I have been wondering when we'll be able to break out of 4t6 and 2set. Both bonuses are amazing and scale. So was kinda thinking of when.

I say not before 79-80. I'm on 72 now, and except for my trinkets nothing in the Howling Fjord (which I finished) has been better than my S1/S3 mixed gear.

Same I replaced trinkets in HF, and got a neck piece in Borean that has both Hit and Expertise(came at a 30AP loss though).

Which trinkets you had exactly? I don't think trinkets from Fjord are better than my Shard of Contempt and Berserker's.

80 badge gear, maybe not even then.

I used to wear the Skyguard Silver Cross in one trinket slot. My other was reserved for either my PvP trinket or my riding crop, and I was using the Essence Infused Mushroom while questing.

I've replaced them with the First Mate's Pocketwatch and the Fury of the Encroaching Storm trinkets, so that I now have an on demand 'burst' rather than two fairly weak grinding items.

Moz, those trinkets are not t6 level. Not to put too sharp a point on it, but it's not a fair comparison.

I'm not seeing anything on the loot tables to lust after until 80 (well, possibly 78 for one piece) to replace my t6/swp gear, and I haven't seen anything to replace AToL or my Sliver until raiding. Might save a piece or two for questing, but for progression nada. Maybe I need to look over the loot tables again, but hey, at least I don't need to re-enchant anything for a long while. ;)

Anyone got opinions on http://www.wowhead.com/?item=38212 vs http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33831 ? The new spreadsheet doesn't have either "or" to compare, plus no custom feature.

That's a joke, right?

It is similar to how Sliver works, and I can't read minds, as fun as it could be.

I don't think it was a joke.... go with the Call. But you should seriously look up stat weights on the Elitist Jerks roguecraft thread.

And how the f*** do you not have revered Alliance reputations? Seems fishy.

I leveled pre BC, when rep gains were almost nothing compared to now. Came back, late in BC.

Same with Hunter and partially druid.


For example my 59 Horde pally has every horde city rep past revered, just from questing/leveling.

I never claimed they were ;). I was making a point; even though I'm only in a weak mix of S1 and S3-like gear I've reached 73 without replacing anything but my trinkets. That's why I think it'll take at least to 78, 79 or even 80 before any T6 gets replaced.

I leveled when the game was first released. My reps (besides Silvermoon, but who gives a **** about the Blood Elves?) are all Revered.

Either you did a lot of grinding, or I unknowingly turned in a lot of runecloth.

My Priest

Recruit a friend + grant levels = little to no rep. Which sucks because now I have to go back and get all that rep up. Runecloth isn't cheap...

Anyways only in wolk I hit 1k quests mark, it is track able via achievement now. Even in BC I didn't do that much questing, I simply got bored after I got hunter to 70 and leveled mostly doing BC instances.

Except that he's right, and you're a moron.

Theo is right, I am right. And it was more of a generalisation than an assumption.

Back on the original post...

I'm level 78, and haven't replaced a T6 item yet. I've replaced my chestpiece (blue level 78 quest reward to replace Supremus chest), both rings (both blue level 78 quests to replace Deceitful Intent and Angelista's Revenge), my offhand dagger (level 78 rep reward to replace Fang of Vashj) and my cloak (level 77 quest reward to replace Drape of the Dark Reavers). The blue quest rewards are starting to come close to my T6 level epics, but I don't expect to replace them until heroics, badge items or craftable epics.
