What the full set adds
Worn together the 8 pieces of Borean Embrace add 57 Agility or Intellect, 82 Stamina and 34 Critical Strike. The current build records 10 item versions of those 8 pieces, one per difficulty, and the totals here take the highest item level version of each slot.
- Agility or Intellect
- 57 on 8 pieces
- Stamina
- 82 on 8 pieces
- Critical Strike
- 34 on 4 pieces
Agility or Intellect is the primary stat, and Critical Strike is the only secondary rating the set carries, at 34 across 4 pieces.
Armor, slots and requirements
Borean Embrace is a leather armor set covering Head, Shoulder, Chest, Wrist, Hands, Waist, Legs and Feet, recorded in the current build as 10 items across those 8 pieces.
That leaves Neck, Back, Finger and Trinket to be filled from outside the set, 4 of the twelve armor slots.
The pieces run from item level 32 to 35 and need character level 27 to 29.
The pieces bind when equipped, so they can change hands before they are worn.
The client files the set under Wrath of the Lich King.
Sold to a vendor those 8 pieces return 1g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Arctic Helm at 15s.
Wearing the set
The bonuses come in at 2 and 4 pieces, out of the 8 pieces this set can put on a character at once.
Every bonus is live once 4 pieces are on, which leaves 4 slots free for gear from outside the set without losing anything.
