Gear doesnt matter. You must be doing something wrong. There is no way even geared dps can take mobs of you over 500% dps as threat with vengeance and two taunts.
You probably are one of those blood Dks that use every single skill in the book beside the ones that they should be using. It should be enough in normals, but wont do good in heroics.
1. Spec for Rolling Blood and remove Pestilence of your shortcut bars.
2.

never be using on enemy targets:
Death coil, Necrotic Strike. Chains of ice.Skills you shouldnt be spamming, only use from time to time when needed:
Icy touch, Plague strikeCalm down Zakkhar, there's no need to get so offensive on this. We both know that that first bit of your statement is nonsense as well. DPS from Tanks needs some time to build up as Vengeance grows. DPS are usually more burst oriented.
For example, I've got a Pally capped on LFR gear and I have no problem reaching 150k DPS average on an entire dungeon without cooldowns. If I use some cooldowns I can burst to 400k easily. Even if the other 2 DPS are freshly dinged 90s, the trash in a Heroic Dungeon will just not last long enough to give the tank any hopes of building up enough Vengeance to overpower my DPS. The same goes for bosses really, they just die too quickly and don't really deliver enough damage to get that Vengeance going.
I'm not saying bettisydg isn't doing anything wrong, but they have been tanking for a while it seems, so it's likely they actually do know what they're doing. DPS doing more than 500% of a freshly dinged tank is not that unlikely at all
