Arms Warrior PvP Gear Guide for WotLK Classic

The gear list below is following the stat priority of Hit Cap (5%) > Resilience ≥ Strength > Armor Pen > Critical Strike and will include items available exclusively from Wrath of the Lich King Classic Dungeons/Raids, Professions, PvP, and Reputation rewards.

This page only focuses on the best in slot gear for a PvP Warrior. You can learn more about how to leverage your unique skills by reading our full Arms Warrior PvP guide below:

This is a list of items that are considered to be best in each slot for PvP based content. If you are instead looking for a PvE-focused list for either pre-raid or best-in-slot gear, make sure to check out our Warrior gearing hub below. Some PvE gear is used even in PvP, allowing you to use certain items almost all of the time.

Your gemming will change vastly depending on your current gear, team composition and playstyle. When you get Mjolnir Runestone you will want to swap to Fractured Cardinal Ruby until you reach the soft ArP cap (100% Armor Penetration while Mjolnir Runestone proc is active). After that, you will want to prioritize either Strength or Resilience depending on your needs and your playstyle.

• Meta Gem — Relentless Earthsiege Diamond
• Red Gem — Resplendent Ametrine
• Yellow Gem — Rigid King's Amber if not Hit capped, then Mystic King's Amber.
• Blue Gem — Steady Eye of Zul at least 1 for meta gem and any worthy socket bonuses, if not Mystic King's Amber.
