Does this armor require Master Blacksmithing? I want to go Weaponsmith but if this thing is Armorsmith only... I might just change my thoughts.

Kommentar von Thottbot

aint all that good for 160 ores... it needs more stats... Armorsmiths need some loving..

Kommentar von Thottbot

Alot of people have put down this piece...saying it takes too long to get all the mats, armorsmiths only, etc...esp when you get the Ornate Adamantanium Breastplate which is arguably better for doing a relatively easy quest line.

What everyone is missing here is the +19 to fire resist...which is amazing for Onyxia / Molten Core....you cannot do either of those as a tank without heavy duty fire resistance (200+ ideally)...this is more of a piece you would use specifically for those two places...making it a great item.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You know, you guys can knock this stuff all you want, but I'm ~still~ gonna have my Cow Armorsmith running around in it for sheer spiff factor.

Kommentar von Thottbot

People are also missing the fact that it has 817 AC. The only other chest pieces with a higher AC are the Wrath and Judgement Set pieces, which no profiles on a non hacked serever have :) And you can wear it at 54! I'm so getting me one till my valor plate drops (647 AC) and still keeping it for MC later! :)

First off thank you all for discussing this piece in such detail. I picked this plan up last night and had wonderful dreams of selling a ton of these at the AH. Boy was i mistaken. First off, i thought the ore was a one:one ratio for creating bars......I WAS STOKED! Went to the AH bought myself 20 DI ore, and got the Heart of Fire (or whatever its called) dirt cheap. I was certain that my financial woes were going to be a distant memory. Now after reading the above messages i find myself regreting the day i decided to become an armorsmith. Please tell me that there is a silver lining to the armorsmith's dark cloud. I know of the Lionheart Helm......only takes about 400-500g to make (lol), and i have a few other DI pieces, but where and when do the pieces come that we can actually start making some money on?

I thought it was interesting to read about the fire resistance and how it relates to the MC and other fire related instances......I now know what i should be striving for, well at least a short term goal.

If people are so worried about the lack of stats, why not enchant it? Is there a enchantment that could give this piece the stats that people are looking for?

Kommentar von Thottbot

So from what I see this is the ONLY piece that is BoP. Is that correct? Couse if it is I will seriusly think twice about going armorsmith becouse of all the DIO you have to give away just to get the plans. Can anyone give me some insight on what armors are BOP and which are BOE, and do waeponsmit have anything similar?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I'm a pally specced 31 prot, 20 holy...what role will I play in MC? Will I have to heal and cleanse?

Would it be worth the time and effort to get 150-250+ fire res for a pally?

Kommentar von Thottbot

i think that set is a really cool set f�r a 60 pala or warrior

Kommentar von Thottbot

blizz make it boe! i cant believe it

Kommentar von Thottbot

For armor that is so hard to make in terms of gathering materials for, blizzard should add set bounus for dark iron plate, like what you would see in the Imperial Plate armor and Darksoul. Maybe something like +20 defense or + 40 attack power.

I also think blizzard add set bounus for all craftable end game armor, that way people will make it and use it for more than just that one or two places.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Can I just say that this helm is totally UGO? I mean, it doesn't even match. The black is like a grayish-green and the red is to orange. The rest of the set looks hot tho. (if u get the set definately hit "do not show helm")

Kommentar von Thottbot

Dude not everyoe is epic'd like you so a lot of people need this IE: me only 2/8 might and your server is wierd....calls it RF? not FR - Fire Resistance?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Okay right, there's much better gear out there.. who cares if you have might or wrath or whatever.. show off in /1 but don't diss "lower" gear here...

Dark Iron, the entire set (some pieces aren't really worth the mats but..) is VERY nice for a new MC guild where the MT doesn't have that high FR yet.. We starting MC this friday and I'm getting this BP/Shoulders, after a run or two farming I plan on getting the helm and bracers, definatly worth it until I get epics from MC drops.

Kommentar von Thottbot

*unlearns blacksmithing just to relearn it and change from weaponsmith to armorsmith*

jesus christ! who didnt tell me how much FR an armorsmith had at his disposal...after getting revered with TB
*gets the hell to work*

Kommentar von Thottbot

Tell me if that works...Unlearning weapon and retaking Armour. Because I though it was not possible. I know they changed it for Engineers to go from Goblin to Gnomish and vica versa, but for Blacksmiths ?

Keep me posted plz !

