Gear for Holy Paladin?

Post by janin »

I'm soliciting gear advice for Rila, my Holy Paladin. http://www.wowarmory.com/character-shee ... dum&n=Rila

First, I still have two ilevel 200 items. The thing is they're good ilevel 200 items. The Libram of Renewal reduces mana cost of my main heal, and the Tears of the Vanquished trinket gives intellect and procs a mana regain. I'm unsure if any emblem or boe trinkets or librams are any better. Maybe Intellect Greatness deck, but that's pretty expensive.

I'm also wondering if I should get the Lightsworn pieces or the non-set for chest. I actually like the cloth Meteor Chaser's Raiment http://www.wowhead.com/?item=50974 better than either the set or the plate non-set, but I feel kinda strange buying cloth for a paladin.

Any advice appreciated!

Adam

There is a trinket bought with triumph badgers that is around 128 int and 580sp on use or so. It would be very easy to get and may be better than a lower level trinket you are using.

Yep, that's my other trinket. I'm pretty sure it's the best in slot other than heroic ICC.

Forget the int-greatness card. If temporary Int works the same as temporary stam, then you won't get that much mana out of the procs (its not 10 mana per 1 point of int, its a percentage of 10per1 equal to your current mana pool percentage... confusing i know... i can explain in vent if you want).

Regarding Tier versus Off-set. I think a lot of people are in that boat: you should weight the tier bonus against the stat loss. Also, you should calculate it based on Off-set(264) vs T10(251). Yes, you can upgrade to sanctified(264), but don't count on getting a full set for a while (unless you got real lucky with VoA). In Adam's case, the question is: if he gets the 4 piece bonus, how often will he trigger the proc? Is it worth the better stat he could have on the off-set pieces.

(and personally, i'd steer faaaar away from the cloth piece)
