Warlord Set
The Warlord Set
The Warlord Set is the second-highest-tier armor set within Return of Reckoning.
This set comes after the Invader Set, and requires Renown Rank 70-73 to equip.
Warlord features 8 pieces, and like the Invader Set before it, all pieces of Warlord are bound on pick-up, so you must earn all pieces of this set with War Crests.
How to equip Warlord Armor
To wear Warlord Armor, you'll first need the Invader Ward granted by equipping five pieces of Invader Armor or equivalent sets.
Once that's done, it's time to head North in your capital city to either the Palace of Altdorf or The Citadel within the Inevitable City. (You can also head to the far Western area of Karaz-A-Karak, or the Great Green Hall in Karak Eight Peaks.)
Look for Valenor (Order) or Vothocan (Destro) and speak to them to begin purchasing the Armor set.
You'll need Renown Rank 70 to start equipping pieces, and Renown Rank 73 to finish the set.
Warlord Stat Focus
For most classes, the Warlord set is considered "Off-spec", meaning that it will grant bonuses for alternate playstyles for your class.
For tanks and healers, this means the set is DPS-focused. Be sure to check the Set Bonuses to see if the Warlord Set will combo nicely for your preferred playstyle.
