Protection Paladin Tank Gems, Enchants, and Consumables — Dragonflight 10.2

In general, the gearing you will do with gems and enchants will all go the same direction as the general way of gearing your character for specific stats. You can read more about it in the Stat page linked below.

You should use one Fierce Illimited Diamond and fill the rest of your sockets with Quick Ysemerald or Keen Ysemerald.

Use Phial of Tepid Versatility for raiding content and Phial of the Eye in the Storm for Mythic+ content.

Howling Rune will be your Rune of choice as a simple Haste buff.

Elemental Potion of Ultimate Power should be your combat potion of choice.

You should use Dreamwalker's Healing Potion for in-combat healing. Healing potions do not share a cooldown with Healthstones, so you can use both independently if you have access to a Warlock.

Use Deviously Deviled Eggs as your food buff of choice.

If a Grand Banquet of the Kalu'ak is available, use this instead.

In addition, if you can afford it, you should use Draconic Augment Runes to increase your primary stat. Since there is a finite amount of the consumable runes available, you should make sure to use them wisely and to stock up on them for when you need them.

Through the new Emerald Dream Zone and its Dream Wardens Faction, you can also obtain the Dreambound Augment Rune, which is permanent!
