Your Maximum Threat Potential

Another random tip: Use SoW instead of SoR/V when AOE tanking. Applying extra threat to one mob doesn't mean much, applying threat to all mobs you're in combat with - even a small amount - is better. Plus it helps you keep Consecration going if you're tanking things for a while.

Is there any way to verify that it's affect by RF?, Like it makes sense, as it's a holy spell, and I'm pretty sure RF just does a school check to increase Threat based on that.

Don't forget removing and requiping your stamina weapon for a non-stamina one, means you aren't at max HP anymore and so can get some mana from being healed.

(This is negliable though, and sitting is probably a better plan in extreme mana starvation)

You can also remove and rebuff kings on yourself, but this won't gain you mana until high stamina values.

SoV/JoV is great for threat if you're an Alliance Paladin. Even better is JoV followed by a few swings with SoR up, followed by SoV again to refresh the stack and prepare for the next JoV.

A 10-second rotation I've found handy:

HS -> JoV/SoR -> Consecrate -> SoV

This rotation benefits from hit rating, expertise and spell hit. If you're seeing SoV stacks drop off frequently, consider stacking more, or switching back to straight JoV/SoV or JoR/SoR. If you're having no trouble getting the SoV stack back up, you can wait a bit longer before re-upping SoV.
