Grandfathered Items

[Turambar]

What are the most impactful grandfathered items for the 19 bracket for Cata? I saw a list of items on another thread but it seemed a lot of the items were not as good as some of the more commonly used BIS's. Was wondering which ones are must gets, especially for warrior and priest. Thanks for any help on this subject. Just want to make sure I don't miss out on an important piece of gear.

You might as well grab them all there is time if only 2 chars

for any cloth class inferno robe and jutebraid are must haves

My big question is enchanting tbf.. Are we still gonna be able to enchant the Argent Dawn / naxx enchants after pre-patch release?
Wich enchants should I swap out before then?
I noticed 6+ stats on chest becomes level-gated, when I checked on beta.

That level-gated enchant business left me so confused. I don't even remember that happening back when, did it? Level 25 too, instead of 35 like most expected changes. Weird.

Feels like we might still be in the dark a bit on what's gonna be BiS if these end up being new changes.

To OP, my suggestion is to look up what stat changes look like in cata for the GF'd items you might want and going from there x

Here are some examples for my priest, on Cata beta:

I'm not sure what I'll replace chest with. And I'm not sure wether we'll be able to apply the active enchants post-release.

I wish my druid didn't have t he 'Character copy failed'-bug to it, as I have a much wider set of builds to look at.

Hopefully this is a little helpful, even though they are just screenshotted examples of what it looks like, without any answers

[Enchant Chest - stats +6] Will be swapped with +4.

The rest of the enchants pretty much stay the same! According to beta currently.

ZG-enchants are still locked behind level 55

Shoulders don't really give 39 spell power. That's just a tooltip bug, with heirlooms right now! They give 5+ SP.

Defias Chest is removed when they overhaul Deadmines. Glacial Stone is grandfathered as well as Seal of Wrynn.
