Something I hadn’t thought of and thinking of doing is spamming the ‘free’ +16s to get some cheeky 486 gear.
Basically I’ve been a chicken (in terms of tanking) on my main character Ishgoat in terms of tanking anything higher than +15s but I tried a +16 BRH and honestly it was easier than some +11 and +12 keys I did before.
This gives me some malicious idea of maybe spamming +16 of BRH and Atal to get my crafted stuff higher. I know I don’t ‘need’ it because people have done +20s at 450 but I like the crutch for carrying when PuGs go bad.
Anyone try this strategy? Has it worked?
You can probably do 18s instead and then you are getting heroic track at the end of dungeon and mythic track in the vault.

Yeah just do 18s. Frequently fewer human affixes. /cough

If you’re gonna do 18s though, you might as well do 20s so you queue with better players.
Or queue for 22s for RIO increase.
I find the fastest way to gear right now is full clear Heroic Raid with the Fyraak kill quest. That gives 3 476 crafted pieces for about 4 hours of effort then w/e drops you get out of raid, maybe 2 or 3 if you’re lucky.

I take it a little slower than some but I typically start with easy champ gear while farming flightstones to start.
Fresh 70 → +9 (champ, drake, flightstones)
@460 → +11 (champ, wyrm, flightstones)
@470 → +17 (hero, aspect, flightstones)
@475 → +18s (myth vault)
Do at least one easy +18 each week. You can definite do it if you are doing +16s.
Getting a mythic track gear in vault every week will make you really overgeared and you won’t have to craft as many pieces either.

Just do what I do, put 19 in the search box and see what groups you can find in the 18-20 range. I just look for the better looking teams.
This one I outgear on Ishgoat at the moment. Capped on Wyrm crest.
Thanks for the advices all!
I did do a +18 DHT with guildies but we failed it.
I will try push tiny bit higher!

So basically just do 24s to cover everything, OP