TBC: Blacksmiths will be allowed to change specializations.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i plan to make a warrior that reminds me of my fave soul caliber character, and thus am doin master swordsmith. so someone PLZ announce when DI plate is BOE...as for the helm i agree, very fugly lol

Kommentar von Thottbot

I saved for weeks to craft this item. The 20 bars and the hearts.

Never thought to look in the Blacksmith tool for the words "Binds when picked up." Built it for my friend went to trade it to him and it was soul bound. I've never crated something that only binded to me.

How stupid...

Kommentar von Thottbot

Since BC came along it's now possible for weaponsmiths to make this item.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

where u get the recipie for this? plans in brd or thorium brotherhood rep?

edit: Ribbly screwspigot in the bar drops it

Well there are a few BoE Dark Iron Items, too. For example the Dark Iron Shoulders (510 AC 10 Stam 10 Fireres) I just made my Dark Iron Plate today, was fun getting 160 Dark Iron ores... There are Epic Dark Iron pieces too, like the Dark Iron bracers which can only be acquired by getting reputation with the Thorium Brotherhood. I think it's gonna be a lot of work to actually get one of these recipes because you can only increase your reputation by delivering Dark Iron or the rare Stuff like Fiery Core which only drops at Molten Core. Have Fun.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

if any alliance is selling this please send me a tell character name Kaerus :)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

And it really rocks ^^

Kommentar von Allakhazam

you can vendor it but thats it i'm just wondering if they are gonna make this into a full fledged set or not

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Everyone should be farming the mats for the epic BP of the Chromatic Flight, not this because not every warrior is a BS.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does this armor worth 20 dark iron bars?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

7 pieces
spans levels 53-60

armor : 4420
stamina* : +79
agility : +12
fire resistance : +168

* one piece, Dark Iron Boots, has no set attribute other than Fire Resistance and armor, having a random enchantment instead (you get "Dark Iron Boots of..." in other words) - this total is without the Boots

Bought plans:

Dark Iron Boots
Dark Iron Bracers
Dark Iron Gauntlets
Dark Iron Helm
Dark Iron Leggings

from Lokhtos Darkbargainer in the bar in Blackrock Depths - you must span the entire reputation scale with Thorium Brotherhood in order to get the full set of plans

Picked up plans:

Dark Iron Plate
dropped by Ribbly Screwspigot in the bar in BRD

Dark Iron Shoulders
found inside Blacksmithing Plans
or dropped by Doomforge Dragoon or Fireguard in BRD

Materials:

Dark Iron Bars: 72 (or 576 dark iron ore)
Lava Core: 19
Fiery Core: 17
Core Leather: 8
Blood of the Mountain: 2
Heart of Fire: 9

Considerations:

- Not a "real" set - no completion bonuses (2, 3, 5, 7 piece bonuses etc)
- Dark Iron Plate is Bind on Pickup
- All but the Dark Iron Shoulders require Armorsmith blacksmithing specialization to make.
- All require trips to BRD to make: to smelt the dark iron bars and to create the items on the Black Anvil where Incendious spawns.
- Very high FR rating when all pieces are equipped (compare to epic sets for warriors/paladins - +34 or +40 FR total on those, +168 on this one)
- Slightly higher armor rating than Lawbringer or Might gear (4306), significantly less than Judgement or Wrath (4925)

In my opinion, with a little tweaking, Blizzard could have made this a very nice mid-range set, or for the crowd who could never hope to finish out an epic set for their plate class. Just needs set tier bonuses, change the chest to BoE, and add some slight other stat increases (in the same range as the stamina total, to strength for example)

So, this is one of the better things that armor smiths can make. Yet, cant sell or give away?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Many armorsmiths are only amorsmiths because of the dark iron items. These armor pieces are extremely usefull against major raid bosses who have fire atacks. Most armorsmiths with dark iron get into raid grps easily because of the large amount of resist they have to fire. So they might be BoP but all the dark iron items are more essential than any weapon a weaponsmith can make. Plus this is the highest AC of any rare plate available, and the other 2 dark iron are the highest AC of any item of their kind.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I can make on Eitrigg server horde side, provide mats +tip and ill be happy to make them for you, /w to the name of Jezslayer.

Kommentar von Kub0ss

Dark Iron Plate is Bind on Pickup so watch out for that if you're crafting the set for someone else.
Without it the materials for the set are:

Lava Core x18
Fiery Core x16
Core Leather x8
Blood of the Mountain x2
Heart of Fire x1
Dark Iron Bar x40

With Dark Iron Plate the materials for the full set are:

Lava Core x18
Fiery Core x16
Core Leather x8
Blood of the Mountain x2
Heart of Fire x9
Dark Iron Bar x60
