Death Knight Gear Progression for Levels 68 to 80 – Belts
Here is a general progression of plate item belts for a DPS Death Knight in Northrend for World of Warcraft.
The Girdle of Forceful Annihilation from the five-man quest in Dragonblight can be obtained at level 71, carrying you for two levels. At level 73, you can opt to purchase the Girdle of the Howling Berserker from the auction house, or wait a level and run Gundrak for the quest reward Clasp of the Fallen Demi-God. This item will take you to level 78, where you have a few options for upgrades. If you’re not able to run Gundrak, the Rhino-Tail Girdle (a level 76 quest reward from Sholazar Basin) is a solid choice until you hit 78.
