Some gear choices.

[Volador]

First, here's my armory: The World of Warcraft Armory


In addition to the gear listed I have: Royal Crest of Lordaeron - Item - World of Warcraft , Titansteel Shield Wall - Item - World of Warcraft , and Bolstered Legplates - Item - World of Warcraft

The other two shields have +20 Def enchants, the Heroes' Dreadnaught Legguards - Item - World of Warcraft are not gemmed/enchanted atm due to receiving them last night. The http://www.wowhead.com/?item=43500 are gemmed and enchanted (gemmed with Solid Sky Sapphire - Item - World of Warcraft , and enchanted with the Frosthide Leg Armor - Item - World of Warcraft ).

The couple of questions I have are: I am sitting a day or 2 away from set gloves (from badges), should I grab them up AND keep the set legs (enchant/gem them) for the 4 piece set bonus? Which shield? etc.

It all seems to add up pretty close of each other, no matter how I swing it. The main difference I can see is the set bonus for 4 pieces.

BTW: I know my bracers suck, can't get the drop from Naxx or heroic OK. :-|

I'm sure you know you should replace your bracers. Every tank in my guild has Minion Bracers, (trash drop from Naxx) at least, with the exception of 1 DK who has the Bracers from H AN. Trinkets look good, you def need to lose the Blue ring, which should be pretty easy if you're running naxx frequently as every other boss has a chance to drop a ring. My personal fav is the sand worn band. You def need to get to 540 defense if you're going to be tanking raids, so maybe throw a 12/16 def gem, or switch to a shield with a bit higher defense. Hope for the upgrade to the seal of pantheon drop from naxx...think its called repelling charge? I don't remember, I have it on my pally. But I still use the essence of gossamer. 111 stam is too much to leave behind.
