The BoA items are totally worth it. Especially the shoulders and chest for the xp bonus. Add that with rested bonus and you will breeze through levels. The weapon does help improve stats, which of course helps you with leveling.

i have a similar question to Minotaurfeng, I play a war and i am thinking about rolling a druid for tanking/healing what BoA Items would be the best?

I would go with the Devout Aurastone Hammer.
Nice healing mace, and the DPS keeps up with 1 handers until Outlands, at which time non- BoA weapons are easy to get and usually better.
Its what I'm using on my Feral, and has the option of being used for a shaman or any other caster as well.

Foe healing I think
Davout Aurastone Hammer
like what JemiS said.
The trinkets are definitely worth it. Gives good SP and the restoring health and mana is pretty good.
I see most people who get BoA gear that are healers or cloth wearers have
Tattered Dreadmist Shoulders
and
Tattered Dreadmist Robe
. Xp boost like the others said is good. here's a link to all the
heirloom items
, hope this helps.

Personally, I'm leveling my druid pure feral and so I went with the
Exceptional Stormshroud Shoulders
,
Stained Shadowcraft Tunic
,
Repurposed Lava Dredger
(works real nice with the Crusader Enchant) and 2x
Swift Hand of Justice
I find I have no problems tanking stuff my own level and slightly above, for healing I try and keep a second set of non-heirloom items.

Yeah, unfortunately, Ludwig is right. I would have liked the SP on that tho :P
Also, I think the lava dredger is a new BoA weapon, so if you leveled your druid a while ago, it may not have been available to you yet.
Currently, Im L33, so Im pretty curious to see how this weapon will hold up compared to Outlands/Northrend items.

I find the BoA weapons don't hold up all that well past Vanilla WoW, myself.
They're ok, but they aren't as good as other easily obtained weapons.
Just my 2cp.

I've got a question about the Repurposed Lava Dredger: who hell could use it? I'm working on a druid right now, and I'm saving up seals to get the shoulders and chest, but I'm still debating about the item. The leather could easily be used again if I decide to level a rogue or a hunter (or an Enh shaman, but my main's one already, so unlikely to level another) but it may be difficult to justify 95 seals on a weapon that seems like the only other use would be a stat stick for a hunter. Other weapons (Bloodied Arcanite Reaper, Dignified Headmaster's Charge) seem much more like to see use with several toons.

Well apart from hunter, warriors could possibly use it. Or blood DK. It is 2h mace after all. And possibly paladin, but the ArP there is bit wasted stat, but it'd still be better than any of the green and most of the blues you'd find simply because it's base DPS is so much better.
Hunters can't use 2H-maces.

Dredger really isn't
good
for any other class, although other classes could use it.

Well then, never mind. Barely ever played a hunter, and so used to feral stat sticks being usable by hunters as well, I just assumed they could use the Dredger.

Well considering your only choice is the Mace or the Staff and the staff is for casters. Since we can't use 2h axes, that leaves just the mace. I have the mace, and trust me it is worth it. Stick a crusader enchant on it, and you are rolling in pvp land.

Is the 2H really much of a DPS upgrade over any of the 1handers?
Granted, my druid is only 36, but I can't seem to see much of a difference between using a good 2 hander and the 1 handed BoA weapons.
Is it just stats? I know I'm planning on replacing mine with some decent dungeon drops once I hit OL.
