
