Very nice post, I will be trying to pull some of this stuff, I recently hit 80, and my main goal is trying to get better geared. I’m not big into PvP, but heroics is where I find my calling. It took me 7 runs thru heroic:Nexus for my “War Mace of Unrequited Love” to drop, but I finally got it last night. I got a few other epics on me “the handbook of obsure remedies” is a wonderful addition to my set. My static group is just having a little trouble downing the final boss in Heroic:HoL. But we’ll get him soon enough…again, thanks for the great post!!!! /cheers

You might want to review the Argent Tournament gear as well – there’s some pretty good stuff there (especially the dagger), and you can start grinding rep at level 77.

I wrote my guide pre-3.1, but its still relevant. You might want to compare the two –

The main difference is I avoid gear that relies on farming instances for random BoP boss drops. The War Mace of Unrequited Love was particularly troublesome for me. It took forever to drop – then Kel’Thuzad’s mace dropped for me a week later .

very nice discussion, Beruthiel! Don’t blame you for sticking to leather items here. There are plenty of very solid leather options for gearing up.

Hey Awlbiste!

Two reasons. One, while I’m not opposed to wearing cloth, my personal preference is to wear leather when there is a solid leather alternative. Two, as you can see the list with just leather is sprawling already! I didn’t want to overwhelm those looking for advice. If I have a minute, I may go back and add a few cloth pieces, but at this level of gear most of the leather peices are fairly comprable to their cloth counterparts

Thanks for stopping by!

Any reason you left out cloth? There are a pretty good number of cloth items as good or better than their leather counterparts. Just curious, and glad to see another druid blog out there!
