But play with it enough, and you'll find that it produces a pretty effective shopping list. try setting values around the following for Cassieann and see what it comes up with: Class: Rogue Max level: Heroic Items per slot: 40 and values along the lines of: Agility: 20 Melee Crit: 15 Attack Power: 12 Melee Hit: 10 Stamina: 8 Dodge: 7 Strength: 6 Armor Value: 2 Parry: 1 due to the lower amount of +crit gear, you need to overrank it. Similarly with +AP gear, downrank it as it is legion. there or thereabouts should produce results for you. I haven't really delved into getting the proper results out of weapons on it; you may want to run those off as a second category (or, just PvP for the Glads weapons as they're superior to just about everything else at that point anyways) Hope this helps!

It's a random instance drop so you'll have to look for it in the AH, but it's a badass BOE cloak which could eventually pay for itself. Takes 10 Shadowcloth, and 14 primal airs... and a nether.

Great amount of shadow damage I still use mine for trash and throw on the Tirisfal wand of asendancy for the hit on bosses. One of my favorite sites for pre kara gear is wow-loot.com. I geared my paladin to full tanking status, uncrushable and uncrittable with 11k unbuffed stam in mostly quest greens and a few blues from that site.

Don't bother with tome of shadow force. That's a big waste of honor you'll need for your main hand. You forgot S1 (or S2 seeing as 2.4 will be here by the time you’re 70) mace.

It's got spell hit and 2 sockets, it rocks! Your first badge purchases should be the Orb of the Soul Eater or Icon of the Silver Crescent. There are BT raiders out there still wearing those pieces! If you get in a hurry to get your cloth crafted you can make the other 2 types of cloth and trade them with other Tailors. If you use all 3 cooldowns you'll end up with 4 pieces of cloth every 4 days. Since you're starting so early you shouldn't have too much trouble though. Happy Face-Melting!

My main is a rogue and I have used the Shadowpanther database as a gear bible ever since I hit Outland. He has truncated it a bit lately - the lists used to be longer and include stuff down to level 65 or so. Now they are mostly high end stuff. But it is still the best rogue resource.

BoD is a solid weapon and looks great on a spriest. The first boss in SL has a pair of shadowpower gloves that are ideal until you can get the gloves from Attumen. Nearly all crafted cloth is best for you, so you'll be busy there... also there's a damage cloak that tailors can make that is great til the Moroes cloak. Rings come from all over, SV ring is popular for one while Kara can get you the second from rep. Neck from Mech or SL until Ristlynn's drops, and trinkets... I'm vague on.

Trinkets

Black Morass -> Hourglass of the Unraveller

Matching “Set”
Sethekk, Mech, Arc, Black Morass, SL -> Assassination set
Botanica > Boots of the Shifting Sands

All CE quests -> Attack power head enchant

I’m a little vague on cloaks and barcers.
