Tier 9 is the armor set associated with the Crusaders' Coliseum, released in patch 3.2. Awarded by the Argent Crusade, tier 9 is designed to ready players for the crusade's eventual march on Icecrown Citadel to take on the Lich King.

Each set consists of five pieces. In contrast to tier 7 and tier 8, there are three levels of tier 9 instead of the usual two:

• ____ of Conquest: item level 232 (Purchasable through Justice Points, tier 9 gear.
• ____ of Triumph: item level 245 (10-player Heroic mode (Tribute Chest only) and 25-player mode (all bosses). Purchasable through Justice Points with 1 drop).
• ____ of Triumph: item level 258 (25-player Heroic mode (Tribute Chest only)).

No matter which level of tier 9 is worn, all pieces count towards the same set bonuses, much like in earlier tiers of gear. Each faction has their own flavor of the items, they are functionally identical, but have different artwork and names.

Item level 232 pieces are bought with Justice Points.
Item level 245 pieces require 1.5 times as many Justice Points as the Item level 232 pieces, as well as [Trophies of the Crusade].

Head	50	75 1
Shoulder	30	45 1
Chest	50	75 1
Hands	30	45 1

Item level 258 pieces are "purchased" with armor tokens. Unlike previous raid gear tokens, these are not restricted by armor location.

  •  Hunter sets are named after Alleria or Vereesa Windrunner and Sylvanas Windrunner
  •  Mage sets are named after Khadgar and Sunstrider Dynasty
  •  Paladin sets are named after Turalyon and Lady Liadrin

  •  Shaman sets are named after Farseer Nobundo and Thrall
  •  Warlock sets are named after Kel'Thuzad and Gul'dan
