Here's the armory link:

Here's the WWS in question, linked to our best try:
Wow Web Stats
beimba claims he has 16 defense too much, but he claims that it's still better. Is that the case?
Looking ahead, I assume he should he be chugging ironshield pots in p5? |
First off, Kael is still in mostly kara and t5 gear, why are you insisting he tanks Illidan? With his low armor and dodge, he would most likely be taking up to 14k mainhand hits during the p5 enrages which will be hard to live through. But it has been done before so my suggestions would be:
Currently he is using two stam trinkets, the abyssal ring and is ~4.5% shearable unbuffed(97.27%, need 101.8%).
I would swap his cloak for
[Slikk's Cloak of Placation] increasing both his avoidance and armor.
Swap the Abyssal ring for either the
[Ring of Sundered Souls] or
[Ring of the Stalwart Protector] increasing avoidance and armor if using the badge ring.
Swap out a stam trinket for an avoidance trinket for use during enrages, preferably the pocketwatch as it should be off cd before his next enrage.
Get him some T6!, especially the gloves as they offer a lot of avoidance.
I would also suggest not using CoR when learning any fights or using an undergeared tank and make sure the warrior keeps up DS and TC.
