Fire Mage Raid Gear Set

Welcome to our guide on the Best-in-Slot (BiS) gear for FireFire Mage! Here, you will find recommendations to help you optimize your gear for maximum damage and performance in raids and dungeons. Please note, that this BiS list might change a few times, due to the WoWSims simulation still being in Alpha state.

This is the stat priority for Fire Mage, following our Fire Mage Stats and Stat Priority Guide:

  1. Intellect
  2. Hit Rating = Expertise Rating (15% Hit Cap!)
  3. Critical Strike Rating
  4. Haste Rating
  5. Mastery Rating
