    [WotLK] Feral Tanking Questions

    Hey everyone, I've been tanking as feral for a while, and no matter how hard I look, I can't find any definitive answers on some things regarding feral druids. So, here goes:
    1. What is the Defense cap for druids? I was under the impression that it was 465, but I was told in a raid today that it was 415.
    2. What is the priority order for stats in gear? i know it should be pretty much based around strength, agility, and stam, but I've got little idea which should go first.
    3. What does expertise do for druids? Is it important?
    4. What secondary stats should I be stacking? (AP, Crit, Hit, armor pen(dodge is obvious))
    Thanks, responses will be appreciated and +Repped

    1. As long as you pick up 3/3 Survival of the fittest, you don't have to worry about defense. You would need 540 defense to be uncrittable from a raid boss if you were a warrior, paladin or death knight.

    2. Some druids like to gem for stam, some for agility. It's all preference. I personally like to stack stamina. Agility, Stamina and dodge are all important.

    3. Expertise reduces your chances to be dodged/parried. It is important because it reduces your chance to be parry-gibbed by the boss. I'm unsure of what the expertise "cap" is. I think it's 11.25%, but don't hold me to that.

    4. Don't be afraid to get a ring with defense on it. While we're already at the cap, some of them can be very useful. Hit rating, crit, AP, haste, armor penetration all help, but I wouldn't actively go looking for any of that stuff if I was tanking.
