Good set, I now have the belt and the bracers, need to get the rest.

A few Tips/Facts about the Valor Set:

-An easy set to get because all you need to do is run 5, 10 Man Pug's(Pick up Groups), but its not that great for tanking, or dps even. Better than the greens new 60's will have though.

-Upgrading to Heroism is a long and expensive process, but if you have the time, and money...and DONT run ZG/MC then go for it.

-If your starting MC dont even bother with this set, go straight for blues with +defense/dodge chance on it...it is much better til you get your tier 1 peices. There are also alot of ZG peices that are great for warriors.
(Ex/ Aegis of blood god, bloodlords defender/Bloodsoaked peices)

This is the warrior's tier 0 set. It can be upgraded to the heroism set known as the tier 0.5 set. This set really isn't for tanking, but I guess if you just hit 60 it is better than what you have for tanking/dps so you might want to use it.

If you're thinking of raiding with your warrior (Molten Core+) you shouldn't upgrade them. If you did, your armor would be easily replaced and you would think (why did I do that) because you basically just threw away tons of gold which could've been used for something even better. In fact, with the gold you use to upgrade I believe you can buy your two tier 1 BoE's on your server which are a LOT better for tanking. (This is depending on your server prices though)

For the actual valor set, I would say it is an alright set to get just to replace those greens that you were using before.

This is a good pre-60 set and can be found easily high lvl 5 and 10 man instances (Scholo, Strat, BRS).
Most people dont Upgrade to tier 0.5, heroism, as it can be very expensive and time consuming.

Yeah this set is as random as lightforge really. I mean the cost of gold to get this stuff from the AH will put you a few hundred gold in the hole unless you have a lot of waiting to do looking for cheap prices. On my server Zangarmarsh bracers from either sets can be found for more than 50g a piece. This is an extreme rip off cause u dont need it. bye the time u get the complete set ur gonna be in outlands getting gear for lvl 58 from outlands that kicks blue gear from azeroth ass. look it up i have Doombringer as a sword now then go over and look at some outlands gear and you will see the big diff. I find that it's more wise for both warr and pally to invest in imperial and then get some good outland greens. My advice is stay away from sets like lightforge, valor, soulforge, heroism, and lawbringer and just invest in some crap till u get to outlands. Warrs rule. Pallas also rule with imperial and a good 2h wep like Doombringer till lvl 58 then the outlans stuff kicks in.

Is this set also good for paladins???

what would make some sense, Blizzard should make all this old stuff BOE that way people could get some gear for alts, and give it to them I never see people going into these instance's anymore it would give people a reason to use the old instance for something.

not bad im going back and gona get some cool 60 stuff on my warrior going to attept to get valor and 1 of these cut out when coppy sorry it is a wep drop by the seven axe and steals life and a nice sheild ill put lifesteal on the wep and hp chants and stuff on it hoping for about 10 k hp and ill run around stealing life it sounds fun to me solo brd by stealing life! to get the gear im going to ask my gm to heal me or my other gm for my alt to dps hell cuz he gets da job done im not going for heroism becuz it cost almost 400 g to get a set that is better but not a hole lot
set 1(no wep no shield no neck just the set)
agi=56
str=156
stam=131
arm=3622
set 2 (hero)
agi=50
str=138
stam=150
arm=4185
lose damage in hero gain some tanking but not much and cost set 1 is free just some stats

reminds me of Arcanite reaper, a classic :))

is a great Set for warriors before outland has all of the essentials that a warrior needs(Great Stam and Strength,Decent Agility,and good enogh spirit to lower the amount of Food you need to carry) When my warrior was in his 50s i really wanted to whole set, even in your early 60s some of these items will still be useful, i didnt find some items to replace them, even though im 71 i keep all the pieces i have because this is personally, in my eyes, the coolest looking set ive ever seen and i want the ""real"" set,not the heirlooms,possibly the only one ill get as an heirloom is (wait for it!) ARCANITE REAPER HOOOOOOOOOO!

For what it is worth, a GM told me today, that they should still drop in the 3 instances, They were not on the list for removal! The only thing removed was the ability to upgrade these to Dungeon Set Two, that set has definitely been removed and the quests are gone! He thought that the drop rate has been lowered considerably. I only pray that he is right
