Pre-Ulduar
Item | Source |
Naxxramas – Multiple Bosses |
Hood of Rationality is the best helmet acquirable outside of Ulduar. It drops from both 10 and 25 man version of the Malygos encounter, which is easily puggable in phase 2 of WotLK.
The second and third best options for this slot, Valorous Crown of Faith & Cowl of Vanity both drop off of various bosses in Naxxramas 10 and 25 man.

Ulduar – Yogg Saron (25) |
In order to secure your 4 piece set bonus, you’ll want to use Conqueror’s Cowl of Sanctification. Your 4 piece is extremely powerful and should be your main priority when gearing this phase.
Disregarding the power of your 4 piece, Crown of Luminescence is the most powerful helmet stat wise in the game. Closely followed by Cowl of Dark Whispers, both of these are viable options if you don’t yet have the correct 4 pieces of tier.

Life-Binder’s Locket is the best necklace obtainable outside of Ulduar, and can be acquired from a quest item that drops from Sapphiron.
Torque of the Red Dragonflight is also powerful, but a direct downgrade to the necklace listed above. You can acquire this easily via Heroic+ Dungeons.
Chains of Adoration is a distant third option, and should also be easy to acquire via Heroic+ Dungeons.

Ulduar – XT-002 Deconstructor (25) (HM) | |
Ulduar – Iron Assembly (25) (HM) |
Charm of Meticulous Timing is our best in slot necklace in phase 2 of WotLK, and drops off of the relatively easy XT-002 Deconstructor 25 man hardmode fight. It should be noted that this necklace is itemized better for Holy Paladins and Resto Shaman, so consider passing it to them first.
Pendant of the Shallow Grave is a close second, and is actually superior to Charm of Meticulous Timing on short, less mana intensive fights. It drops from the easiest hardmode in Ulduar, Thorim 10 man.
Sapphire Amulet of Renewal is a distant third option and drops off of Iron Assembly 25 HM.

Mantle of the Extensive Mind are decent shoulders that should be relatively inexpensive on your servers auction house.
However, the best shoulders you can quickly acquire upon hitting 80 is T7 shoulders. Either Valorous Shoulderpads of Faith for 60 Emblem of Valor, or get lucky and find a Heroes’ Shoulderpads of Faith from Heroic+ Dungeons.
Miasma Mantle is a decent alternative to these options if you are lucky enough to find one in Heroic+ Dungeons.
Pre-Ulduar
Item | Source |
Naxxramas – Multiple Bosses |
Your tier shoulders Valorous Shoulderpads of Faith will be the most powerful option outside of Ulduar.
Mantle of Dissemination and Sympathetic Amice have wonderful stats if you are not concerned about set bonuses from your T7.

In order to secure your 4 piece set bonus, you’ll want to use Conqueror’s Shoulderpads of Sanctification. Your 4 piece is extremely powerful and should be your main priority when gearing this phase.
Amice of Inconceivable Horror is a great alternative if you do not yet have Conqueror’s Shoulderpads of Sanctification, but be warned that it is best in slot for Affliction Warlocks, so it is recommended that you pass to them.
Another viable placeholder until you have your tier is the Mantle of the Unknowing which drops off of normal mode Vezax 25 man.
Fresh 80
Wispcloak is a relatively cheap crafted BoE that should be available on your servers auction house. Buying this would provide a nice boost upon hitting 80, but it will quickly be replaced by easily obtainable badge and dungeon items.
The best cloak you can get as a fresh 80 is the Cloak of Kea Feathers. It only costs 25 Emblem of Valor and will get you lots of mileage.
Cloak of the Dying is a strong cloak if you are lucky enough to find it in Heroic+ Dungeons.
Pre-Ulduar
Item | Source |
Pennant Cloak is extremely powerful and comparable to nearly any cloak in the entire game. It is heavily contested and drops off of 2 Drake Sartharion, which can be challenging relative to other Tier 7 content.
Cape of the Unworthy Wizard drops off of the final boss of Naxxramas, Kel’Thuzad. It is far inferior to the Pennant Cloak, but may be more easily obtainable as it is less contested.
Cloak of Kea Feathers is very easy to obtain as it only costs 25 Emblem of Valor. It is not as strong as the options listed above.

