What kind of gears should you have for your WoW classes? With 10 classes in total, it can get quite confussing if you're new to WoW game. Different classes need to look for certain stats in gears whether it's strenght, stamina, agility, intellect or spirit. And different classes can also wear different types of gears in plates, mails, leathers or cloth. Event within a certain class such a druid, due to different talent trees, it is crucial that you get the right stats in leather gears to let you play at the maximun potential of that class and spec.
Druid class can only wear as high as leather for gears. There are Balance, Feral, and Restoration spec for druid class. Here it can get quite confussing as to what stats you should look for in gears if you don't know your class well.
Balance is mainly a dps spell casting class. The stats you want for this spec in both gears and weapon are intellect (which is your mana pool), stamina (your health), and spell power bonus (let you do more spell damage then it should've). Critical is always a bonus too, but you mainly want to look for those 3 stats. Intellect, stamina, and spell power. Some people collect cloth gears for balance spec because cloth gears usually have the highest stats in those 3 department and more. If you're in a party, with a good tank and healer, you don't need to worry about your defence or your health. Because all you doing in standing in the distant away from harm's way and cast your range spells. Always stay in Moonkin form for dps when you're high enough for it. It has added armor bonus and increase your critical rating.
Feral druid can be neither a bear tank or do melee damage at cat form. For a bea
r tank, you want stamina, strenght, dodge rating as primary. Agility is good for you as well because it is your critical bonus and extra armor bonus. Since you won't be able to find too many strenght, stamina, and agility stats combo in gears until you hit Outland, you best stick with stamina, strenght stats for tanking for below 58 level. "Beast" set in Outland gears has all these 3 stats in gears. It is a good gear for feral druid if you don't do a lot of instant runs. Dodge rating is important as well because Druids can't block, they can only dodge at enemey's attacks. Most of the good stats gears with dodge rating only come from dungeon drop unfortunately. And most Outland and Northrend leather gears or weapons automatically come with attack power in gears, so it is always a bonus.
Cat form however you want agility and stamina as primary at lower levels. Think of cat form as a rogue. Agility of course is your critical bonus and your armor bonus. With high agility, you can do a lot of melee damage in cat form, a lot more so then bear form. Strenght is your attack power, which translates into your melee damage. But again at lower level, it's hard to find gears with sgility, stamina and strenght combo until you hit Outland and Northrend. So you best stick with gears that have agility and stamina combo at low level.

Cat form is design to do massive amount of melee damage, bear form is for tanking. And like most tanking class, you're design to produce aggro, hold the aggro, and taking damage. Bears aren't design to do a lot of damage. Most poeple will wear a combination of strenght/stamina, and agility/stamina gears at low level, because they figured no sense of collecting multiple sets of gears since you're leveling fast at low level. Some people however will collect 2 sets of gears for the 2 forms. Strenght/stamina for bear form, and agility/stamina for cat form. Also, DON'T forget to work on your weapon skill for feral spec, because your weapon skill will reflect the over all damage you do. The higher your weapon skill at, the more damage you'll do.
Restoration is a healing class. As a healing class, you definitely want intellect, spir
it, stamina, spell power, and mana regeneration in gears. Intellect is your mana, spirit is your mana and health regeneration, stamina is your health. Mana regeneration gears will state the amount of "mana per 5 sec". It is helpful during combat for gaining your mana back. Where as spirit only applies to health & mana regeneration out of combat, or mana regeneration in combat only if you stop casting spell for about 5 sec.

I've seen a lot of resto druid and balance druid wearing cloths instead of leather because cloth gears are usually higher in those stats then leathers. With a good tank and a good party, you won't need to worry about your armor in dungeon, therefore having cloth gears can be beneficial since you'll last longer in mana pool and be able to heal more. You should always stay in tree form for healing when you're high enough for it, because you'll heal a lot more and use less mana in the end. Visit other blog for healer's role in a dungeon run party.
With the dual spec now available in WoW, you really want to collect 2 sets of different gears especially if you are dual spec in feral/ balance, or feral/ restoration. Changing to the right set of gears according to the current spec you're in. You can get away with one set of gear if you're dual spec in balance/ restoration, because the stats you want for gears are similar enough that you can get away with it. So. I hope this overview of Druid class gears will help you maximize your class potential even more with the proper gears on when you're playing WoW.
