I'm geared fairly well(but it could always use improvement) and am gemmed nicely. Any advice?

Bold Dragon's Eye again is a JC only gem and it would be an excellent choice for threat. Yes, if you are a JC, then Solid Dragon’s Eye, would be a great option.

The 12 stamina/8 expertise gem is great for accomodating both EH and TPS, sure. But I personally see expertise more than anything as a way of reducing damage spikes due to its impact on a mob's chance to parry. That alone places it higher than any other gem, at least until reaching 6% where dodge is capped and you're only reducing parry.
