Best Legendary for All Shadowlands

Best Legendary for All Shadowlands Patch 9.1 DPS, Tank, and Healer Classes for Raids and Mythic+

Shortly after you reach level 60 in Shadowlands you’ll unlock and be introduced to The Runecarver, where you get to craft a legendary piece of equipment for your class and specialization. Legendaries are a very important part of your character progression as it drastically empowers your character and will be mandatory for almost all aspects of the game.

Your main resources for crafting will be Soul Ash to craft legendaries, and Soul Cinder if you wish to upgrade it to the max possible item level.

You can learn more about Soul Ash and Soul Cinder by checking our Torghast Guide.

Without further ado, let's start this guide. 

Disclaimer: This guide provides with you information about the best and most used legendary per class and specialization and is by no means a way to force you to pick something.

You can play with whatever legendary you prefer the most but if you are looking to min/max your character you are at the right place!

Below you will find a list of the best legendaries for each class and specialization based on careful analysis of Warcraft logs, Mythic + and PvP statistics.
