Ok, I’d been pondering writing something like this for a while, so I thought it was about time I got on with it!
Having just joined a new guild who are raiding the t6 content, my gear isn’t up to scratch. I was just starting SSC before moving to them, so I have a lot of catching up to do. This means I’ve got a lot of re-gemming and enchanting of items to do - both old and new.
There are so many decisions to make I thought I’d better make a list of the best choices for me, so here I am, showing them to you.
Head
Glyph of Power (requires revered with The Sha’tar)
Shoulders
Greater Inscription of Discipline (requires exalted with The Aldor)/ Inscription of Discipline (requires honored with The Aldor)
or
Greater Inscription of the Orb (requires exalted with The Scryers)/ Inscription of the Orb (required honored with The Scryers)
Back
Subtlety
Chest
Restore Mana Prime
Wrist
Spellpower
or
Restore Mana Prime
Hands
Major Spellpower
or
Spell Strike
or
Blasting
Legs
Runic Spellthread
Feet
Vitality
Finger (enchanters only)
Spellpower
Weapons
Spellpower
Have I missed anything out? Anyone got any suggestions on what should or shouldn’t be there, then leave it in the comments and I’ll amend accordingly

My Balance Druid is probably spec’d, gear’d, and enchanted the best he can possibly get for T6 content. In fact, I’ve been thru all of Mt Hyjal, 4 Black Temple bosses, SSC, Mags, etc, and I have not had a drop fall that is better than what I have. Look me up on the armory - Hoots Alexstraza
I’m not trying to brag, I just put allot of time into making my balance the best possible and it works. Not only do I battle rez when needed, Innervate our healers, de-curse and remove poison, and heal, but I’m usually always in the Top 5 damage and Dps on 25 man raids.
If you want to look at the only Balance that I have found even better than myself, look-up Smuggles (Horde Balance). He littereally kicks my butt whenever we spar. I hate him.

Blasting isn’t much good, really. You should always gem/enchant for damage over crit, and pick up crit from your gear.
Also, for your chest I would go with +6 to all stats. You get more mana, and with the spirit and intellect based mana regen, and intensity and dreamstate, you get nearly 6 mp5, more stamina, a little spell damage and various other goodies. I feel it’s a much better enchant.
I also took Fortitude for my boots, rather than vitality. With the spirit-based mana regen changes in patch 2.4, you shouldn’t really need to enchant for mp5.

Hmm, didn’t mean to sound like I was lecturing - I did some research and that’s what I think is best. It may be that your needs are different to mine!
