Protection Paladin TBC Pre-Patch BiS Gear Guide
On this page, you will find the best in slot items for your Protection Paladin during the pre-patch of the Burning Crusade.
Gearing Strategy for Protection Paladins in the TBC Pre-Patch
While this list focuses on the best gear possible for players who have been continuously playing Classic, the time we have in the pre-patch is extremely short, so not all this gear will be able to be acquired. Consider some of the alternatives listed including PvP gear, as the ranking requirement is removed from High Warlord/Grand Marshal gear.
Please consider checking out our Classic era pre-raid BiS gearing list as well when figuring out what gear you are looking for, as most of the pieces listed on there are easily farmable.
Naxxramas Protection Paladin BiS
This is the gear we recommend for Protection Paladins in the Naxxramas patch. Naxxramas is the final destination of the original World of Warcraft, and as such carries the best gear and the most difficult bosses.
Paladins Tier 3, Redemption Armor one of the most highly sought after sets in the game but it unfortunately offers very little benefit for Protection and we will not be using it in an optimal set up.
