Book of Highborne Hymns for Resto Shamans (patch 2.4.3)

Book of Highborne Hymns
Book of Highborne Hymns - This drops off the Eredar Twins in Sunwell Plateau. Yes, this is an off-hand frill, which some of you will say that resto shamans should only use shields. Keep in mind that shields will only help you in melee damage. Most raid bosses will only deal spell damage to you while the tanks are the ones who soak up melee hits.

Situations like Bloodboil from Black Temple, Gruul from Gruul's Lair (all melee damage), and Zul'jin's 4th phase, the shield would help you mitigate melee damage that you can't run away from. I'm not telling you to stop using shields if you get this book, but keep a shield in your bag.

There are no shields that have spell haste, and this book is the only healing off-hand with spell haste. Not only does it have spell haste, it also has 9 mp5, a lot of stamina, intellect.

As a resto shaman, roll on this (or spend DKP) even though some raiders might question you. Experienced raiders will know this is the best-in-slot for resto shamans.

Violet Signet of the Grand Restorer (patch 2.4.3)

This ring is terrible for resto shamans. Resto shamans do not get along with spirits because we get no benefit from spirits while casting. This is a great ring for priests and resto druids as they will regain more mana while casting with more spirits.

If you are in T4 contents (Kara, Mags, Gruuls), go for the following rings:

Anveena's Touch - 60 Badge of Justice - this ring will lasts you all the way till Sunwell, and can easily be attained by farming badges.

Jade Ring of the Everliving - Prince Malchezaar, last boss of Karazhan, drops this ring.

Naaru Lightwarden's Band - reward for turning in Magtheridon's head to Thrallmar after defeating Magtheridon in Magtheridon's Lair.

Tome of Diabolic Remedy Trinket (patch 2.4.3)

Tome of Diabolic Remedy - If you are not an alchemist, or if you don't have access to Illidan, then this is the best healing trinket for you. It has a passive 18 mp5, and when big heals are needed, you can always use the trinket's ability to give yourself an extra 396 healing bonus for 20 seconds (2 minute cooldown).

This trinket drops off Hexlord from Zul'Aman, and you can do ZA twice a week.