Ulduar – Iron Assembly (25) (HM) |
Drape of the Sullen Goddess drops from Freya 25 man Hardmode, which is relatively difficult. It is contested by Holy Paladins and Resto Shaman, but should typically be given to the Discipline Priest first.
Sunglimmer Cloak is also an exceptional cloak, and drops off of a quest item, Reply-Code Alpha, from Algalon The Observer 25 man. The quest offers best in slot rings and cloaks for nearly every DPS and Healer in the game, so it is highly contested. If you are lucky enough to get Reply-Code Alpha, you are better off selecting Starshine Circle instead.

Upon hitting level 80, you’re going to want to farm Heroic+ Dungeons for a decent chest piece. The best of which by far is your tier chest, Heroes’ Robe of Faith. If you don’t manage to acquire this from Heroic+ Dungeons, it is also available for 80 Emblem of Heroism.
Gown of the Spell-Weaver & Robes of Hoarse Breaths are viable alternatives that both drop in Heroic+ Dungeons.
Pre-Ulduar
Before Ulduar, Blanketing Robes of Snow is the best obtainable chest piece. It drops from both 10 and 25 man Eye of Eternity, which is easily pugable now in phase 2.
If you are able to make a set bonus, however, you should seek out Valorous Robe of Faith, which drops from several bosses in Naxxramas.
Robes of Mutation & The Sanctum’s Flowing Vestments are also competitive. The Sanctum’s Flowing Vestments has the benefit of being very good for both Holy and Shadow as well.

In order to secure your 4 piece set bonus, you’ll want to use Conqueror’s Robe of Sanctification. Your 4 piece is extremely powerful and should be your main priority when gearing this phase.
If you do not yet have 4 piece or are looking to exclude chest, Raiments of the Iron Council from normal mode 25 man Iron Assembly is the best chest for its standalone stats. Robes of the Umbral Brute is also comparable.

Cuffs of the Shadow Ascendant are a cheap option that you can buy on the auction house upon hitting 80. You will quite a bit of mileage out of these, and they remain competitive for quite a while.
Alternatively, if you are lucky enough to obtain Resurgent Phantom Bindings or Cuffs of Winged Levitation during your Heroic+ grind, consider saving your gold instead of spending it on Cuffs of the Shadow Ascendant.
Pre-Ulduar
Item | Source |
Naxxramas – Multiple Bosses |
Unsullied Cuffs are extremely powerful and will last you well into Ulduar. They are, however, extremely contested by every other casting class in the game.
Bindings of Yearning & Bands of Impurity are also powerful bracers, both of which drop in Naxxramas.
Best-in-Slot
Item | Source |
Ulduar – XT-002 Deconstructor (25) | |
Ulduar – Razorscale (25) | |
Grasps of Reason are the best bracers in the game for a Discipline Priest, but they are heavily contested by nearly every caster in the game. It is likely that this item will go to warlocks, mages, and even Holy Priests before you.
For that reason, you should consider using either Shackles of the Odalisque from normal mode 25 man Razorscale or Unsullied Cuffs, which was our best in slot in the previous phase.

Handwraps of Resonance are a phenominal choice to buy immediately after hitting 80. They are an Ulduar 25 man piece that you can buy on the auction house.
All other contenders pale in comparison to the gloves detailed above, but there are several viable options from Heroic and Heroic+ dungeons.
Pre-Ulduar
The best gloves in the game outside of Ulduar, particularly if it helps you complete a set bonus, is your Tier 7 gloves Valorous Gloves of Faith. They drop from The Obsidian Sanctum. Valorous Handwraps of Faith, the shadow priest version of your tier, is also a viable choice, although you will not get any benefit from the 2 or 4 piece set-bonus.
Wraps of the Persecuted and Gloves of Token Respect are common drops from both Naxx 10 and 25 man.
Best-in-Slot
Item | Source |
Ulduar – Algalon The Observer (25) |
Handwraps of the Vigilant are the best gloves in the game for us, and luckily they are mostly uncontested.
Pharos Gloves on the other hand are heavily contested and worse than the Vezax gloves, so it is recommended to pass on these.
If you cannot obtain either of these gloves, your tier gloves are also a solid option based on stats alone, and invaluable if you need gloves to enable your 4 piece set bonus.

