Fire Resistance for Heat Level 2 and Heat Level 3

To raid the more difficult heat levels in Molten Core you need to hit Fire Resistance thresholds. For Heat Level 2 you need at least 96 Fire Resistance and for Heat Level 3 you need at least 226 Fire Resistance. To increase your Fire Resistance you can equip gear, utilize enchantments, use consumables, and get buffs from your  Druids,  Shamans ¹, and  Paladins ¹.

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

•  Mark of the Wild (up to 27 Fire Resistance if improved, does not stack with  Fire Resistance Totem)
•  Lesser Arcanum of Resilience (Head & Legs Enchants, Libram of Resilience)
•  Blessed Flame Mantle of the Dawn (Argent Dawn – Exalted),  Flame Mantle of the Dawn (Argent Dawn – Revered)
•  Hydraxian Coronation (Hydraxian Waterlords – Honored)
•  Juju Ember (Shardtooth E'ko at 61.8 38.2 in Winterspring)
•  Magic Resistance Potion (does not stack with  Mark of the Wild or  Fire Resistance Totem)
•  Miniaturized Fire Extinguisher (Demon Fall Canyon)
•  Jaws of Might (Molten Core)
•  Tempered Dark Iron Boots (Lokhtos Darkbargainer in Blackrock Depths)
•  Devilcore Gauntlets &  Devilcore Leggings (Leatherworking)
•  Ocean's Breeze (A Hero's Reward)
•  Pyremail Wristguards of Power (Blackrock Depths)
•  Wildfire Cape (Upper Blackrock Spire)
•  Drakefire Amulet (Blackrock Spire)

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.

🔥 Since the boss Garr from Molten Core can dispel magic effects, you should make sure your  Warrior is hitting the Fire Resistance threshold without  Mark of the Wild for that specific fight. This might require you to have some off-pieces for that boss fight.

¹ For most guilds, it is not recommended to rely on  Shaman totems or  Paladin auras to hit the minimum Fire Resistance thresholds. If the aura or totem is out of range or the player dies, you will lack Fire Resistance. Use the totems or auras as additional mitigation, but calculate your Fire Resistance without them.

DPS Warrior Consumables in SoD

•  Juju Power /  Elixir of Giants

Don’t use  Consecrated Sharpening Stone on your main-hand weapon, if you have  Windfury Totem or  Wild Strikes in your party. Always use it on your off-hand weapon, if you’re dual-wielding.

DPS Warrior Stat Priority

As a DPS  Warrior you want to prioritize gear with the following stats:

1. Up to 9% Hit Chance against level 60 raid bosses.
2. Crit Chance.
3. Strength.
4. Agility.
5. Attack Power.

After reaching the hit cap, more Hit Chance loses value and other stats become more impactful. Depending on your runes and talents you might need less hit chance from your gear to reach the hit cap.
