This guide is intended to outline a comprehensive guide to warrior related gear that is to be attained from questing, faction rewards, pre-raid tanking and pvp-orientated gear. I shall compile information gathered from a number of current sticky threads floating around and attempt to organise these into a more manageable single thread for easy reference.

The folowing posts will outline the following sets of gear guides in the following order...

* Rewards from questing (Credits to Birgitta)
(http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=194559515&postId=1944020237&sid=1#1)

* Faction earned rewards (Credits to Ubolt)
(http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=194559515&postId=1944020248&sid=1#2)

* Pre-raid tanking gear (Credits to Ender)
(http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=194559515&postId=1944020256&sid=1#4)

* PVP/DPS orientated gear (Credits to Creative)
(http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread.html?topicId=194559515&postId=1944020261&sid=1#7)


Again, the aim of this post is not to ninja other peoples ideas, but rather to adhear to the moderaters requests in regards of compiling similar threads together into one main category (Gear).

Feel free to post suggestions and I will be sure to check back on here often and ammend such suggestions (feel free to pick up on typos too ).

I do intend to update this list as time goes on. Infact I intend on working more on the factions reward secion very soon (maybe tomorrow) and will continue to take ideas and add them to this library over time.

Again, its with no intention to steal other peoples ideas and copy them back down, but instead to have them all in one easy place.

You should really credit each individual post with it's creator rather than right at the end. But otherwise great work.

Please credit the original authors in the initial post (if you do intend on updating this). This current poor quality crediting is detrimental to those that invested hours in making the guides and barely get to see their names that are knocked down the list.
