The Lightforge Armor Set pieces drop from Stratholme, Scholomance, and Upper Blackrock Spire.

Head: Drops off of Darkmaster Gandling in Scholomance
Shoulders: Drops off of The Beast in UBRS (Upper Blackrock Spire)
Chest: Drops off of General Drakkisath in UBRS
Wrists: Drops off of Lord Alexei Barov, Risen Protectors, and Risen Warriors in Scholomance
Hands: Drops off of Timmy the Cruel in Stratholme (Scarlet side)
Waist: Drops off of Rockwing Gargoyles, Rockwing Screechers, Crimson Gallants, and Crimson Guardsmen in Stratholme
Legs: Drops off of Baron Rivendare in Stratholme (Undead side)
Feet: Drops off of Balnazzar in Stratholme (Scarlet side)

Also, the Belt, Bracers, and Gloves are Bind on Equip, whereas everything else is Bind on Pickup.
I hope this helps.

This set is probably the best set out there other than the Field Marshal's Aegis for a retribution Paladin. The Judgement and Lawbringer sets have been modified such that they no longer give decent strength additions, something I personally think is stupid as it is a sign of Blizzard trying to force Paladins into certain roles instead of creating sets with diverse stat mods. The Lieutenant Commander's Aegis gives decent amounts of strength, but it is more likely than not harder to get than Lightforge, as you are required to be Lieutenant Commander in order to obtain the whole set.

In my opinion, this is the hardest (or most annoying) superior class set to complete.

Helm - Last boss in Scholo
Shoulders - The Beast in UBRS
Chest - Last boss in UBRS
Gloves - Last boss in BRD (most painful)
Legs - Last boss in Strat UD
Boots - Last boss in Srat Scarlet
Bracers - BOE drop from Scholo
Belt - BOE drop from Strat Scarlet

Stats are nice, but set bonus is lacking.

For a paladin that specializes more on the retribution side, but also wants to be able to heal well, this is definitely the best set. I am a lvl 60 pally, and this is the set that I definitely want. So far, I have just the feet, but I hope to get the rest in the coming month.

The set gives a good bonus to Strengh and a good enough bonus to intellect for a tank pally to both fight and be able to heal themselves or others when needed. It is important to not think in absolutes when deciding what kind of pally you wanta be - be more sophisticated. Just because you may be more on the retribution side, it is also important to have good intellect, because mana is and should be important to a pally always.

As for the other pally sets, they arent too good for retribution pallys because of the low strength bonus. The Field Marshall set is good but you gotta be a field marshall which takes a long time to get to (money us college kids who also work dont have to spend on WOW every month lol). Honestly, I think the imperial armor set (what I have now until get Lightforge) set is comprible to the other pally sets. What I would suggest to other ret pallys is do what I am doing: get the Imperial Armor set (good enough and not too expensive) with good intellect and agility bonuses on necklace, and the two rings, and then go for the lightforge set.

I love pallys!

Awful helm... :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

You will never ever see more than maybe 15 pallies with the full gear on my server. Maybe one or two pieces, but this NEVER drops. The chest doesn't drop, the legs don't drop, and No one gives two cents about BRDS, plus the gloves dont drop on top of that. Valor is more common than LF bracers by 96%. So yeah, dotn start a plly hoping to get lf on Scarlet crusade thinking youll get LF. I Won't happen this set doesn't drop at all. I understand the idea of it being rare, but blizzard enjoys !@#$ing over pallies in the ass.. hard and cold.

Better off doing MC and other bigger raid type instances or getting pvp gear from vendors. it'll never be worth the time to get whole set.

A small tip to people who have their full Lightforge set: you get the full set bonus when you only wear 6/8 of the equipment (but have the other two items in your bag).

This is probably a bug (in 1.8) but it means you can wear 2 other better +healing items, such as Whitesoul Helm and Abyssal Plate Legplates of Restoration. which gives me all the +6 resistances, +11 healing plus an extra +55 healing from the other items.

Combined with The Hammer of Grace I don't get a bad +healing amount. Hardly Lawbringer/Judgement +healing but still decent.

