[Terenas] Identification of KEY Kara upgrades

[TheDragoon]

I did a bit of research on possible future drops and these are the Karazhan drops that would be good to get since there is not likely a good replacement coming up in future instances. Sorry for the longish list of "key" upgrades, but since I don't already have any of these, it's a bit longer than some others. :)

Tanking:
<strike>Karazhan Trash - Boots of Elusion (no upgrade that I saw until late Tempest Keep)</strike>
Maiden - Barbed Choker of Discipline (best available for a long time)
<strike>Opera or Prince - Eternium Greathelm or Tier 4 piece (Would prefer T4, but Eternium is good, too… no upgrade that I saw until Lady Vashj)</strike>

Healing:
Maiden - Shard of the Virtuous (awesome for pally healing)
Maiden - Bracers of Justice (there are mail drops from Hydross that I doubt I would get due to it being better for shamans. There are also other non-plate healing bracers in Karazhan, but I only listed the one)
Aran - Pauldrons of the Justice-Seeker (there's a drop in SSC from Morogrim, but these are better)
Chess - Legplates of the Innocent (no comparable piece found pre-Hyjal or Black Temple besides T4/T5 that I don't expect to get for healing)
