Just a very rough post to show that the gear is indeed out there to achieve 540 defense pre-Naxx.


1 Def skill @80 = 4.918498039 Def rating

Rating required for 540 Def (140 skill) = 689



77 Ley-Guardian's Legguards

76 Breastplate of the Solemn Council

71 Daunting Handguards

65 Seal of the Pantheon

61 Ground Tremor Helm

58 Sabatons of Draconic Vigor

So it's been a month since I posted a comparison of armor values between the plate-wearing classes. Level 80 entry level raid gear is now on the database sites, so it's time for one more armor comparison post, this time with actual level 80 values.
