I was taking a look at
MrRobot
and I put my character there to test and optimize it. All the modifications that the site didi I was already aware of (like some enchants and some gear that I already have). But something confused me: MrRobot is putting Elementium Moebius Band over every heroic tanking ring avaiable, and I've never seen this ring in any guide here on Wowhead of any BiS Pre Raid list. Is this ring that good of MrRobot is getting a little crazy these days?
Thanks for the answers :D
PS: I don't know how to link gear here :(

Check out this
discussion
on tank rings.
Basically, yes the JC ring may barely edge out others (by literally < 5 secondary stat points). If you have too much money, then go for it. However, imho, it's not worth the cost considering how easy other comparable rings are to get.
Thanks for the link YJMark! After looking ar all the rings and reading some topics about rings, I'll finally end up with Therazane's Rep ring and Siamat's drop (Ring of 3 Lights). I'll not bother looking at AH for the JC's ring, which I assume that must be very expensive.
Thanks guys, peace.

Interesting results.
Its always interesting when looking at non armory items. Rings, Necks, Cloaks, and Trinkets, can sometimes produce such interesting results. especially if you value strength and agility simply for their avoidance values.
Cheers,
Hat

It would be better than therazane tanking ring.

Just made 2 recently so prices of mats are:
55 life - 8g each = 440g
4 elementium bars - 20g
4 chimera eyes - 100 g each - 400g
4 dream emerals - 30g each -120g
--------------------------------------------------
940g.
Is that expensive? Not really.
Actually, as a new player, 940g sounds really big to me, as I don't have time to farm like crazy and stuff.

You really do not have to farm like crazy. If you got a proffesion you can earn tons of money in short time by making stuff selling on AH for a higher cost than the material costed to buy from AH.
For more of this check out proffesion forum stickes.
You could also do as you do and tank, get shards and loots. Perhaps do a few quick tol barad dailies every day. Also charge for runs as
hatman
does.
trust me, today 1k gold is nothing really.

Yeah I know my post was a bit exagerated, talking about farm like crazy, but the time I have avaiable for playing is pretty restricted by work+university, so I can barely do the 12 tol barad dailies plus 1 or 2 heroic randons. I'm not complaining about my playing time being so restricted, I'm just saying that for my gameplay style, that amount of gold is pretty big to me, not that big, but still big anyways.
Actually, I'm not having a ring issue anymore, since i bought
Ring of the Battle Anthem
, so i'm using this with
Ring of Three Lights
and I think I'll be fine :D
EDIT: Yay I learned how to link gear, hooray for me!

Not
interesting
at all, with all this stamina stacking even in gem slots.
Not unexpected.....still interesting.

Technically, if you want to value mastery and stamina equally, you'd have to set the value for stamina at 2/3rds of mastery in your weightings, since mastery is worth more itemization points point for point. The way your weights have it now, a 40 mastery gem is worth less than a 60 stam gem, with a regal (20 mastery/30 stamina) in between the 2.

Wow, this is one of those points were i just want to hit myself for not thinking about that.
When I wake up tomorrow I will change around some of the presets I have.
Thanks,

Incidentally, this is why your presets were always telling you to gem pure stam :P

Now just switch the blue with
Signet of the Elder Council
(reforge haste to dodge), and you are golden.
Really? Actually I put them both on the Item Comparison and even with the higher STA and Mastery and reforged Haste, the
Ring of Three Lights
seemed smoother than
Signet of the Elder Council
, because of a solid parry rating and the STR.
Maybe I'm wrong, and if I am, I hope you guys correct me :D
