Warrior Gear
#1
I've been meaning to post this for a while now, and believe I have found two very nice guides for it. Warriors are, quite simply, the most gear dependant class in the game. As such, it is important that each of us knows what to look for when trying to fill a role.

For a warrior, there are really only two roles: Taking damage, and dealing damage. A warrior can fill both roles regardless of their talent spec. A protection warrior will be better for tanking, and an arms or fury warrior will be better at damage, but they can both be effective in either role if they are wearing the right equipment.

It is important to make a note about gear progression. Being level 60 does not mean you are suddenly ready to jump into MC or ZG. Raid zones are tailored to be for groups with primarily gear from the previous zones. That means that ZG and MC are balanced vs. a group in blue gear from Stratholme, scholomance, blackrock spire, Silithus, and dire maul.

These guides are comprised entirely of gear from before ZG/MC/BWL, etc. The highest they go is UBRS.

A note on valor: certain pieces are good for damage gear. Others are replaceable with better pieces, often from the same instance, if you know what to look for. One thing valor is not though, is tanking gear. Valor is not "middle of the road" gear when it comes to this.

Finally, if you want to alternate between tanking and dealing damage, you must carry multiple sets of gear. This is normal for every class, and you'll find more and more bag/bank space taken up by gear for various resistances and jobs you need to do as time goes by.

Ok, the guides:

This is a good guide to pretty much all warrior gear out there, with lots of alternatives.

This is the single best guide to tanking gear I have seen. The preferred gear is exactly what I wear or have worn prior to Zul'Gurub.

Because that second one is on the blizzard forums and prone to being lost, I will copy all of it below in th next post.
