A couple of quick notes:- There are no good shoulders in the instances or professions. Spend your Justice Points on a set of shoulders first. By the time you reach 85 you've probably earned enough to get the shoulders. If not, build up JPs while farming instances for other peices.
- Zora's Ward is a nice shield, but I had enough JPs left from Lich King that I just bought the Shield of Mists (only 950 JPs).
- As was the case in LK, profession made gear is pretty close to best-in-slot. You won't get better on some pieces until you start spending Valor points. However, the mats are really expensive right now, so you'll have to fill in with some instance gear until you can afford them.
