Gear Upgrades

Okay so Im wearing fairly standard pre-kara gear, all blues with the odd purple.

My current gear is pre-karazahn blues and a couple of purples with a couple of slightly better items marked as starred which I cannot replace from 10-mans or heroics. I will replace these starred items much later and can basically forget about the slots. I currently have the healing ring for karazahn reputation so that isnt an option in this list but I would highly recommend that you pick it up if you can get it.

This is the gear that I currently own, fully gemmed and enchanted:

Helm of the Claw
Necklace of the Deep

Gladiator's Dragonhide Spaulders*
Bogstrok Scale Cloak
Heavy Clefthoof Vest*
Umberhowl's Collar
Verdant Gloves

Tree-Mender's Belt

Heavy Clefthoof Leggings*
Heavy Clefthoof Boots

Ring of Unyielding Force*
Mok'Nathal Clan Ring

Runed Fungalcap

Violet Badge
Braxxis' Staff of Slumber

Idol of the Wild


HP: 13344
Armor: 24488
Dodge: 27.29%
Defence/Resilience: 397/65
(This is completely unbuffed)

The gear below is my current shopping list, with a couple of options for each slot where I can see them available. These are items I can gain from heroics or 10 mans (kara basically, cause ZA dont drop crap, sorted by slot and only gear that is better than my current stuff.) Also cheap badge items only at the moment, maybe will add more of the more expensive items later but I hope that I can get to later content before they become an option, we shall see. A blank space means that there isnt a current upgrade from what Im wearing before 25 mans. PVP gear will also almost always be an upgrade and therefore hasnt been listed.
