Shaman Healer Frost Resistance Gear
On this page, you will find the best Frost Resistance gear for your Shaman Healer in WoW Classic. For more gearing advice, please refer to our Shaman Healer Gearing and Best in Slot guide.
Frost Resistance Gear for Restoration Shamans
While doing Naxxramas, you will benefit from using some Frost Resistance (FrostR) gear, specifically for Sapphiron. We list some of the best pieces you can get below, but note that you can get up to 33 extra Frost Resistance from enchants as well!
Because FrostR gear has low or no other stats in general, prioritize using your best normal gear pieces along with some FrostR gear, in order to achieve a balanced setup with 100+ FrostR unbuffed.
Whenever you loot raid gear with Frost Resistance on it, make sure to use it,
as that gear has significant FrostR and other stats, usually Stamina. A notable
piece like this is the Helmet of Ten Storms.
