The generic recommendation above is close to the best gems. It enchants you can use, but every character has a different stat distribution. For Retribution Paladins, the best gems and enchants are close in performance. This is why we recommend using Raidbots' Top Gear to find the best gems and enchants for your character. Here, you can input an export from the Simcraft AddOn, select the gems and enchants to compare, and it will find out which are the best. See our Raidbots guide for more information.

The Primordial Stone Gems are a new type of gem added in Patch 10.0.7. A total of 3 Primordial Stone Gems can be socketed into the new Onyx Annulet ring.

For more information regarding the Onyx Annulet, the Primordial Gemstones, and how to obtain them, check out our dedicated guide below.

Below, we list a full recommendation of 3 Primordial Stone Gems for each situation.

• Humming Arcane Stone
• Flame Licked Stone
• Freezing Ice Stone

• Pestilent Plague Stone
• Storm Infused Stone
• Freezing Ice Stone

Phial of Tepid Versatility is our general phial of choice for almost all situations. Phial of Static Empowerment is a decent upgrade for the encounters with little to no movement.

Elemental Potion of Ultimate Power is the best potion, with the cheaper Elemental Potion of Power being the fallback option. If you died, you can still use your shared combat potion cooldown and the Residual Neural Channeling Agent to deal additional damage.

To heal yourself during combat, use Refreshing Healing Potions and Healthstones (they do not share cooldowns).

You should eat the Grand Banquet of the Kalu'ak feast or the Fated Fortune Cookie for an additional 75 Strength.

As your temporary weapon rune of choice, you should use the Buzzing Rune for additional Critical Strike.

You should use Draconic Augment Rune during progression content for 87 additional Strength.
