Friday Flowchart: Upgrading your holy paladin’s gear.
Lyrandre: @ILikeBubbles
And theoretically, on rare occasions, we also have an @Orithea! On less rare and more wordy occasions, we also have a James. Who does not have a Twitter because he is fail? Anyway, there had to be some bubbles in this blog somewhere.

I love your flowcharts. Have I ever told you I love your flowcharts? No? Well then, I love your flowcharts.

That is excellent. Just…awesome.

Ugh, holy shields do not exist. Ouch. I’m rocking my sweet Tor’s Crest. Pity is allowed.

@Kaelandros I got the Voice of Reason from my guild’s first KT 25 kill in Jan ’09. I haven’t even seen an upgrade drop much less won one since. :P

I have taught the making of flowcharts well? XD

@Ori – I’ve been running reg trio to try and get that comparable 219 shield to drop, but of course the loot table is bugged and its not actually on there as I have never seen it drop.

Ori, I just picked up bracers that I believe are better than Bracers of Pale Illumination. The mail bracers off Marrowgar 10 man have just about the same stats, but with more intellect on them. Coldwraith Bracers, they’re not too much better, but they ARE better.
And you’re right, Holy Shields do not exist.

I was asked about shields by another holy paladin this week. He’s using the BoE Zom’s, unfortunately. There are 17 epic PvE shields available (ignore the horde/ally ToC split): http://www.wowhead.com/?items=4.6&filter=minle=200;cr=23:79;crs=1:3;crv=0:0#0-2+1
Get thee to:
Naxx Spider wing 10man or 25man, KT 25man
XT 10man
Pit of Saron normal
Hodir 10man Hard
Thorim 25man
Anub’arak 10man
Faction Champs 25man
Sindragosa 10man
Marrowgar 25man
Marrowgar’s shield is probably the easiest & best to get, but the Sindragosa shield is FREAKIN’ SWEET LOOKING!
As for the Bracers of Pale Illumination… WTF? How did I completely miss this? Thankfully I’ve got a full set or two of old holy gear in the bank. I was a little sad to take off the Sunforged after going through the effort to have them crafted. I guess that’s 1 more item to regem for my Valithria set.

If a shield never drops when a holy paladin is present, does it truly exist?

I snagged a spell power shield in ToC 25 for my shaman healer. There was a holy pally rolling on it, too, but they got a cape from Anub. It has as much crit as haste, so perhaps I shouldn’t feel bad for the pally. The commenters there don’t think it’s that good anyway.

Oh well…it was a pug raid, screw ’em. :) I was using the BoE Zom’s shield before.

I dunno, Ori… Ask the Shaman. :P
