Protection
At level 80, a player will need a total of 540 defense skill to be uncrittable by raid bosses. This is equivalent to 689 defense rating.
Retribution
Quoting from Redscape's Retribution DPS Calculator:
SoB/SoM are the best seals. If you cannot risk the damage SoC is in second place even without a Glyph, though if you find 5 points for SotP then SoR becomes pretty reasonable.
The best Glyph setup is CS, Judgement, Consecration. When you are running SoB in a raid situation you should have so much mana you don't know what to do with it all.
When using SoB your DPS return on 100 of each stat is as follows:
Weapon DPS 528.10
Str 168.09
Hit rating 126.59
Exp rating 79.55
Crit rating 73.56
Agil 69.60
AP 66.36
Haste rating 41.78
Armor Penetration 37.34
SP 21.95
At level 80, the hit cap for 2-handed weapons is 296 hit rating.

Rotations, Methods, Tips and Tricks
Elitist Jerks suggests that 1/2 Improved Judgement (versus 2/2) is actually a DPS improvement due to fewer cooldown conflicts. This will likely change if you have 4pT7.
Attack Priorities
Single Target: Judge > (Hammer of Wrath) > Divine Storm* > Crusader Strike > (Exorcism) > Consecrate for single targets
(*must have 2pieces of Tier 7 and the libram from Grizzly Hills)
Multitarget (3+): Divine Storm > Consecrate > Judge > Hammer of Wrath (try to target mobs below 20% then switch back) > Crusader Strike > Exorcism
