Be Careful With Early Crafts!

Many Embellishments and cantrips on items from the Venomous Abyss were changed less than 24 hrs before the beginning of Season 2, and as such many recommendations are now in flux and have to be re-evaluated. Due to these changes, we highly recommend to hold off on crafting an item on Day 1. Unless you don't mind the recrafting cost or potentially crafting a slightly suboptimal item early on, it might be worth waiting for a few days until things have settled.

This list contains the Best in Slot Gear for Discipline Priest in Midnight Season 2. Keep in mind that there are plenty of other pieces of gear that will be within a margin of error to the ones provided here as well as the inclusion of any tertiary stats can throw off the entire recommendation, but this list is a good starting point/target for what you should be looking for.

FAQWhich Tier Set Pieces Do I Want?

For Midnight Season 2 the catalyst will preserve the stats and effects of the items you catalyse. We have listed the best items to catalyse per slot below:

• Helm: Venomkeeper's Horrific Cowl from Ula'tek in Venomous Abyss
• Shoulders: Ornaments of the Eternal Coil from Twin Fangs in Venomous Abyss
• Chest: Summoner's Searing Shirt from Murder Row
• Hands: Grasps of the Eternal Shadow from Coiled Altar in Venomous Abyss
• Legs: Enveloping Legwraps of the Cosmic Penitent from Sszorak in Venomous Abyss

FAQWhat Should I Be Taking from My Vault Early?

With the start of Season 2, Nebulous Voidcore's are now available to claim from your Vault instead of a piece of gear (except for the first week of the season). Additionally, spending these bonus rolls on Heroic bosses in the Raid will provide you with Mythic items at 1/6 on the upgrade track. Additionally, the final boss in the Raid drops 3 incredibly powerful cantrip items as including a weapon as the bosses only loot for Cloth healers. As a result, the recommendation is to take a bonus roll from the vault for the first 3 weeks that you can and bonus roll the end boss on Heroic until you have all 3 items.

FAQDoes Damage from Trinkets Work with Atonement?

No. External damage effects (trinkets/racials/enchants/embellishments/etc) provide no healing benefit.

Nebulous Voidcore's can be utilized to roll for bonus pieces of loot from Raid bosses or dungeons. You will receive two of these per week starting later in the season. It will cost one to roll on a Raid boss or on a specific dungeon's loot table. Which item you will receive from the location you utilize these will be random, but once you get a specific item from that loot table you will not receive it again. As a result, it may take a handful of weeks/attempts to get the specific item you want, but you are eventually guaranteed to get it with enough attempts.

While the ability to purchase Nebulous Voidcore directly will remain locked until later in the season, you will have the ability to earn these through your Great Vault.

In Season 2, bonus rolling on a heroic difficulty raid boss will provide a 1/6 upgrade track Mythic item instead of a Heroic item. This means you can get access to powerful items early off bosses that normally would be incredibly difficult to kill on Mythic difficulty. Specifically, the final boss of the raid has 3 powerful cantrip items make up the bosses entire loot table for cloth healers. One of these items is a main-hand weapon. As a result, we recommend spending your first 3 vaults of the season claiming Nebulous Voidcores and using them to bonus roll the final boss of the raid on heroic difficulty until you have all 3 items.

Voidcore (Bonus Roll) Priority

1. Mythic Jan'thrazet, the Soul Fang
2. Mythic Venomkeeper's Horrific Cowl
3. Mythic Aqirbane Reliquary
4. Any remaining items from the BiS lists.

As your ability to craft early season is heavily time-gated by both your access to sparks and higher tier crests, you want to ensure your early crafts are high value. Due to the fact that we will be bonus rolling for a Mythic cantrip Main-hand weapon, we do not want to be crafting a weapon in most cases. As a result, your general priority will be as follows:

Discipline Crafted Gear Priority

• Aln'hara Lantern with Hunter's Ritual Stone
• Any high budget slot you do not have at Myth track yet with Arcanoweave Lining on it.
• Any item you do not have on Myth track yet

Keep in mind that while it is a waste of sparks, if you get unlucky with the bonus roll strategy early on and don't get the Mythic cantrip weapon in your first roll or two, you can craft a main hand as well as a temporary hold-over. Crest wise, you're fine because it will simply discount the cantrip dagger the cost of the sparks you spend when you do eventually get it, you're just wasting the 2 sparks. Whether or not you do this will be heavily dependent on your specific situation and the order in which you get your items via the bonus roll.

For more information about crafting gear you can visit our Professions page.

Embellishments are special effects that are either found on crafted pieces by default or can be added to crafted pieces during the crafting process. A character can have two embellishments equipped at any time.

We are currently recommending crafting the following two embellishments for your eventual BiS setup:

• Hunter's Ritual Stone on any main-hand or off-hand craft during the gearing process.
• Arcanoweave Lining on 2 different items. Early on you can throw this on any piece of crafted gear that accepts it, but eventual BiS will have these on low budget item slots like Bracers and Cloak.

You can add sockets to Helmets, Belts, and Bracers with the Miasmic Jewelbinder consumable that you can get if you do not select any of the choices in your Great Vault. Not picking a choice will grant you tokens, six of which can be traded in for the Miasmic Jewelbinder item that allows you to add a socket to the above piece of gear, if you acquired them in Season 2.

Early into a season when you have limited access to crests, such as Myth Mistcrest, it is very important to be spending them in an efficient manner. This will allow you to optimize your early season power as best as possible. The following is a general priority list of what slots have the largest power budget and should be a the priority upgrades with your crests.
