    Considered you also have the RD glyph, it's mostly just bad luck on your RNG recently.

    However, if you want to go for extra hit, there are some options. First that comes to my mind are the boots from Ignis 25.

    even though they said taunts arent on spell hit anymore.. I'm certain they are. We have tanks all the time who miss while theyre physical hit capped, and they have to go reglyph.

    I know this is obvious (most likely) but i NEED to ask to be sure since you didn't provide too much info.
    Are you positive it's Resists and not "Immune"? On bosses (like Thorim, for example, if you use two tanks for US) where there's tank swaps, it's possible you are taunting too often and the boss is going immune.
    Like i said, this is PROBABLY not the case, but just making sure.

    valor badge cloak has 32 hit on it, plus the added dodge will will rock if you are MTing.
    If you only stack stam to tank, go to the auction house and buy all the "of stamina" gear you can get your little fingers on....now lets see how well you do.

    It happens with everyone buddy.. Good thing that they're making the Glyph for RD to affect Hand of Reckoning also.

    Made by myself while I'm bored..

    On the IC initial pull it sucks. You can't use the aoe taunt if you only want 1 of the mobs. Best bet is to run in there and hit the one you want. It takes a little longer to get proper separation, but there is almost no chance of it going wrong. If you are picking up the doubletanked add in 10-man, warn the other tank if you missed and then use your other taunt. Let him immediately taunt his back.

    With Ignis, you shouldn't be relying on taunt. There's so much damage going out that just grabbing aggro isn't enough. You need to actively be gaining threat the whole time to hold aggro off the healers. Unless you are really slow on the pickup, the initial taunt won't be worth it. Opening with hammer or shield will be more threat for your gcd.

    A good rule of thumb. You shouldn't use taunt to pick up mobs. It only matches the highest threat person, so on the initial pickup it is one of your lowest threat attacks. Taunt if you manage to lose a mob or if you want to swap tanks. In 3.2 it may become a decent pickup with the higher holy damage, but I think it'll still be fairly poor compared to a proper swing.

    5% hit from gear + 8% from glyph + 3% misery/Imp FF + 1% draenei = 17%. There's no reason you missed if you had Draenei and SP/Boomkin... If you hadn't you got your answer. Just RNG...

    taunts hit cap is 17% melee hit, not spell hit.
