This list contains the best gear you can get on an individual slot basis. Keep in mind that tertiaries and other factors can influence the overall picture.
Great Vault items from Mythic+ are not listed here, as they are not targetable due to the RNG nature of the Vault. Mythic+ items are included at the maximum item level you can upgrade them to.

Mythic+ Gear BiS List for Discipline Priest
THis list contains the best gear possible from only Mythic+ and the creation catalyst. This is a great place to start on a relatively new character, as you can infinitely grind out these items from Mythic+. This list is not, however, the optimal setup overall as that will involve items from multiple sources.

Trinkets for Discipline Priests
The ranking system is as follows:
- S Tier: The strongest and most generally useful trinkets; these are always good choices.
- A Tier: These trinkets are slightly weaker than the S Tier traits, but are still solid choices.
- B Tier: A below-average trinket that should be picked only in the absence of an S or A Tier trinket.
- C Tier: A weak trinket that provides very little healing output or other utility and should be avoided if possible.
- D Tier: A trinket that has potential negative effects that can cause more issues than just being a bad trinket and should always be avoided.

DPS Trinkets
In some cases, specifically Mythic Plus content most often, Discipline Priest players will look towards utilizing DPS trinkets to push their overall DPS contribution further. Damage from DPS Trinkets DOES NOT contribute to healing and is utilized strictly for DPS purposes only. It is highly recommended to make sure you are comfortable with the healing requirements of the dungeons you are attempting first before considering equipping any DPS trinkets.
Crafted Gear and Embellishments for Discipline Priests
Spark of Dreams
Spark of Dreams is a time-gated resource used in all high-end
crafting. Be careful when deciding what you want to craft with these sparks, as
there is no way to get them back once an item is crafted.
Embellishments
Embellishments are special effects that are either found on crafted pieces by default or can be added to crafted pieces during the crafting process. A character can have two embellishments equipped at any time. The following are the embellishments we recommend you utilize:
Allied Wristguards of Time Dilation - This is a solid Embellishment if you are looking for the highest overall contribution after early tier when low on sockets. This will eventually be outvalued by Elemental Lariat at high socket counts, but will provide a larger bonus at the beginning of the tier.
Elemental Lariat - Elemental Lariat is an overall solid embellishment which will get stronger as you gain more sockets in your gear.
Crafting Strategy
When your Spark of Dreamss are limited at the beginning of the
tier, we recommend being very careful how you spend them. Our current
recommendation is to use your first Spark to craft either
Allied Wristguards of Time Dilation or
Elemental Lariat, depending on what other gear you have available.
For your second Spark of Dreams, we recommend crafting whatever one between Lariat and Allied Wristguards you did not craft first.
If you have 2 embellishments crafted, utilizing your sparks on any gear slot that is a lower item level, or you have not had good luck with is a valuable use of excess Sparks.
Unique Items
Imbued Frostweave Slippers provide a small amount of mana regen while worn. As a result, in any situaiton where these boots are the same Ilvl as your other options and you can utilize the mana provided, you should wear them. In any case, where you have alternative boots with better stats at a higher item level, these are safe to drop.
Iridal, the Earth's Master /
Vakash, the Shadowed Inferno /
Dreambinder, Loom of the Great Cycle are all weapons with additional DPS effects on them. As these DPS effects do not count against the weapons stat budget, it is recommended to always utilize one of these weapons if available provided you are not dropping item level to use them.
Ouroboreal Necklet provides a nature damage shield when you deal fire damage and a fire damage shield when you deal nature damage. While we can technically proc the nature damage shield via
Purge the Wicked being fire damage, the effect is not very strong. It is recommended to just wear a neck with better stats.
Other Sockets in Dragonflight
In Dragonflight, only your Helm, Rings, Necks, Bracers, and Belts can have a socket on them. When a piece of gear in that slot drops, there is a chance for it to already have a socket in it.
