Easy to get gears for a leveling holy priest (level 70-74)

In a previous post I detailed my build and glyph choices for a leveling DPS/holy priest in northrend. In this post I will tell you about my choices of gears for him from level 70 to level 74.

I did not raid much during BC so most my gears are either quest blues or from special events like the scourge invasion and Halloween quests. Unlike the raiding holy priests who have T5-T6 gears and aren't expect to completely upgrade their garbs until level 78-80. I found almost everything in northrend was a comparable upgrade for my priest. With this said I still kept a few pieces of BC purples such as the mooncloth set for healing as the MP5 on these items are superior than most of the below DPS items.

All items listed here are blue. I found these to be easily obtainable without extraordinary efforts. However a few of these are drop items from instance bosses may require multiple instance runs to obtain.

1. Chest:
   Mystic Frostwoven Robe,available at level 74, this is a tailor made BoE blue. If you are not a tailor you can buy this off AH, cost between 60-100 gp
2. Head:
   Reinforced Velvet Helm, drop from Prince Keleseth in Utgarde keep. Requires level 70 to wear.
   
3. Hand:
   Gloves of Banished Infliction, available at level 74. This is an reward for the quest Don't Forget the Eggs! in the instance Azjol-Nerub
   
4. Waist:
   Wrap of Vigorous Destruction, reward for the group quest Sarathstra, Scourge of the North group quest in Dragonblight. The quest is level 75(group) but you can get it earlier if you find a willing group to run this with you. THere is no level requirement for equiping this.
   
5. Feet:
   Exquisite Spider-Silk Footwraps, available at level 74. This item drops off Krik'thir the Gatewatcher who is the first boss in the instance Azjol-Nerbu.
   Attuned Crystalline Boots, drops off Keristrasza from the Nexus, drop rate is 34% and requires level 71 to use.
   
6. Ring:
   Ring of Decimation, quest reward for Ingvar Must Die! in Utgarde keep. The quest is level 71 but you can get the quest as early as level 68. There is no level requirement for equiping this.
   
7. Neck:
   Necklace of Calm Skies, quest reward for Disarmament in Utgarde keep. The quest is level 71 but you can get the quest as early as level 68. There is no level requirement for equiping this.
8. Shoulder:
   Mystic Frostwoven Shoulders, available at level 73, this is a tailor made BoE blue. If you are not a
   tailor you can buy this off AH, cost about 100 gp on my server.
   
9. Cloak:
   Cloak of the Moon, available at level 74, this is a tailor made BoE blue. If you are not a tialor you can buy this off AH, cost about 100 gp on mine.
10. Wrist:
    Wraps of the San'Layn, quest rward for A Score to Settle in Utgarde keep. The quest is level 71 but you can get the quest as early as level 68. There is no level requirement for equiping this.
11. Weapon:
    Life-Staff of the Web Lair, drops off Hadronox or the second boss from Azjol-Nerub. The drop rate is 34% which means this may take a few runs to get.
    
12. Wand:
    Wand of Shimmering Scales,drops off Grand Magus Telestra in The Nexus. The drop rate is 35% which means this may take a few runs to get.
    
13. Trinkets:
    Horn of the Herald, quest reward for Return to Atuik in Holwing Fjord. You get to choose between a DPS or a MP5 trinket for this quest. There is another quest reward called Sailor's Kotted Charm from a quest called The Jig is Up in Howling Fjord which offers identical sets of rewards. You can elect to take one DPS, one MP5, two MP5 or two DPS trinket. I see advantages in any configuration. Personally I took 1 DPS 1 MP5.
