Equipment will be the main source of your character’s power, contributing the biggest bulk of your stats. It is therefore very important that you choose the correct equipment for each slot — commonly referred to as “best in slot” equipment – to maximize your power. This guide will cover the best items for each slot for Feral Tank Druids in the current phase of Cataclysm Classic.
This section is going to focus on what items are going to be best if you’re gearing up to get raid-ready or otherwise don’t have access to raids yet. For a BiS list that includes gear you would attain from raids, check out the PvE Feral Tank Druid Best in Slot Gear Guide.

I've been playing WoW since beta with some breaks here and there. I'm a semi-hardcore to hardcore raider that focuses on retail mainly. I'm a big fan of giant dragons and am excited for all that Dragonflight will have to offer.
