Soloing TBC heroics

Post by DoomEU

I'm going to try and solo all the TBC heroics.

Unfortunately I can no longer use the tactic of getting 102.4% avoidance (QQ) and those bosses still hit pretty hard.

At first I'm just going to go for bosses, so stealthing past trash is my first tactic, but would be cool to do a full clear, I just can't at the moment see myself being able to take multiple target dmg.

Here's my spec: http://www.wowhead.com/?talent#fZ0gAdMf0oMZeMcdI0d0VuA0o suggestions are welcome. The plan is soften damage as much as possible, and give utility which slows/weakens the enemies attacks.

Any gear suggestions?

I'm going to stack +parry gems since it isn't affected by DR (AFAIK?).

I'll get tanking swords, neck, rings and trinkets to further try to reduce damage taken.

I know I need 102.4% avoidance against lvl 82 enemies, does anyone know what I'd need against level 72 enemies to become unhittable?

Parry is subject to DR. The way the tanks value it is that If your dodge rate:Parry rate ratio is 1.88:1 then DR is equal for either. If it's less than 1.88:1, you'll get less DR from dodge, and more, you'll get less DR from parry.

The issue with tanking weapons is that all of them are fast. You don't find slow ones. I'd probably say you'd be better off with PvP gear than tank gear. You get the stamina and don't waste points on Strength.
