Caps & Requirements
Hit/expertise caps shift a lot at this gear level — the creator notes below (and the full mechanics writeup in the Herald & Argent guide) cover the real per-build requirements.
Best Races
Berserking (+20% cast haste for 10s) is a big burst window for Fire and Arcane. Blood Elf trades that for Arcane Torrent — mana back plus an AoE silence.
Expansive Mind (+5% maximum mana) helps mana longevity on long fights, and Escape Artist is handy utility. Human (The Human Spirit) is the minor alternative.
Notes
Alternatives are listed where two items are close enough that raid composition, luck or professions decide between them.