I have the full set and im a retri pally with alittle in holy spec. This comment is mainly for pallies but also to warriors. I have found now that this set is the best thing for a pally before they begin to farm for thier epic sets. Granted, the Valor set does look appealing for retri pallies, but you can t just look at the aglity and str bonuses and think that this the best set for you. Yes, you would do more dmg snd crit more, but you have to look at the big picture. When I started to farm for class items, I oringinally wanted to get the Valor set, but then I realized that their are ways to make the pally better at dealing dmg than getting Valor. with this set my pally is pretty balanced, with str, stam and spr being my highest stats and int and agl being pretty decent. As a retri pally I do need a good amount of mana ( which I have about 3887 unbuffed), but I dont need it as much as a holy spec. My job is to tank and deal dmg, but I also heal but only really for myslef and others when it is needed. Holy specs go for being a supp healer more. The way I have found to increase str and agl is thro enchants and auxiallary items. Stoneskin Gargoyle cloak, masons fraturnity ring are goos starts to increase agl, but it is mainly thro enchantments that I get the agl I need. But pallies have to remember that even retri pallies agl is not the most inportant stat we need, its str and stam, and this set gives plenty of it. Becuase unless you invest a *!@#load of agl into you gear youre not going to crit more than a warrior just becuase of the way our class is made. Youre going to get more dmg from holy abilities than agl, and with the int, str, and stam this set gives its not a bad way to strat.

I myself have found LF to be excellent for the paladin class.
Now, I'm lvl59 myself, and only got 2 pieces of LF (currently the BoE ones) but I can already imagine how good this set can be for PvP aswell as PvE.

I agree with the poster a couple of posts above, that the gauntlets and boots suck, and it is recommended to work on rank 7 (Unless you don't like PvPing much or just want to wear the full set).

Now, to the point of how this is a good set, is because it gives an adequate amount of STR, STA and INT, which are precisely the stats that Paladins need.

To the bad points, the set bonuses do suck except for the resistance to fear one. The drop rate for the armor itself sucks ASS (Except the LF Shoulders). To make things worse, there is a huge % of pallies around, so prepare to fight for the set part if it drops.

I myself am using an Arcanite Reaper, I already own people like it is and my armor is mainly composed of '... Of the Eagle' stuff. Imagine once I get all this armor set with all those stats.

Conclusion, this is a great pally set pre-MC/BWL. The only bad stuff are the drop rates and the set bonuses. May World of Farmcraft begin!

Ok ive been reading people talkng about the valor and this set. I personally thing that valor is good for warriors, and lf is good for pallies. They can both use them, and there is no thing saying for warrior or for pallies only. I noticed on both things warriors were both saying *this set is for warrors* and pallies saying *that this is for pallies*. I have a 60 warrior and a 60 pally *i also have no life* and i personally think that lf is for pallies, but a warior could use them as well, and vice-versa for the valor set. Stop whining like a bunch of 7 year olds girls and play the game, after all it is only a damn game. Each person as the right to his opinion, and i respect that, but for gods sake! So warriors id go vair, but if ur on the horde, or there isnt any pallies in ur group go ahead and roll for lf, and pallys, stick to lf, yes u and warriors are both plate-wearers, but valor i think is made nire for warrios.

Im sick and tired of everyone saying warriors are meant for taking and not dps... warriors are not only tanks, otherwse there wouldnt be arns nd fury spec.

Im also sick of hering *pallies cant dps and are only healers...Thats not true either.

My pally kills warriors, and my warriors can kil pallies. END OF STORY

Posted on WoW General Forums, seems credible so far. Here's the look for the upgrade tier 0.5 set in patch 1.10

Well I disagree. If you look at the overall bonus stats of the equip bonuses, Soulforge comes out on top. Sorry if my calculations are a bit off, but most of this is taken off the blizzard website.

Agility: Even though you have zero agility, Lightforge agility bonuses for a paladin comes out to roughly an additional +1.1% critical strike chance and +44 armor points. The Soulforge set gives you roughly +3% crit chance (or around +60 agility per the Blizzard Website).

Spirit: 69 vs 44 ... even though it looks like you are losing around 1.5 mana/sec with the drop in spirit, the equip bonuses from 12 mana per 5 second comes out roughly to +2.4 mana/sec ... so once again, you are again gaining around another 15 spirit or so from the Soulforge set.

Intellect: Plus it helps that also you are gaining 500 more mana with the increase in intellect.

