[Druid] Icecrown gear list for cats

Finally, Wowhead has taken the cache from the armory and uploaded it. Which means I can do my gear list without having to do weird multiple parses or use Rawr for values or whatever, and you get nice, shiny mouseovers. Oh yeah, and the weight scale works too.

I've updated my weight scale as well. As always, the big word of advice: this is a static weighing that does not take into account your personal situation, your gear, or your general needs. Always use intelligence and reason before using this as gospel.

Also - know that we have no idea what Arthas drops. Chances are he's going to drop some jewelry, cloaks and weapons if he's like all the other end bosses. So this loot table is going to change.

Some changes between previous iterations and this one:

1) Haste and crit have swapped in value. This is primarily because we're getting closer to the crit cap, and as a result crit is becoming less and less valuable. This mostly factors in in gem choices; the agi/haste gem is in general more valuable than the agi/crit gem.

2) Hit and expertise both have been increased in value. This is again because of the crit cap. Why does this matter? Well, before you could have a table of attacks where every attack you replaced via hit rating/expertise rating went from a miss/dodge to a normal hit. But with being at the crit cap or close to it, you're to the point where every rating point replaces a crit instead. Because this is the case, every missed attack becomes a much bigger loss of damage than it was before. Again, this is more important as you get higher gear, but the really important thing to note is that getting hit/exp capped is very good. And as you get close to the arpen hard cap (if you choose to do that) hit/expertise becomes the most valuable stat of all.

In any case, look to cap these things or what you can do to cap them, especially if it won't hurt you otherwise. What this might mean in practice is that agi/hit gems become better than haste or crit for hybrid gems.

3) Arpen is still great, as is agi. No big change here, though arpen has been improved slightly (similar to 3.1 values) because of the ability to hit the arpen hard cap. If you choose not to do this, keep this in mind when looking at the ratings (or adjust them yourself).

A word of advice too: you desperately want to get the 4-piece T10 bonus. It's stellar. As a result of this, you should take the leather piece recommendations with a grain of salt. Certainly don't buy things like the chest or the hands from the vendor without some thought; while they might be better than anything you can get from 25-man normal, you don't want to lose your 4-piece or waste badges unnecessarily on something you can't upgrade later.

Finally - why did I do cat first? Well, mostly because I'm raiding as a cat as my primary, which means this is more relevant . me personally. I should be getting to the bear list in a couple of days.

Back:

1. Vereesa's Dexterity/Sylvanas' Cunning - from Tribute (25) chest. 38.40
2. Shadowvault's Slayer Cloak - Heroic (25) Gunship. 37.45
3. Shawl of Nerubian Silk - Heroic (10) Marrowgar . 35.60
4. Recovered Scarlet Onslaught Cape - 50 emblems of Frost. 35.23
5. Cloak of the Silver Covenant/Cloak of Serrated Blades - Tribute (10) chest. 33.82
6. Shadowvault Slayer's Cloak - normal (25) Gunship. 33.59
7. Shawl of Nerubian Silk - normal (10) Marrowgar. 32.19
8. Drape of the untamed Predator/Cloak of the untamed predator - heroic(25) Icehowl. 31.31
9. Varian's Fervor/Garrosh's Rage - Tribute (25) chest. 31.21
10. Winding Sheet - Heroic (25) Rotface . 30.77
11. Might of the Ocean Serpent - 50 Emblems of Frost. 30.24
12. Cloak of the Triumphant Combatant/Cloak of the Victorious Combatant - from Tribute(10) chest. 27.48
13. Drape of the Faceless General - 10-man General Vezax (hard). 27.46.
14. Might of the Nerub/Strength of the Nerub - heroic (25) Anub'arak. 26.96
15. Drape of the Untamed Predator/Cloak of the Untamed Predator - normal (25) Jaraxxus. 26.95
16. Drape of Icy Intent - 25-man Hodir (hard) - 26.91
17. Saronite Gargoyle Cloak - heroic (10) gunship. 26.61
    
18. Saronite Gargoyle Cloak - normal (10) gunship. 24.06
19. Accursed Crawling Cape - Devourer of Souls (normal), Forge of Souls. 23.18
20. Might of the Nerub/Strength of the Nerub - normal (25) Anub'Arak. 22.77
21. Drape of the Lithe - 25-man Ulduar (normal) - 22.63
22. Shawl of the Shattered Giant - 10-man Kologarn. 22.03
23. Drape of the Deadly Foe - 25-man Kel'Thuzad. 21.47
    

Because there's so little in the other drops (one 25-man, one 10-man agility cloak in 12 bosses?) I strongly suspect that Arthas has a cloak. This goes well with the general idea of bosses dropping loot that's most applicable to everyone and totally awesome. Still, Anub'arak holds awesome stuff - it's a great high-ilvl cloak with arpen, so it's rated highly. Because of the new rankings, the Shawl of Nerubian Silk rates quite highly as well - and it's easy to get. It plus the 264-level T10 legs caps a cat for expertise too.

