There's your 5 points for reckoning right there. Having said that, why 5/5 Devo Aura? It's pretty unlikely you'll ever be running it right? You should be having Retribution Aura running if you're tanking.

I've seen this elsewhere, and I'm a bit baffled. Is retribution aura really that much worth it over devotion aura when you're talking karazhan and heroic tanking? I realize that as you get in gear progression armor value becomes less and less valuable per point, but early on that +1000 armor value has to be at least worth 1.5% damage mitigation, and that sounds like it's worth more than the threat generated from retribution.
Or as
this article points out, while you get diminishing returns from armor mitigation in terms of damage prevented, you don't get diminishing returns in terms of your life expectancy as armor increases. I would think that until you're AC capped, more armor is always better.
