Currently only obtainable after reaching specific pvp rankings, on the release of patch 2.0.1 these will no longer require a pvp rank but instead you will use Honor Points and Battleground Marks as a form of currency to purchase the items.

This is a very good set of armor worn by a lot and to me and considerable amount of others a good set of armor and can do good when whole set is aquired.

Boots Costs 8415 honor points and 20 arathi basin marks
Gloves cost 8415 honor points and 20 alterac valley marks

A year and a half into BC, and this is still the best looking Alliance Warrior set...

By far the best looking armor set in the game, I still throw mine on every once in a while for fun. In the WoTLK beta realms, this armor is still available for purchase, and some of the elite NPC's and one peticular city boss wears this armor. I'm glad Blizzard kept this armor set around.

Are these pieces still worth getting? Depends if you plan to PvP at the 69 brackets for awhile before hitting 70 or 80. Even then, I would say only three pieces are worth getting for the first two set bonuses.

For two pieces, you get an additional 20 stamina, making these armor pieces competitive well into your 60s. While for your third piece, you get the highly important -5 secs off of Intercept; allowing Arms Warriors the use of 15 sec cooldown Intercepts for PvP! For Arms Warriors, Intercept is without doubt, your most IMPORTANT ability, as you can't kill what you can't catch up to; 5 secs off of Intercept can mean the difference between kill or be killed in PvP.

Like I said, these armor pieces are only worth getting if you plan to spend a lot of time in the 69 PvP bracket. Even then, only three pieces are worth getting for the important set bonuses. The three pieces I recommend obtaining are the shoulders, pants, and boots; because all three give +hit rating, a stat that is very difficult to amass in pre-70 gear.

I'm currently working on those pieces myself (already have the shoulders); sure it takes awhile to earn enough honor to obtain these pieces, but the 59 PvP bracket can be insanely fun to compete in at times, and is great experience to becoming a better PvP warrior when you're ready to move up to the major leagues.

Comment by 262181

I'm fairly new to the game, I've been playing for about 2 months. My main was a Night Elf Rogue, but when i reached lvl 34 I created a Night Elf Warrior. I was switching back and forth between the two and ended up liking the Warrior more. So now I'm a lvl 53 Night Elf Warrior and I'm starting to look at sets. I was just wanting to know what the best set there is, I know I'll be in the BG's for a while but I only have the BC expansion. So should I keep working on it and sit at lvl 59 in the bg's and get this set. Or is there a better set I should use. Thank you for your replies.

I have this set. I started getting it before WOTLK and finished getting it after it came out. It is a very good set even if base stats on the pieces can be out done by Outland greens. The set adds up to be extremely powerful in lvl 60 AV. The fact that the greens have more stats does not mean they are better, look at hit rating and crit rating. I am working towards duel wield claymore and this will give me around 7.1k health and 30% crit, also 1.1k AP.

It is very worth getting if you are staying at 60. I advise you do not get this on a main as i find it hard to make myself lvl up as it will begin to be off par into the high 60s. message back for more info on my character.

One thing I have noticed is the bonus armour on this set, despite it being a PvP set designed for a dps role. This shows that warrior used to have a much greater amount of suvivability back in Pre-BC - the melee guy that could take a real punch (or at least thats what Blizzard intended) compared to the other classes. I don't know what happened to this theory but I wish Blizzard had stuck to it, just take a look at Warrior suvivability at Level 80, I'm not saying bonus armor would solve it but it just shows how the recent expansion packs have changed the game so much.

On another note. I would like to agree with Shockna on this one. This is still the most awesome looking PvP set for warriors avaliable, I, amoungst others I know have collected this set at a high level even when it's stats have become obsolete purely for it's looks and what they stand for; the might of the Alliance.

Comment by Escutcheon

It would be very interesting to get a pre bc version of wow and see how different talents, skills and gear worked. If you could go back in time, so to say and get all this gear with the Arcanite Reaper you'd be the scourge of anybody standing in your way.

Comment by Legoslask

I wish Blizzard would use the model for this set in the upcoming expansion, as this is, as stated above, one of the coolest looking sets in the warrior set catalogue. Since Blizzard is reinventing Azeroth, it could be logical that they reinvented the 60-PVP sets.

Comment by 24507

New cost with the marks getting removed in the upcomming patch

Shoulders, Boots and Gloves: 9000 Honor each.

Comment by 542090

is 7K hp from the set and shield good at level 63?

Comment by 528065

The Stormwind Tabard looks really nice with this set particularly if you are going to be getting the shield as well.

Anybody have any suggestions for belt and/or cloak?

