T10 vs Lvl 85 HC 5-man?

[iceberg265]

Yes you can reach 80. You will replace t10 gear at like level 82-83.

[Sammonoske]

actually it will not

Deathbringer's Will would say otherwise.

[Syero]

You wouldn't be able to queue for heroics with tier 10 gear. you need an ilvl average of 333 to queue for heroic dungeons.

Deathbringer's Will would say otherwise.

severely gimped stats say otherwise. Or do you still think level 80 haste/crit procs will yield the same percentages at level 85 as a level 85 item? Especially considering the huge inflation cata gear

I levelled my warrior through to 85 before Uldum/Twilight Highlands were itemised, and I tanked plenty of HC 5 mans with little to no issues in my level 80 gear (Full 277 + some 284, for reference).

[axelnomnom]

Even if t10 ilvl 277 was comparable to leveling gear, you would still have a very small health pool and you would die from anything and everything

[syvs]

You can easily make it to 80 before cata.

Why wear T10 when you can wear greens?

Well with a job / university / music / Girlfriend i managed to get my DK to 80 in 2 weeks, 55-58 for a dk takes like a hour so 58 - 80 playing 6 hours a day you should 100% make it.
