As most people know, when the Sunwell patch came out Blizzard added a metric ton of new badge loot that is crazy good. As soon as I saw what was coming, I immediately started running all the heroics and Karas I could to stock up. After my purchases, let's take a look at my gear now, shall we?
Head: Mojo-Mender's Mask
Neck: Shattered Sun pendant of Restoration
Shoulders: Cataclysm Shoulderguards
Back: Lifegiving Cloak
Chest: Wave of Life Chestguard
Bracers: Howling Wind Bracers
Gauntlets: Worldstorm Gauntlets
Belt: Girdle of Fallen Stars
Legs: Runed Scales of Antiquity
Feet: Treads of the Life Path
Ring: Pheonix-Ring of Rebirth
Ring: Anveena's Touch
Trinket: Fel Reaver's Piston
Trinket: Redeemer's Alchemist Stone
Weapon: Gavel of Naaru Blessings
Shield: Triptych Shield of the Ancients
Totem: Totem of Living Water
Ok, so I am sitting pretty good for BT/Hyjal thanks to all the badge loot. I am over 2200 healing with plenty of mp/5. I can spam chain heal 4 all day if I chain drink super mana pots. But the side effect of all of this great badge gear is all the good gear the I would have snatched up in the past just rots. Most of my upgrades will not be until T6 or Sunwell. The only coming big upgrades for my gear will be a new cloak and a new shield. The cloak is from BT trash, and the shield will either be off Dragonhawk or Anetheron, both of which refuse to drop for me. I will also take the helm off warlord, but it is only a small upgrade, and the ring off BT trash. Things like the resto boots, legs, and chest off the first 3 Hyjal bosses all are just going to an offspec or to DE since the badge gear is just as good or better, which is a little sad. I think it is a double-edged sword, as it lets people like myself get quickly caught-up and into T6 guilds, but it also sort of makes the T5 instance gear pretty obsolete and seems to encourage skipping those instances.
