Holy Priest PvE best in slot at level

The best gear for a level 30 Priest in WoW Forever, slot by slot, with stats and sources for every item. Holy PvE list: Healing and spell power first, then Intellect, then mana per 5 sec. A dungeon empties your mana before your time, and every rank keeps its full healing bonus, so low ranks heal the most per point of mana.

Itemization changed significantly in WoW Forever. We will update these lists as soon as we can better model the stats.

Lists up to date with build 70755 (November 3). Some items are yet to be found, so the lists will keep changing.

Stats are read from the game client. Rankings within each slot are ours, best first, for dungeons at the level 30 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.
