Neirai the Forgiven
Christian Guilds List Manager
This is a short list of Warrior gear that is high in stamina and defense, as requested by SamIam. It is not the definitive list of tank gear for Warriors... I don't play a warrior, so it may be wrong in several areas.
This list is broken up into 3 sections: Easy Loot, which should be attainable with minimal difficulty and even with PuGs; Hard Loot, which will take some doing in order to get, whether through PvPing, hours of grinding, or by attending the Forgiven ZG/AQ20 runs; and finally Raid Loot, which assumes that you are joining the larger SGA community in order to take part in 40-man raids.
Also, I will want to point out here some acronyms:
Dungeon 1: The blue stuff you get in the 52-60 dungeons
Dungeon 2: The harder-to-attain blue and purple stuff you get from the upgrade quests.
Dungeon 3: Zandalar sets from ZG
Dungeon 4: Nozdromofied sets from AQ40
Tier 1: Molten Core set items
Tier 2: Blackwing Lair set items
Tier 3: Naxxramas set items
I'm not putting the links in for this list... if you want them, go look on allakhazam, wow-loot, or thottbot.
God Bless,
Neirai
