BIS LIST · BURNING CRUSADE · PALADIN

Retribution Paladin: BiS list for TBC (Burning Crusade)

For every slot: our best item and up to two alternatives for Paladin (Retribution) – pre-raid (dungeons, heroics, quests, professions, reputation, badges) and every raid phase from Karazhan, Gruul and Magtheridon to the Sunwell Plateau. For TBC Classic and the TBC Anniversary realms. Hover or tap an item for its stats.

Anniversary realms: Phase 4: Zul'Aman is open (since 2026-10-22). The Sunwell phase has no date yet.

GuildLoot’s own recommendation based on the item stats in our TBC loot database (CMaNGOS) and general stat priorities of the spec – not copied from another list. Hit, spell hit and expertise only count up to the usual cap of the spec (without raid buffs), every socket counts as a rare gem plus the socket bonus, set bonuses are included (tier bonuses without a number are estimated conservatively). Effects such as “Use” or “Chance on hit” are roughly estimated and marked with ≈. Relics (libram, idol, totem) only work through effects and are therefore left out. Not included: arena gear (team rating), events. Badge vendors: item list per Warcraft Wiki (CC BY-SA 4.0), phase per item estimated conservatively by patch.

Pre-raid Dungeons (incl. heroic), quests, professions, reputation, badges
