Prot Pally Tank Ideas

[jsmb768ypl]

Okay so I have a few ideas for the prot pally rotation (i find it works great out of the box) But I have a few issues in ToT were I basically have to turn it off and tank because my group isn't the smartest, one of those fights being horridon.

When I tank the boss The off tank asked me to not do any aoe due to the fact that I end up picking up adds and he cant get them off me. I have no issues with this request so I don't do aoe. The 2nd part is the part were I pick up the adds, I find it easier to (on the part were 2 jump down) taunt one and throw my shield at the other, that being said right now the program uses it on cool down.

I have a few changes (not yet tested as we are done for the week) I am not sure if I have done them right If any one wouldn't mind looking at them and letting me know that would be great I did not touch the default rotation & I am only proposing this so people have other types of play styles they can swap out.

I have AoE & No AoE Take a look and let me know what you think.

Hmm....I have to admin I've got no clue about pala tank rotations....but it seems ok

But I would suggest using static tables - especially when creating new rotations ;)
Shouldn't be much editing in your rotation (only get rid of the few local variables and change .6/.2 to 0.6/0.2)

And why not creating a single rotation with nested single-target/multitarget?

{
  -- common stuff like interrupts, cd's
  {"nested", 'jps.Mulitarget', {
  ...
  }},
  {"nested", 'jps.Mulitarget', {
  ...
  }},
}

Oh...and one last thing - a rotation comment would be nice :)
Something like:

--[[[
@rotation Destruction 5.3
@class warlock
@spec destruction
@talents Vb!112101!ZbS
@author Kirk24788
@description 
This is a Raid-Rotation, which will do fine on normal mobs, even while leveling but might not be optimal for PvP.

added 2 rotations - one only for single target / off tanking and the second one is like default but without the usage of Damage Mitigation CD's + CD's applying forbearance debuff so we get more control in raid's.
