Sweetest tier 2 set in-game.

Honestly, besides the look this set is wonderful for the Paladin that wants to do some good damage. The set bonuses absolutely rock when it comes to Judgement damage output. Combine this set with a couple of other powerful goodies and you have a near unstoppable iron-fisted Judge.

This set actually does more or equal to damage of that of the tier 2.5. A holy specced paladin with a Lok'amir il Romathis ( 30 spell power) is extremely powerful.

8/8 Judgement gives +200 spell damage and healing (set included)
5/5 Avenger gives +153 spell damage and healing (set included)
Now, if you add the Bracer, Belt, and Gloves of Judgement to Avenger, it does total of +198 Spell damage and Healing.

so if i would go PvPing, i'll rather have 5/5 avenger with 3/8 judgement then Full judgment since it have the about the same spell damage, int, mana/5sec, and stamina but way more strength, agility, spirit and critical strike (judgement don't even have any criticals or agility).

3pc bonus is now 40yd range instead of +10yd, so that it cannot stack with Aura Mastery in the Holy Tree.

Drops for Horde since patch 2.0(As well as all other paladin sets).

Locations:

Head-Onyxia's Lair-Onyxia
Shoulders-Black Wing Lair-Chromaggus
Chest-Black Wing Lair-Nefarian
Pants-Molten Core-Ragnaros
Gloves-Black Wing Lair-Ebonroc
Boots-Black WIng Lair-Broodlord Lashlayer
Belt-Black Wing Lair-Vaelastrasz the Corrput
Bracers-Black Wing Lair-Razorgore the Untamed

Not only is it the coolest looking tier 2 armor set in the game its also a very good a viable option for paladins. This set increases your healing (though not as much as lawbringer and redemption) and your spell damage output. Its Armor value is very high which is not too weird for plate. Also this set helps with Generating aggro by using holy attacks such as consecration with righteous fury. it also boosts your dps capability. This set is not the easiest in the game to obtain however to get the full set youll need to venture to MC, Onyxias Lair, and BWL.

For those like me that want to pick up the purple set that you've seen like this: (Taken from posts by krawnight, https://vanillawowdb.com/?user=krawnight https://vanillawowdb.com/?user=krawnight )

Best lookin set in game.

Still the greatest looking set in this game. I have a few friends going back to BWL just for the sake of this in its god-awesome glory.

this is probably on of the coolest looking sets in the game and is also really good.

https://vanillawowdb.com/?compare=27539:27897:27790:27548:27748:28221:27489:27457 This is how the BC version looks like together, view it with the model viewer, it looks pretty awesome =)

I was just trying to give you a look on how it looks, i don't see a reason for the downrate(s)

Here's what Judgement Armor looked like before patch 1.09:

New link: http://i.imgur.com/0CLwv.jpg http://i.imgur.com/0CLwv.jpg

With the upcoming patch 3.2.2 and the return of Onyxia's Lair, the model of the Judgement helm will be used in new level 80 gear.

I'm surprised nobody has linked this here:
https://vanillawowdb.com/?itemset=784 https://vanillawowdb.com/?itemset=784

It has the same looks as Judgement, but then in grey edition. It is no longer availble to players, except those who prize themselves lucky enough to have one in bank. It was dropped during the WotLK invasion event, just before the launch. (You know, ghoul-zombie invasion omgzz QQ) Players could earn necrotic stones by defeating Scourge foes, and could hand them in for nice trinkets (including a bubble hearthing paladin npc) and two pieces of this set: Gloves and Shoulders.

The Pants and Breastplate were dropped by rare mobs that spawned during the event. The competition was harsh.

I myself use the following items to make the set look complete:
https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=24388 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=24388  (belt - perfect match)
https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=15138 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=15138  (cloak - lucky find)
https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=15217 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=15217  (weapon, cool pattern)
https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=28166 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=28166  (shield, matches relatively well)
https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=17105 https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=17105  (Mace, also looks really sweet)

Combined, this set makes you look more like a Neutral judge instead of the Vindictive aura that the normal judgement set creates (and the corrupted that the purple one inspires). I've used it a lot myself, and must consider myself a proud owner of this, sadly, no longer obtainable set.

Just got Royal Crest of Lordaeron and it looks really cool with T2.

https://vanillawowdb.com/?compare=16951:16952:16953:16954:16955:16956:16957:16958:43085 https://vanillawowdb.com/?compare=16951:16952:16953:16954:16955:16956:16957:16958:43085

Now I just need a great-looking one handed weapon to complete my walking-around-Dalaran vanity set. :)

Hoping to find something from the T2 era, or at least pre-BC, for a little authenticity.

Any suggestions?

