What spec would make the most efficient use out of the bonuses? Prot or Ret? It gives bonus armor, chance on hit to increase potency of spells, and some resistances.
Thing is that dungeon sets were meant to be versatile with their stats so any spec could technically use it. I would say Ret would have the best time with it, since they don’t need the same amount of MP5 that holy and prot need. If you wanted a prot set then you would get the deathbone set, every piece has MP5 and its set bonuses are for tanking, literally made for prot pally. After Ret I would say its a mix up between the last two specs, any spec can use this in dungeons and be just fine during a fight, just you would run out of mana fast without the MP5
and drinking after every fight/every other fight will be annoying
Now the second dungeon set on the other hand is way more versatile and I think every spec wold have a good time with it.
Your comment about the MP5 makes a lot of sense. Running out of mana effects Ret the least since they can always resort to white damage, whereas prot would lose out on threat.
The original Lightforge set with winged helmet looked so cool, not like the junk new model.
