On this page, you will find the best Fire Resistance gear for your Hunter DPS in WoW Classic. For more gearing advice, please refer to our Hunter DPS Gearing and Best in Slot guide.
Fire Resistance Gear for Hunters
Fire Resistance is a useful stat to have for Onyxia's Lair, Molten Core, Blackwing Lair progression. Usually, wearing Fire Resistance gear will amount to lower DPS, but on some of the encounters in Molten Core and in Onyxia's Lair, the survivability they offer can be life saving. In our table below, we have listed the best Fire Resistance gear that drops outside of Molten Core so you can use this to prepare for the raid ahead of time. Balancing resistance gear with your other gear is important to find the balance of survivability and DPS.
Slot | Item | Source |
---|---|---|
Helm | Molten Helm | Leatherworking |
Neck | Drakefire Amulet | Onyxia's Lair Attunement Quest |
Shoulders | Black Dragonscale Shoulders | Leatherworking |

Wrists | Cinderhide Armsplints (of Fire Resistance) | Lord Incendius in Blackrock Depths |
