Holy Paladin Healing Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Battle for Azeroth (BfA) 8.3
If you were looking for WoW Classic content, please refer to our Classic Holy Paladin Healer enchants and consumables.
Best Gems for Holy Paladins
You should use 
Deadly Lava Lazuli (or the cheaper
Deadly Amberblaze) in all sockets if using a standard 
Avenging Crusader
build. If using a 
Glimmer of Light build, you should use
Quick Sand Spinel (or the cheaper 
Quick Owlseye) in all sockets.
At lower gear levels (below 400 item level), a 
Leviathan's Eye of Intellect
(or the cheaper 
Kraken's Eye of Intellect) is often superior to either of
the secondary stat gems.

Consumables for Holy Paladins
Best Flasks and Potions for Holy
Greater Flask of Endless Fathoms should be used for raids along with
Superior Battle Potion of Intellect and 
Potion of Replenishment (or
Coastal Mana Potion if you cannot drink safely) as your potions of
choice.
Abyssal Healing Potion can be used in addition to 
Healthstone as an
emergency heal, as these do not share a cooldown.
Best Food for Holy
For the Avenging Crusader build, you should eat from the
Famine Evaluator And Snack Table (or the cheaper 
Sanguinated Feast) when
possible, and otherwise use Critical Strike food (
Mech-Dowel's "Big Mech" or
the cheaper 
Honey-Glazed Haunches).
For the Glimmer of Light build, you should eat 
Baked Port Tato
or the cheaper 
Swamp Fish 'n Chips.
Augment Runes for Holy
If you can afford it, you should use 
Battle-Scarred Augment Runes to
increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of these runes
available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them
for when you need them.
Starting in patch 8.3 you can also use the re-usable
Lightning-Forged Augment Rune to increase your primary stat by an equal
amount.
