Is Mastery a more favored stat then Stam. I use to run a high Stam with Mastery in support, but recently moved everything to Mastery. I converted most of my Gems over to pure Mastery more like a Pally build with lower HP... a little freaky sitting with lower HP but It seams like I hit a point where I cans start stacking a bubble during a boss fight, and I'm more stable. but I noticed most high-end DK tanks are still stacking Stam with an emphasis on Mastery.
my build: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/S ... met/simple

Stam build: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/i ... ros/simple

Once I got over 24 Mastery rating it seems like I broke through a threshold. I understand there is a balance, and if I pushed too hard into mastery and lost too much Stam My Blood Shield would diminish in Strength. Is there any support for this build or am I diminishing my survivability, and I certainly don't seem to have any threat issues.

P.S. Why use Stoneskin Gargoyle when it applies before diminishing returns on Armor vs. Swordshattering witch applies after?
Wouldn't having extra Avoidance support Blood Shields duration and stacking?

Well... most of my question might have answered itself, as soon as I used the Riggnaros as an example of Stam stacking she switches to mastery stacking. Still looking for an equation for a sweet spot proportion of Stam & mastery. I believe for it is around 25 mastery rating. I don't know about the weapon enchant either but i notice that I feel a little less spiky in my dmg taken.
