"Next week, we'll talk about tanking in Cataclysm. Will off spec tanking be viable at all, or must one be protection to even run a 5-man?"

Now that crit immunity is granted by a Talent instead of Defense on gear? My informed guess is yes, you have to spend the five cents to get a second spec if you're a DPS Warrior who wants to tank in your free time.

Crit immunity is nice, but it's never been anything like a necessity in regular five-mans. Cataclysm may change that, but it's not the way I'd bet.

For Heroics, it is. Tanking a Heroic at-level (vs. overgeared) without Crit immunity will only work if you have a very, very good healer.
