Tier 0 armour sets, also known as Dungeon Set 1, are sprinkled all around the high-level dungeons. They are not the best pre-raid loot, certainly not for healers or tanks, but will do fine as all-around sets. Additionally, they’re required to turn in for the Tier 0.5 armour sets, also known as Dungeon Set 2, when those quests come out. Here’s where everything drops, according to my memory and backed up by Wowhead.

All Pants from Baron Rivendare in Strat UD

I, for one, cannot wait to run through these dungeons again and have them be challenging, where the gear actually means something.
Short post today, but more coming soon. Tell me, what are you excited about for Classic?
Kurn, could you do a primer on Holy Paladin healing in Classic? (Both raid and dungeon healing if possible) I started back in Burning Crusade healing on my pally once I got 70 and loved it ever since but I know classic was a whole different animal in Vanilla. From what I understood most of Paladin healing in a raid was actually buffing everyone then healing for a bit until you start the whole buffing process over again. But I would really appreciate your thoughts on the matter.
Cyranor – I can certainly do so! I’ve been mulling over how to tackle it and have a partly-finished draft. Keep your eyes peeled. :)
