Closing the Gap: A Guide to Gearing up in 4.1

Many players have alts, but are they geared? And how about your main, have you started raiding yet? Well, if your answer to either question was no, you're in luck. 4.1 introduces some additions that make the game more friendly and the gear gap smaller, from additional BoAs to changing valor point gains in heroics. Most importantly, 4.1 brings about the revamped 5-player dungeons Zul'Gurub and Zul'Aman! The bosses from these dungeons drop ilvl 353 epic loot—potentially cutting out hours of farming heroics and doing dailies. But with so much new loot, what should you really keep an eye out for?
See how good the new loot is and also see what gear is easily obtainable before raiding right after the break!
This guide does not aim to provide a ideal set of ilvl 346-359 gear for each class and spec; rather it analyzes all the new ilvl 353 loot in the context of current options (epic BoEs, ilvl 346 heroic loot, Justice/Valor point rewards, reputation rewards) with brief nods to PvP and Archaeology. We've also included select loot from the entry t11 bosses in case you get lucky in a pug. We've organized each sub-section roughly by armor type and primary stat. Several classes and specs can benefit from each list differently, so use your own discretion and theorycrafting. The item with the highest ilvl is not necessarily best, but by listing everything, you can see what items are similar and potentially easier to acquire. Some slots are infamous for having hardly any options, such as wrists. Other slots, such as waists and chests, have an overflow of items.
Everyone treats their alts differently---some players buy every epic on the AH, others chain-run heroics, others do hardly anything at all--so we've set up item comparisons to help you navigate the options and ultimately decide which item is the most efficient for your playstyle and goals. Some reputation requirements are easy to reach, such as Guardians of Hyjal revered, if you've done a bit of questing. However, if your alt has leveled primarily through gathering professions and hates questing, you might look into finding well-itemized BoEs instead. If you're still struggling to find loot beyond these options, consider the rare-quality rewards from dungeon quests, lower ilvl BoEs, and ilvl 333 honored reputation rewards. Don't want some of the items featured on the item comparison? Simply remove them to compare what is best for your spec. Use the weight scale to further refine what is best for your class/spec.

Alchemy

New Weapons, Off-hands, Shields, Thrown, and Wands
Like trinkets, there are numerous weapons that never drop when you need them to. Both
Forgiatura
and
Runografia
can create ilvl 346 weapons if you haven't seen any heroic drops, but the materials required for these crafted weapons is a bit extreme. Definitely run the new instances to aim for a new weapon--casters will be especially happy to see new epic spellpower weapons and wands! With a flood of Maelstrom Crystals in the future, there's no reason for your alt not to farm up a new epic weapon and put a top-line enchant on it.

Artigli di Thekal

Scettro dei Riti degli Amani

PvP Rewards
A list of PvP rare and epic quality rewards is
here
. Collect conquest points for epic PvP gear primarily through rated battlegrounds and arena. Collect honor points for rare-quality PvP gear primarily through battlegrounds and Tol Barad. In the past, casters desperate for a wand upgrade would play several arena matches to purchase an epic wand.
Archaeology
There are several useful BoA archaeology epics for your 85! They are:
Anello dell'Imperatore Bambino
,
Scimitarra dello Scirocco
,
Bastone di Ammunae
,
Bastone del Thane Occultista Thaurissan
,
Bambola Preferita di Tyrande
, and
Zin'rokh, Distruttrice di Mondi
. Generally, archaeology is neat in theory but time-consuming in practice. If you got lucky back in December grinding out an epic for your main, great! Send it to your alt. If not, there are much better uses of your time to quickly gear an alt.
BoP Profession Epics
Honorary mention goes to
Ingegneria
for BoP ilvl 359 epics. Across the board, these epics are the best option available for a non-raiding alt—it's redundant to constantly repeat them under each subcategory. A list of Engineering helms, customizable with a range of
Cogwheels
, is
here
. As mentioned earlier,
Alchimia
allows players to craft BoP ilvl 359 trinkets that provide large amounts of primary stats, which don't require lvl 85 to equip.
We hope this guide will help you have fun gearing your alt up! To read more about 4.1, check out the latest
