Tank gear: Cataclysm from 80 to 85
December 2, 2010 at 4:08 pm | Posted in Uncategorized | 5 CommentsI 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.

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

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.

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.
