Introduction:
This list of items includes all the gear I personally think is the best to get, before you start raiding the 10 man or 25 man instances as a balance skilled druid. This guide is meant to be an overview of the available items, so that you can better focus your heroic instance runs and your emblems of heroism. You might also use this guide to evaluate the equip of a new guild aspirant.

NOTE: I often included more options per item slot, because I think either one of these options will do it's purpose. Anyway, the first item in the list, will be my personal favorite. Sometimes I listed the options, because other items for the same spots are harder to get, or it might take a longer time to reach them.

I hope this list is helpful to some of you.

A little Modification might be useful

First, I want to thank you for your good work.

I just want to suggest one thing, it might be better if you put also enchant/gem/improvements for each slot.

Couple of suggestions:

Split your items in each slot, or at least add notes/comments; for example, Boots of Septic Wounds won't be available for a while (guilds will tend to give them to their own players first) and when they are, they'll be quite expensive. The chocker is the other example of this.

Also, I don't know how the crafted leather pieces hold up, but the Titansteel Guardian is a fairly potent starting weapon, even post nerf. There's also the nice (but expensive) Titanium Spellshock Necklace and Ring

You may also want to include gems and enchants at some point, they're fairly associated with gear.

That said, it looks good. Keep at it. Smiling

Thank you for your suggestions, I will try to fit them in. I really forgot to take the crafted items into account, so I have to give it another look. On the other hand, I wanted to make the list as succinct as possible, but I see your point.

Actually you pointed me into a good direction to extend that list, and I will look over it, before I start the next list, so they all profit from that advancement.

Thanks for the good comment!
