Elements Set Drops in UBRS and Scholomance
The three main T0 pieces for shamans drop from the final bosses of level 58–60 dungeons, along with helmets, chest pieces, and leggings for other classes. Five more items come from the remaining bosses and trash in six dungeons. Our team runs these dungeons alongside your shaman. You won’t have to find a group for each one. Each of the eight pieces has its own source and drop chance in Classic.
| Piece | Source | Drop Chance in Classic |
|---|---|---|
| Coif of Elements | Darkmaster Gandling (Scholomance) | 5% |
| Vest of Elements | General Drakkisath (Upper Blackrock Spire) | 5% |
| Kilt of Elements | Baron Rivendare (Stratholme) | 5% |
| Remaining five pieces | Bosses and trash | Varies |
The Classic figures serve as a reference because Blizzard does not publish drop rates for Forever. Coif, Vest, and Kilt dropped 5% of the time there, versus 9–12% for most other classes. The Alliance didn’t have shamans in Classic. But Darkmaster Gandling in Forever drops helmets from all nine T0 sets. Our team farms this drop for you.
Elements Set Bonuses for Horde and Alliance
Forever grants a new set bonus at every step from two to six items. Blizzard removed the eight-piece threshold along with the final Classic bonus of +8 to all resistances. That's why all five bonuses activate with just six items. This allows you to fill empty slots with powerful gear outside of T0. The Alliance Dwarf Shaman and the Horde Skyborne Shaman receive the same bonuses in World of Warcraft Forever.
Shaman Pre-Raid BiS by Spec
The pre-raid BiS for shamans in Forever relies on T0 pieces. Alongside these are items from professions and the open world, which Blizzard has reworked for specific roles. Each spec has its own suitable items:
- Restoration - Hide of the Wild gives +42 to healing and +14 to damage. This cloak and the Green Dragonscale armor from Leatherworking are part of resto shaman pre-raid BiS.
- Enhancement - The level 46 mail world epic Stonerender Gauntlets received +20 Strength and spell damage from Blizzard. These gloves and the Black Dragonscale set for physical damage form the foundation of enhancement shaman pre-raid BiS.
- Elemental - The Elemental Shaman combines T0 pieces with the Blue Dragonscale armor set. Blizzard has given this armor caster stats in Forever.
We recommend keeping T0 as the foundation of your gear and swapping out slots one at a time. This approach will save you from having to re-evaluate all your gear after every new drop.
