I am wearing Mantle of the Eternal Sentinel as I just hit 80 yesterday. They are a BoE drop from Heroic OS and I was able to score them from AH for just 300g. I know they lack MP5 (which I am hurting for) but was wondering why they didn't make the list. Great stuff, and thanks!

I totally agree with the item’s you listed. I’m still wearing UK H haste heavy caster ring and the Spark of Life has filled my trinket slot until I felt I could drop some more mana regen.

But if you want to check for best in slot out of heroics just follow the link to lootrank. My list is intended to help people gear up before they get to heroics and while doing their first heroic runs. I tried do leave out as many heroic rewards as possible and only did so when the non-heroic alternatives would be much much worse. I thought about doing a best out of heroics list but as I’ve seen how many people do PuG Nax I decided against it.

Boots I’m going to add. Not too expensive and a very solid choice.

I think you missed a couple of tricks here. By slot - Finger: Annhylde's Ring (Utgarde Keep Heroic). For those that like haste, this is a pretty easy one to get, and believe it or not stam is important in naxx - you WILL be taking damage. Feet: Revenant's Treads (Crafted LW). Once again, more haste and a lot of int, and they are mail for "purists". Even with the 2 slots on Treads of the Life Path, I think the Revenent's are a better choice once enchanted properly and will last you longer. Trinkets: This list could go on and on, but you forgot Spark of Life (Halls of Lightning Heroic), one of the best regen trinkets around for a shaman, espescially since it has a chance to proc PER JUMP of Chain Heal. Depending on the fight I use Spark / SP or Spark / Winged, but that spark never comes out of it's slot.

Facade Shield of Glyphs drops from heroics (just a typo)

Thx a lot for the list… saving me hours of browsing while at work (sadly )

@Ishundiya

The reason you do not see all ‘Mail’ is because this blog is geared towards people that just hit 80. These cloth and leather items just happen to be good and easy to get. I must admit, I like having 48% reduced damage with my 18k armor but when I hit 80 I did use cloth and leather Items.

@Drug

Great blog!! You helped get me into a decent guild. Cleared 10man naxx/obsidian. We’re starting a 25man as I type this (I’m in a que).

Keep up the good work