It might also seem odd to see strength so high on these lists, but because of the high multipliers that cats can get to stats and how well cats can scale with AP, it's pretty decent.

Chest:

1. Sanctified Lasherweave Rainment - heroic (25)token drop (Saurfang, Putricide, Lana'thel, Sindragosa, Arthas) . 72.13
2. Ikfirus's Sack of Wonder - heroic (25) Gunship. 68.90
3. Shadow Seeker's Tunic - 95 emblems of frost. 64.90.

6. Chestguard of the Frigid Noose - heroic (10) Deathwhisper. 63.31
7. Chestguard of the Frigid Noose - normal (10) Deathwhisper. 59.19
8. Cuirass of Calamitous Fate/Vest of Calamitous Fate - Heroic (25) Jaraxxus. 57.35
9. Lasherweave Rainment - 95 emblems of Frost. 57.21.
10. Malfurion's Rainments of Triumph/Runetotem's Rainments of Triumph - Regalia of the Grand Vanquisher (heroic 25). 56.95
11. Armor of Shifting Shadows/Vest of Shifting Shadows - heroic (10) Valkyr. 55.80
12. Knightbane Carapace - BoE Leatherworking via Crusader Orbs. 54.66
13. Malfurion's Rainments of Triumph/Runetotem's Rainments of Triumph - 75 emblems of triumph + 1 trophy of the crusade. 50.72
14. Cuirass of Calamitous Fate/Vest of Calamitous Fate - normal (25) Jaraxxus. 50.11
15. Embrace of the Gladiator - 25-man Thorim (hard). 48.54
16. Choking Hauberk - Marwyn, heroic Halls of Reflection. 48.21
17. Armor of Shifting Shadows/Vest of Shifting Shadows - normal (10) Valkyr. 47.88
18. Malfurion's Rainments of Conquest/Runetotem's Rainments of Conquest - 50 emblems of triumph. 45.23
19. Winter's Icy Embrace - 25-man Hodir (easy). 45.16
    
20. Conqueror's Nightsong Rainments - 58 emblems of Conquest. 41.60

While the Sack of Wonder is fairly highly ranked, don't kill yourself trying to get it; it's a stopgap piece that will help you until you get a good T10 piece upgraded. My personal take is to gem it for tanking and DPS (so pure agi) and use it in my cat when I upgrade my head (so I maintain some expertise) and legs (so I replace the hit a bit). In other bizarre news, the heroic Chestguard of the Frigid noose apparently has one less socket than the normal version, as does the heroic version of the Sack of Wonder; I expect that to change.

Feet:

1. Frostbitten Fur Boots - Heroic (25) Marrowgar. 52.88
   
2. Taldaram's Soft Slippers - Heroic (10) Blood Princes. 48.05
3. Frostbitten Fur Boots - Normal (25) Marrowgar. 47.46
4. Footpads of Impending Death - Leatherworking (5 primordial saronite). 46.52
5. Icewalker Treads/Treads of the Icewalker - Heroic (25) Faction Champions. 46.43
6. Taldaram's Soft Slippers - Normal (10) Blood Princes. 42.92
7. Acidmaw Boots/Acidmaw Treads - Heroic (10) Beasts. 40.88
8. Icewalker Treads/Treads of the Icewalker - Normal(25) Faction Champions. 40.20
9. Acidmaw Boots/Acidmaw Treads - Normal (10) Beasts. 35.27
10. Blighted Leather Footpads - Captain's Chest, heroic Halls of Reflection. 34.78.
11. Footpads of Silence - BoE craftable from Runed Orbs. 33.88
12. Runed Ironhide Boots - 25-man Iron Council (normal). 32.83
13. Flamestalker Boots - 25-man Ignis. 30.79
    

Yawn. Another boring upgrade path for boots, with no real surprises. Well, there's one I suppose; if you don't want the expertise cloak or ring, you can get expertise from crafted boots. But that's not great; the difference between them and the heroic version of the 25-man boots (which should be one of the earlier heroic-25 man drops, coming from Marrowgar) is quite substantial.

45. The Lady's Promise - heroic captains' chest, halls of reflection. 20.18
46. Strength of the Automaton - 25-man Flame Leviathan (easy).19.61
    

Gah. So many ring choices. For that reason, I suspect that Arthas isn't going to drop another one. There are 3 different agility ring drops at the 25-man level already. I don't see there being a 4th. I hate this category just because there are so many combinations of loot and gear and strength DPS vs agility DPS that is almost, but not quite, useful. What is useful to note is that the three 25-man rings have either arpen, expertise or hit - so they can all be very good or meh depending on the rest of your gear. The ashen band is an interesting story too. Right now the proc rate appears to be absurdly low, making it suboptimal - but it still is a good ring with hit on it.

