If you are new to the expansion, welcome. I've been getting better gear and such lately. I am currently waiting on a dungeon finder dungeon, and I thought I would take the time to write a guide for beginners on general gearing.
Each piece of gear has an item level associated with it. This item level will assess how prepared you are for future content. If your ilvl is not high enough, in some cases, the game will not let you complete harder dungeons.
Cataclysm Normals: (Entry: 318 Exit: 333)
You should complete Cataclysm normals until all of your gear is item level 333. At ilvl 329, you can begin heroics. Get used to normals so that you can learn the additional difficulties of heroics.
Cataclysm Heroics: (Entry 333 Exit: 346)
Heroic gear is ilvl 346. Earn valor points to spend towards 359 gear. 359 can also be acquired by earning exalted with the Cataclysm factions and purchased from their respective quartermasters. You should then be ready to raid!
