We got an INTERRUPT! (*cha cha cha)

Oh, we got it, cha, cha, cha
Everybody Interrupt, cha, cha, cha
Living like a real tank, cha, cha, cha
Main-tank-adin, cha, cha, cha

We did add the interrupt to Hammer of Justice. This was done solely so that Protection paladins wouldn't feel like they couldn't tank mobs that needed to be interrupted but were stun immune. We just think that interrupt capability crosses over the line into something that a tank needs to do his job.

That would bring more diversity to tanking specs now that imp HoJ is for more than just trash. Very Happy

30 sec CD vs warriors what 10 sec?

and most caster mobs will be stunned from HoJ anyways, so why the need to link spell interupt to that?

were a tank, the people who earth shock/kick/pummel/silencing shot/counterspell/spell lock arent usually tanks, the only comparable spell is shield bash, besides, how many times will you fight a stun immune boss (meaning raid) without ANY interrupters

Can you elaborate on this? Is this our new 11point talent?

I think I am totally missing the point here but does it work like this?

I'm tanking a caster Naga, she starts to cast frostbolt, I cast Hammer of Justice and the Naga is stunned for 6secs. The Naga has been interrupted.

I'm tanking a caster Naga, she starts to cast frostbolt. I cast Hammer of Justice and it resists but the Naga's frostbolt got interrupted and Hammer is back on its 1 minute untalented CD?

personally, i just wish SotR was anti-spellcast. i'll admit that would be OP tho.
