What are you doing instead of gearing your 70's?

[Eteocles]

Secret Beta Player's Tip: ALL THE GEAR IN NORTHREND SUCKS ASS AND IS 90% SPIRIT-HEAVY SHIT. Continue gearing up in BC, I guarantee you most likely will not be upgrading much till 76+ at the absolute earliest.

Out of the 888 uncommon quest rewards in Northrend, 94 have spirit. (10.6%)
Compare to 100 out of 585 in Outlands. (17.1%)


Out of the 125 rare quest rewards in Northrend, ELEVEN have spirit. (8.8%)
Compare to 39 out of 255 in Outlands. (15.3%)


Secret Beta Player's Tip: ETEOCLES DOES NOT AGREE WITH THE NUMBERS lulz.

Except Stabface is counting total rewards; not 1 per quest since that's all you can choose nor taking into account class limitations(aka counting spiritless warr/rogue gear) and therefore changes your numbers. I also hereby change it to "cloth/leather caster gear" - most of which is int/spi or sta/spi and spelldmg, rarely hit, no crit, sometimes haste.

Also, @ Suv: Yeah, you're a priest, you live on spirit :P The regen change hasn't done diddly shit to me, I've had to drink LESS since going into Beta than I have on Live it regens so well in my existing gear.

@ Spirit-based talents/etc: Patently false; nothing has been "tweaked" to work with spirit; regen was just changed to be a constant count-up rather than a sudden jump every 3 seconds, nothing more. The "regen" changes were done months ago on live when spirit gain was revamped for everyone.
