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
The only Horde option. Arcane Torrent returns mana for Holy and doubles as an AoE silence / interrupt for Retribution and Protection.
Retribution wants the Sword / Mace expertise; Holy and Protection lean on The Human Spirit and Every Man for Himself. Draenei (Gift of the Naaru, party +1% hit) and Dwarf (Stoneform clears bleeds, poisons and disease — a strong Prot cooldown) are both viable.
Notes
Alternatives are listed where two items are close enough that raid composition, luck or professions decide between them.
