10HC Neverending winter or Wraith Gladiator?

[Deleted]

Hello.

I'm wondering what would be better for tanking 10man stuff right now.

Wrathful Gladiator's Shield Wall
Binds when picked up
Off Hand Shield
7602 Armor
+181 Stamina
Durability 120 / 120
Requires Level 80
Item Level 270
Requires personal and team arena rating of 1800
Equip: Improves your resilience rating by 121 (1.28% L80).

OR

Neverending Winter
Heroic
Binds when picked up
Off Hand Shield
7521 Armor
+82 Strength
+124 Stamina
Blue Socket
Socket Bonus: +6 Stamina
Durability 120 / 120
Requires Level 80
Item Level 264
Equip: Increases your dodge rating by 42 (0.93% L80).
Equip: Increases your parry rating by 74 (1.64% L80).


which I currently have?

With my gear on, I currently have

50006 HP
27678 Armor
20.19% dodge
20.48 parry
40.13 Block


I'm just wondering if its worth getting for a little hp/armor boost until cata? I only raid 10mans so 25man shields are out of the question.

Cheers!

Keep NW. It's a bit better.

Heroic NW is better.

Didnt the wrath shield have a socket aswell? I think you forgot to list it there, its the shield with most stamina.
Anyway, neverending winter, it has better tank stats overall.

But Wrathful is a lot cooler. I wear it while idling/doing irrelevant content because I like looking awesome and because I never got to see the shield from BQL.

Maybe I am paranoid a bit but is this a weak attempt at trolling? Someone called tankerz0r with the only post, this one, asking a question that has been quite popular among troll community in last weeks.

Paranoid, Its a genuine question. I'm sh*t with usernames. I wasn't sure if the extra armour and stamina would outweigh the slight drop of strength, parry and dodge. There isnt much in it, but for the the sake of 70 honor points even if its 1% better for me, its could be a slight upgrade. There isn't much decent info for post 4.0.1 either.

Plus it does look much cooler than my Pink rams head >.<

For looks, the one from bloodqueen25 looks better, and the heroic version of that has the strongest stats available ingame atm. Its same model as arena shield btw, just different colors.

I did him with 2 pvp gear pieces and 2 ilvl200 trinkets (one being blue).
And know this one shaman that did him with 8 pvp pieces, and bastard managed to be top healer, good stuff.

Do you actually need the arena rating to buy it/ use it?

The wrathful shield? No. The tooltips still say you do but you don't. Same goes for 264 lvl weapons.