Tailoring (415) – BoE | |
Heroic + Dungeons (Former Naxxramas 10 Drop) | |
Azjol’Nerub (H) | |
Heroic + Dungeons (Former Naxxramas 10 Drop) |
Upon hitting 80, your best bet by a mile is to purchase Cord of the White Dawn on your servers auction house. It may be moderately expensive, but it is the second best belt in the entire game, so it will last you a very long time.
If you cannot yet afford Cord of the White Dawn, Agonal Sash & Sash of Mortal Desire are decent starters and that drop in Heroic+ Dungeons.
Elegant Temple Gardens’ Girdle is purchasable via 40 Emblem of Heroism and is serviceable as well.
Sash of the Servant drops from Azjol’Nerub Heroic. It may be worth your time to run it heroic Azjol’Nerub because it also drops Rod of the Fallen Monarch, one of the best starting wands for a discipline priest.
Pre-Ulduar
Outside of Ulduar, Cord of the White Dawn is your best bet. It is crafting via Tailoring and can be purchased on your servers auction house. Not only is it the best belt outside of Ulduar, but it is the second best belt in the entire game.
Leash of Heedless Magic drops from Malygos 10 and 25 man. It is heavily contested by all casters.
Out of Naxxramas you can find both Sash of Solitude & Sash of the Parlor which are viable options, but pale in comparison to the other two belts on this list.
Best-in-Slot
Item | Source |
Ulduar – Algalon The Observer (25) | |
Tailoring – BoE | |
Starwatcher’s Binding is the best belt in the game. It drops off of the very challenging Algalon The Observer in 25 man and is heavily contested by nearly all casters.
Cord of the White Dawn still holds up as the second best belt in the entire game, making this purchase a no-brainer.
Sash of Potent Incantations is a great belt early on in Ulduar, and only costs 28 Emblem of Conquest. You should not consider spending Emblem of Conquest until you have purchased both of the tier pieces.

Upon hitting 80, your quickest path to obtaining decent legs is to farm Heroic+ dungeons. You can farm 75 Emblem of Valor for Valorous Leggings of Faith, or get lucky and obtain one of the other three leggings on this list.
Pre-Ulduar
Item | Source |
Naxxramas – Multiple Bosses |
The best legs outside of Ulduar are your Tier 7.5 legs, Valorous Leggings of Faith, especially if they secure a 2 or 4 piece set bonus.
Ignoring Tier 7 set bonuses, Leggings of Mortal Arrogance have the best stats of any leggings outside of Ulduar.
Distorted Limbs is a distant alternative, although it is very easy to obtain from several bosses in Naxxramas.
Best-in-Slot
Item | Source |
In order to secure your 4 piece set bonus, you’ll want to use Conqueror’s Leggings of Sanctification. Your 4 piece is extremely powerful and should be your main priority when gearing this phase.
Leggings of the Enslaved Idol have the best stats in the game, but are not worth running as your 4 piece is extremely powerful.
Leggings of Profound Darkness are a nice 10 man option, that drop from Vezax.

Upon hitting 80, your two best options are BoEs. Savior’s Slippers can be crafted by a tailor or purchased on the auction house.
Arcanic Tramplers drop from Malygos 10 and 25 man and are also BoE.
If you don’t have gold to spare, Slippers of the Holy Light can be purchased with 40 Emblem of Valor.
If you happen to find Sullen Cloth Boots from Heroic+ Dungeons, these are a viable option as well.
Pre-Ulduar

The Eye of Eternity – Malygos BoE | |
The best options for boots outside of Ulduar are both BoEs. Savior’s Slippers and Arcanic Tramplers can be purchased on your servers auction house.

If you have lots of gold, Inscribed Ring of the Kirin Tor is extremely powerful and purchasable from a vendor in Dalaran. It also comes with the added bonus of giving you a second hearthstone!

If you have lots of gold, Inscribed Ring of the Kirin Tor is extremely powerful and purchasable from a vendor in Dalaran. It also comes with the added bonus of giving you a second hearthstone!
The best ring from Tier 7 content is the Signet of Manifested Pain, but it may be difficult to obtain as it has a low drop rate and is heavily contested.
Seized Beauty on the other hand is far less contested and drops more often.

