I only started tanking when dual spec came out. I was level 80 and had zero tanking gear so had to create(BS), buy and equip the basic epic starter tanking kit. My gear is pretty good now.
I actually have grown to enjoy tanking and found that finding groups to run with is much easier as a tank (obviously). I was nervous about tanking raids but got so tired of wiping that I decided to jump in and get it done.
My rotation START is identicle to Calintara: charge, thunderclap, back up slightly to get the mob in a nice tight half circle in front of you, shockwave. (with this start you can probably do just about any rotation you want afterwards).
The charge gives you seperation from your group for enough time to build aggro without having to beg dps to wait a few seconds.
Then the difference from Calintara's rotation and mine is that then I spam devistate to 5, TAB, spam devistate to 5, TAB, etc. Throw in thunderclap when ever it is cooled down. If a single Mob pulls off, mouse select him, taunt and back to group or challenge shout then back to group.
Now I enjoy pulling multiple mobs or even whole rooms if i can. I dont know why but I enjoy having a huge half circle of dead in front of me and the more the better.
On bosses i follow the same start, spam devistate to 5 and then use the full rotation of specials until devistate is almost expired, devistate to refresh and back to full rotation.
With mobs and spaming devistate my dps is around 1100 but mobs go down faster.
With bosses and a full rotation after devistate my dps is around 1500.
