As far as TPS goes, I get the feeling both of you are talking very much out of your ass considering your gear.

HM Jara. I was on the boss from start to finish, two piece t9, Justicebringer, heart strike heavy rotation and I pulled 6,664 over 6 minutes 22 seconds.

There is no reason for threat to spike to 12k during bloodlust. All it does is increase your haste (white / rune strike frequency) by 30%. That does not account for a supposed 5k spike in threat for 40 seconds. You are getting misdirections from your rogues and hunters. I generally open with 15k threat per second on bosses but that does not mean that is what I personally am doing.

As a tank you will always be dependent on rune strike. Feel free to glace at what I linked earlier, rune strike is 27% of my threat on Jarax, who is not a fast hitting boss. There is no way to 'remove dependence' on that, regardless of if you approve or not.
