WoW Forever: three dungeon armour sets found in the files

Three armour sets and their bonuses have been pulled out of the latest WoW: Forever beta build. The names point straight at dungeons: Defias Enforcer's Garb at The Deadmines, Violet Sorcerer's Vestments at the City of Dalaran, and Krol'dok Battlegear at Krol'dok Stronghold. The first two dungeons are open on the beta. The Stronghold is a level 40 dungeon and has not been tested yet, so nobody has seen its set drop.

What stands out is that two of the strongest bonuses pay attention to where you are standing. Defias Juggernaut, the 5-piece bonus of the Defias set, gives melee attacks a chance to raise your critical strike chance by 2% for 20 seconds, and doubles that in swamps. Krol'dok Resolve, at 4 pieces, gives a chance on block to heal for 14 to 23, doubled in strongholds and cities.

The rest reads like the sets of the original game. Krol'dok Battlegear stacks armour and defence and finishes with Ogre Dominance, which raises stamina by 1 for 30 seconds each time you take damage and stacks up to 20 times. Violet Sorcerer's Vestments add arcane resistance and spirit, let 15% of your mana regeneration carry on while you cast for 15 seconds, and at 5 pieces can summon an arcane elemental to fight alongside you.

None of this has been announced. It is read out of the beta files, so Blizzard can move the numbers or drop a bonus without saying anything, and the players running the two open dungeons will be the first to see what the sets actually look like on the ground.
