The gear wishlist [updated]

Most class-specific blogs will write a guide on how to gear for Naxx. I’m late to the game, and am already geared for said raid (I’ll write how I did get geared later), but I might as well share my immediate upgrades wishlist. The numbering is basically the priority I’m putting on replacing that piece.

1. Chest

Heroes’ Redemption Breastplate — I’m sitting on 74 emblems. 6 to go and this baby is mine. Got it.

2. Shoulders
My shoulders are currently crap: some BOE I bought off the AH because what I had before was subcrap. These would be my #1 priority if I wasn’t 6 badges from the T7 chest.

Pauldrons of the Colossus — theoretically the easiest to get, 7 shots at this a week. Also picked these up.
Abomination Shoulderblades — would prefer these over a blue, but only 1 shot a week
Heroes’ Redemption Shoulderguards — also 1 shot a week, but… T7!

3. Finger

Signet of the Impregnable Fortress — 25 emblems of valor, quickest valor epic to pick up. In the meantime I’ll keep cycling in better and better blues to replace my non-Earthguard ring.

4. Trinket
My dilemma for trinkets is that I’m currently using Seal of the Pantheon as a defense crutch. Probably ditching Seal for one the following two would be the easiest way to kick the habit a bit.

Essence of Gossamer — 111 stam… /drool. So much HP, and threat to boot. And the proc isn’t half bad.
Lavanthor’s Talisman — I miss my old Figurine of the Colossus dearly. This will make a nice replacement and a great–er, crap, a crutch–for getting block capped. On the plus side, this of the ShoR crits!

5. Feet
At the moment I’m wearing these, which despite being “epic” aren’t very excitingly itemized. All that stam is nice, but it’s a tad much. Some more def or additional avoidance would be nice, eh?

Plague-Impervious Boots — the ideal replacement, and off the first boss of a Naxx wing to boot
Greaves of Ancient Evil — a much more attainable replacement. However, I’m currently avoiding Volazsj like the plague while my druid friend is specced Resto.
Sabatons of Draconic Vigor — very easily attained… but I just can’t bring myself to replace a purp with a rep blue
