Tank gear: Cataclysm from 80 to 85

December 2, 2010 at 4:08 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 6 Comments

I haven’t found any good loot lists or information on faction grinds so far, so I present below my best attempt at compiling said information.  This list is, in spots, alliance-oriented.  Apologies to my horde readership.  If I’ve missed anything, please let me know.

Dungeons:

Stonecore: sword, ring, trinket

Throne of the Tides: legs, ring, trinket

Blackrock Caverns: chest, back, shoulder, shield, neck, ring

Vortex Pinnacle: axe, trinket, cloak, head, boots, gun

Grim Batol:ring, trink, shoulder, mace, cloak

Tol’vir: belt, trink, ring

Halls of Origination:neck, head, gloves, sword, ring, bracers, shield

Crafting:

Blacksmithing: for epics, waist shield and chest.  many blues.

Jewelcrafting: neck, ring

Leatherworking: back

Factions:

(note: to begin building rep via tabards, you first need to get to friendly)

Earthen Ring: legs, head enchant

Ramkahen: wrists

Wildhammer Clan: feet, head

Guardians of Hyjal: back, neck

Therazane: ring, shoulder enchant

Baradin’s Wardens: trinkets

Quests:

No idea here.  I’ll need to spend a day or two browsing wowhead, I suppose.

Justice points:

Magatha Silverton: neck, sword, belt, chest, waist, legs, head, hands, shoulder, shield (ie, everything except boots, rings, gun and trinkets)

Conclusions:

It looks like feet, belts and, to a lesser extent, gloves and legs are going to be hard to come by.  Trinkets and shields may be easier than we are accustomed to.

  1. I found another loot list, oriented towards DKs, at pwnwear.com. You can find it here: http://pwnwear.com/forum/cata-tank-gear-t819.html

  2. if you haven’t seen this yet, it’s a very good compilated list with gear that is very interesting for a prot warrior even if the list is written for a paladin.

    • Thank you Starbuck!

  3. […] already put together posts with information on the boss fights and the loot for the new instances.  Having done several instance runs at this point, I felt now would be a […]

  4. With 20/20 hindsight, I’d like to suggest spending justice points on shoulders and not on a helmet. There are several good head options available while shoulders are much trickier to pick up.

  5. I think the admin of this site is actually working hard for his web page, for the reason that
    here every information is quality based material.
