I can't think of any reason we would evaluate gear differently from warriors. So you might want to take a look at this excellent thread on Tankspot:

Don't we already have threads like this aswell? But I agree with you. Now when we share gear with two other tanks, we don't need our "Tankadin 101 gearing list".

That is perfect thank you for the link.
One thing I noticed is that Tempered Saronite's advantage over current gear is the metric tons of defense rating. Even the Titansteel epic craftables have less (they trade some for about double the stamina). I expect the EH gains make it worthwhile, though.

Yeah, it looks like the tempered saronite stuff is really low on stam to pay for all that def.
The two Daunting pieces look even more def-tastic, with a little more ilvl to keep the stam up:

It's very nice of them to provide a whole range of craftables for different slots to shore up any gaps people may have due to bad luck on drops.
