Nope, your gear will be reitemised when the patch hits - a lot of set pieces and other loot have had their stats changed. Take a look at Wowhead and look up your stuff to see how it's changed.

I have a quick question on which stats to stack as a priority for prot warr's going into 3.0 and WotLK. Do these look sensible?
Assuming in both case I already have sufficient Def (5.6% crit reduction), for grinding, leveling or off tanking something like:
Strength > Block Value > Exp/Hit > Crit > EH (Stam/Armour) > Dodge/Parry
For progression tanking:
EH (Stam/Armour) > Strength > Block/Dodge/Parry > Exp > Hit

I'm looking for the address of a site that is similar to WoW Web Stats that I saw someone link on TS here a few times. The name escapes me and I've just about given up on googling related terms to find it. I do know it seemed to be developed in Asia and the language translation was rough but the amount of detail provided was stunning. Anyone got a clue?

That's just my take. Math may prove me wrong.

Does the new spell reflect (2/2) use up charges if a party member is hit by a spell? Thus taking your spelll reflect away from you when a party member gets hit by a (possibily weaker) spell? That's one of decisive factors as to whether I'll get it or not.

For AoE grinding and multi-mob tanking, what do people think is better, the Felsteel Shield Spike, or Tough Shield (+18 SBV)?

Thanks for helping out  | Hi. You can do this in the Keybinds section of the options. Hit escape and go into Keybinds, somewhere near the bottom it will have a section for the markings, you click on the red button and then press a button to set it as that hot key.
Hope this helps.

qq: raid bosses no longer crush. do trash mobs still crush?
also, to become uncrittable, is another way to do it thru resil?

yes, as long as you combined reduction to chance to be crit is 5.6% you can reduce it by combining resil and defense, just over over resil to see how much % you reduce crit% by (not crit damage, but chance TO be crit), and then do the same for Defense, and add them, >5.6%? your set.
and anything 4 levels or higher than you can crush you still.. anything within 4 levels cannot crush you, since raid bosses are considered level 73, trash is normally level 70-72, so no they can't crush you either unless you're level is below 70 or if your defense skill isn't maxed for your level.

First and foremost, thanks to Cider et. all for this incredible site and community.
I did to a search, so I apologize if this tidbit is somewhere that I missed: back in the day (I stopped raid tanking in vanilla WoW), I believe the Dual Wield Specialization talent in the Fury tree affected your Shield the same way it would have affected an OH weapon (i.e. boosted damage). Is this still the case? Am I remembering wrong?

I have a quick question...
Are the lvl 70 BoJ disappearing when WotLK releases? I'm not clear as to what's happening here and how much I need to rush to get the pieces I would like to have by the xpac release date.
Thanks

I don't think they are. They just only buy level 70 stuff, not anything new.
