All WoW The War Within Tier Sets

Tier sets in World of Warcraft are often one of the most memorable parts of an expansion, whether it’s the iconic looks, powerful set bonuses, or a mixture of both. The War Within continues the tradition of tier sets with distinctive visuals and effects tailored to all thirteen Classes. Here’s every tier set in The War Within so far.

All Tier Sets in World of Warcraft: The War Within

WoW: The War Within currently has one tier set for each class, available as drops from the Nerub-Ar Palace Raid. Remakes of the iconic Tier 2 sets are also available from WoW’s 20th Anniversary event, though these are purely used as transmog.

Every tier set has four different color variations linked to the difficulty they drop from (LFR, Normal, Heroic, and Mythic). Gladiator and Elite PvP sets also feature two extra color variations.
