Hey, guys! I've played a paladin since BC and I have really never seen any love for Reckoning. I love the talent, but every build I see leaves reckoning out. I don't quite understand all the game mechanics, but I do think I understand that when bosses parry your attacks it resets their swing timer and Reckoning makes you swing more thus increasing the chance the boss parries your attack. I also thought I had read somewhere that this would not be the case in Cata.
All that being said (assuming I am understanding it correctly) why is this talent even still in the game? Is it strictly a leveling talent? Does it make me a completely terribad tank to take the talent? Thanks in advance for your insights.
