As a warrior, your toolbars are undoubtedly overfull with a variety of abilities. Here’s a nice, easy way to free up a couple spots that I stumbled across at Tankspot thanks to Lore.

Basically all in 1 button, it uses the biggest Healthstone possible and if no healthstone is available then it tries to use a Charge Crystal Focus. I’ve tweeked it a little to show the tooltip for the Charge Crystal Focus since those are stackable to 20 and it’ll let you easily keep track of how many you have remaining.

The most heated topic that arose as a result of the Badge pick order was this one so no point in dodging it, let’s take a stab at it. For reference: Shattered Sun Pendant of Resolve, Brooch of Deftness

Differences…

First and foremost, it’s pretty easy to see that the Brooch nets us 9 extra Hit Rating and an additional 3 Expertise which gives the Brooch a clear and obvious edge right out of the gates. The Shattered Sun Pendant is unique though in that once you are exalted with either the Aldor or Scryer faction, the item gains a proc.

Welcome to the 3rd installment of the ever popular Badge of Justice Pick Order.

What’s new!?

Chestplate of Stoicism, Sunguard Legplates, Girdle of the Fearless and Ring of the Stalwart Protector. All 4 items represent slots where previously usable tanking badge items resided. For those of us that already had all of the previous Badge pieces this may be somewhat disappointing but, it’s gotta be a bit of a relief to those still working on getting them all.

Let’s Recap
