Pursuit of Justice – Heroic Dungeons

With Cataclysm looming and Wrath of the Lich King coming to an end now is the time to be looking toward the future. In this guide, I will be recalling the dungeon guides of Wrath of the Lich King, and presenting you a quick overview of what rewards you can reap in your pursuit of justice points.

I included a level of difficulty on my list, by now many of us will undoubtedly consider all of these easy, though with lower geared alts or new players the difficulty may be different.

“This Pear, So Delicious”

There we have it, a run down of what instances contains the most reward when trying to get that T10 gear, or simply trying to stockpile 4000 points in prep for Cataclysm.

Over the course of this week I intend to also make an overview of all the raid points in a similar fashion. In closing I would like to thank all the contributors to the raid guides embedded in this guide, your content is always appreciated on Wow-pro!
