Better tanking Rune: Swordshattering or Fallen Crusader?

[Hachoo]

At 70 DKs get a new runeforging rune - Fallen Crusader. This gives the ability "has a chance to heal the DK for 3% health and increase strength by 30% for 15 seconds."

What do you guys think? Better or worse than a flat +4% chance to parry for a tanking DK? Debating which to use when I hit 70 and start Utgarde keep.

This may be a stupid question, but I wonder if it would generate healing aggro? :P

[Hachoo]

If so that would be even better

i would say that it does. anything that adds to your health or mana will add more "healing" aggro to the one who caused it. in this case, if it procs from the tank, then its the tank's aggro.

Good question. Depends on what your avoidance currently is and how much health you have. At first glance, my money goes that Fallen Crusader gives more threat, and Swordshattering has a better damage reduction/recovery factor. Then again, I have no idea what your stats look like.

Hopefully it is the same as the shams earth shield. I heard that once one of the orbs are used up the person that has the shield on gets the agro not the casting sham.
