Holy Paladin Healing Gear and Best in Slot — Season 4
On this page, you will find the best gear and best in slot items for your Holy Paladin in World of Warcraft Season 4.

BiS Gear
In Modern WoW, there is no definitive BiS list for gearing. Too many variables impact which gear is best and which equipment you should aim for. That being said, resources do exist, such as the QuestionablyEpic website which can help you decide which gear to farm, what to select from your weekly Great Vault, and even what to equip from the items in your bags. More information about this website and other resources for simulating can be found on our dedicated simulations page:
It is important to note that the gear listed below specifically focuses on maximizing your healing output. In Mythic+, you may opt to drop mastery in favor of other stats, which would allow you to output more damage. If you are interested in reading about the stat priority depending on the form of content, please visit our dedicated stats page:
The below lists will also assume that you are able to obtain the highest item level of the specific piece, which often means completing Mythic Raid or obtaining the item through your weekly great vault. In general, you will want to aim for the highest item level pieces you can get your hands on before then aiming to acquire what is considered the "BiS" items. Continue to consult QuestionablyEpic as much as possible throughout the gearing process.

Best Gear To Spend Bullions On For Holy Paladin
Season 4 offers a way to target specific, powerful items with the new Antique Bronze Bullion. Here are the best items to spend your Bullions on in Dragonflight Season 4.
- Ominous Chromatic Essence
- Screaming Black Dragonscale
- Fyrakk's Tainted Rageheart - Mythic+
- Vakash, the Shadowed Inferno
Best Items to Upgrade in Dragonflight Season 4
When deciding what to upgrade, you will want to start with a weapon, followed by trinkets and any leech pieces or items you won't see yourself replacing for a long time. Your theoretical order would look something like this:
- Vakash, the Shadowed Inferno
- Ominous Chromatic Essence
- Heartfire Sentinel's Brigandine
Best Way to Spend Sparks as Holy Paladin
While you can craft any gear with sparks, you will often gain the most power from crafting a one-handed weapon first. After that, there are a few competitive options. Allied Wristguard of Companionship is your strongest embellishment and should be crafted first. After this, there are multiple competitive options, but generally you will want to craft Elemental Lariat.
Outside of these items, you should aim to increase your worst-geared item slot. If you have already crafted all your embellishments but have very low item level rings, for example, it could be worth spending a spark on crafting some higher item level ones.
Trinkets for Holy Paladins
When discussing trinkets, it is important to note that many trinkets have varying item levels. If you have the best trinket at a low item level, another lower-ranked trinket could potentially be better. As always, consult the QuestionablyEpic website to sim your gear and find out what your best combination of items is.
