WoW SoD: Best Fire Resist Gear For Molten Core (2024)

With the release of Molten Core, sources of WoW SoD Fire Resistance gear have become the hottest topic in the community this side of Blackrock Mountain. Molten Core's three Season of Discovery Heat levels, each of which requires players to have reached a certain level of Fire Resistance to survive, make it important to get Fire Resistance gear in WoW SoD quickly.

Though the first tier of Heat really only requires the Main and Off Tanks to have Fire Resistance gear, starting at Heat 2, players will not be able to survive instant-kill mechanics without an enormous amount of Fire Resist armor.

WoW SoD players can use this guide to find out how to get the best Fire Resist armor in WoW SoD for their class, and what gear and other bonuses can be acquired regardless of your Armor.

WoW SoD Fire Resist Items Every Class Can Get

Fire Extinguisher From Demon Fall Canyon

The Miniaturized Fire Extinguisher is a brand-new item in Season of Discovery that is exclusive to the brand-new dungeon Demon Fall Canyon. This Trinket can be equipped for a flat passive +20 Fire Resistance, and when activated, it will instantly purge the wearer of all Fire magic effects.

This item has a two-minute-long cooldown, but its passive Fire Resist boost will carry you between uses. And because it's a Trinket, it can be used by any class with no restrictions, though its one downside is that it offers no strict combat bonuses.

Hydraxian Cloak Enchant

After reaching Honored with the Hydraxian Waterlords, a faction that can be unlocked on an island in Azshara or via Blackrock Eruptions, you gain access to a special item. The Hydraxian Coronation item costs 10g to purchase from Duke Hydraxis, once you have farmed enough Hydraxian Waterlords rep.

This item grants a flat +20 Fire Resistance to a Cloak, and you can't really do much better for just 10g.

It's relatively easy to gain reputation with the Hydraxian Waterlords by completing the Duke Hydraxis questline and by doing your Blackrock Eruption dailies in the Searing Gorge. If you finish the questline, and do Blackrock Eruption dailies for around a week, you will bring your Hydraxian Waterlords rep up to Honored to be able to purchase this item.

Royal Seal of Eldre'Thalas

The Royal Seal of Eldre'Thalas is a Ring that can only be obtained by completing a questline within Dire Maul West. This Ring is no ordinary Ring, though. In fact, every class unlocks a different version of the Royal Seal of Eldre'Thalas that grants both +10 Fire Resistance and a class-tailored bonus.

For example, the Rogue version increases Fire Resistance grants +2% Hit Chance, a really important stat for the class, while Mages get Mana Restoration and Fire Resistance, Hunters get Ranged AP, and Priests get a Healing bonus.

To get this item, each class must find a specific Book within Dire Maul (or just purchase it off of the Auction House). Read the book to get a quest, and return the book to the appropriate Lorekeeper within Dire Maul. Completing the quest grants your class' version of this Royal Seal.
