Hey guys, what tip can you give me regarding my Paladin:

Lashab @ The Underbog - Game - World of Warcraft

Now what I had previously was Heroic tanking sword, which had

One-Hand Sword
745 - 1385 Damage Speed 2.60
(409.6 damage per second)
+129 Strength
+194 Stamina
Item Level 346
Equip: Increases your parry rating by 86 (0.49% @ L85).
Equip: Increases your mastery rating by 86 (0.48 @ L85).

And now I got:

Amani Scepter of Rites
Binds when picked up
Main Hand Mace
244 - 455 Damage Speed 1.60
(218.6 damage per second)
+207 Stamina
+138 Intellect
+92 Spirit
Durability 105 / 105
Requires Level 85
Item Level 353
Equip: Increases spell power by 1848.
Equip: Increases your mastery rating by 92 (0.51 @ L85).

I reforged spirit to mastery, so I have +36 parry.

1) Now, I don't need weapon with good malee dps, I do holy damage anyway.
2) This caster weapon has more mastery.
3) It has 50 less parry, with is not even 0.5% chance to parry.
4) 1k more spell power is like 1/3 more threat without calculating thoroughly.
5) Strength is negligible here, because we get 60% spell power from it, which is like 100 sp from the tanking sword only.

What do you think? What can you advice me regarding my character in whole?

THank you in advance.
