Frost Resistance Gear for Retribution Paladins
Having good Frost Resistance on DPS players will make completing Naxxramas, specifically the Sapphiron encounter, much easier, as he deals 300 damage per second unmitigated damage, which quickly adds up over the course of the fight.
You can check some of the best "pure" Frost Resistance gear options below, but remember to not go overboard, as you will still need DPS stats in order to deal significant damage to the undead dragon!
Ideally, you will be able to mix and match some of the gear below with your own optimized gear in order to reach over 100 Frost Resistance unbuffed.
