Tier Sets

Midnight Season 1 Tier Set Bonus:

  • 2 Set - Casting Benediction has a high chance to summon a Divine Image.
  • 4 Set - Divine Image lasts for an additional 3.0 seconds and its healing and damage is increased by 30%.

This tier set plays right into our new Apex Talents. It incentivizes you to spend your Benediction procs quickly so you can spawn even more Divine Images.

Treat the list below as a rough guide to help you target the right content for your gear. To see exactly what's best for your character's current setup, I recommend simming yourself with QELive.

This list will provide the BiS gear for healing inside a raid environment focusing on Crit and Mastery. For M+ you want to focus more on Haste and Crit / Vers.

Overall Best Gear

This list combines crafts, gear from Raiding and Mythic+.

Trinkets

Trinkets for Raid

S Tier (Important)

A Tier (Strong Secondary Options)

  • Crucible Of Erratic Energies: Incredibly strong reputation trinket, even on 263 it outperforms a lot of the Mythic ILVL trinkets. You need to unlock its full power though.
  • Gaze Of The Alnseer: A solid proc-based secondary stat trinket.
  • Emerald Coach's Whistle: In addition to being strong for yourself, you can share the bonus with another player.
  • Heart Of Wind: A passive trinket that procs a Haste buff from your damage spells.

B Tier (Alternative Options)

Embellishments

Crafted gear provides a massive item level upgrade and gives you access to Embellishments.

Early in the season, it’s vital to get strong upgrades without wasting crests. That’s why I recommend your first craft be the two-handed weapon Aln'hara Cane with the Darkmoon Sigil: Hunt embellishment. This ensures you aren't wasting crests upgrading both a Main Hand and an Off-hand separately.

For your second craft, I recommend Arcanoweave Cord. This is a specific belt with a solid proc that provides constant value.

If you already have a Mythic-level belt, craft a high stat-budget item with Arcanoweave Lining for an immediate power gain. This will likely be Martyr's Waistwrap (Waist), Martyr's Slippers (Feet), or Martyr's Mantle (Shoulders), basically whichever provides the biggest item level jump for you at the time.

Refer to the Stat Priority page for the correct stats.

Bonus Rolls

Introduced in Patch 12.0.5, you can now acquire and use Nebulous Voidcores to easily obtain specific equipment from specific bosses via Bonus Loot Rolls.

If you have access to mythic raids, you should be rolling for your BiS trinkets and ring:

If you have plenty of mythic crests to spend or don't have access to mythic raiding, I recommend using the QE Live Upgrade Finder to see which dungeon you should spend your rolls in. Set the dungeon item level to 289 to see which dungeon has the highest chance of dropping an upgrade.

Ascendant Voidcores

Upon unlocking the Voidforge, you can collect Ascendant Voidcores to further empower your Weapons and Trinkets, via Midnight Endgame Content.

The priority for using your upgrades is fairly simple:

  1. Mythic Two-Handed Weapon (Crafted or dropped)
  2. Mythic Main Hand (If you don't have a two-hander)
  3. Your strong Mythic Trinkets: Locus-Walker's Ribbon, Gaze Of The Alnseer, Litany Of Lightblind Wrath
  4. Your Mythic offhand
