Netherspite and Warlock Gear

[Cloudjumper]

Just wanted to know what gear I need to be looking for to get ready for the Netherspite fight in Karazhan?

Generally Netherspite is more of a coordination check than a gear check. Even mail-wearers are able to tank him using the red beam, so any druid or plate wearing tank will have no problem.

For warlocks, any gear that is at least rare quality should suffice for "tanking" the blue beam for an entire phase. A warlock simply has to drain life and stay out of the void zones that open up under his feet. Because the stacking buff from the blue beam increases damage dealt, drain life will keep up with whatever damage is being done by the shadow aura, even late in the phase.
