Best Crafted Items for Holy Paladin

The best Embellishment for Holy Paladin is Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension Icon Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension. Given that this requires a weapon to use, it will allow you to gain early access to a very high item level weapon while also giving you a nice embellishment bonus. Once you craft this, you will generally want to make Writhing Armor Banding Icon Writhing Armor Banding which will double the power of your weapon embellishment. Outside of this, the remaining options are fairly close but also unimpressive. You have the choice between Dawnthread Lining Icon Dawnthread Lining, Duskthread Lining Icon Duskthread Lining, or even Binding of Binding Icon Binding of Binding if you care only about extra DPS.

Generally, Haste/Mastery is a good stat combination to go with for pure healing, otherwise you can go Haste/Versatility if you plan on playing an equal amount of Mythic+ and Raiding.

3.1.

Best Crafting Order for Holy Paladin

  1. First craft a max item level weapon and use Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension Icon Darkmoon Sigil: Ascension. This will give you a massive power boost not only in the form of primary stat on weapon, but also in having an early embellishment.
  2. With your second craft, you can use it on Writhing Armor Banding Icon Writhing Armor Banding. In general, you want to craft these on slots that are unlikely to be replaced and don't have extremely competitive options. For example, crafting any embellishment on a tier slot can tend to be a waste in case you need to use that slot for tier. Similarly, if you get a super rare neck or ring, it would also be a waste to have an embellishment on the sale slot. Generally, you want to chase item level with something like Boots/Belts/Bracers > Rings/Necks > Cloaks.
  3. Next, chase Item Level where needed; if you have any slot massively behind, it could be a good idea to target it.
  4. At this point, you are mostly done crafting. You can spend future Sparks on off-spec items, alternatively statted crafts for different situations, or even Dawnthread Lining Icon Dawnthread Lining for Mythic+. Keep in mind that you can continue to view an updated list of best embellishments through the QuestionablyEpic website.

The War Within Season 1 Tier Set for Holy Paladin

The Tier Set is comprised of 5 items, all carrying the Entombed Seraph's moniker. Unique bonuses are unlocked when wearing 2 or 4 pieces from the set:

  • Paladin Holy Season 1 2pc Icon Paladin Holy Season 1 2pcHoly Shock Icon Holy Shock healing is increased by 10%, and its cooldown is reduced by 10%. A large portion of our healing and entire kit plays around Holy Shock, making this a very strong 2pc, albeit a bit boring.
  • Paladin Holy Season 1 4pc Icon Paladin Holy Season 1 4pcHoly Shock Icon Holy Shock increases the initial healing of your next Word of Glory Icon Word of Glory or Light of Dawn Icon Light of Dawn by 8%, stacking up 4 times. This continues the trend of emphasizing key areas of our rotation and class, making it another strong tier bonus.

The Holy Paladin tier set is quite strong, giving noticeable power increases at not only the typical 4pc bonus but the 2pc bonus as well, which isn't always common. You can use the Matrix Catalyst to convert regular items (from Mythic+, for example) into Tier Items.

You only need 4 pieces out of 5 to get both set bonuses. We recommend you get all items except for the Shoulders due to their Versatility. Check out the BiS List for more information.
