Holy Paladin Gear List: 3.2.2This list is intended as a reference for healing paladins who want to know what gear is out there, and where they can obtain it. I included some commentary where I felt it was necessary to elucidate my choices.
There are sure to be items I have overlooked, as this is a fairly patchwork job at the moment and relies heavily on the veracity of the Wowhead item database. Please feel free to point out items that are missing and I will update if they meet the criteria in the guidelines section.
References/Credit:
Wowhead – their item database is the source of all the links found below. If loot isnt in their database, is isnt listed below.
Changes/Updates Pending:
Many of the ToGC(10) ilvl 245 items were not included in wowhead's database at the time of this writing (October 7th 2009), and so they are not yet referenced.
GuidelinesRankings are based on ilvl, and loosely on the personal biases of the author within ilvl categories. Ilvl ranges from 200 to 272(where available). I have omitted several ilvl200+ pieces in certain cases because there are much more easily obtainable alternatives (e.g. ToC5 loot vs Naxx25).
Items are sorted by slot, ranked descending by ilvl, and reference their location. Only plate gear is included so far, though I am aware there are some very good mail options available.
PvP gear omitted.
Item names for Tier 9 and Trial of the Crusader loot are based on their Alliance models. Since stats are identical and loot is equivalent across factions, horde players shouldnt have any trouble making references.
Without further ado.

Cloak – Some of the ilvl 245 + cloaks I included have spirit. They're simply too good to pass up, despite being better itemized for other classes. Note: there was some confusion as to whether some of the ilvl 258 items could drop in the Heroic ToC10man. This may be the case.

Rings – I made a choice not to include rings with spirit here, in the same vein as my reasoning for not including mail armor. We can use them, but other classes benefit more, and you should only be taking them if no one else needs, as opposed to aiming for them. I made an exception for the ilvl 245+ items since.. well.. damn.

That looks to be about the face of it at the moment. All comments and suggestions are welcome, so please chime in if you have something constructive to offer. A final disclaimer of sorts - I know in the face of comprehensive item databases like imba, wowhead, Rawr, even armory, these old html lists are looking pretty shabby. I was feeling nostalgic and had a couple of hours to kill. hopefully some folks will findd it useful.
Enjoy.
