Holy Paladin Best in Slot — WotLK, Phase 4 — ICC & Ruby Sanctum

Healer · Updated 2026-07-23 Spotted a mistake in this BiS list? Email bis@boostyou.ai and we'll look into it.

Phase 4 (Icecrown Citadel 25 Heroic + The Ruby Sanctum) Best in Slot from the Icy Veins WotLK Classic Holy Paladin gear guide (anchor phase-5-tier-10-best-in-slot). Tier set: Sanctified Lightsworn line. Weapon is the legendary Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings (Ulduar fragment questline) — still BiS through ICC; Trinket 2 (Meteorite Crystal) is an Ulduar (Algalon) holdover that remained competitive. Enchants/gems reused across WotLK Int healer specs.
