Gnomeregan (Phase 2) Shaman Tank Best in Slot

This list is made up of Gnomeregan raid drops, world drops, profession gear, quest rewards and dungeon drops.

The Electromantic Devastator's Mail set is recommended, as it has useful bonuses, especially the 3-set bonus which grants a 5% chance on melee attack to gain 100 Mana. This can be quite helpful on prolonged fights and also when dual-wield tanking, as you will be attacking much more often!

Items marked as (EHP) increase your survivability rather than your DPS, which will not be very helpful to you when survivability is no longer a concern deeper into farm and while leveling, while (DPS) items can be used for both tanking and DPS, usually at a small survivability loss when compared to pure tanking items.
