5/56/11 + Tier 8 set bonus?

Hello!
I was wondering if anyone know if "Seals of the Pure" in the Holy three stacks with the (2) set bonus of Tier 8.
If so i was thinking i might just go for high damage on my Seal of Vengence instead of 5% more critt. Any suggestions? =)

Could you actually post the build you're considering (for one thing, your build has one too many talent points)? Regarding your question: T8 does with SotP (I don't remember whether it's additive or multiplicative offhand though). However, in many builds you're not giving up 5% crit for 15% seal damage (though as it stand live, Conviction wins out even on this comparison), but 3/3 crusade + 2 points of Conviction for 5/5 Seals of the Pure, and in that tradeoff Conviction + Crusade comes out clearly ahead.

Currently SotP is not affecting the SoV 5-stack hit on the PTR....if that's intended then SotP will continue to be worse than Conviction in 3.2.

Well, Putting a point in Divinity over filling out Imp Dev Aura is clearly an error: you're giving up extra armor and +2% healing for the entire raid (including you) for +1% healing on you only.

Based on current numbers, 5/5 conviction beats out 5/5 SotP for threat both now and in 3.2, so you should move those points as well resulting in the following:

From there, it's at least worth considering moving 2 points from Conviction to Pursuit of Justice. Most Tankadins also consider 1/2 SA to be adequate for our mana needs, giving you another talent point to play around with if you choose.

Moving this to the Talent specs forum for more input.

Uhm... why you dont get Guarded by the Light? You are losing 6% spell damage reduction and at the moment you can't keep Divine Plea always up, so you are losing mana and damage reduction (with glyph).
Same goes to Judgement of the Just, 20% melee attack speed reduced.
Improved Devotion aura -> More armor, less physical damage taken and 2% healing increased with your aura i think it worth.

Sorry for my bad english, by the way if you are feeling good with this build... go ahead. 8)

I have to think this is far from a good tank build unless you're just OT'ing?

I dunno, it just feels so...bad and I don't mean that in an insulting fashion. Its just, it has
so many thought patterns that deviate from making a tank.

PVP build maybe sorta?

Oops, I completely skimmed over the lack the JotJ and GbtL....both are must-haves for any seriosus taning build. Skip Reckoning to get them, it's not a great talent at all for us.
