Note that Embellishments have yet to undergo tuning and that this recommendation is very preliminary. I do not recommend that you make long-term Crafting Commitments based on this list until the disclaimer you are reading is gone. Please check back to this page when Season 1 is beginning to get updated recommendations.

Holy Paladins have two very competitive embellishment choices: Binding of Binding and Dawnthread Lining. Binding will offer you more overall value, while Dawnthread will offer better personal throughput.

Generally, Haste/Crit is a good stat combination to go with, as it will provide high value in every form of content.

1. Given the fact that Binding of Binding will offer the most consistent value across any form of content, it is recommended that you craft this first.
2. With your second craft, you can use it on Dawnthread Lining. In general, you want to craft these on slots that are unlikely to be replaced and don't have extremely competitive options. For example, crafting any embellishment on a tier slot can tend to be a waste in case you need to use that slot for tier. Similarly, if you get a super rare neck or ring, it would also be a haste to have an embellishment on the sale slot. Generally, you want to chase item level with something like Boots/Belts/Bracers > Rings/Necks > Cloaks.
3. Next, chase Item Level where needed; if you have any slot massively behind, it could be a good idea to target it.
4. At this point, you are mostly done crafting. You can spend future Sparks on off-spec items, alternatively statted crafts for different situations, or even experiment with a Darkmoon Sigil. Keep in mind that you can continue to view an updated list of best embellishments through the QuestionablyEpic website.

The Tier Set is comprised of 5 items, all carrying the Entombed Seraph's moniker. Unique bonuses are unlocked when wearing 2 or 4 pieces from the set:

• Paladin Holy Season 1 2pc — Holy Shock healing is increased by 10%, and its cooldown is reduced by 10%. A large portion of our healing and entire kit plays around Holy Shock, making this a very strong 2pc, albeit a bit boring.
• Paladin Holy Season 1 4pc — Holy Shock increases the initial healing of your next Word of Glory or Light of Dawn by 8%, stacking up 4 times. This continues the trend of emphasizing key areas of our rotation and class, making it another strong tier bonus.

The Holy Paladin tier set is quite strong, giving noticeable power increases at not only the typical 4pc bonus but the 2pc bonus as well, which isn't always common. You can use the Matrix Catalyst to convert regular items (from Mythic+, for example) into Tier Items.

You only need 4 pieces out of 5 to get both set bonuses. We recommend you get all items except for the Shoulders due to their Versatility. Check out the BiS List for more information.
