Gear is a great motivator for me, too, though usually only when I know it'll last me a bit Back when I first got my Tankadin to 80, I was willing to pug to run through Heroic HoR & regular ToC just to get the 219 tanking shield and the Black Heart - I must have run through those PUGs about 100 times, With this stuff, though. I guess I couldn't get motivated since the 7th is coming up soon and it'll all be replaced so quickly.
