WoW Class sets of Amirdrassil – Plate
Amirdrassil is the raid of the Emerald Deam-inspired patch 10.2. It will undoubtedly become one of the highlights of the Dragonflight expansions. And some of its raid class sets will remain among the best ones in the game's history, for sure.
In this particular blog post we'll take a look at plate sets and see how good their appearance is and what their bonuses are. You'll learn all there is to know about the heaviest equipment of the Dream's Hope.
Death Knight
Death Knights are covered with spikes this time: they come out of all the places of the armor. Well, you could say that they literally look sharp. The skill mask without eyes is an interesting idea although an awkward one, practicality-wise. In general the set looks quite fitting for the class: this outfit is all about pain and decay.
Now let's look at bonuses. Let's take them one spec at a time:
Blood bonuses
- What gets upgraded: Heart Strike
- 2-item bonus: It now has a chance to apply the debuff Ashen Decay after one of your Bone Shield charges has been consumed. Ashen Decay: -10% damage to the target, +20% to you for 8 sec.
- 4-item bonus: Ashen Decay now can be applied with Soulreaper (execute damage) and Abomination Limb. Heart Strike and Blood Boil add 1 sec to Ashen Decay's duration.

- 4-item bonus: Magus +0.5 sec duration for each rune spent. Magus gets a new buff: Amplify Damage (+5% damage to you for 10 sec).
These bonuses surely look sweet. We suppose that unholies are especially content with a new minion in their gang!

Paladin
Paladin's set looks very pally. It looks heavy, it looks light and bright, it makes an impression of something a noble knight could put on. All in all, it raises no questions of whether it belong to the class' phantasy – it obviously does. The ornament and other decorations makes it more of a Blood Elvian thing, perhaps, but we're sure that other races will also look great in it.
Now let's see what bonuses it offer for different specs:
Holy bonuses
- What gets upgraded: Glimmer of Light, Daybreak
- 2-item bonus: Whenever Glimmer of Light expires or gets refreshed, the buff Holy Reverberation is applied to an ally or a hostile target. It heals the former and damages the latter for 8 sec. The effect can stack up to 3 times.
- 4-item bonus: Daybreak's cooldown speeds up by 15 sec.

Protection bonuses
- What gets upgraded: Judgement, Consecration
- 2-item bonus: Each cast of it gives you a stack of the Sanctification effect (+1% armor). Once you've reached 10 stacks, your next Consecration gets +200% to healing & damage, while its radius gets +30%. As the Consecration's power-up ends, Sanctification stacks disappear.
- 4-item bonus: Before your powered-up Consecration goes away, your spells can do +20% damage / healing as fire.

Retribution bonuses
- What gets upgraded: Expurgation
- 2-item bonus: Expugnation: +3 sec, +50% damage. When you use Judgement or Divine Toll on targets with Expugnation, the debuff Wrathful Sanction is applied to them. It strikes the target and nearby foes with Holy damage (up to 4 enemies close to the target).
- 4-item bonus: Wrathful Sanctions apply the buff Echoes of Wrath to you. it makes your Templar's Verdict and Divine Storm deal a second strike right after the first one (50% of the first one's power). Judgement doesn't get consumed in the process!
The power-ups are quite versatile and affect many important spells from the most popular rotations. It's possible to get slightly overwhelmed with this variety but it will make you stronger in many ways at once which is a great thing.

Warrior
Warriors look smooth. A striking contrast with death knights who are all covered with needles. And these sets only have some small spikes on gloves – and they don't even look sharp or menacing. The whole set looks like a well grinded stone.
Now let's look at what special effects it has. This time we'll try a table for that:
| specs ↓ | UPGRADE FOR | 2-ITEM BONUS | 4-ITEM BONUS |
|---|---|---|---|
| ARMS | Rend, Sudden Death | Rend: +30 damage, + chance to trigger Sudden Death | Sudden Death: next Execute applies DOT and triggers Thunder Clap (100% additional damage) |
| FURY | Odyn's Fury, Bloodthirst | Odyn's Fury: +50% damage, it makes next 3 Bloodthirsts deal +150% damage with +100% for crit strike against the primary target | Bloodthirst: crits speed up Odyn's Fury cooldown by 2.5 sec |
| PROTECTION | Shield Slam, Thunder Clap, Thunderous Roar | Shield Slam: you get a chance to trigger the following effect with consuming rage: consume all bleed DOTs on a target that you've applied, deal 100% of remaining damage right away, and lower target's damage by 10% for 5 sec. | Reduce target's damage to you by 2% per consumed bleeding DOT. Thunder Clap's cooldown resets. Thunderous Roar's CD speeds up by 1 sec. |