I played around with the ""Curropted"" purple set of this and figured out a cool looking sword/shield combo. I think they match eachother nice. The only downside to it IMO is the wooden planks on the back of the shield. Make it look a little to flimsy at the right angle. But hey? Nothing is ever perfect. I can definetly see myself trying to get this set after I get my paladin up to lvl 80.

https://vanillawowdb.com/?compare=23054:27539:27790:27548:27748:28221:27489:27457:27897:20688 https://vanillawowdb.com/?compare=23054:27539:27790:27548:27748:28221:27489:27457:27897:20688

This is a small FYI to most people who now no longer understand what the mechanics of a good paladin DPS was back in classic WoW

At the time there was 1 judgement, Judge. Your different judgments today were that 1 move at the time which changed depending on your seal active. If you wanted to judge wisdom, you must have the seal of wisdom up, so on and so forth for each judge. Seals, however, were only 30 secs long (much unlike the 30 min we have in current Wrath era). Following a Judge however you would have to reapply your seal as each judge would consume the active seal. When you see librams like https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=23203 this (changed in cataclysm, used to reduce the mana cost of seals by a fixed amount) it actually wasn't a joke or filler slot. That mattered to maintain your mana supply.

To continue this was also long, long before anyone had heard of https://vanillawowdb.com/?spell=35395 Crusader Strike and no one even dreamed of a paladin getting a https://vanillawowdb.com/?spell=53385 Whirlwind ability. Your damage was your judgement and your auto attack; that was pretty much it. In addition your Judge scaled directly with your spell power. This is why other comments talk of holy paladins being able to do so much damage (in a relative sense of course). Strength was hard to come by for a paladin unless you looked at purely off-set pieces such as blues or independent epics. Drops like https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=19387 Chromatic boots were extremely sought-after and coveted by any DPS warrior or paladin. With no budget wasted on defense, intellect, or spirit, the agility for crit, the 1% hit, this was very well prized indeed by many.

Spell power was a good thing. With the 5pc set giving you more and the judgement bonus from the 8 piece set increasing your only true blue offensive ability, this set was indeed both beautiful and very powerful.

Edit: Updated and corrected the Libram for Cataclysm and adjusted the misnomer of Seal duration and consumption (Thank you Riddel)

T2 = Terminator 2, Terminator 2 = Judgement Day, Judgement = Paladin T2, it's all a part of <i><ins>the game</ins></i>

you can farm the set weekly and get mats for thunderfury in the process

edit : why i was down rated this is a list uself if you want to collect this set

Just got this set completed and I'm wodering... Is it worth to wear it along with https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=46321 Sunglimmer Drape ?

So with the transmogrifier coming in patch 4.3 and the rumor that you have to own the set before you can change to that apperance I see alot of BWL in my future just like alot of other pallys. Time to figure out how to duo or solo this place.

Side note as a draenei it will be nice to own somthing I could never have before.

Absolute best-looking armor set for paladins, period. Its just a shame I can't solo Blackwing Lair for it, due to boss mechanics.

EDIT: Blackwing Lair is now soloable!

Just finished a RP and Transmog guide for accessorizing this set with best weapons/shields/cloaks to compliment the set.

https://vanillawowdb.com/?guide=512/roleplay-and-transmogrification-guide-judgement-set Roleplay and Transmogrification Guide - Judgement Set

Edit: The guide also includes a section for obtaining and fully accessorizing the Purple recolor s well. :)

You don't need a fancy transmog website or link for this set. Remember the following items:

1. Full Judgement Armor
2. Lokamir Il' Romathis
3. Drillborer Disk
4. Red Riding Hood's Cloak
5. Extra undies for those that can't handle the awesomeness.

<i>Ahem,</i> if I may...!

<b>For those on-the-go women Paladins that don't want to fuss with a long (albeit fantabulous) dress in the midst of heated battle against evil...</b>

May I offer a bold, dare I say, <i>lofty </i>substitute:

Behold, the https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=14928 Lofty Legguards - check the link for a corresponding picture with the Judgement set and the Lofty Legguards equipped.

Replace your https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=16954 Long Judgement skirt with a pair of armored leggings that will transform your dress into a daring and tight-fitting one-piece leotard.

&lt;---&gt;
<ins>Leotard</ins>: <i>n </i>1. (Clothing &amp; Fashion) a tight-fitting garment covering the body from the shoulders down to the thighs and worn by acrobats, ballet dancers, etc.
&lt;---&gt;

These particular leg guards compliment the Judgement set nicely by making the lower torso area a one-piece suit, only straying from its color scheme with the faintest hues by the shins and now gives your Paladin a very ""Wonder Woman"" look. The torso part of the legguards fuses together perfectly with your https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=16958 Judgement chest piece with its black color scheme -- it looks as if it were made to match.

The legguards also get to show off your www.aowow.org/?item=16957"">Judgement booties , and not to mention your Holy <i>boo-tey</i>, legs and thighs that will give your friends and foes a glimpse of the Heavens before you administer some https://vanillawowdb.com/?spell=31884 Avenging Wrath !

If you are stuck like me and some items just won't drop, https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=12406"">(Item #12406) and https://vanillawowdb.com/?item=67032"">(Item #67032) are great alternatives to patch up the set for the belt and boots, respectively. I have also posted a screenshot; it is the Dwarf with T2 (in red) above his head.
