Gear is one of the most vital aspects and represents the source of power for your character in World of Warcraft! Protection Paladins exploring Mists of Pandaria will seek items that increase their Hit, Expertise, Stamina, Strength, Haste, Mastery, Parry, and Dodge.

Phase 1 Best-in-Slot

This is the best gear you can obtain in Phase 1 of Mists of Pandaria, including gear from the three Tier 14 raids: Mogu’Shan Vaults, Heart of Fear, and Terrace of Endless Spring. Don’t forget to gem, enchant, and reforge every item to complete your optimization.

T14 set bonuses are very strong for Protection Paladins, with the 4-item set bonus being extraordinary, even if you only manage to secure lower Ilvl items to activate it. You will want to prioritize tier set items and ideally opt for a 4-set piece and one off-piece, but you can also choose to use 5 out of 5 T14 items.

It is essential to understand that tanks in Mists of Pandaria utilize a combination of traditional tanking gear and DPS gear. This is due to the importance of Haste and Mastery, in addition to conventional tanking stats such as Parry and Dodge.

With this set, you will want to reforge a large chunk of your Mastery and Hit into Haste. You will also want to use Expertise gems!
