Blizzard really went over the top with the loot in Outland-- just when you think the loot can't get any phatter, it does. But early on in one of the first instances there, a lot of players are chuckling about this Warrior belt.
Name: Tenacious Defender (Tenacious D for short)
Type: Rare Plate Belt
Armor: 491
Abilities:
- This is one of the first socketed items you'll come across, which means you can put jewels in it for extra abilities. This one takes two red jewels, and when they're both in, you get +3 Resilience.
- +15 Strength, +14 Agility, +19 Stamina
- Oh, and one more thing: in the tooltip for the item, we're told that "It has the power... to move you." Yes, this is a sly Blizzard reference to the band that wrote the Greatest Song in the World (which isn't actually anything like this song), Tenacious D. Jack Black and Kyle Gass' legendary music lives in Outland! A few players think it would be nice to eventually see a Pickaxe of Destiny, but I'd get more benefit from a Junior Western Bacon Chee. That's a JUNIOR western bacon chee-- I'm trying to watch my figure.
Getting Rid of It: It's BOP, and sells for a measly 2g 40s 92c to vendors. I'm not sure if socketing it raises its price (because I haven't socketed anything yet), though-- anyone have insight on that one?

Socketing doesn't make the item sell for more, so be careful what gems you stick in those sockets--pretty much a money dump when time comes to vendor.

OMG, that dropped for me not an hour ago. What a coincidence! And I didn't even understand the Tenacious D reference! It is rather fabulous, and I can't wait to stick some jewels in there.

My personal Blizz reference was the engineering trainer in Zangarmarsh who is wearing the Deepdive helmet and is named "Mack Diver". Hehe.

Been looking for this for about 8 runs, finally got it last night. Along with 3 other blues in only 1 run each of ramparts and Furnace. Last night was a good night to be a tank.
