Blacksteel Battleplate is a plate armor set of 6 pieces covering Head, Shoulder, Chest, Hands, Legs and Feet.

That leaves Neck, Back, Wrist, Waist, Finger and Trinket to be filled from outside the set, 6 of the twelve armor slots.

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

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 6 pieces return 184g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Blacksteel Legplates at 41g.

Wearing the set

The bonuses come in at 2 and 4 pieces, out of the 6 pieces this set can put on a character at once.

Every bonus is live once 4 pieces are on, which leaves 2 slots free for gear from outside the set without losing anything.
