Of course, it was cleared in 463-ish gear by the world top guilds. But they all play perfectly. We make a lot of mistakes (myself included), so having that extra gear buffer means we can recover from a bit of standing in fire, slow chains meeting etc, instead of having one mistake mean a wipe.
See if you can aim for a minimum of 463 in every slot, plus a few 476 or 489 items to bring your average up to 470.
Here is an excellent gear list.
The people who currently have 470 ilvl are (according to armory -- of course, some people might have logged out in pvp/offspec gear, send me a message if so):
- Meelo (483)
- Whimpie (476)
- Savik (474)
- Autumni (474)
- Vorpel (473)
- Argoth (470)
A number of people are on 466 and 467. If you are lower on gear then we may have to sit you out if another player is available. We have been approached for a joint guild run by another guild in a similar situation to us, so this is a realistic possibility.
A few pro tips:
- Run LFR every week, it goes pretty smoothly now that people know the fights. You can try to optimize your DPS at the same time. 15% chance of 476 item from each boss (or 483 items from Heart of Fear and MV end boss). T14 available from second half of Heart of Fear.
- 489 necks and rings only require Honored rep with Klaxxi (which you get just from clearing Dread Wastes normal quests) and Golden Lotus (a few boring dailies).
- 476 boots guaranteed for your first kill of Sha of Anger; plus you can kill it once each week for a shot at another 476 item.
- 483 items can be obtained from Arena. You don't have to be good, it matches you with people of a similar skill level to yourself. Winning 10 games 2 weeks in a row will get you a bit of gear - maybe allow 2 hours a week for this.
- Keep an eye out on the auction house for BOE 476 items.
