WoW Season of Discovery Phase 2 Best Pre-BiS Gear & Items for Each Class

As we eagerly anticipate the release of Phase 2 for the Season of Discovery, set for February 8th, it's crucial to get a head start on acquiring the best pre-raid BiS (Before in Slot) gear. This article will guide you through the most broken items available in this upcoming phase, item descriptions, and the classes that will benefit the most from them.

• Blazewind Breastplate (Leather)

This leather chest piece offers a significant boost with +23 agility. It's perfect for those who rely on agility for their damage or survivability. One of the best pre-raid BiS items you can get now are the Blazewind Breastplate for leather classes and the Warforge Breastplate for plate classes. Both chest pieces grant impressive stats, with the Blazewind providing 23 Agility and the Warforge giving 22 Strength. You'll need to complete the quest "Tremors of the Earth" in the Badlands as Alliance or "Broken Alliances" as Horde, which involves killing several level 50 elites. This is an easily obtainable quest that provides strong pre-raid gear.

• Warforce Breastplate (Mail)

This mail chest piece comes with +22 strength, making it indispensable for classes that benefit from the melee power increase.

These items are attainable through a quest called "Tremors of the Earth" for the Alliance and "Broken Alliances" for the Horde, located in the Badlands. You'll be taking down level 50 Elites, so team up as everyone will be vying for these pieces.

• Wolf's Head Helm (Druids)

For feral druids, the Wolf's Head Helm is a game-changer, granting 20 extra energy upon shifting into cat form. When combined with the Furor talent, this results in a total of 60 energy, allowing for potentially infinite energy as long as mana lasts. This helmet maintains its relevance well into higher levels of play. It's crafted by leatherworkers, and the good news is, it's BoE (Bind on Equip), so anyone can use it without needing the profession.

• Whirlwind Axe (Warriors)

Warriors, your attention should be on the Whirlwind Axe. Obtainable from an elite quest at level 30, this weapon does more DPS than many higher-level options and benefits your rotation immensely. Although it's challenging to acquire, the effort is worthwhile.

• Ravager (Warriors)

Another notable mention for warriors, and enhancement shamans is the Ravager. This axe has a chance on hit to unleash an AOE whirlwind, dealing substantial damage. It can be found in the Scarlet Monastery Armory, dropped by Herod. While its DPS is higher than the Whirlwind Axe, its speed makes its practical DPS a tad lower.

• Herod's Drops (Shaman or Class Can Equip Mail)

While discussing Herod, it's worth mentioning two items he drops that, while not the most powerful stat-wise, are iconic in appearance:

• Herod's Shoulder

• Raging Berserker's Helm

These drops will appeal to any class that can equip mail and values aesthetic as much as performance.

• Smott's Compass (Tanks Especially Feral Druids)

In the treacherous jungles of Stranglethorn Vale, the elite giant Negolash poses a formidable challenge for players seeking the prized Smott's Compass, a trinket that grants a valuable 1% boost to dodge. The quest to defeat this underwater behemoth starts with an unassuming NPC in Booty Bay and is notoriously difficult, often requiring a full party to overcome. While it may not sound significant, the dodge increase is incredibly beneficial for tanks, particularly feral druids, who will find Smott's Compass to be a crucial piece of gear for enhancing their survivability in the face of Azeroth's most dangerous foes.

• Manual Crowd Pummeler (DPS & Tank Druid)

The Manual Crowd Pummeler is a weapon that, due to its attack speed increase, has become essential for DPS and tank feral druids. Blizzard may rework this item to remove charges, adding a cooldown instead, which could make it even more desirable.

• Nifty Stopwatch (For PvP)

Lastly, the Nifty Stopwatch is a trinket that grants a 40% speed increase for 10 seconds. This item is not only excellent for leveling but also remains useful at level 60 for PvP. It's acquired from a quest in the Badlands, and you'll need a "gyrochronatom," which is available on the auction house or from engineers, to complete it.

As we prepare for the upcoming phase, remember to gear up with these potent items to ensure you're at the top of your game. Make sure to stock some cheap WoW SoD Gold for sale from Rocketprices.com for Phase 2 now!
