Holy Priest Best in Slot — WotLK, Pre-Raid

Healer · Updated 2026-07-22 Draft — being verified

Pre-Raid Best in Slot from the Icy Veins WotLK Classic Holy Priest Healer gear guide (pre-raid page, sourced from 5-man heroic dungeons, Emblems of Triumph/Frost, crafted profession items, and the Wrathgate/Argent Tournament questlines). Rings/Trinkets: the source page lists 2-3 ranked options in one row (you equip two) — split here into two named slots, top pick in slot 1; the combined source text is kept as-is for both since Icy Veins doesn't map cost to item 1:1 in that row. Enchants/gems reused from the matching wotlk/p4 spec profile (same stat priorities apply pre-raid).
