Holy Priest Healing Gear and Best in Slot — Midnight Season 1

This list is a good example of the Best in Slot Gear for Holy Priest from all sources in Midnight Season 1.

Note that there is no such thing as a singular, all-encompassing "BiS". The best items vary per character and situation, and there are many items that are essentially equivalent in terms of HPS, namely when we are just shuffling secondary stats around. We will list one "BiS" item per slot, sometimes two if we feel there is a significant difference.

TipsWhy does the list include a crafted staff even though it's not Best-In-Slot?

To prevent confusion and to help reduce the number of people accidentally crafting the wrong item early on, we have included the crafted 2-handed staff in the list. It is not strictly Best-In-Slot, but it is very close and a great choice for being efficient with your Dawncrests early. If you are able to get the weapons below at Myth level, it will be a slight upgrade over the crafted one, but the crafted one is still a very good option if you want to save your Dawncrests for other items.

• Weight of Command weapon from Imperator Averzian in The Voidspire.
• Sigil of the Restless Heart off-hand from Windrunner Spire.
• Then craft Martyr's Bindings from Crafted with Tailoring.

TipsWhy Are 3 Trinkets Listed?

Because of the added complexity involved in properly planning and using Litany of Lightblind Wrath, we listed a passive alternative. If you are newer to raiding or want a more passive option, Locus-Walker's Ribbon and Emerald Coach's Whistle are both excellent choices that will require less active management.

This section is focused on the best crafts you can do to improve your overall character before the full Season start. While these choices are not strictly Best-In-Slot in the end-game, they provide the most efficient use of your resources to make sure you are getting the most value out of your Sparks and Dawncrests early on.

Check out the End-Game tab if you want the simplistic crafting setup for end-game gear. You can also choose the End-Game setup if you get lucky with a good Myth weapon early on.

1. Aln'hara Cane with Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt
2. Arcanoweave Cord
3. Any item you do not have on Myth track yet.
4. Craft Arcanoweave Lining on either Wrist or Cloak once you have a fully upgraded Myth weapon.

FAQWhy Craft a Weapon First if It is Not Best-In-Slot?

Weapons scale incredibly well with item level, so this craft provides the biggest jump early in player power while being Crest efficient. You are effectively spending 80 Dawncrests to cover 2 slots worth of power, although you do need to spend 2 crafts worth of sparks to get there.

FAQAny Alternatives to Arcanoweave Cord for the Second Craft?

Yes, most notably Arcanoweave Lining. The lining is particularly interesting as it can also buff an ally's damage, which is great for progression.

FAQAny Slots to Avoid Crafting For?

You should avoid crafting on potential Tier slots, as the 4-set tier bonus is far more important than the stats you get from crafting. You should also avoid crafting on your weapon if you are lucky enough to get a good Myth weapon early on, as the item level loss from crafting a weapon is quite high.

This section is focused on the best crafts as a Holy Priest if resource efficiency is not a concern, or who already have a fully upgraded Myth weapon. This is particularly useful for players who are not concerned with maximizing efficiency and instead want to focus on getting best-in-slot to avoid having to craft items they will replace.

Check out the Progression tab if you want the better path for optimizing efficient crests and sparks.

1. Arcanoweave Cord.
2. Arcanoweave Lining, preferrably on Martyr's Bindings or Adherent's Silken Shroud.

FAQWhich Slots are Optimal for Arcanoweave Lining?

Ideally one of the lower budget slots, such as Bracers or Cloak. Because crafted items have a lower maximum item level than Myth track items, crafting on a weaker slot loses less stats.

Below, you will find detailed information about the various crafted items as a Holy Priest.

Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt grants a temporary secondary stat buff when your spells or abilities trigger it. The stat granted depends on the type of creature you are targeting when the effect triggers:

• Haste: Elemental, Aberration, Demon
• Critical Strike: Beast, Mechanical
• Mastery: Humanoid, Dragonkin
• Versatility: Undead, Giant, Other

For Holy Priest, this embellishment is particularly strong because it provides very high stat uptime on various different stats depending on the encounter. The effect is entirely passive and triggered naturally through your rotation.

Important Notes:

• The stat gained is determined by your current target, meaning its value can vary depending on the dungeon or raid encounter.
• Many raid bosses and dungeon enemies fall into the Humanoid or Demon categories, which often results in Mastery or Haste.
• Because it provides consistent stat gains regardless of fight style, it remains one of the best early-season embellishments, especially when crafted on a weapon.

Arcanoweave Cord has a chance to grant a temporary Mastery increase when your healing or damaging spells trigger the effect.

Important Notes:

• The effect procs naturally through normal gameplay with no rotation adjustments required.
• Since Holy Priest has frequent spell casts and heal-over-time ticks, the effect tends to have good uptime in sustained combat.
• This embellishment is often used as a secondary crafted item when paired with another embellishment like Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt or Arcanoweave Lining.

Arcanoweave Lining has a chance to summon a Mana Wyrm that grants Arcanoweave Insight to you and a nearby ally. This effect increases the Primary Stat of both players for a short duration.

For Holy Priest, Primary Stat increases are extremely powerful since Intellect scales all healing done.

Important Notes:

• The effect also buffs a nearby ally, providing a small amount of group utility.
• Because the buff is shared, the total raid value of the effect can be slightly higher than purely personal embellishments.
• The proc is fully passive and does not require any gameplay adjustments.

This set encompasses using 2 of the following items:

• Arcanoweave Bracers
• Arcanoweave Treads
• Arcanoweave Cloak

The Arcanoweave Trappings set bonus grants Critical Strike while you remain above 80% health.

Thanks to large amounts of self-healing, Holy Priests typically maintain high health in raid environments, which makes maintaining this condition fairly consistent during most encounters.

Important Notes:

• The buff is conditional, meaning it will temporarily deactivate if you fall below 80% health.
• The effect performs best in raid environments with predictable damage patterns, where you can remain above the health threshold most of the time.
• This embellishment is one of the stronger long-term embellishment combinations available.