Hands:

1. Aldriana's Gloves of Secrecy - Heroic (25) Rotface. 52.85

This is the one slot where the T10 doesn't actually win, so that's my recommendation - use this for your offset enjoyment if you can. Which kinda sucks since it's one of the cheaper ones, but so it goes. And there are a lot of options for upgrades too, which is nice; you can even splurge on the Cat Burglar grips and not feel bad about it at all. Note that while the Aldriana's are an upgrade, it's not like it's a huge one; you could easily get this and instead go for your offset piece in another slot, and that's especially true if you're doing 10-man only.

Head:

1. Sanctified Lasherweave Headguard - Heroic (25) token drop (Saurfang, Putricide, Lana'thel, Sindragosa, Arthas) . 70.89

Thank the FSM that we didn't have the punishment sack or the discarded bag of entrails as the best in slot, right? I mean...yeesh. Dodged a bullet there. I don't think anyone wants the tauren gimp suit as the BiS. Though despite being a level lower, the Discarded bag is quite strong, itemization wise. This is one of the higher priorities for me to get personally, as while it will break my 2pT9 bonus, it will have arpen on the head and will be a bigger upgrade than most other things I can get.

Legs:

1. Sanctified Lasherweave Legguards - Heroic (25) token drop (Saurfang, Putricide, Lana'thel, Sindragosa, Arthas) . 73.81
2. Gangrenous Leggings - Heroic (25) Festergut. 67.48

19. Conqueror's Nightsong Legguards - 25-man Freya (easy). 41.96
    

This is one of the odd ones; the T10 is so hugely above anything else as an option it's not funny, and it's also hugely above the old gear as well. As a result, it likely should be your first choice for spending badges unless you've got serious deficiencies in other slots. There's no real reason to consider other gear unless you happen to be high in expertise; then this is devalued, but only by a bit.

Sigh. More noisy strength items that you're not likely to roll on unless you hate the strength-using people in your raid. This is a spot where I think it's likely Arthas drops something, given that there's all of one raid drop for the slot for agility in 25-man and at least two from 10. So something's missing. It's going to be hard to beat Sindragosa though - it has haste and arpen, a great combination for cats.

Shoulder:

1. Sanctified Lasherweave Shoulderpads - Heroic (25) token drop (Saurfang, Putricide, Lana'thel, Sindragosa, Arthas) . 53.09

16. Conqueror's Nightsong Shoulderpads - 25-man Yogg (easy). 33.18

Another place where the tier gear blows away the competition pretty handily, though the 10-man drop is quite good and an interesting sidegrade if you haven't got the tier piece and want arpen. Likely because it's cheap, this will be one of your earlier upgrades to T10, so chances are you won't be having anything else for long.

Trinket:

1. Deathbringer's Will - heroic (25) Saurfang. 57.4

As usual, I'm using Rawr's ratings of trinkets, and because of that it's weighing based on whether or not I'd hit the cap with arpen with said trinket. And even with that limitation, the deathbringer's will wins handily. What trinkets will be best for you is going to depend a lot on whether or not you're going for hard cap arpen or not. If not, you want one of the mjolnir/grim toll (which is surprisingly decent with that hit rating) or the scorpion + deathbringer's will/death's choice/fanged skull/herkuml war token. If yes, you want deathbringer's will and death's choice or whispering fanged skull. I also expect this to be another slot where there is loot to be discovered.

Another fairly boring upgrade path, made only slightly interesting by having an emblem purchase be somewhat competitive at the normal 25 level. If you're low on hit, consider the Lady Deathwhisper drop - but really, there's not a lot of special analysis here. Get the tribute to the creator of Rawr.

Another tribute item to the most influential theorycrafter for cats out there, and it's the best. Makes it very easy. I left off a bunch because honestly, if you don't have at least something on this list (and even if you do) you should get the Bracers of Swift Death made. The mats are fairly cheap and it's easy to get now.

This is one of those hard ones. The top-end mace is actually quite good, though not quite as good as the top-end feral staff...for cats. (for bears it's likely much higher). Do you roll on it? It gives hit, which is nice, but no arpen. I'd try and stay with the feral gear as much as you can, but it's awfully tempting to get a giant mace and have fun with it in cat and bear. Plus, all three are close enough together that it'll be a huge upgrade, DPS wise. Try in general to be nice, but don't be too nice I suppose :)

Idol:

1. Idol of the Crying Moon - 30 emblems of frost. 30?
2. Idol of Mutilation - 25 emblems of Triumph. 27.2
   
3. Idol of the Corrupter - 19 emblems of Conquest. 20.7*
   
4. Idol of Worship - 25 emblems of valor. 17.2
   
5. Idol of the Ravenous Beast - 15 emblems of heroism. 10.1

Rawr doesn't have the new idol, but it's more a bear than a cat one. At best (when you're not losing rake or moving too much) it's going to be a 10% upgrade from mutilation. Definitely not worth the emblems until you've got everything else you want.
