WoW MoP Classic Phase 3 is now live, and Throne of Thunder raid is also open. It's very difficult, so tanks, healers, and DPS all need to avoid mistakes as much as possible.

To increase the margin for error, the most direct way is to increase the healer's healing output. If you feel your healer is constantly underperforming, it might be because you're not using the right gear.

Legendary Meta Gems

Before discussing specific gear, let's talk about Legendary Meta Gems. You can obtain them by completing legendary questlines, and they offer a significant boost compared to regular gems. You can unlock four types of Legendary Meta Gems:

• Capacitive Primal Diamond
• Sinister Primal Diamond
• Indomitable Primal Diamond
• Courageous Primal Diamond

For healers, Courageous Primal Diamond and Sinister Primal Diamond are the most commonly used.

Courageous Primal Diamond

If you're looking to boost healing, this gem provides 324 Intellect and has a chance to make spells cost no mana for 4 seconds. It has a 1.4 PPM mechanic, is affected by Haste, and is useful for all healing classes.

Sinister Primal Diamond

Sinister Primal Diamond provides 324 critical strike chance and has a chance to increase spell haste by 30% for a period. It's primarily suitable for Restoration Shamans and Discipline Priests who prioritize damage. It can also be considered for Mistweaver Monks who prioritize damage.

Healing Classes BIS Gear

Restoration Druid

Restoration Druid Vestments of Haunted Forest 2-piece set provides approximately 6-7% healing boost and also applies to Force of Nature and Tranquility. Its 4-piece set bonus is equally powerful, increasing the healing effect of Rejuvenation. You can choose 4 pieces of gear other than the chest armor: helm, shoulders, gloves, and legs. Use individual pieces for the other slots. For Restoration Druid weapons, prioritize high item level weapons, preferably those obtained by upgrading with Valor Points.

For Restoration Druid stats, you can choose to stack Haste or Spirit. Higher Haste results in better Efflorescence healing from the 2-piece set bonus. Stacking Spirit is more effective than Haste for healing durations of 4-5 minutes or more, making it better for progression. Gems should be chosen based on your chosen stat stacking.

Restoration Shaman

Vestments of the Witch Doctor set bonus for Restoration Shaman is relatively weak. The set bonus allows Healing Stream Totem to heal an additional target, but the healing effect is only 25%, resulting in approximately 1.5% increased healing.

The 4-piece set bonus, Ancestral Awakening, has a chance to be triggered by non-critical heal, but the effect is also very weak (approximately 0.5-1% increase), and it doesn't synergize well with critical strike stats. Elemental Shaman set offers better stats, so a combination of 2 pieces from Restoration set and 2 pieces from Elemental set is preferable.

You can choose Kilt of the Witch Doctor and Shoulderwraps of the Witch Doctor from Elemental Shaman Set, and their stats are quite good, and they're convenient for switching specializations.

Weapon selection is the same as for Druids, prioritizing item level. For stats, you can choose to stack haste or critical strike; both are viable, but critical strike might be more advantageous in a 10-man raid.

Priest

Discipline Priest

Vestments of the Exorcist 2-piece set bonus increases Penance's healing by approximately 20%, equivalent to an overall 2% healing increase. Strong for both Discipline and Holy Priests.

The 4-piece set can summon a Golden Apparition with intelligent effects and no flight time, which directly heals the most needed target. This provides approximately a 4% HPS increase for Discipline Priests and is slightly weaker for Holy Priests (Prayer of Healing is superior for group healing).

Therefore, the 4-piece set is slightly better than the 2-piece set or any individual pieces in terms of both healing and damage, but it's actually similar to using 0-piece and 4-piece. If you frequently switch to Shadow specialization, you can use Shadow Tier chest and gloves without significantly sacrificing healing.

In terms of stats, Mastery, at the same value, provides higher pure healing benefits than Critical Strike, while Critical Strike increases both damage and healing, and makes Divine Aegis absorption more stable. Therefore, if you're aiming for a balanced healing and damage, focus on stacking Critical Strike. If you're purely aiming for maximum healing, it's best to stack Mastery.

Holy Priest

The 2-piece Vestments of the Lightning Emperor set is strong, while the 4-piece set is relatively weaker for Holy Priests. Since the critical strike is used relatively infrequently, you can flexibly choose between the 2-piece or 4-piece set; the difference is minimal.

Mistweaver Monk

Fire-Charm Vestments The two-piece set bonus increases Renewing Mist healing by 15 per transfer, resulting in a roughly 2-3% overall healing increase. The four-piece bonus reduces Thunder Focus Tea's cooldown by 5 seconds, but the effect is relatively minor.

The main difference between the four-piece and two-piece setups lies in whether the gloves and leg armor use set pieces or individual pieces. If using individual pieces, Leggings of the Malformed Sapling and Anima-Ringed Fingers are good choices.

In terms of stats, stacking critical strike chance is beneficial for maximizing damage output. Alternatively, it can be combined with Courageous Primal Diamond and Glyph of Uplift for burst damage.

Holy Paladin

The two-piece Vestments of the Lightning Emperor bonus increases Daybreak healing by 50%, roughly a 2-2.5% overall healing increase. The four-piece bonus, however, increases healing transferred to Beacon of Light by 20%, significantly boosting Eternal Flame builds and enhancing tank safety. Stacking mastery might be a better stat choice for this setup.

