Leveling a Protection Warrior to 80

Matthew Rossi has a post,The Care and Feeding of Warriors: Heavy, that describes a protection leveling build. He claims that Protection is currently the best leveling tree for warriors. Stats priority for this build is: strength/SBV, crit, hit/expertise – I’m going to have to play around to figure out the weightings. I should have no problem tanking – if anything I’ve been a little light on rage when doing instances. I am definitely going to have to give this build a shot.

EDIT: Rotation is Shield block –> shield slam –> shield bash –> revenge/HS –> shield slam.
