My threat set (with +hit food buff) is currently +8.24% hit and 42 expertise (10.5%).

I use the following pieces to get that:
Pepe's (+hit)
Pit Lord Neck (+expertise)
Badge Bracers (+expertise)
Teron Gloves (+expertise)
Onslaught Belt (+expertise)
Praetorian's Legs (+Hit)
Onslaught Boots (+expertise)
Abyssal Lord Ring (+hit)
Kaz Shield (gemmed with Lionseye)
Mother Sword (+Hit)

After seeing the ranged weapon from normal MgT -- I really would like to try and find some time to pick that up, as it would complement my set well (I might swap out the badge bracers with T6 if I had that ranged slot).

I only wear the whole set on trash or in BT, as it's just too low in avoidance for Sunwell. I do use the sword frequently in Sunwell however - I have found that it's a nice boost in threat for swapping a single piece (as mentioned earlier, the human bonus helps with that). If I was any other race, I would probably use the brutalizer on all fights. In my mind, the weapon slot is probably the easiest to add threat - similar to a pally tank using a spell damage weapon vs. a tank weapon. For most races the trade-off is expertise vs. 330 armor. For me it's much better threat stats vs. 300 armor, 30ish defense and ~160 HP .

I have found that in Sunwell, I do a lot of small changes to my gear for a touch more threat, or avoidance. For most of T6, I rarely swapped gear (except for mother).
