Question about ramps / BF

At what level / gear / Def do I need to have to start tanking these instances? I have trolled these forum for a while now but they are more geared towards 70 type content. I hit 60 yesterday and would love to start tanking these but dont want to get my group waxed and pissed off at me because im not doing my job... If you like armory me or please give me some suggestions on what I need to have in order to tank this content...

Thanks all!

Just make sure you're wearing plate, with defense here and there, stamina and int/spell damage. lvl 60 gearing isn't very specific and as long as you start looking on tanky items, you should be fine.

As long as you're not wearing dps gear with strength, AP, and crit you should be fine in any of the high stam / def / spell damage pieces available at that level.

Thing is if you're using daggers in both hands and Sinister Strike isn't recommended then how would you build combo points?

If you can get 4-5k HP unbuffed you are good to go for both. Outland greenies will likely get care of that.

just make sure you have all lvl 58+ plate greens and you will be fine. i tryed tanking ramps on my druid ( lvl 58 ) in lvl 40 and 50 stuff and it went really bad.

As others have said: get outlands gear on the AH and via quest rewards. It will basically double your health pool -- and the mobs hit hard enough that you'll need it.

Spent the weekend tanking both Ramps and BF.. Had a great time doing it with much success..
Thanks to all for the replies and this site for all its advise.. Cant wait to start tanking SP, UB and all the instance in Zanger when I hit 64+
