As a DK tank (or other tanks for that matter), Blizzard has not given us a very good selection for available pre-raid epic trinks if you aren't a JC or Alchemist. 346 trinks still out-shine.

DK's still focus primarily on passive stamina and mitigationDR(armor) + absorption(mastery). Avoidance isn't our forte, but we still need a modest amount. (If you disagree, you don't know how a DK works)

Let's have a look:
Darkmoon Card: Earthquake = dodge is ok.. it's not stam/mit/abs/parry.. our least desirable stat, but not bad. The 'on-use' hp increase actually isn't the most terrible thing for a DK. It's not a great boost, but used in conjunction with Vampiric blood + rune tap and you'll have quite a heal. However, the 3-minute CD makes this much less desirable.

Bedrock Talisman = While armor is great, the armor budget is sub-par for 359 ilevel compared to the point value of mastery and dodge/parry (as others have noted, maintankadin ), and doesn't compete with 482 stamina or 321 mastery for a DK. At my armor value of 29546 (ilvl 352 tank), this provides me and extra 2.3 passive damage reduction. The proc, again is dodge. The trinket Impetuous Query provides a much better secondary than this dodge proc. The higher amount of parry to dodge plus the 'on-use' capability make this i333! trinket better than this 359 in question. Not to mention, Figurine - Earthen Guardian gives more dodge, for twice as long, as an 'on-use', meaning you can use it before you know you're about to take a lot of damage (i.e. Throngus's swords phase) to try to avoid it, rather than chancing that you'll be hit below 35% hp and hope the proc then avoids his next killing blow...

You may ask, "Well we're less concerned with survival at 60% hp than we are at 35% hp." Yes, sure. However, that's not a tank's only concern. Our skill and wit are in large part responsible for the survival of the entire group. Healers only have so much mana and can heal only so much at a time. When everyone else is taking damage constantly as well, the tank has a responsibility to mitigate as much damage as possible- ALL the time. If you got to <35% hp, then the healer is stressing heals on you and not the dps, whom may also be in imminent danger of death, while using your trinket beforehand may have avoided you losing so much health in the first place.

Mirror of Broken Images = This passive amount of mastery is nice. However, the 'on-use' for a DK is redundant. We have far less a need to use a second magic mitigation ability in 45-second span. Though there are times it would be useful, we want something we can use on every boss fight.

None of these have stamina; none of them have parry; none of them have a worthy amount of armor, especially since our armor just received a nerf in 4.06. Yes, armor has a little more point value now to a DK, but I'm not settling for these scraps of armor. Why do only the profession trinkets get the stamina? They also get better than average procs for the same ilvl.

Leaden Despair = This is the best pre-raid available trinket imo for a DK tank (w/out JC/Alch).
Stamina increases our healing via Death Strike, which increases our Blood Shield, along with improving these talents: Vengeance, Veteran of the Third War, Blood Presence, Vampiric Blood, Rune Tap and Death Pact.
The proc on this one is decent. At my armor amount, this provides ~6.2% damage reduction for 10s with only a 30s ICD. I believe the value of these types of procs would increase significantly if the @35% trigger were changed to @45%.

Throngus's Finger is probably a DK's other choice.
If Darkmoon Card: Earthquake becomes a 1-minute CD for PVE on or before the release of 4.1, then I would consider it.

Other tanks are itemized differently and won't be able to correlate all this info with their own gear choices.

This item ID is not obtainable by players.

It is the version of the Tol Barad tanking trinket (ally and horde) but without the rep requirements.

It is also flagged as introduced in 4.0.6 (and not in 4.0.3).

I'm not sure if there is any way to get it (maybe with a GM refund or with a faction change) but I think it was only made for testing purposes...
