Warrior PvE best in slot at level

The best gear for a level 20 Warrior in the WoW Forever beta, slot by slot, with stats and sources for every item. PvE list: Someone else is holding the pack, so Stamina barely counts. Weapon damage first, then Strength and attack power.

Level 20 list, kept as it was before the beta went to level 30 on October 1. See the level 30 list

Campfire buffs come on top of these: sit by a campfire for a minute and each object placed around it gives its buff for an hour.

Stats are read from the beta client. Rankings within each slot are ours, best first, for dungeons at the level 20 cap, on what the list says it weighs at the top of the page. Quests marked “in Classic” come from Classic’s data: Forever may have moved their level. Seen something better on a stream or in your bags? Tell us through the note at the bottom right.

The Warrior buffs and nerfs of each beta update are in the patch notes.
