I disagree with many rankings on this list. I hope people pick up Rating Buster and figure things out on their own.

Weighted Throwing Axe

I didn't see Weighted Throwing Axe on the list of ranged, but it's the best I have been able to get my hands on.

Very nice Guide!
But two things.
1. You made a false Itemlink at the "Special Issue Legplates" to the Caster's one.

2. Weighted Throwing Axe - Item - World of Warcraft
Nice starting Range Weapon from a Quest

I'm going to add Ulduar items to the list as they come to my attention, and I'm also going to remove most of the TBC items to make the list shorter.

Only tanking gear I've seen yet is the crafted belt, but it looks good so far

it looks better than the current gear but will probably be much worse than the actual drops

these appear to be the "welfare boe epics" that guilds with the instance on farm to people who dont have guilds or simply cannot get that 1 specific item to drop

except for the extra socket is the crafted one that much better than ablative ?

Belts aren't the slot with the largest item budget, so I'd say the upgrade is very good (relatively at least). You're right that we'll probably see better actual boss drops. It appears to be item level 226 (judging from the armor value) so my best guess is that it's a 25-man Ulduar recipe.

Hey great guide.

It would be good if you updated the enchanting options - there are quite a number of upgrades all the way through now.

also interested on your thoughts re Block Value. It does not seem to rate that high in your calculations - but other guides are saying stack BV because it carries no diminishing returns.

Broken Promise

Might want to add an asterisk that warrior tanks will probably want to pass on this one since Heroic Strike does not scale to weapon speed . Thus you will perform fewer HS's than you would w/ a faster weapon.

Here is the supporting post: Tanking Topics #1: Heroic Strike

I'm extremely blind or Shadow of the Ghoul - Item - World of Warcraft is missing. It's probably better than Cloak of Armed Strife maybe even Nerubhide not sure though.

I just wanted to chime in on this, helping me plan 75 Warr next hits

That said, I see you updated recently but enchants aren't up to date.
Any plans? Thanks for the great guide!

The enchants are outdated, the chest for example is +22 def rating, not 16.
and theres also the shoulder resilience/ap enchant you can buy with 30 stone keepers for the ones on tight budget.
