Had been getting frustrated with the Naxx25 and OS25 runs as of late wondering when the heck some upgrades were going to drop for me, so I decided to check armory and shoot, it looks like I'm pretty much set.
Here's my armory link
Pants have been updated to Valorous Dreamwalker although not showing as of this post and the gem in the feet has been upgraded to 8crit/12sta.
I'm not sure were to go as far as rings go so help there would be especially appreciated and smart money says my chants will need some hefty upgrading.
Thanks in advance!

For rings, Deflection is decent for now. I'd suggest you get a JC friend/guildie to make you an Earthguard ring to replace the blue one. I got lucky and snagged Gatekeeper from last time we did Naxx 25. You can also get Keystone Great-Ring from the last boss of H DTK which is very nice too.
For enchants, off the top of my head:
Head: Rep stuff, would need to look them up but there isn't a lot of choice anyway.
Shoulders: Rep stuff too.
Cloak: 22 Agi.
Chest: +Stats rather than just Stam.
Wrists: LW gives you the best.
Hands: 20 Agi. Alternatively you could get Hit or Expertise if you need it badly.
Waist: Yep, socket.
Legs: LW gives you the best.
Feet: This is probably where you have the most leeway. Depending on what you feel you need the most, you can go for Agi, Stam, Hit/Crit or Stam/Speed. I think there's also an older version for Agi/Speed but it's from BC so it won't be as good.

Your gem choices are not the best.
You have dodge/stam gems. The Agi/Stam gems are better. 8 Agi grants more dodge than 8 DodgeRating (With Kings it takes 35.73 Agi for 1% dodge and 39.35 DodgeRating for 1% dodge). Also, if you need a yellow gem, then the Deg/Stam gem would be a better choice than the crit/stam one. Another option would be a Hit gem of some sort.
Other than that your gear is looking good :)
Very jelous of the Hood of the Exodus. I have had no luck with helms. The blue Headguard of Retaliation for tanking and the Vengeful Gladiator's Helm for DPS still!

As far as I know, the Agi/Stam gems are still not in the game, otherwise they would definitely the best choice for both Red and Blue sockets.
Due to their absence, I find myself filling those slots with Exp/Stam and Dodge/Stam gems, or simply 16 Agi in Reds.

I'd personally drop your Defender's Code and pick up Valor Medal of the First War since it has dodge on it all the time, I only use the Defenders Code while fighting Patchwerk so that I have two dodge trinkets to pop if things get hairy. I'd also pick up Signet of the Impregnable Fortress If your haveing bad luck on drops, plus the hit and expertise is really nice.

Bah! My bad. I thought I remembered these being one of the patterns that had started to drop with the last patch but my mind is faulty! :)
I plead insanity!
