Hi guys! I'm here to ask you some n00b things.
I leveled my pally to 70 one week ago, and i decided to do PvE with her(just because i'm alrdy doing PvP with my rouge and i want to try raids) and i decided to go as a Tankadin.
On my server there is a new guild recuirting all classes, they are doing Kara to gear all players and do harder raids and so on. The GM is intrested to let me join as Tank in the guild, but when he asked "what's your stats?" ..well..i just answered i 70ed since few time so i'm still gearing.
I'm following the "Pre-Kara Uncrushability item guide" linked in the sticked thread here, that leads
HERE
. Fact is, to get that equipment it will take AGES. I'm on a pretty old server, where lik 70% of the players plays PvP and are well-geared, the others are doing PvE and are well-geared as well, so
no1 is doing the 5-mans i need to get most of the gear listed in that guide
.
So,
HERE COMES MY QUESTION!
What is the fastest way to gear my Tankaid for Kara without searching for hours a group for 5-mans and, obiviously, don't getting the loots i need on the first time?

Yes, i think they are..they are doing Kara now, first run they went to prince so they have some good gear but can't do harder raids now, so they are ALL gearing up..i wonder if they would like to take a just-70ed character, cuz it's impossible to me to farm all the things listed in that guide on my server..

There are some really nice BoE blacksmith made items that can be bought/made depending on your sever.
Oathkeeper's Helm
,
Belt of the Guardian
,
Bracers of the Green Fortress
. Also the tanking neck from SSO is very nice too. The other stuff are from dungies, as far as i know.
Felsteel gloves and leggings too maybe

Ok, i have the Felsteel Gloves for now..what is SSO?
Anyway, thx for your help^^. But when i collect those item's i'll be like halfway to my tanking gear i guess..when i will be ready to start Kara in your opinion?
EDIT:
Lol that items seems to cost a lot..i'll have to spend a lot of Gold >___________> ..

SSO is the Shattered Sun Offensive, the new daily Isle.
Seeker's Gavel
is a decent starting weapon,
Shattered Sun Pendant of resolve
is a good tank necklace if you are exalted with the aldor or the scryers.
As for starting Kara, i'd say you need about 11k health unbuffed, 11-12k Armor with Devotion Aura up.
490 defense is a must, and as much avoidance as you can get. Oh and around 180-200 spell dmg.
Yeah i aggree on the epics costing alot, but I got them crafted, I'm a miner so i collect the mats my self. Guidlies helping out too

Felsteel
is better than
Oathkeeper's
if you're crittable/crushable and it's cheaper
You want 12k+ armor WITHOUT Devotion Aura
You want
this
or
this
not
that
cause you want uncrushable without the procs.

I don't believe any of these items are hard to achieve, but that's just my opinion >.>
If you provide your armory link i can look over your gear for specific upgrades.

Ok,
THIS
is my armory but, as i said, i just 70ed and have retri gear..as possible starting Tank gear in Bank i have
Andormu's Tear
and
Felsteel Gloves
Plus, i am farming SSO rep to take
Seeker's Gavel
and
Sunward Crest
from rep.

Obviously, 99% of what you're wearing is Ret leveling gear. Don't worry. It's easily fixed. ;-)
Definitely use the felsteel gloves for tanking and get the felsteel helm. That blue PvP gear isn't going to cut it.
Get yourself into Durnholde/Black Morass and grind out that last 4k honor with Keepers of Time.
Your legs
and your
helm enchant
come from Revered rep.
Run
this
quest chain to get your belt and a shot at both your
shoulders
in Botanica and your
chest
in Mechanar. Alternately, you can ally yourself with the Aldor and grind that reputation to revered and get
this
chestpiece.
A single trip through Shadow Labyrinth will get
these
bracers as a quest reward, which will last you until you can get Green Fortress.
As a tank, you'll want to run Steamvaults quite a bit. Blademeld has already linked the two necklaces (one drop, one rep) from there, plus there's
this
cloak, which is as good as you'll get until you start gathering badges.
Two quested trinkets
here
and
here
For a second ring,
this
is easily questable in Netherstorm,
this
drops in Durnholde, and
this
is craftable.

You're in your ret gear/spec so it doesn't really help...
and you need to hit revered with most/all outland factions imo, which should be easy through running corresponding dungeons
-Shattered halls for figurine of the Colossus and Rep
-Botanica for Righteous Shoulders and Rep
-Shadow Labs for Adamantine Figurine and Rep
-Durnhold for Rep
-Steamvaults for Devilshark and Steam-hinge and Rep
it's 6 stam, not 4 :P
and + defense on cloak is better than dodge before uncrush
http://www.warcrafter.net/sandbox/68465
-- with 76 % avoidance, you can take off a couple items you think are too hard to get and still be uncrushable
