You just listed raid acquired tanking gear in a thread that is entitled "Pre-Raid Feral Tanking Gear."

Original Post:

I've used RAWR and Tankspot.com to see what the best feral tanking gear for raiding the 25mans. According to them, i am wearing pretty much most of it.

Helm - Hood of Exodus
Shoulders - Valorous Dreamwalker Shoulderpads
Chest - Valorous Dreamwalker Raiments
Back - Cloak of the Shadowed Sun
Wrist - Wristwraps of the Cutthroat
Hands - Dislocating Handguards
Waist - Polar Cord (trying to get something better, like Sharp-Barbed Leather Belt)
Legs - Valorous Dreamwalker Legguards
Feet - Boots of Vile Deceit
Weapon - Origin of Nightmares
Neck - Titanium Earthguard Chain (trying to eventually get Heritage or Boundless Ambition)
Rings - Gatekeeper and Keystone Great Ring
Trinkets - Valor Medal of the First War and Defender's Code
Idol - Idol of Terror

A question i have is, do i sacrifice the helm or gloves to get valorous for the 4 piece bonus set or is it even worth it, if according them, the helm and gloves are the best options for tanking feral druids? I'm also finding myself running in hit rating issues with the so called "best feral tanking gear", sitting at around 122 compared to our hit cap of 295. The only other option i can see around this is to sacrifice agility gems for more hit based ones.
