Default Tank AA Setup - Need Advice

Here is what I have and wondering if anyone has constructive criticism for this setup. It's focused on raid tanking.

Thanks

Your tank spec is solid.

If aoe aggro is needed, you can get dragon fire aa in EoF tree. It's handy for tanking heroic instances.

You can also consider dropping 1 point in heal aa in TSO monk tree and spend it on focused followup for extra dps. The 1 point spent on focused followup is decent. I have it with 1 point on my both dps and tank aa.

Since when did we start running uncontested avoid through the avoid checks jackass? Are you making up new rules now? Uncontested avoid has ALWAYS been the total added up.

Looks pretty good do you have your TSO 4 piece? In which case
you only need 2 points in heal to max the recast with ambidexterity.

And how about Rescue the recast should be at about 4 min 30 sec
with ambidexterity do you need all 5 points in the TSO tree to get
rescue to 2 min 30 sec which is its cap? Could be a few points you
can apply else where if you have over capped those skills.

I still firmly believe that the right most line in monk aa tree is a waste. Reducing the power and increasing hit chance gives you next to nothing. Power usage for each CA is minimal as it is and when I look at my logs my CA miss very very rarely even in tank mode.

Move those into the taunts to increase the reuse and resist for the group one. I notice that one resists a lot so any help there to keep group aggro helps.

The rest looks pretty good to me with the input already given of course.
