    Upgrade Advice

    I am going for the T10 4 piece and I cant decide which item to upgrade first. Currently have Festering Fingerguards http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50811 and Faceplate of the Silver Champion (Heroic) http://www.wowhead.com/?item=47943. I wasnt sure whether it would be a better idea to wait for the 95 badges and get Lightsworn Helmet http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50326 or get Lightsworn Gauntlets http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50327 in the next few days.

    If I get the Lightsworn Gauntlets:
    +8 str
    +71 crit
    -55 expertise (keep in mind Im already at 8.25% without glyph)
    -1 red socket (20 str)
    -2 str from gem bonus


    If I get the Lightsworn Helmet:
    +1 str
    +19 crit
    +8 str from gem bonus
    -6 haste
    -8 crit from gem bonus

    *EDIT*
    Put 2 piece instead of 4.
    Added armory link
    Deathknight's do it using disease, blood and the power of the unholy. Warlocks do it with dark demons by their side. Mages do it with summoned arcane powers. Druids do it using the forces of nature. Rogues do it through stealth, poison's, shadows and....from behind. Paladins do it by calling to the light for aid. Shamans do it with the help of the elements. Priests do it through the holy light.
    But warriors....
    Warriors just fucking do it.

    A full armory would be a start. Probably should buy the gloves and then get shoulders if your going for a quick 2 piece. You could always hope vault drops something but usually pretty unreliable.

    im going to assume you have the shoulders already. if not than get those. find hit somewhere else if you have on t9 shoulders. than you can really go either way, gloves or helm. i'd suggest helm because those gloves are very good. and part of the BiS list.

    Currently what I have are the legs, and the shoulders for the T10.
    Deathknight's do it using disease, blood and the power of the unholy. Warlocks do it with dark demons by their side. Mages do it with summoned arcane powers. Druids do it using the forces of nature. Rogues do it through stealth, poison's, shadows and....from behind. Paladins do it by calling to the light for aid.

    Even so, the gloves the OP curently have are better than the 251 t10. I would take the helm, as it is a direct upgrade.

    If there's one thing I'm not, it's in control.

    How? He is way over hit cap and way over exp cap.


    http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50811
    Gemmed with 20str + 10str 10 crit(im going to ignore the 10 crit from the gem because it will be on t10 gloves as well.)

    142STR and 2 wasted stats(hed still be at his caps without the gloves)

    http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50327
    @ 10str 10 crit(again ignoring the crit part)
    128 STR wasted hit but 1.55% crit.

    T10 gauntlets. Definately.
