Gearing up at 80

[RottenApple82]

<p>So I've been 80 for about a week now, I have 3 T1 gloves,legs,helm, sedition, and a 1400mit shield. The rest of the gear is from random dungeons I have 53.9%/49.3% . 10.7k Health.</p><p>I am having issues in TSO obviously, no groups really want me, mostly because undergeared healers would rather get an uber geared tank.</p><p>Normally I run with an INQ/Monk/Dirge in the group, and we can do a lot of TSO, but when they're not around...I can't find a group, usually they refuse to listen when I tell them I need 2 healers, think they can solo heal it...then things go south.</p><p>So I guess my question is, aside from the Broker, are there any quests that might reward good accessory items for tanking?</p><p>Right now I am out in JW going through all the quest chains I can find.</p><p>Oh and...I hear people say 55/55, or saying they're really well geared and are 60/60 or w/e....I mean is it that much of a world of difference? or should I just be stacking more Health try and get it up past 11k?</p>

<p>Persist on your t1 gear if you can't get groups/raids to go to the more tricky spots. The same zones ur getting shards to get ur t1 gear at can then be done to get shards for ur t2 gear. With 3 t1 items and 3 t2 items and none of us having mythicals, myself and two lev 80 friends took down the 85^^^ named mob needed in edgewater drains on my fabled weapon line so you'll not need two healers and can usually take a serious beating even solo with the life taps.</p>