Stamina: -100 health with Soulforge ... but once again we are Paladins ... I think in the long run, +500 mana is definately more desireable versus +100 health. At least for me regardless the build. :)

Lightforge Set
Armor: 3622
Strength: 94
Agility: 22
Stamina: 116
Intellect: 68
Spirit: 69

Soulforge Set
Armor 3887
Strength: 98
Agility: 0
Stamina: 106
Intellect: 104
Spirit: 44
Total Equip Bonuses:
up to an additional 94 to damage/healing by magical spells
+3% to critical strike
+12 mana per 5 sec.

I heard, well, read... that the droprates are increased.

I whish it was true but I can't confirm it, I have all the items but the chest and the helm and I've been grinding like mad to get them, especially the helm, I've been in Scholo like 20 times after the patch and the damn thing is still yet to drop.

And UBRS for the chest, don't get me started on that one... I went there like 10 times in a row, and the first time I decided to skip it... guess what... the friggin' thing dropped, and what happened, it got sharded, no palas in the grp, ffs.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I finally have full Lightforge armor set!I think it's good looking armor though the helm isn't the best looking.
To gaining this full armor set took me around two weeks, but it was worth it. I dont think im going to get SF armor because i think it's a waste of money since you can't get them by drop. So i will go for Tier 1 more than 0,5.

So i will next tell how did i get this armor.

Lightforge bracers, Bought from AH for 5g

Lightforge belt, Bought from AH for 7g

Lightforge gauntlet's Timmy dropped from Stratholme Scarlet side. It is a Ghoul that appears when you have killed every scarlet outside the building. Got these on my second run.

Lightforge boot's This dropped from Balnazzar in Stratholme scarlet side too. Balnazzar is the last boss in there and pretty easy to kill. Got these on my third run.

Lightforge Legplate's This dropped from Baron in stratholme. He is the last boss in there. Got these on my third run too.

Lightforge Breastplate This dropped from General Drakkisath in UBRS. It is the last boss it there. Got these on my fift run. And ill say i did like 30 run's in there but killed Drakkisath only 5 times, So it isnt easy to get him down, the main reason is this; well it is an 10 man raid instance and you usualy may have problem to find players that can play theyr classes decentlyand also when you put a 10 man raid grp there allways ppl that need to leave when doing the instance.

Lightforge Spaulders This dropped from The Beast in UBRS. Got these on my fift run too.

Lightforge Helm This dropped from Darkmaster in Scholomance. Got these on my 20 run. This part was pain to get. It dropped on my very first run in scholo, but guess what a warrior needed it and won it i was like omgf where does warrior need int and spirit! warrior should never roll for LF! NEVER! Well after fife runs it dropped again, but guess what now i got a f**ing DC when the loot's came on the screen. Then i think it dropped next time on my 18 run, but then a rogue ninja came and won it and told he was sorry :O. At this point i was pissed so much, then i asked some guildies to come help me get it and finally after few more run's it finally dropped and also the epic staff Headmaster's charge dropped too and we lukily had a wlock whit us that freaked out and ofc he did get it :)

And last here is the picture of it. THIS IS GOLD!

I have to agree with many of your comments. The Soulforge armor upgrade is far too expensive and difficult. I have all Lightforge armor, with the exception of boots and legs. Incredibly, it has taken me just over 2 months to get 6/8 pieces. Quite honestly I believe this to be a great set in order for you to start raiding with and going for your tier 1 sets.

As far as warriors being better than a pally, I have to say that warriors can hold aggro way better than a pally. The paladin is really a support character. They are diverse in the sense of off tanking, off healing, and buffing. Warriors are better tanks, but each class has their own strengths and weaknesses.

Paladins Tier 0 isnt made for healing, it's meaned for Holy and retribution build paladins. And if you dont want to wear some cloth over you can get still good healing gear, so basicly if u want good plate healing gear upragade this to Tier 0,5 or get some Peacekeeper armor from ZG if you dont want to wear cloths etc, it gives mana reg and healing also it gives you the spell dmg.

At this moment i have Tier 2 and +451 Spell dmg and it owns alot, it's very nice when you can make 600-800 dmg judgement's and divine farvor combined whit Holy shock you can easily crit +1200 whit ZHC :)

Kommentar von Nizeth

For me it is one of the worst designed set in classic.

No healing power for Holy Paladin.
Not enough Strength, Agility and Attack Power for AP Retribution Paladin.
Lack of defensive stats for Protection Paladin.
Even SP Retribution Paladin will get much more DPS from cloths than this.

The only one who is able to use this is SP Retribution Paladin, who haven't enough good items and have 6 pieces to get spell damage proc.
