Greetings fellow Resto Druids! Patch 5.2 has dropped, the first wing of LFR has opened and loot will be dropping for millions in the WoW universe. In this post we’re going to list the best items for a Resto Druid within LFR only. We’ll list them by slot, so you can have this window open while you’re raiding and switch over to it to quickly have a look before you use your bonus loot roll! We’ll focus on the pieces that are best for Resto Druid Stat Priorities(i.e. Mastery & Haste), and then list alternative options(i.e. Crit).
To see the purples in all their glory:
