Feral druid tanks have the highest health pool in the game. It absorbs damage and gives enough time for the healers to fully heal them. Next to blood death knights, they are the preferred off tanks. However, the damage that a feral druid can do is the highest of all Wotlk tanks, meanwhile Blood Dk can provide Hysteria.

Notes
Gems should be picked depending on the stats needed. If the socket bonus is 9+ stamina it’s worth going for +15 stamina instead of the +30 stamina. The same applies to all the enchants above, if a certain stat is needed, enchant for that stat. Professions bonus are always better than the listed enchants and gems.
