Armor, slots and requirements

Contender's Defense is a set covering Head, Shoulder, Chest, Wrist, Hands, Waist, Legs and Feet, recorded in the current build as 50 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.

Every piece is item level 39 and needs character level 35.

The pieces bind when equipped, so they can change hands before they are worn.

The client files the set under Mists of Pandaria.

Sold to a vendor those 8 pieces return 1g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Contender's Silk Cowl 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.
