[warrior] Regarding gear.

I'm having a hard time picking gear and sockets at the moment, simply because I've read so many things about what scales better.

I'm a bit low on hit rating and crit rating at the moment (I'm normally prot) but I'm not sure if I should resocket my gear or not.

Also as you can see I'm currently using 2 pieces of doomplate for the set bonus, but as soon as I get a better breastplate I'm not sure what to use.

I currently have the T4 DPS guantlets and the Gauntlets of Martial Perfection but I'm not sure what to use.

So basicly my question is, what should I focus on first - hit or crit or continue on AP? And should I resocket some of my items?

Your hit is completely fine. IMO, this is another case of hit being extremely over rated for warriors. After you pass 8.6% hit, AP and Crit (and haste) become vastly superior to Hit.

In terms of gems, 8 Str (Red) > 4 Str & 4 Crit (Blue) > 4 Str & 6 Stam (Blue). I would atleast replace all of you +8 hit gems according to this. The other gems aren't optimal, but there would only be a small difference if you spent the money to replace them.

As far as the gloves are concerned, Gauntlets of Martial Perfection are superior. After filling them with gems, the difference is about 13 Str and .5% Crit vs. .7% Hit.

As far as balance is concerned, do not be worried about stacking crit, or hit, or anything like that. Evaluate each item and choose which ever one gives you the largest dps increase in that slot.

Reclaimed is currently looking for 2 Mages, 2 Warlocks, and a Holy Priest who are Elitist Jerks just like the rest of our guild.
