This is a quick reference list for Hunters, Death Knights, Enhancement Shaman, Ret Pally, Rogues, and Warriors. I grouped this in two ways, where it drops and its stats. Ideally a fresh 80 starts at the bottom of the list and works their way up the list to better and better gear.

Gear Score for trinkets can be misleading. Double equip is preferred over a "use" trinket
