Iteration count

Fight

The engine's default encounter: one raid-boss target (level 63) for two minutes, give or take fifteen seconds, with no movement and no adds.

Not included

Forever's re-tuned item stats and the loot from its new dungeons and raids, neither of which Blizzard has published; multi-target fights; healer specs; and true paired sims (the pairings above are additive estimates).

Engine build

wowsims Forever 931ae382c3ca5c44e88de12b4eb19d4c819676ae (forever-931ae382c3ca5c44e88de12b4eb19d4c819676ae). Simmed Oct 1, 2026. Talent values are still being checked against the beta client, so the order can shift until Forever's own data lands. The board is re-simmed after engine updates.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best trinket for Shockadin Paladin in WoW Forever?

Talisman of Ephemeral Power ranks #1 for Shockadin Paladin with a +3.12% DPS gain over the no-trinket baseline. The full ranking on this page covers every level 60 trinket a Paladin can equip.

What are the top 3 trinkets for Shockadin Paladin?

Talisman of Ephemeral Power ranks #1 at +3.12% DPS from Magmadar, Molten Core; Draconic Infused Emblem ranks #2 at +2.29% DPS from General Drakkisath, Blackrock Spire; Briarwood Reed ranks #3 at +1.92% DPS from Jed Runewatcher, Blackrock Spire. All deltas are mean DPS over the no-trinket baseline across 10,000 wowsims Forever iterations.

Are these Classic trinkets or Forever trinkets?

The board uses the pinned engine database: Forever client data plus inherited items. Known later-raid rewards are left out of the launch pool. Some sources, availability and item effects still need confirming. Item popups show catalog stats; Wowhead is an outside reference and doesn't cover everything.

How often is the Shockadin Paladin trinket leaderboard updated?

After engine updates. The methodology on this page shows the wowsims Forever build and the date the board was simmed on.

Are these results from real character data or theorycrafted?

They're simmed. Each trinket runs 10,000 wowsims Forever iterations alone in the first slot on a fixed Shockadin Paladin reference build, against a baseline with no trinkets. Your own gear and talents will shift the numbers, so paste your character into the form above for your own result.
