Would it be possible to add where some of the higher end TBC gear fits in? From a quick glance for instance I can't imagine myself replacing T6 shoulders or chest till I enter Naxx. Or am I just completely losing it and missing the awesomeness of some of these blues and greens?

*Also updated 11/11 with some more plate items.

A small issue, but I see you have "Shoulderplates of Bloodshed - Naxx 10" twice, which would possibly confuse the order of power.

Good list, great job on organizing it all. One comment I have: After looking through the gear, is anyone else noticing that leather gear still seems to have better stats, for the most part? I thought Blizzard wanted us Fury warriors to get away from that? Looks like I'll be angering the rogues and ferals in my group once we get to Naxx.

Not sure if Corb took it into account, but remember that armed to the teeth will add 3AP for every 180 armor we have...so the difference between the leather and plate gear needs to be reevaluated...for example I have the badge dps leather boots, which were much better than skullshatter ZA boots pre 3.0...post 3.0, as long as you do not need the hit rating the ZA boots just got sexier.

And the badge boots were never far-and-away batter than the skullshatter. Hell they were marginally better. Now they're likely dead even.
But that's a moot point till I can establish an SEP system to get more precise rankings.

Even with Armored to the Teeth, a lot of the DPS plate is still inferior to leather or mail pieces; the stats just fall short. I have the skullshatters, and with Armored to the Teeth, they are ~15 AP better than the badge leather boots. I'm not sure of the agility to crit ratio in wrath, but if it is anywhere near what it is currently in BC, then I'm going to be running around in a lot of leather, because the stats are better.

I did not say that leather was not better in many slots, just that we had to factor in plate's armor into the equation.

Helms are updated with preliminary SEP rankings. Feel free to check my math, I'm sure I missed something.
Edit: Annnnd I did. I accounted for meta slots, but not other gem slots.
Edit 2: Fixed. Assumed +16 str gems for all non-meta slots.

Hey thanks a lot Oda! Feel free to tackle anything you want, it'll take me quite a while to do it myself.

make sure you use Wowhead: LF1M: You! as your domain now since wotlk.wowhead.com no longer properly links. I've fixed yours Oda for now.

I don't believe that number for expertise rating. Hit rating I can see being abysmally low due to rage generation allowing almost 100% HS rate on the MH, but expertise rating should be just as good as it was pre-expansion. Is there any chance you calculated SEP values with expertise rating nearly capped and clipped its effectiveness?
I just threw a bunch of random WotLK gear down in Landsoul's sheet and came up with a 1.1617 SEP value for expertise rating at 80.

It does look rather low. Maybe something's off on my SS. I'll have a look.
Yeah, I just tried it again and came up with 1.1-1.2 on most gear sets. I'll adjust the rankings when I'm done leveling >.>
