Making PvP power attractive for tanks

[Topork]

Currently pvp power is useless for tanks in RBGs, and 5.3 will make pvp gear even more unattractive with pve gear having more sockets to gem res into.
My idea of making PvP power useful for tanks is following:

PvP power for tanking specs increases healing received in BG and RBGs.

IT would make them immortal.

IT would make them immortal.

PvE tanking gear will make them Immortal too, with all its sockets, and avoidance stats. This will make them even.

i would say allow pvp power to increase there main migration skills. for warrior shield barrier for druids it till be frezie regeneration.
and so on for all tanks. this way pvp power will be somewhat of use. and will make sure pvp items are wanted instead of pve items.

Maybe it should increase their resistance to CC?

It will increase their healing, so obviously it will? Second Wind for warrs, Death Pact/Conversion for DKs. Paladins/Monks lots of healing.

How do you make it only activate when getting bashed on by a player?

All in all, any boost to a PvP tank's defenses due to PvP power must be met with blanket PvP tank nerfs. Basically tank survivability with the PvP power boost must be no greater than tank survivability now, without PvP power.

why would you CC tank?

Sorry i couldnt find anything that would help tanks without making them too OP.

I like this idea the most, 50% power = 50% CC duration reduction!
