What the full set adds

The 8 pieces of Contender's Defense carry Intellect, Spirit, Stamina, Hit, Mastery and PvP Power. The current build does not give us a budget row for their item level, so the stats are named here without numbers rather than guessed. The current build records 50 item versions of those 8 pieces, one per difficulty, and the totals here take the highest item level version of each slot.

Intellect
on 8 pieces
Spirit
on 6 pieces
Stamina

Hit

Mastery

PvP Power

Intellect is the primary stat these pieces scale with.

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 450 and needs character level 90.

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

The client files the set under Classic.

Sold to a vendor those 8 pieces return 81g, and the single piece worth most at a vendor is Contender's Satin Pants at 14g.

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.
