The new shoulder enchants

Does anyone know how it works? Will you have to have the whole tier set before you can enchant the bonus? I hope not, cuz I cant wait till I have ZG 5p on my mage.

Im having a ball pvp grinding on my mage but I cry a little inside when I cast a 2.5 sec spellfrost and it hits for 500. =( lol

But when I have frost orb up I can kill anyone no problem. =)

I can’t find any info on this either. Where are they? How do they work? I feel like blizz has been radio silent about them ever since the off-hand mention months ago.

I hope you dont have to have completed the tier set to be able to enchant the bonuses.

What has been said is that you’ll get the currency “almost passively” from the activities. So from that I think you just need to do the activity (probably the Light’s Hope dailies coming in P7).

Then just purchase the glyphs (we’ll call them glyphs since they function exactly like the glyphs did originally; one-time use).

Tying it to ‘if a set has been completed’ would be an undertaking they are unlikely to pursue. - They’d have to make a new system (behind the scenes) to track if you’ve gotten your T2.5 pants or not.

Now, what they’ll probably will do is keep the T3 set bonuses off the vendor until (if) they add a new raid tier.

One question I do have is…can we pick up Set Bonuses from other role sets. Like, can a DPS warrior pick up, say, Immovable Might’s 6p for increased damage in Gladiator stance. While wearing 6/6 Unstoppable Might, which also has a +10% increased damage in Gladiator stance.

Good question.

Okay, I found info about them. On a personal twitter account, as usual.

Seems like they’re just going to be single-use items that you buy with a new currency and apply like shoulder enchants (but stack on top of any normal shoulder enchants like the ST one)

You do not need to acquire the tier pieces to buy them. ZG and AQ sets are also included; pretty much every tier bonus from T1 → T2 (maybe T2.5? not sure) is available on them.

Thats great news. Cuz after getting exalted with ZG on 3 toons. Its taking forever on my mage.

I can’t wait till I get r13 gear and that shoulder enchant, with flask and fort im at 10k health on my mage currently.

How they detect that you playing dps or tank warrior? There is no clear separation of specs in classic.

Not sure which shaman set bonus will be more oppressive in PvP. Guess I will try them all.

Maybe ZG set might be best for ele.

heh ya 10% is massive.

“Does not stack with similar effects.”

I believe Valor of Azeroth (Warrior’s new shout) doesn’t stack with Dragonslayer buff because they both buff crit chance.

So in the example I mentioned. They could might do a check to see if a specific spell/ability is buffed by a Tier Set and then make it so other Tier Set bonuses wouldn’t stack with it.

as far as im aware on the ptr you could stack different set bonuses.
