Epic quality Set items. These items are found inside Naxxramas and were introduced in Patch 1.11.

Unlike previous "tiered" sets, these Tier 3 sets are nine piece, with a ring rounding out the set. However, the maximum set bonus is still conferred at 8 pieces - leaving players some freedom to mix and match gear.

How to obtain Tier 3 Armor Sets

You can't get any of these items directly from the bosses in Naxxramas (with the exception of the ring) -- you have to turn in a token plus additional materials to a quest NPC in Light's Hope Chapel to get your item. (In order to obtain the quests to turn-in for your tier 3 set pieces you must first complete Echoes of War) The token system is similar to that of Ahn'Qiraj (20 and 40) and Zul Gurub, in that a particular token can be used by more than one class. In Naxxramas, the Rogue tokens are shared with Warriors, Warlock tokens are shared with Mages and Priests. Paladins, Shamans, Druids, and Hunters share the third and final token class.

Each of the main bosses of a wing drops two tokens, while the other bosses drop one token. The armor slot a particular boss drops will always be the same. The lesser bosses in a particular wing will drop the same armor slot, with the exception of the Abomination wing which has 4 bosses instead of the usual 3. In the Abomination wing, the third boss (Gluth) will drop one token that any of the other lesser bosses can drop.

Kel'Thuzad drops the ring to complete the set, and no turn-in is necessary.

Minor Items

The four "minor" pieces of the set all drop from the first two bosses of the wings, plus all four pieces have a chance to drop from Gluth:

Major Items

The four "major" pieces of the set all drop from the main boss of a wing. Each of these bosses will drop 2 tokens:

Tokens

The materials needed in addition to the tokens vary by class and armor slot. Each set item requires a certain amount of "wartorn <armor class> scraps" (e.g. cloth wearers need "wartorn cloth scraps") which drop off of the trash mobs in Naxxramas. The amount required for each armor slot:

  • Head: 15
  • Shoulder: 12
  • Chest: 25
  • Wrist: 6
  • Hand: 8
  • Waist: 8
  • Leg: 20
  • Feet: 12

For a total of 106 for the entire set.

Other

In addition to the token and scraps requirement, the hand-ins will also require quantities of two of the following five items:
