I was thinking of speccing boomkin because I am getting tired to tanking naxx and heroics. I reallly want to dps so I was wondering if anyone can give me a pure pve build for boomkin. Also if anyone has a list of heroic gear requirments or something like that for a boomkin that would be awesome.

Here's a build similar to mine.

In terms of requirements, I would say just use the AH to pick up items from the Overcast set to fill any gaps in your gear.
When you can afford it, pick up a Titansteel Guardian. It is the mace of choice until you down Kael'Thuzad.
After that, when you can afford it, pick up the Earthgiving set.

Why get Earthgiving when there are much better cloth options?
Really, if you want to raid on a Moonkin, your first priority should be getting hitcapped.
Because +hit is not such a huge priority when
gearing up for heroics
?
Beyond that, I really wish people would not devalue Spirit to the point of nothing. It's really not all that uncommon to join a raid with 0 or 1 outside sources of mana replenishment. But yes, if you are geared to the point that mana is not a problem anymore, there's superior, more easily acquired cloth items.

that is not a pve spec...
Imp FF is a need typhoon and gale winds are worthless pve. Eclipsed should be full as well. and lastly IMP FF is a requirement for a real raiding moonkin now. FF can be applied by a feral and give you 3% hit and crit..... y would you pass that up? Celestial focus is better for over all dps in PvE than trents or starfall too.

Starfall is practically worthless for PvE.

Starfall is practically worthless for PvE.
I don't want this to come out wrong so please understand this comes from good intentions. If you honestly believe that then 1 of 2 things is evident.
You have not done the research on this. If this is the case I encourage you to read a lot of the posts on this forum.
You are just intentionally leading people into a line of thought that will not ever help them.
Starfall IS a good spell for PvE you just need to use it in a manner that does not cause issues for healers/tanks. There are many situations where this is a VERY good spell to use. There are times when it is a bad spell to use as well. You have to come to the decision yourself about how you feel about this.
Please if you have a response to something provide a reasoning behind your response or it will not be very constructive.

Let me just add something here.
Even if Starfall were worthless PvE (which it's not), reinvesting the Starfall talent point would buy you maybe another .4% - .8% damage, depending on how bad your gear is. I know that those percentages can really add up, but it's okay to drop a point here and there for the sake of utility or fun if you don't go overboard.
I can not recommend anyone go Balance without suggesting up Starfall for no reason other than they would be missing out on a really cool spell. People can worry about squeezing out those extra couple percentage points after having gotten a feel for the class's toolbox.
