Blizzard seems to be finally bringing tanking gear into play, with BoA items.

Latest additions are:
Weapon:
Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver As the heirloom version of Skullforge Reaver (sword main hand)

Cloak:
Ripped Sandstorm Cloak As the heirloom version of Sandstorm Cloak

Armor:
Burnished Breastplate of Might As the heirloom version of Breastplate of Might (plate chest)
Burnished Helm of Might As the heirloom version of Helm of Might (plate head)
Burnished Legplates of Might As the heirloom version of Legplates of Might (plate legs)
Burnished Pauldrons of Might As the heirloom version of Pauldrons of Might (plate shoulder)

Misc:
Burnished Dark Iron Ring As the heirloom version of Dark Iron Ring (ring)

Note about the ring: not sure if this is really going to be a tanking gear, as the Vanilla Dark Iron ring is an agility item, but there is also Heavy Dark Iron Ring which is actually a tanking item, but with the Heavy prefix, which is most probably the case.

TANKING PLATE (paladins, warriors, death knights)

Using these items and enchants would be the best way to level a plate tanking class.
It is not known where the BoA legs and second ring come from yet. At this time they are not available.

So with the new Battle.net form of BoA's, do we have confirmation that Heirloom items WILL indeed be cross-realm compatable or is that still a no?

Note: I am NOT on the PTR, so I really have no idea.

I purchased this along with the rest of the set (with the exception of the Dark Iron heilroom ring)

Seems like Blizzard took the lazy way to code this. It's a copy/paste of the Valor. Just swap stats and voila. Tanking heilrooms!

You can purchase chest, shoulders, and the sword using either Justice Points or Champion's Seals. Cost the same as the other Wrath heilrooms. Even although they were implemented in patch 4.1.0, months after Cataclysm, the max level for chest, shoulders, and the sword only go up to 80.

Helm/cloak can be purchased from guild rewards. 1-85.

I'm trying to find out where I can purchase the Burnished Dark Iron Ring.

Was just at the heirloom vendor at the Tournament grounds and they sell the new shoulders and chest for 60 tokens a piece.

Having all Argent Tournament dailies unlocked, doing each of them, and choosing the Champion's Purse results in gaining 14 each day. It takes 60 seals to get any Chest or Helm heirloom (as well as the Bloodsoaked Skullforge Reaver , Venerable Dal'Rend's Sacred Charge , or aBalanced Heartseeker : the only weapons for 60 seals).

To get a chest piece, helm, and 60-seal heirloom weapon, it will take 13 days of doing each daily, using this logic :

60 Seal heirloom takes 5 days to gain, 70 seals are gained in the process.
Buying a 60 seal heirloom after 5 days leaves you with 10 seals left towards the next heirloom.
Four days nets 56 seals, with the 10 you had remaining from the previous heirloom, you will have 66.
Buying your second heirloom will leave you with 6 extra seals towards your next heirloom.
Add this to another 4 days (and another 56 seals) and you come up to 62 seals.
Buying your third heirloom on the 13th day will leave you with 2 seals left over.

This is easily proven by the following : 3 heirlooms at 60 seals each = 180 seals needed.
14 seals are gained each day. 180/14=12.85 days. Considering you can't earn more than 14 seals any given day, you round up the 12.85 days to 13.

So, in the case of the new tanking heirlooms, you could have all non-guild reward heirlooms in 13 days, with out ever setting foot in a bad PUG for Justice Points!

How much does the legs cost?

BOA Gear:
I have talked to a GM and found out the following from them...

Can not be transferred to ther Servers even though it is Binds to Battle.net Account
You can transfer it between the opposing, as long as it is the same Server
If you have multiple WOW accounts you can transfer them to another one of you Characters as long as it is the same Server

I wish since it was BOA you could move you BOA gear to another Server, the only was to do so is to have it on your Character and transfer them ($25.00 US) to the Server that you desire to have them on.
