Protection Warrior Gems & Enchants

The most-used gems for Protection Warrior in Midnight, plus which slots to enchant — aggregated from real Mythic raid and Mythic+ logs on WarcraftLogs.

Also searched as Prot Warrior.

This page shows what top Protection Warriors actually socket and enchant, based on usage percentages from high-end Mythic raid and Mythic+ parses. The ranking is derived from the frequency each gem or enchant appears on those parses, not from simulations. For gems, Flawless Deadly Peridot leads at 29.2%, followed by Indecipherable Eversong Diamond at 20.7% and Flawless Quick Garnet at 15.3%. For enchants, the most striking takeaway is that Hands are enchanted on 100% of parses, with a Stamina enchant being the only option. Chest enchants are also nearly universal at 88.6%, with Mark of the Worldsoul dominating. Head enchants appear on 73.6% of parses, with Empowered Hex of Leeching the top choice. To use this table, note that the usage figure indicates popularity among top players, not necessarily a performance advantage. For example, on Ring 1, Eyes of the Eagle (43.8%) and Silvermoon's Alacrity (43.1%) are nearly tied, so either is a reasonable pick depending on your stat priorities.
