Best aoe-tank, pally or DK?

[valle2000]

I have one group were main focus is using pure AOE (at least on all non-boss mobs). The group consist of two priests casting Holy novas and two mages casting Arcane explosions.

Now which tank has best capability of trying to hold aggro of those slaves:
a paladin using consecration and righteous fury OR a death knight using frost presence and death'n'decay (with additional damage dnd glyph). Which of these two will generate highest aoe-threat?

Paladin. Their TPS is retardedly high unless you have a really, really geared bear.

+ pally is easier, since you don't have to click to cast like d'n'd.

+ holy wrath on UD's with the added holy nova bonus against UD's, you'll rip them apart

Something worth noting is that the bear is the best moving AoE, their swipe allows for really large AoE chain pulls, so if you are farming mobs I would choose a bear

Yes paladin is retarded easy AoE, but that is going to change in Cataclysm.

If that is the case, will paladin still be better than a death knight after cataclysm?

Paladin + Seal of Command+ Reckoning+ Shield of the Righteous+ Judgments of the Just = AOE DPS agro battle action Jesus.

No tank will have trouble keeping aggro from just arcane explosion and holy nova tbh!!

I think you can remove the priests from the equation

Holy Nova
Causes an explosion of holy light around the caster, causing 28 to 32 Holy damage to all enemy targets within 10 yards and healing all party members within 10 yards for 52 to 60. These effects cause no threat.
