Small Guide to gearing an Enhancement shaman for Karazhan

[Zins]

This is a guide that is meant to gear up an Enhancement shaman for Karazhan quickly and easily. Step 1 is the most desirable, with each descending step an alternative.

Head:
1. Grab a Mask of Veiled Death (Mask of Veiled Death - Item - World of Warcraft) from the Auction House
2. Run Normal Auchenai Crypts and get the Darkguard Face Mask (Darkguard Face Mask - Item - World of Warcraft). This item provides similar DPS, but also gives a helpful stamina boost

Neck:
1. Buy a Necklace of Trophies (Necklace of Trophies - Item - World of Warcraft)from the Auction House
2. Run Normal or Heroic Botanica for the Jagged Bark Pendant (Jagged Bark Pendant - Item - World of Warcraft)

Shoulders:
1. Run Normal or Heroic Durneholde for the Mantle of Perenolde (Mantle of Perenolde - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy the Talbuk Hide Shoulders (Talbuk Hide Spaulders - Item - World of Warcraft) if Horde, buy the Blackened Leather Spaulders (Blackened Leather Spaulders - Item - World of Warcraft) if Alliance. These are better than the #1 option, however much more difficult to obtain

Back:
1. Run Normal or Heroic Shadow Labyrinth for Cloak of the Inciter (Cloak of the Inciter - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Cloak of the Craft (Cloak of the Craft - Item - World of Warcraft) from the AH

Chest:
1. Buy Chestguard of the Dark Stalker (Cloak of the Craft - Item - World of Warcraft) from the AH
2. Run Normal Blood Furnace for Vest of Vengeance (Vest of Vengeance - Item - World of Warcraft) Note: Put 3xBold Living Ruby in this chestpiece and it can be very competitive with Kara epics

Wrists:
1. Run Normal Underbog for Lykul Bloodbands (Lykul Bloodbands - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Run Normal Ramparts for Bracers of Finesse (Bracers of Finesse - Item - World of Warcraft)

Hands:
1. Run Normal or Heroic Black Morass for Handgrips of Assassination (Handgrips of Assassination - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Fel Leather Gloves (Fel Leather Gloves - Item - World of Warcraft) and put in 1xBold Living ruby and 1xInscribed Noble Topaz

Waist:
1. Run Normal Slave Pens for Tracker's Belt (Tracker's Belt - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Sash of Silent Blades (Sash of Silent Blades - Item - World of Warcraft) from the auction house

Legs:
1. Kill Ogres in BEM to get Thunderlord Clan Artifact (Thunderlord Clan Artifact - Item - World of Warcraft), do the quest chain, and get the Clefthoof Hide Leggings (Clefthoof Hide Leggings - Item - World of Warcraft). It's a long chain, but -very- much worth it
2. Run Normal or Heroic Shadow Labyrinth and get Leggings of Assassination (Leggings of Assassination - Item - World of Warcraft)

Feet:
1. Buy The Master's Treads (The Master's Treads - Item - World of Warcraft) from the AH
2. Do the quest "Natural Remedies" (Natural Remedies - Quest - World of Warcraft) for the Studded Green Anklewraps (Studded Green Anklewraps - Item - World of Warcraft)

Fingers:
1. Run Normal or Heroic Sethekk Halls for the Ravenclaw Band Ravenclaw Band - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Pathfinder's Band (Pathfinder's Band - Item - World of Warcraft) from the AH

Trinkets:
1. Run Normal or Heroic Mechanar for Abacus of Violent Odds (Abacus of Violent Odds - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Run Normal or Heroic Black Morass for Hourglass of the Unraveller (Hourglass of the Unraveller - Item - World of Warcraft)

Weapons:
1. Run Normal Magister's Terrace for Sun-forged Cleaver x2 (Sun-forged Cleaver - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Fist of Reckoning x2 (Fist of Reckoning - Item - World of Warcraft) from the AH

Totem:
1. Run Normal Underbog for Totem of the Thunderhead (Totem of the Thunderhead - Item - World of Warcraft)
2. Buy Totem of Impact (Totem of Impact - Item - World of Warcraft) for 15 marks of Thrallmar / Honor Hold

After gearing up, assuming you chose the first option in each item slot: 70 Troll Shaman

That's 998 AP, 23.83% crit chance, and 149 hit rating. If you use the talent tree at the bottom of the link, you will be good to go for Kara!

And you should always prefer option 1 if possible?

[Zins]

Yes, sometimes the second option is too inconvenient for someone looking to gear up quickly or simply inadequate compared to the first

Looks like a Copy/Paste

[Zins]

Not a copy pasta, I spent over an hour working on this cross-referencing Wowhead to make this guide because I'm a long time leecher trying to contribute. You can search the text on google or any other search engine, but it won't turn up any other results.
