2.4 Shopping List

Well World of Raids have a list of the available badge loot and their cost now. The Tankadin-centric stuff seems to be overloaded on the Spell Hit front, and the Warrior stuff seems to have a load of Melee Hit and Expertise. Whilst these aren't terrible stats, they're fairly low down my Priorities for Ulu as an MT. After some thought, I'm gonna go into what I'm getting for Ulu:

1. Chestplate of Stocism One of the Warrior-itemised items, but it the massive amount of Defense rating means it gives me a bit more flexibility on other itemization. With a Stamina gem it'll give me equivalent stamina to Ulu's current Chestguard of the Stoic Guardian, but the BV means I can use it to replace my Panzar'Thar Breastplate as well. This will become my chest of choice for hard-hitting bosses and AoE trash I think. - 100 Badges

2. Inscribed Legplates of the Aldor The only Paladin-itemized piece that's taken my fancy tbh. The decent Spelldamage will see them replace my Justicar Legguards for my threat set, whilst the Dodge makes them more appropriate than my Unwaverring Legguards for hard-hitting bosses. - 100 Badges

3. Sunwell Badge Loot - Tank Ring I assume they're gonna fix the name before it goes live. It'll replace my Violet Signet of the Great Protector in my boss-tanking set at least. No Defense, but the new chest will take care of that. - 60 Badges

4. 2x Nether Vortex for the Belt of the Guardian I mentioned in the last post.

There you go, 290 Badges. I'll get a load of them before the patch, but I'm not too bothered, since every raid boss will drop badges next patch.
