Hey,
I just wanted another druid's opinion on which is better/more practical.
Merciless gladiator's maul or earthwarden?
My druid does have the required def rating, but I am seriously lacking stamina and armour...
I don't quite have the rep to get earthwarden, and do have the honor to by the maul. But i could use that honor for a new belt and bracers.

Okay, I should rephrase my question... For tanking which is better?
Just looking at the two the maul looks better (raw stats, dps and resil). But the armor on the earthwarden is very appealing.

Are you fing serious? EW OR Merciless for tanking? Fing 'ell. EW for tanking. Doesn't even need an explanation.

Stop gemming for +def.
Drop the +def enchant.
Can't wait for the day that all druids learn that defense is not a great decision for them because you should be stacking other stats instead of defense and the way leather items are set up (and accessories) its easier to reach uncrittability by resilience then stack armor > stam > agil.

Get the shattered sun pendant of resolve to replace your neck. If you have the honor to get the maul then you should get the merciless dragonhide shoulders instead. Get rid of chest guard of the talon. Get merciless dragonhide chest if you can (if not get heavy clefthoof for tanking because even though it sucks its still better than your current chest). Get merciless dragonhide leggings. Get vindicator's dragonhide boots (or guardian's if you have the arena rank). Get the badge armor ring (forget the name). Get commendation from heroic mgt and drop your adamantite figurine. Get EW.
Your number one priority from the time you reach the outlands is how can I get EW the fastest. Its just that damn good. For those just starting out on the path to EW. First get to honored by turning in plant parts (keep the quest starting plant rewards from that quest till after you are over honored). Then go back and do all of the CE quests (do no quests at all before honored) in HP, Zangar, BEM, and Netherstrom. That should take you through revered then based on your gear either rerun SV (N) until you get the rep or rerun SP (H) and UB (H) until you get the rep.
