To increase your Fire Resistance you can equip gear, utilize enchantments, use consumables, and cast your Fire Resistance Totem Fire Resistance Totem.

Use the following sources to increase your Fire Resistance to the required threshold:

Using Fire Resistance items often results in a DPS loss in comparison to your BiS list. After you’ve acquired new raid items recalculate your Fire Resistance and re-optimize your gear loadout.
