Raid best in slot
No raid is open in WoW Forever yet, so the pre-raid list above is the best in slot a Frostfire Mage can wear today: dungeon drops, crafted gear, pre-raid quest rewards and Tarnished badge vendor items. Raid best in slot is added to this page, beside the pre-raid list, once the first raid opens and its loot is simmed.

How this list is made
Every slot is the item our reference search measured best for Frostfire Mage on the MythicSim Forever engine, 10,000 iterations against a level 63 raid boss, among gear a level 60 character can get before the first raid: dungeon drops, crafted gear, pre-raid quest rewards (your faction's version) and items from the Tarnished badge vendor. Raid drops, reputation upgrades and later recipes stay out, with a few named exceptions such as the Arathi Basin staff.
It is the same gear the Frostfire row of the tier list and the trinket board use, so every number on those pages is simmed on this set. Your own best gear depends on what you already own: paste your character into Forever Quick Sim and use Best Gear to compare your bags.
Item stats and sources come from engine a667dce84, which models Forever client data 1.60.1.70425. Items marked Stats hidden have Forever stats Blizzard has not revealed yet, so the sim uses their Classic stats.

Is there a raid BiS list for Frostfire Mage in WoW Forever?
Not yet. No raid is open in WoW Forever, so pre-raid gear is the best a character can wear. Raid best in slot is added to this page once the first raid opens and its loot is simmed.
Why are some items marked Stats hidden?
Blizzard reveals an item's Forever stats only once it has dropped on a live server. 3 of the 14 items on this list have not been revealed yet, so the sim uses their Classic stats, and those picks can change once the real stats are known.
