Mists of Pandaria Classic Frost Mage Gear and Best in Slot
On this page, you will find the best PvE gear and best in slot items for your Frost Mage in Mists of Pandaria Classic.
Frost Mage Raid Gear Set
Welcome to our guide on the Best-in-Slot (BiS) gear for 
Frost
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 is very likely to update a few times, due to the WoWSims simulation
still being in Alpha state.
This is the stat priority for Frost Mage, following our Frost Mage Stats and Stat Priority Guide:
- Intellect
- Hit Rating = Expertise Rating (15% Hit Cap!)
- Haste Rating
- Mastery Rating
- Critical Strike Rating
For more information on the best available gems and enchants, check out our Enchants and Gems Guide. You can find the Frost Mage Pre-Raid Best in Slot in our dedicated Frost Mage Pre-Raid Best in Slot Gear guide.
Reforging
Although we provide recommended reforging in the lists below, we also recommend installing the Reforgelite Classic addon to easily calculate your optimal reforging with any gear setup. It will automatically reforge your gear to your prefered stats in a couple clicks.
