Every piece is item level 44 and needs character level 40.

Only a Warrior can equip these pieces.

Every piece binds when it is picked up, so no part of this set can be traded or bought from another player.

The client files the set under Warlords of Draenor.

Sold to a vendor those 5 pieces return 161g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Blackhand's Chestguard at 40g.

Wearing the set

The bonuses come in at 2 and 4 pieces, out of the 5 pieces this set can put on a character at once.

Every bonus is live once 4 pieces are on, which leaves 1 slot free for gear from outside the set without losing anything.
