How to Easily Catch up on Gear in Shadowlands Season 4 (9.2.5)

You will find two vendors in Zereth Mortis that sell catch-up gear, ideal if you are returning to the game and need better gear on your main or want to funnel gear to your other characters (alts).

In Haven, seek out Hadja (Enlghtened Provisioner). The broker sells item level 226, Bind-to-Account gear tokens for 500 Reservoir Anima each. The gear has a small chance to proc to item level 229.

Make sure to switch to your desired Loot Specialization before using the token.

Keep in mind that Rings and Trinkets are Unique-Equipped and there is a chance you will have to buy multiple tokens if you receive the same item.

Hadja sells the following gear tokens for Anima:

• Broker's Weaponry (Weapon Token);
• Broker's Helm (Helm Token);
• Broker's Legguards (Legs Token);
• Broker's Gloves (Gloves Token);
• Broker's Bracers (Wrist Token);
• Broker's Accessory (Trinket Token);
• Broker's Chestpiece (Chest Token);
• Broker's Shoulders (Shoulder Token);
• Broker's Boots (Boots Token);
• Broker's Belt (Belt Token);
• Broker's Cloak (Back Token);
• Broker's Braid (Off-Hand Token);
• Broker's Ring (Ring Token).

Another type of catch-up gear is available to purchase from Rafiq located in Pilgrim's Grace. However, the tokens are not available for all armor slots.

The gear can be purchased with Sandworn Relics, an account-wide currency as of August 2, 2022.

Rafiq sells the following gear tokens for Sandworn Relics:

• Helm, Chest, and Leg Tokens cost 300 Sandworn Relics each.
• Shoulder, Gloves, Feet Tokens cost 230 Sandworn Relics each.
• Back, Bracers, and Belt tokens cost 160 Sandworn Relics each.

Yes, the gear you buy from Rafiq with Sandworn Relics can be used to create Tier Set pieces of armor.

• Endless Sands Rares: Drop 8 relics each.
