Restoration Druid Pre-Raid Best in Slot List

This is the gear we recommend for Restoration Druids before you have access to gear from raids such as Karazhan.

The idea behind this list is to display some of the best gear you can get from quests and dungeons, following the basic stat priority of getting lots of Healing Power, Spirit, and Intellect. For more information on the stats that you should be looking for, check out the stats page listed below.

Restoration Druid PvE Stats

If your character is ready to jump into raiding content, then see our current best in slot list below.

Pre-Raid Best in Slot Table

Some of the gear listed can be expensive, or hard to obtain in the case of Heroic dungeon gear, so do not be afraid of going straight into raiding at 70, as it should be easy enough to do many raid bosses in questing gear!
