Holy Paladin PvE FAQ
Where does Holy Paladin Phase 5 BiS come from?
From the gear worn by 235 top-ranked Holy Paladin healing parses on Warcraft Logs during Phase 5 (Sunwell Plateau), aggregated per slot — what high parsers actually equip, not a spreadsheet ideal.
What are the highest-consensus Holy Paladin items in Phase 5?
Lightbringer Belt (79%), Lightbringer Treads (79%), Felstone Bulwark (68%). When an item sits above ~70% among top parsers, treat it as the priority drop to chase.
Should I follow this list exactly for Phase 5?
Use it as a loot-priority guide, not a checklist — expand each slot's alternatives, because second-choice items are often within a few percent and drop from entirely different bosses in Sunwell Plateau.
