Yeah, obviously Mercy Stroke because it actually does damage.

Progression raiding is about learning the fights and their mechanics more than anything else, and learning what cooldowns to use where to empower yourself to focus on other things.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you haven't done much progression raiding, right? Tanks have the easiest job in raids. Tankbusters happen at the same time every time and they're extremely easy to get used to popping cooldowns (and most cooldowns are off gcd so you can't mess them up) . Enmity pretty much isn't a problem. Tanks should be trying to do lots of dps from the start, because there's not much else for us to do.
