After having spent the last couple of months gearing my boomkins and just basically having fun in BG's, I was thinking of taking them into heroics like I used to with my DK+Shamans. I'm reasonably sure my boomkin PVP gear is going to be useless for tanking .

I'd appreciate what your thoughts are on beginning bear tanking gear, gemming, hit cap%, etc and while we're at it, what's the min hit cap for PVE for a boom? somewhere around 80 or so?

Thanks as always.
