Great site

Looks like you are becoming a ret consultant.

Can you have a look at my gear and advise what order I need to improve.

I am learning here

Thanks Hasselblade

That said, certain PvP gear may be your best option, so in those cases go for it. There are some very solid options via emblem gear. All T9, as well as 245 Shoulders and helm. In addition the 245 blacksmithing chest and wrists are solid, as is the 226 blacksmithing boots and belt.

To get more emblems, I’d suggest tanking random dailies if you can. I can easily net 20-25 emblems of triumph in an hour, depending on the instances I get. That’s tha fastest way to gear up. Going as DPS works, but longer queue times make that slower.

Just my two cents 😉

Great articles. Helped me heaps so far. Most of my Epic gear has been earned through PVP as I really haven’t Raided much yet. I’m wondering on the DPS trade-off if I pick up Turalyon’s Chest and Legs vs a full set of Gladiator’s Scaled gear. With Turalyon I’m getting another 32 Strength which should equal 64 AP (right?) but I have a bonus 150 AP from the set of PVP gear. Would it be prudent to stick with the PVP set until I can swap in more than just the 2 T9 pieces? (Frost Emblems through ICC Heroic dungeons is a slow grind 🙂 )

Thanks.

I see emblem helm, shoulders, libram, and trinket (all good choices!) and you have 2 T9. Obviously, it looks like your 2 T10 pieces will be shoulders and gloves, and you have that transition set up perfecftly as well. At this point, there is not much else Emblems of Triumph are going to get you. YOu can either start saving them for off-spec gear (I got all my tanking gear immediately after I filled Ret needs), or you can start using them to exchange for epic gems. I’d say go with the off-spec gear first, because that gives you more utility. Up to you though.

The 245 blacksmithing bracers are a good upgrade for your wrists, and Tyrannical Beheader looks liek you next upgrade weapon-wise.

That’s a helluva solid start man!

Good job on the +hit too btw, you are over the cap, but that’s just because most of your gear has +hit on it, not by your choice it would seem. If you find some upgrades that have expertise and can replace some of the +hit rating, that’s a safe change, so long as the hit doesn’t dip below 8%.

i’ve spent lots of time in the last 2 weeks whilst getting from 70-80 reading your guide. its been a great help getting my geared for decent damage and allowing optimum improvements.
I’m a little stuck what next to buy with Emblems of Triumph that i am getting. ( saving up frost for the Libram of three truths.)

could you have a look at my armoury and let me know what you think?

Cheers
Nythil
