I fixed that as well. Wouldn’t want to lie with the numbers, after all!

Thanks. And my math-nerd/copy-editor impulses compel me to point out that the total emblem cost for all items adds up to 380 with the corrected bracer cost.

My apologies, I fixed this. All the other valor items cost less, but the bracers are BoE, so I guess that explains their higher cost or the AH would be flooded with them.

Uh…the Valor bracers are 60 emblems, not 25. I’m a sad, sad tank because I just tried to go buy them and didn’t have enough emblems.

Emblem grinding is probably the only grinding I have actually looked forward to.

I dont know if this has been changed or not. but to my knowledge block value on gear is being doubled, so although it not being a very sexy stat at the minute, that +Sheild block might still be a a nice amount of avoided damage, will have to see if this ends up being the case, but in theory it looks better. Also Higher SS damage cant be a bad thing threat wise!

Their is only one thing, the bracers for 25 valor are BoE. So if you have the gold and the luck to find them on the AH you could subtract 25 from your Emblem total. Just thought that was worth being brought up. BTW Great blog and i have been reading it like a mad man since my vacation just ended and their were like 6 new blog posts

>.> Technically I’m still on vacation, but I wanted to send you an email and in the process I noticed this post and had to comment.

Personally I’m not all that thrilled about the SBV on pieces either, but I am looking forward to being able to get some pretty nice upgrades through emblems.

Apparently there is a new tanking weapon in the new heroic 5-man (Unless I’ve been mislead) which is nice for those of us with no luck at all on LL or the sword from FL. Or even Slayer of the Lifeless.

Nice list, but I’ll be skipping the helm. I have the Ironbark faceguard from Freya 10; you’ll have to pry that off my head with a crowbar. Waffling on the gloves; I have t8 hands at the moment, and although the badge gloves are better, I might save the badges and pick up the t9 gloves instead.
