Blood Death Knight PvE best in slot, Tier 16 (Flexible item levels)

Blood is a tank specialisation of the Death Knight, which wears plate and builds on Strength. Each slot below holds the best items for it in Siege of Orgrimmar, ranked by the weights in the method note at the foot of the page: Strength; then Mastery; then Hit; then Expertise; then Stamina; then Parry; then Dodge; then Haste.

Not reviewed yet: ordered by stat weights only. Nobody has looked at this list against the game or a second guide, so it is a starting point and may put an item first that you would not. The reviewed specialisations are marked reviewed above.

Ranked by stat weights, not simulated: the order is a weighted sum of an item's stats. An item name opens its page on this site, or a page off this site in a new tab for an item this site has no page for. Report a mistake

How this list is made

  • Ranked by stat weights, not simulated. An item's score is the sum of its stat amounts times the weight below, and a list is that score, best first. The guides it was read from disagree in a way that changes the order.
    • Strength 100
    • Mastery 88
    • Hit 76
    • Expertise 64
    • Stamina 52
    • Parry 40
    • Dodge 28
    • Haste 16
  • Where the weights came from. The order follows Warcraft Tavern. Warcraft Tavern: stat priority and reforging page of the specialisation, read 2026-10-12. Icy Veins: PvE stat priority page of the specialisation (known only through search summaries: the site refused direct reads), read 2026-10-12.
    Icy Veins puts Stamina first and Haste before Parry; haste only helps rune regeneration.
  • Not scored: caps (shown, not enforced); reforging; gems and socket bonuses; enchants; procs, set-bonus value and weapon speed. Trinkets: item level, then weighted sum: the effect of a trinket is not evaluated.
  • Not recorded, so not on this page: drop chances; vendors and prices; which content was live and when; trinket, weapon enchant and meta gem effects; reforging and item upgrade steps; Death Knight rune enchants. A source is a kind of place and never a chance.
  • Stats are ratings from the items alone. Percentages need the character's level and talents, so none are shown.
  • Something wrong or missing? Report a mistake, or read About the data and Sources.
