Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
When I started planning out my gear sets for the upcoming tier, my spreadsheet grew a bit of a mind of its own and I thought some other people might get some use out of it.
Since it was initially for personal use, this spreadsheet only includes 5.2 raid quality loot (no Sunreaver rep loot). It also doesn't include any pieces with Crit. It does include 2H weapons for the benefit of any DK tanks.
Currently all stats reflect the normal mode quality drops, though I do note whether or not Heroic versions of the gear exist (both in databases and logically--for example, no heroic trash loot is included because it is rarely, if ever, obtainable). I may decide to create a separate, heroic-level-only loot spreadsheet later, but for now this covers most of my needs. Hopefully you guys will find it useful as well.

Change Log:
18.3.13 - Removed Tidal Force Treads (changed to Crit/Haste at some point); added Moonjade Necklace to Twin Consorts loot table; added Doomed Crown of Lei-Shen to Lei Shen toot table
13.3.13 - 2nd page added; drops sorted by drop location
1.3.13 - Added missing crafted pieces
28.2.13 - Updated with Oondasta drops
26.2.13 - Spreadsheet created; drops sorted by slot

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
So looking at that, the Tier Chest is probably the piece for the non-set/ret set replacement (especially as the tier has 3 sockets and the other non-set only have two).
What do you think about this setup?

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
That's what I was thinking, yeah. The ret chest is particularly nice, too, which doesn't hurt.

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
Edited in a quick gear collection.
Level 522
Required level 417
Stamina 29,287
Strength 13,902
Mastery rating 3469
Armor 54,823
Dodge rating 1142
Parry rating 1167
Expertise rating 5123
Haste rating 9771
Hit rating 2518
Gem Slots: 1M, 6R, 5Y, 3B, 3P (18 total)
All unbuffed and disregarding talents of course.
Using stam/exp, stam/haste gems. A more stamina focussed approach would, of course, give more stamina. Don't have time to go over reforging to get more stamina in the gem slots, could maybe eliminate the hybrids in red sockets altogether, so ~1500 stamina more than now altogether.

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
Very nice, thanks. I hadn't gotten around to my spreadsheet yet and this will save me a ton of time. Appreciate you sharing.

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
I think you might have missed the craftable boots:
http://ptr.wowhead.com/spell=137768
mastery, haste, 2R+120 mastery.
also the craftable helmet:

mastery, haste, 1P+1R+180mastery

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
Good catch, I did miss those. I even had the crafted tank helm on the list, and I'd assumed other crafted stuff existed, but somewhere between my brain and the spreadsheet I lost that thought, I guess. Well, they're added now. Thanks a lot!
I also added http://ptr.wowhead.com/item=94267, crafted Hit/Mastery boots--presumably the crafted "tank" piece.
If you notice that I'm missing anything else, please let me know so I can keep it as accurate as possible so people can prepare for the new tier.
I should also add that based on experience during raid testing, Thunderforged versions of trash-drop loot do exist and are obtainable.

This is what I came up with to maximize haste. The only really bad item is the Cloak with Crit on it, but it has a socket.

maybe add exp trinket instead of soul barrier and reforge some extra haste?

Want to be able to swap out trinkets for anything else.

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
Wowhead says that the amulet and the boots are zone drops. Isn't it risky to assume that you will get both items if this information is correct?
If im saying weird things correct me PLEASE. I`m from Germany and don`t know it better.^^

Keep in mind that there's an Expertise DPS and an Expertise Tanking trinket. If you have both, you can swap between them as required.

Updated to correct a few minor errors, including some pieces that changed since PTR, some more concrete drop locations, and even a piece I somehow missed from Lei Shen.

Re: Tier 15 Plate Tank Gear List
It's on the list of things to be done; real life kicked me in the face this week and I've had little time for anything. I do plan to do a full heroic-only drop list that includes Ra Den, though, and will update this thread when it's done.