In Phase 3 of MoP Classic, the increase from stacking Intellect for healers is limited. Therefore, when choosing gear, it's best to focus on more effective secondary stats like Mastery and Critical Strike.

Diablo 4 Season 11 has begun! Are you ready to jump in? While adapting to the new seasonal powers takes time, some tasks are universally applicable across seasons, so you should be able to get started right away.

Generally, farming gold, XP, and gear are tasks you should complete as quickly as possible early in the new season. Gold and XP usually drop together, but gear appears at different stages of the season depending on its rarity.

Diablo 4 gear can be roughly divided into three stages: starter, ancestral, and Mythic, unlocked one by one as you progress. Undoubtedly, Mythic items are the hardest to obtain.

While you may not have the chance to access these rare items at the start of Season 11, you'll need them eventually if you keep playing. Therefore, this guide will provide tips on efficiently farming Mythic Uniques in Season 11.

What Are Mythic Uniques?

This category of items, sometimes called Uber Uniques, is the most powerful and rarest gear category in Diablo 4, and can be equipped as early as level 35 (if you have the gear).

While the drop rate is very low, combat drops aren't the only way to obtain them. You can also find Jeweler or Blacksmith in the game and then use Resplendent Spark and other materials for crafting.

Currently, there are 12 Mythic items in the game, some universal and some class-specific. Therefore, when farming, be careful not to kill bosses that drop gear you can't use, to avoid wasting time.

How To Craft Mythic Items In Season 11?

Although Resplendent Spark is a rare material, you should still try to craft Mythic Uniques using it as a base, as this method guarantees you a Mythic item compared to the uncertain boss drops.

However, the materials required for crafting and the crafting results vary depending on NPC. Jeweler requires you to submit 2 Resplendent Sparks and 30 runes of different rarities to craft a specific Mythic Unique.

Blacksmithing requires simpler materials: 2 Resplendent Sparks and 50,000,000 Diablo 4 gold to craft a Mythic Unique Cache, which will grant a random item reward upon opening.

How To Farm Resplendent Sparks?

Generally speaking, gold and runes are not difficult to acquire, just time-consuming, but Resplendent Sparks are much more challenging and rarer.

The first method is to utilize the seasonal reward system linked to your game progress. Previously, this system was Season Journey, where you could earn a free Resplendent Spark after completing all the quests in the final chapter of the journey.

Although Season Journey and Renown were merged into Season Rank starting with Season 11, the main mechanics and rewards haven't changed significantly, so you can still obtain a spark by increasing your Seasonal Rank.

As for when you'll complete the seasonal Rank missions to unlock rewards, it depends on the season's difficulty and your playtime. Generally, if you play daily, you should be able to reach it before reaching the level cap.

Another relatively reliable way to obtain Resplendent Sparks is by defeating Lilith for the first time each season; one will drop. While this boss is tricky, we believe that after 10 seasons, you should remember her attack mechanics very well.

Furthermore, if you obtain multiple duplicate Mythic Uniques, don't rush to sell them. Instead, it's best to salvage them, which will return one Resplendent Spark. However, the gear will disappear after salvaging, so you need to consider this carefully before deciding.

How To Obtain Mythic Uniques Through Combat Drops?

Although many players have noticed that the drop rate of Mythic gear seems to have decreased in recent seasons, making crafting a better and more stable option, boss battles are still one of the main gameplay elements, so it's worth trying.

Defeat The Lair Bosses

These bosses come in three difficulty levels, mainly including Duriel, Andariel, Belial, and more. The three we've listed are special because in Season 11, they, along with the new world boss Azmodan, will provide you with the new power, Divine Gifts.

These bosses usually have a fixed drop rate for Mythic Uniques; naturally, the higher the boss's level, the higher the drop rate. Even bosses with slightly lower drop rates can bring loot more stable on higher difficulties.

Enter Kurast Undercity

Note that this method only applies to players who own DLC. Here, you can increase the probability of obtaining Mythic Uniques when you receive the final reward by collecting and using Tributes of Ascendance.

Therefore, we recommend challenging this dungeon in a group, as your teammates can also utilize tributes, further increasing the chances of the political team obtaining Mythic rewards.

Try Gambling

This is an unconventional way to obtain Mythic Uniques, but you can try it if you have enough resources.

First, you need to earn enough Murmuring Obols by completing Local Events and Cursed Chest events within dungeons. Then, find Surveyor of Curiosities vendor and gamble using the currency.

The gambling result is a gear. You can specify the gear slot, but the final quality and attributes are random.

The probability of Mythic Uniques appearing this way is highly random and has nothing to do with the amount of Murmuring Obols you use, so it can only be considered a supplement or a pastime.

Is Mythic Unique Worth Sanctifying?

Many players have expressed concerns because the gear cannot be changed after sanctification, and the sanctification result is random. Fortunately, after a recent modification, ancestry and Mythic Uniques will no longer have any attributes replaced.

In other words, they will only receive a pure boost through sanctification, without causing issues like destroying the gear's value. Therefore, what you need to do is work hard to farm specific, better gear attributes.

That concludes this introduction. Although Chaos Armor is no longer available, earning rare gear remains an essential part of your Diablo 4 journey. Keep up the good work!
