Greetings. First time poster here looking for some more advice for my Blood Death Knight Tank.
http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Area%2052&n=Saerna
This is my current setup after a month-and-a-half of playing WoW after getting back in from a 13-month break. Back when I resubbed, I has nothing but Blues on my character that I got from quests and normal dungeons. Thanks in part to the new Frozen Halls dungeons, I've been able to start climbing up the gear ladder to finally do Heroics and some Raids.
According to WTF Is My Gear Score, I currently sit at 4901 GS. According to WoW Heroes, right now it's considers ICC10, Onyxia 25 and TotCr 25 to be Optimal bordering Trivial, and JUST considered optimal for ICC 25. According to Be Imba!, it's pretty much the same except it still considers ICC 25 to be Challenging.
Right now, I'm starting to consider trying to join in some ICC 10 groups in order to keep climbing the gear ladder, because I've pretty much plateaued. No dungeons or heroics give anything I want anymore. And from what I've determined, the only Raids that can give me better equipment is Onyxia, TotCr, VoA and ICC. Onyxia and TotCr, however, are almost never done anymore, and VoA is almost never an option as the Horde on my realm can't seem to wrest control of WG from the Alliance (which is making me think of a server change...). The only thing I do plan to change is getting the Tank Cloak for 50 Frost Emblems when I get enough (I have about 39 right now) which should hopefully then put my GS up to 5K. Except for that, it seems that since everyone's really only interested in ICC, that I should start there and hope to get the equipment there.
What do you guys think? Am I ready to start jumping into ICC 10 groups and start tanking? I'm really only interested in doing the first four to start and try to get what I need there.
