And here, ladies an gentlemen, we have a wall of text containing pointless back-story and questions that could have been answered by a little effort and reading on the part of the author.

Original Post:

First off I want to say THANK YOU for such an awesome and informative thread/guide. Initially I had followed this guide (posted somewhere else) when converting from Prot to Ret and had good results. Then I went brain dead I guess and started chasing what I thought was the all powerfull Attack Power and pretty much gimped myself. A few days ago I came to my senses and came back to this guide to re-gem and re-enchant my gear properly. It has helped considerably! Now I find myself with a delima. I have my hit capped at 277 (no hit gems used at all), my strength now almost 1.1k and my attack power just over 3k all unbuffed...but where I am having a delima is with my expertise, I have none at all. In my last heroic I had no misses but a bit over 8% glancing blows. Right now I don't have access to any gear that has an expertise rating, I am trying to get some but haven't yet. I read earlier that I should never use gems to get expertise but I wonder in my case, since I have none, would it be better for me to drop 1 +8 Str/crit gem for the Dragon's Eye to get expertise? Or if I can't find a Dragon's Eye drop 2 red Strength gems for 2 Expertise gems to get capped? Or should I just live with what I have and wait until I can get an expertise drop?
Thanks for the advice
