In a similar situation to my hunter (who received an epic flyer on dinging 70), I want to get epic flight form around the time I ding 70 on my druid. To do this, I understand that I will need to fight a summonable boss in Heroic Sethekk Halls. I plan on tanking him.
I have made plans for my tanking gear at 70. So far, here is what I have.
Badge of Tenacity
Braxxis' Staff of Slumber
Here is what I'm going to get:
Stylin' Purple Hat
Heavy Clefthoof set (Chest, leggings, and boots)
Gladiator's Dragonhide Spaulders
Gladiator's Dragonhide Gloves
Here is what I have that I may still use:
Necklace of the Deep (socketed with 2 +12 stam gems)
Bogstrok Scale Cloak
That leaves me belt, bracers, 2 rings, and 1 trinket, assuming I do not replace anything.
Right now I am nearly revered with Cenarion Expedition. I may shoot for the Earthwarden before doing this.
Are my choices so far good? Should I ignore the socket bonuses on the Clefthoof set and socket straight stam? I have heard a green quest reward in SMV, something like Manimal's Cinch, is a good tanking belt. Would that cut it for heroics, or should I shoot for something like the Vindicator's Dragonhide Belt?