Fire Orchid Signet and Starshine Circle are the best options in the game for us by far. Fire Orchid Signet drops off of 10 man hardmode Freya, and is BIS for every healer.
Starshine Circle drops off a quest item from 25 man Algalon The Observer. The quest item Reply-Code Alpha gives best in slot rings and cloaks for nearly every class in the game, so it is heavily contested.
Signet of Soft Lament is a solid, relatively uncontested ring from normal mode 25 man Yogg Saron.
Conductive Seal is a good option as well, although it is BIS for warlocks in both Ulduar and Trial of the Crusader, so it is highly recommended that you pass it to them if contested.

Your options for trinkets outside of raids are somewhat limited, although easy to obtain.
The best trinket outside of raids, especially if you are struggling for mana, is Figurine – Sapphire Owl from Jewelcrafting. It is not a BoE, so you will need Jewelcrafting in order to craft and equip it.
There are also three BoEs that are relatively cheap and can be purchased on your servers auction house: Darkmoon Card: Greatness, Je’Tze’s Bell and Darkmoon Card: Illusion. They are all very close in strength, so if you are short on gold, consider buying whichever two are cheapest.
An interesting but viable option is the Battlemaster’s Bravery, which you could quickly obtain in an hour or two of Battlegrounds and Wintergrasp.

Illustration of the Dragon Soul is an insanely overpowered trinket for Discipline Priests. It is by far the best trinket in the game during Phase 1 WotLK, and is the second best trinket in the game in Phase 2.
Forethought Talisman is a solid output option and is very easy to obtain. It is relatively uncontested and drops off of multiple bosses in Naxxramas 10 and 25 man.
There are also three BoEs that are relatively cheap and can be purchased on your servers auction house: Darkmoon Card: Greatness, Je’Tze’s Bell and Darkmoon Card: Illusion. They are all very close in strength, so if you are short on gold, consider buying whichever two are cheapest.

Show of Faith & Illustration of the Dragon Soul will be your best trinkets this phase.
Show of Faith is a well balanced trinket with great output potential with its static spellpower, and lots of sustain with its mp5 proc.
Illustration of the Dragon Soul is still our best trinket this phase. It has absurd output potential, even more so if you stack it before an encounter.
Sif’s Remembrance is a baby version of Show of Faith, and drops off of Thorim 10 man hardmode, which is quite easy.
Although it is much better on Holy Paladins, Meteorite Crystal is a viable option for us as well.

As an immediate option right as you hit 80, Titansteel Guardian is your best bet. It is crafted by Blacksmithing but is a BoE, so you can purchase it on your servers auction house.
Hammer of the Astral Plane & Ice Spire Scepter are overpowered weapons from Heroic+ Dungeons. If you are fortunate enough to find one of these, you should consider your weapon good enough to enter any raid.

Val’anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings is technically our BIS weapon, however, it is generally considered to be inferior on a Discipline healer compared to any other healing class/spec in the game. It may even be superior on a DPS class such as a Boomkin, Shadow Priest or Enhance Shaman, so there is little reason to ever seek this item over another member of your raid.
Constellus is our realistic BIS this tier. It is a fantastic weapon with perfect stats for a disc priest.
Staff of Endless Winter is another solid alternative, but will be contested by most casters as it is most classes 2nd BIS weapon.

If you are seeking an immediate upgrade upon hitting level 80, Faces of Doom can be crafted via Inscription and purchased on the auction house.
Scepter of Murmuring Spirits is slightly better than Faces of Doom, but will require some luck in Heroic+ Dungeons.
For 25 Emblem of Heroism you can buy Handbook of Obscure Remedies which is a decent starter offhand.
Pre-Ulduar
For an offhand to get you into Ulduar, all of your options are in Naxxramas.

Petrified Ivy Sprig is the best wand in the game for Discipline Priests, despite the hit rating. However it is somewhat rare and heavily contested by anyone who can use a wand.
Scepter of Creation drops off of Ignis The Furnace Master 25 man and is relatively close in value to the Petrified Ivy Sprig.
Scepter of Lost Souls is harder to obtain than the others on this list, as it drops from Vezax 25 man hardmode, which is quite a bit more difficult than the bosses that your other best wands drop from.
