    Prot spec for pvp/5man tanking

    I use my prot spec for 5mans and pvp mostly.

    Im trying to decide between the 9% melee haste of Judgments of the Pure or the 15% crit chance on CS, HotR, and WoG from Rule of Law. I'm not specc'd for WoG, so the healing on that isnt so great anyway. I'm really looking for what will be the most dmg.

    What do you guys think is better, or what do you know is better?

    If there's one thing I'm not, it's in control.

    The boost to CS most likely outweighs the 9% haste, or at least provides the most burst.

    Take a look on my prot spec, it's used for both tanking and pvp.

    You don't really need seals of the pure, since prot's seal damage is laughable anyway, same with autoattack and reckoning.
    Includes every important self-survival talent, and both reduced stun cooldown and pursuit of justice for pvp.
    It's fine to tank raids with as well, you just need to switch some glyphs here and there as you need them.
    (remove focused shield for 5mans for example, add glyph of seal of truth)

    Forget the haste, you're going to want Crusade anyway on your way down to Pursuit of Justice and Rule of Law.

    I would recommend re-thinking your stance on the WoG talents, they add a lot of survivability. Yes you may be looking for the most damage but you'll do more damage if you're alive in PvP and for 5-mans it's handy to have those talents as healers have a hard time these days.

    Reckoning is our 3rd best threat talent and the uptime scales with our most stacked stat (Mastery).

    Divine Guardian is a very valuable raid cooldown and handy for a lot of 5-mans too, which you can't pick up with that spec as you've specced in to Imp HoJ for PvP.
