Protection Warrior Stat Priority

This page ranks Protection Warrior secondary stats by the share of secondary rating actually worn on top Mythic raid and Mythic+ parses (updated 2026-09-03), not by simulation weights. The percentages show how top players allocate their gear, so the priority reflects real choices at the highest level. In raid, Haste leads at 40.6%, followed by Critical Strike at 31.9%, Mastery at 16.4%, and Versatility at 11.1% — the string is Haste > Crit > Mastery > Vers. In Mythic+, Haste is even more dominant at 44.0%, while Critical Strike drops to 24.3%, Mastery rises to 18.0%, and Versatility sits at 13.7%. The key takeaway: Haste is consistently the most worn stat in both content types, but the gap between Haste and Crit narrows in raid. When gearing, use these numbers as a guide—if you're balancing stats, prioritize Haste first, but don't ignore Crit's significant share, especially in raid.
