That's a lot of ilevel 245 gear for an alleged 10 man tank. Plus, even if he was pure 10 man, if everyone in the raid isn't, your point is irrelevant about not having access to 25 man gear. Even if that guy didn't have any 25 man gear, it doesn't mean he didn't benefit from it. I count 4 25 man pieces, and if every player in the raid had 4 pieces that aren't significant (as you put it) like that, you're coming from a different place than us. It will take more for you to convince me that you really know more about 10 man raiding/gearing challenges than those of us that live it.

Certainly there is a time spent in game and time spent raiding difference between your guild and ours. I'd love to have that alts gear. We raid with a lot more than 10 people, as we roster for inclusion. It does make it impossible to get every raider to BiS gear for what is accessible. We're certainly not a "hardcore" 10 man raiding guild, but we are one of the best 10 man guilds on our realm, despite having a larger pool of raiders than you would really need.
