Gems are one of the unique ways to augment your character in MoP Remix, offering offensive, defensive, and utility benefits. On this page, we list the best gems for each type. To learn more about Gems in MoP Remix in general, check out our dedicated page below.

• Meta Gem: Lifestorm
• Cogwheel Gem: Blink
• Prismatic Gems:

  You will have a tremendous amount of stats as you start unlocking all Gemslots. If you want to go for a Fire-focused build with Elemental Blastyou will likely want to soft-cap your Mastery (7200). Keep in mind most TinkerGem effects do not scale with Mastery. Otherwise, a healthy mix of Haste,Critical Strike and Versatility is recommended, with a priority on Haste.

• Tinker Gems:
  • Sunstrider's Flourish
  • Windweaver
  • Enkindle
  • Lightning Rod
  • Wildfire
  • Explosive Barrage
  • Fervor
  • Frost Armor
  • Slay
  • Storm Overload
  • Vindication
  • Brittle — Mainly for dungeons.
  • Meteor Storm — if you value the Stun
  • Incendiary Terror — if you value the Horrify
  • Cold Front — if you value the Slow
  • Ankh of Reincarnation
  • Especially during leveling, adjust on the fly depending on personal preference,mainly how defensive you want to go. You can also use "combos" such as Meteor Storm and Opportunist. Keep in mind different Tinker gemsscale differently. Notably, the ones granting Shields appear to scale very weakly.

Level: 60

Your first talent unlocks at Level 10.

This is an example setup; it is difficult to go wrong whileleveling. I would encourage experimenting with the feel of different talents. Notethat the value of some talents/talent combos can change significantly dependingon your secondary stats. This assumes no particular stat is heavily favored. Thisguide chooses to skip Icefury as you already have a lot of buttons,especially if you pick a lot of active talents on the class tree, and Icefury canbe overwhelming for newer players. It is a healthy option for leveling. You maywant to grab Frost Shock at any point to help with movement and kiting.

• Level 11 and 12: Get Astral Shift then Astral Bulwark onyour class tree and Earth Shock on your elemental tree. If you would prefera higher Astral Shift uptime at the cost of a significantly lower damage reduction,you can spec into either Planes Traveler instead, or take Wind Shear earlyto deal with pesky spellcasters.
• Level 13 to 18: Get Wind Shear then Earth Elemental and Capacitor Totem on your class tree and Fire Elemental, then Refreshing Waters and Lava Surge on your elemental tree.
• Level 19 to 24: Get Guardian's Cudgel, Fire and Iceand Healing Stream Totem from the class tree, then path to Call of Thunder onthe elemental tree, grabbing Inundate.
• Level 25 to 34: Get Hex, Nature's Guardianand Thunderstorm from the class tree and Elemental Fury, then Unrelenting Calamity, Stormkeeper, Call of Fire then Echo of the Elements.
• Level 35 to 44 Get Swirling Currents, Spiritwalker's Grace, Brimming with Life and Nature's Furyfrom the class tree and Surge of Power, Master of the Elements then Eye of the Storm from the elemental tree.
• Level 45 to 50: Get Winds of Al'Akir and Gust of Windfrom the class tree and Focused Insight, Flow of Powerand Swelling Maelstrom from the elemental tree.
• Choices!: At this level, you can pick Primordial Wave, Ascendance and either Primal Elementalist or Liquid Magma Totem.You may want three of those. Primordial Wave will help kill spread-out mobs faster and is also a nicesingle-target boost. The others give you strong DPS cooldowns, although apart from Liquid Magma Totem, they can be pretty overkill. Alternatively, you couldskip 2 of the "choice" talents and a path directly to Windspeaker's Lava Resurgence.
• Level 51 to 56: Get Ancestral Guidance, Graceful Spiritand Surging Shieldsfrom the class tree and the 2 previous talents, you did not get to level 51 on the elemental tree.
• Level 57 to 62: Finish Surging Shields, then get Earth Shield. On the spec tree, grab Magma Chamberand Windspeaker's Lava Resurgence.
• Level 63 to 70: Get Elemental Orbit, then dependingon preferences, any/all of Lightning Lasso, Earthgrab Totem Nature's Swiftness,you could also take 2 points into Elemental Warding, Ancestral Defenseor Go with the Flow. There are no wrong options, depending on what you arestruggling with. You can also pick any of those earlier during the leveling process; it is largely personal preference, how fast you want to go, whether you take pausesor grind non-stop... The elemental tree picks are also down to preferenceand what you feel you need more. You can get Oath of the Far Seer to havea stronger Ascendance you can use much more often. You can get Rolling Magma for more Primordial Waves along with Primordial Surgefor more single-target (generally overkill), or Splintered Elements if youalso use Liquid Magma Totem if you do big pulls, Searing Flamesto get more Earth Shocks, Flames of the Cauldron and Improved Flametongue Weapon for some basic damage increases. Ieven skip Ascendance for those, as I feel it is overkill for leveling.

1. Start by casting Fire Elemental when a fight is going to last a while.
2. Cast Flame Shock when engaging enemies, with Primordial Wave when it is available. If engaging multiple enemies,cast Primordial Wave on one and Flame Shock on another.
3. Cast Liquid Magma Totem when multiple enemies will be hit by it.
4. Cast Primordial Wave on cooldown. Aim to hit a target not affected by Flame Shock.
5. Cast Lightning Bolt if Surge of Power is active (or Chain Lightning if fighting at least 6 enemies that are close together)
6. Cast Lava Burst whenever it is available.
7. Cast Earth Shockor Earthquake if multiple enemies will be hit by it.
8. Cast Lightning Boltor Chain Lightning if multiple enemies will be hit by it.
9. Cast Flame Shock when you need to move and theenemy will live for a while yet. Otherwise, if you opted to select Frost Shock,you can cast that.
