It does. But I wouldn´t sacrifice tanking stats on tanking gear for dps gear, personally. In rhcs ofc I do use dps trinket when i see BIS warriors around to handle aggro but since he is in the stage when he wants to tank ICC with 5,5 gs I wouldnt take dps items as a suitable option. Let´s wait while the guy implements all the advices into his playstyle. There´s not much to help more...Maybe also get gloves enchant that gives 2% additional threat asap and see the difference.

Thanks for reminding me of that enchant. I had completely forgotten about it.

Not sure still relevant, but you can try my old guide http://www.truewow.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=6714

And don't gem dodge imo, gem Strength instead

I believe, being at starter gear, you should go back to the basics. People which are recommending you to use dps items, or any of other advanced things are playing with that because their gear let them do it.

There are quite nice guides on internet about starter tanking as a paladin and you should try to read them.

GL with tanking, and tell us if you feel any difference with the changes that I saw you already did after reading replies from this topic.

I write about faith because I almost lost mine, and I know what it is to be broken and in need of redemption. I write about gratitude because I am thankful - for all of it."
