Okay so I have 100 bagdes now and I'm having a really hard time deciding to get either the pre-2.4 legs, the 2.4 legs or the 2.4 chest first. View my armory for a comparison of what is hould be getting. Thanks in advance for replies.

If you're going for pve, the biggest upgrade would be the chest. Then save up and get the pants.

Ok, chest it is. Now, Which legs should I get? The 2.4 have more +healing and MP/5, but the pre-2.4 has another gem slot and spell crit.

depends on the price difference and what stats are more important to you...I personally have mana issues, so I go after mp5 and int over healing. I'm only in Kara atm, so 1399 heals are more than enough, just hate chugging so many mana pots.

Edit: ok, after looking at both, and if farming the badges isn't an issue, get the 2.4 ones...14mp5 and 114 heals is well worth the loss of a gem. Crit doesn't matter in pve anyway since it just adds to your threat.

I use this list: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=4665556793&postId=46649270774&sid=1#0

It helps a lot when I am trying to decide which pieces to go for. Identify the badge gear on the list, then compare the gear close in quality to the badge gear. If it's in a place your guild is currently progressing in go for that piece and use the badges on something else that won't get upgraded for awhile.

the mace will increase your + healing by like 90 and your stam by 20, probably the bigest healing increase for you, but means you need 50 more badges, but at that point it will probabloy be better just to farm 50 more and get the new chest and legs for a total of 200 badges ^^

Actually, the chect will give me the biggest upgrade right now. It will give me 50ish healing also, but has a socket too. And stam isn't one of my prime concerns right now. I wantz more manaz.

Go for the weapon, it will last you until your guild kills Vashj (if you get lucky on drops) or Illidan.

With the weapon, you get +89 healing, +10 int and +14 stam over what you have now.

The chest(with a Teardrop Living Ruby) gives you +57 healing, +8 int, -15stam +6mp5 and -27 spell crit compared to what you are currently wearing (and ignoring the +10 stam leatherworking patch you've got on it since I assume you would use +6 all stats on the badge one if you got it).

Either way you will end up buying both most likely, but for myself, I'll be buying the weapon first (and I'm using the same chest piece you are).

I wish the mace didn't look totally retarded though. It looks more like on off-hand item, not a main-hand weapon.

And as for the LW patch. I'm a casual player and only play weekends. Raiding from 5-whenevrthehellourguildleaderdecidestostoptheraid and dailies in the morning sometimes. So I only have about 300g in my bags right now, and 100 of that will go to pots and oil for Gruuls this weekend.

Yeah, I didn't know what it looked like until today, when a priest in the guild linked it. I agree, it's hideous. Ah well, not much you can do but hope the glow of your enchant hides it a little!
