What the full set adds

Worn together the 5 pieces of Dreadnaught Battlegear add 30 Strength or Intellect, 39 Stamina, 42 Critical Strike and 30 Haste. The current build records 15 item versions of those 5 pieces, one per difficulty, and the totals here take the highest item level version of each slot.

Strength or Intellect
30 on 5 pieces
Stamina
39 on 5 pieces
Critical Strike
42 on 5 pieces
Haste
30 on 5 pieces

Strength or Intellect is the primary stat on every piece that carries one. Of the secondary ratings Critical Strike is the heaviest at 42 across 5 pieces, ahead of Haste.

Armor, slots and requirements

Dreadnaught Battlegear is a plate armor set covering Head, Shoulder, Chest, Hands and Legs, recorded in the current build as 15 items across those 5 pieces.

That leaves Neck, Back, Wrist, Waist, Feet, Finger and Trinket to be filled from outside the set, 7 of the twelve armor slots.

The pieces run from item level 1 to 35, and each one needs character level 30.

5 of the 5 pieces carry sockets, 8 in total.

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 Wrath of the Lich King.

Sold to a vendor those 5 pieces return 45g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Heroes' Dreadnaught Legplates at 11g.

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.