Comment by zeroshens

this is my favorite armor set in the game. to me it looks exactly how a knight in the alliance ought to look. i love the giant eagle on the shoulder and the piece of cloth draped on the other shoulder. plus, the helmet also makes your eyes glow blue. you get every piece you would need to give your character a "look" and the armor is bulky in all the right places.

bad ass set. especially considering it was created by the art team in vanilla.

i kept my set in my bank for pure vanity. now that transmogrification will come out next patch i know exactly what i'll be changing my armor to look like!

Comment by seanotd

With patch 4.3 coming out you can now take this set and Transmog it, giving it the stats of any gear you'd like. Saaaay.... Ruthless Gladiator?

Comment by 913443

Blizzard provided an answer here - http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3657275742?page=9#178

The items out in the world (Marshals, Grand Marshal’s, High Warlord, etc) that use the level 60 PvP art are un-transmogrifiable (including the item level 115 stuff that shares the name from Burning Crusade).

In Area 52 a set of vendors has replaced the PvP Vendors who used to live there. Grex Brainboiler, Krixel Pinchwhistle, Tini Smalls, Kezzik the Striker, Big Zokk Torquewrench, and Leeni “Smiley” Smalls. These vendors sell new, transmogrifiable versions of the classic armor to players who have the Feat of Strength for Legionnaire/Knight-Captain or higher under the old PvP system.

I have transmogrified my pvp stuff into this.

But I am still looking for a belt that would match this design.

Any idea ?

Thanks

Comment by FishHead

What's a good tabard to go with this?

Loremaster and Scryer and the only decent ones I've found.

Comment by sebgou

Possible matching belt: Triad Girdle

Comment by GazaC76

I was gutted when i couldn't use this to Transmogrify my gear with it as it looks absolutely awesome, so, i contacted a GM to find out why. Here is his answer

To be able to use this item set to Transmogrify, you need to have been a pvper in Vanilla and earned the title Knight or above under the old system. Then and only then you will be able to use this item set to Transmogrify your gear with. if you have not done this unfortunately you will not be able to do this.

But, if you go to Are 52 there is a vendor there that may be able to help you.

The vendor is already explained in these comments a few times so there is no reason to put a link to who he is.

Just scroll down lol

Hope this clears up for you why you can't TM this gear

Also here is a full explanation for you from Roraks link

The items out in the world (Marshals, Grand Marshal’s, High Warlord, etc) that use the level 60 PvP art are un-transmogrifiable (including the item level 115 stuff that shares the name from Burning Crusade).

In Area 52 a set of vendors has replaced the PvP Vendors who used to live there. Grex Brainboiler, Krixel Pinchwhistle, Tini Smalls, Kezzik the Striker, Big Zokk Torquewrench, and Leeni “Smiley” Smalls. These vendors sell new, transmogrifiable versions of the classic armor to players who have the Feat of Strength for Legionnaire/Knight-Captain or higher under the old PvP system.

There was a bug with the Feat of Strength granting access to these items, but was hotfixed within the last couple of minutes. If you meet the criteria log out and back in and you should be able to access the vendor.

The design intent with the Feat of Strength achievement requirement was specifically to limit these particular art styles to players who earned them through the OG (and relentlessly difficult) PvP honor system, while keeping the door open to reward them to more people in the future.

In a future patch the items sold by the Area 52 vendors will also be renamed ‘Replica of’ to be more consistent with the items sold by the Darkmoon Faire – they’re currently exact duplicates of the original items that allow transmogrification, which is obviously a bit confusing.

Potentially related, since he’s in the same area, Kezzik the Striker sells inaccessible Season 1 Gladiator’s, Season 2 Merciless Gladiator’s, and Season 3 Vengeful Gladiator’s gear to all players, as the majority of that gear didn’t have restrictions.

Comment by wigglemonster

You can not use this set for transmog unless you have the feat of strength of "Warlord", "High Warlord", "Marshal" or "Field Marshal". If you do have the feat of strength, you have to buy a different set of gear to transmog it. I have confirmed that this is correct. This limitation was created so only characters with the feat of strength could wear this gear in transmog form because the actual gear is available for purchase with honor points to everyone. The transmog-able gear can be bought in Area 52 from, Leeni "smiley" smalls (Leeni "Smiley" Smalls)

edit: apparently you only need "Legionnaire/Knight-Captain or higher under the old PvP system", quoted from a blue post on blizzard's forum (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/forum/topic/3657275742?page=9#178).

UPDATE: WoWhead shows this set as removed. It is not removed... You can still purchase it as mentioned above.

Comment by NebulaG

I would just like to confirm something since there isn't much information on this stuff.

You CAN purchase this replica set along with all the weapons and other level 60 pvp gear from Area 52. You need to achieve a rating of 1800 in the CURRENT RBG system. The requirement of earning the title back in Vanilla has been removed, and you are fully able to buy this transmoggable gear on any new character, as long as you achieve 1800 rating at some point. It is also character specific.

Just thought I'd clear that up. :)
