Frost Resistance Gear for Balance Druids
While doing Naxxramas, you will benefit from using some Frost Resistance (Frost Resistance) gear. This is particularly relevant when fighting Sapphiron, as you are likely to die to his frost damage aura, otherwise.
Below, we list some of the best pieces you can get with Frost Resistance, but note that you can get up to 33 extra Frost Resistance from enchants as well!
Since Frost Resistance gear has low or no other stats in general, try using your best normal gear pieces along with some Frost Resistance gear, in order to achieve a balanced setup with 100+ Frost Resistance unbuffed.
