Gearing your guardian druid in Mists of Pandaria

This post will be updated with gear for Guardian druids in Mists of Pandaria as the beta progresses and moves into the released product. Expect a lot of updates and changes during this time.

I have made some significant updates to this recently, and it now includes gear for all slots, including the location of the items in most cases.

For a guide on how to obtain gear while levelling up, please refer to my post on gearing strategies.

The ilevels of items in this expansion are:

  • Questing gear ranges from ilvl 364 to ilvl 450
  • Normal instance gear ranges from ilvl 425 to 450
  • Heroic instance gear is ilvl 463
  • Epic gear is ilvl 476+
