Your gear and gems and enchants are fine enough. Only thing is that you have a staff. Yeah staff = better SP enchant. Black magic + int to shield is better dps. 1h + shield combined also have better stats, as long as they are not too different in ilevels.
You can get the
Bastion of Resolve from a ToC 25 pug. The next upgrade is off
ICC 25 lord morrowgar.
As for a 1h weapon, both
ToC 25 and
ICC 10 offer upgrades, but the
Quel Dalar reward is superior.
I am in much the same boat as you. My guild is 6/9 in ICC 10 and we run ToC 25 pugs. We can clear it every week.
For frost tokens, do your first daily random and always do the weekly raid, with or without your guild. After that your only other option is to do your best in ICC 10 for frost emblems or upgrades. Just plan out what frost badge items you want ahead of time and keep collecting every frost emblem you can get.
Also, ICC 10 trash drops ilevel 264 epics. I have seen
Leggings of Dubious Charms drop twice.
You can score a trophy from ToC 25 for ilevel 245 t9.
Also pugging ToC 25 should not be a problem. I am on a server known for bad pugs, and by being
elitists, we clear it.
