Methodology
Healer with Meditation (mana regen while casting) and Mental Strength, so spirit and intellect are worth more than for Holy and crit a bit less. Healing is the reference and spell power counts the same because it heals too. The wand fills the ranged slot: in the beta, at level 20, most levelling is done by wanding, so its DPS scores.
Each item's score is the sum of its stats multiplied by these weights. Percent stats (crit, hit, dodge, parry, block) are weighted per 1%. Weapons add their DPS (per point) and speed ((speed − 2) × weight: positive favours slow weapons). Armour pieces are multiplied by the factor of their type (cloth, leather, mail, plate). Items without a required level (quest rewards) are placed at item level − 5, the rule almost every green and blue in the game follows. On equal score the item with a known source wins.
Heads up: the beta is capped at level 20 and the weights are indicative, tuned for level 60 with no simulations behind them. Sources come from the WoWSims Forever database and, for items that already existed in Classic, from the Classic 1.12 database (CMaNGOS Classic-DB, marked "Classic data": they may change in Forever); an item without a source may not be obtainable yet. Set bonuses and procs are not scored. Everything will change with each build.
Weights live in src/data/statweights.json and the computation in scripts/build-bis.mjs; if a weight looks wrong, tell us.
Stat weights
| Stat | Weight |
|---|---|
| Per point | |
| Mana per 5 sec | 2.8 |
| Healing | 1 |

Pure healer: healing (and spell power) above everything, then mana per 5 s and spirit, which for Holy also adds healing through Spiritual Guidance. Intellect gives total mana and some crit; crit itself is worth it for Inspiration and Holy Spirit. Staff or one-hander + off-hand item, whichever adds up higher.

Shadow damage: spell power (and specific Shadow damage) is what truly matters; spell hit is worth ~12 per 1% up to the 16% cap against bosses, and crit less than for a mage because DoTs do not crit. Spirit restores mana through Spirit Tap and Shadowform does not disable it. The wand scores twice as much as for the healing trees because it is part of real damage while levelling.
