There are plenty of other places to find gear information, and some do a far better job than I in my opinion. However, since I did spend some time putting together a rough list for myself I decided to share it with all of you also. This should, by no means, be regarded as the absolute best items obtainable. It should also not be looked at as the only options. When I was looking up gear I stopped after finding a couple of items I wanted, or when I felt the item would be sufficient prior to getting my T7 pieces. I did have to go back and look up helms, though, because I have Greensight Gogs.
