All tier sets and their bonuses for Vault of the Incarnates in WoW Dragonflight

Better than Shadowlands tier sets.

Tier sets in World of Warcraft typically refer to specialization-specific armor that empowers either your base spells or passives. Added to the game in 2004, tier sets were removed in Battle for Azeroth and got replaced by Azerite Armor. From the moment tier sets were replaced by Azerite armor, the players desperately wanted tier sets back in the game since Azerite Armor didn’t quite extend the class and specialization fantasy like tier sets did. So, with Patch 9.2 and raid the Sepulcher of the First Ones, Blizzard brought back tier sets.

Seeing the sheer joy amongst the players, Blizzard decided to keep the tier sets in the game and make them a big part of the upcoming expansion Dragonflight that will release on Nov. 28. Vault of the Incarnates is the first raid of Dragonflight. The raid will have eight bosses and the final boss of the raid will be Raszageth the Storm-Eater. The bosses will drop either tier set pieces or tokens. On top of that, players can get tier sets from the Great Vault after the weekly reset. 

Blizzard Entertainment has been testing tier set pieces for a while now on Beta and the WoW community has been generally happy with the outcome, visually and design-wise. So, let’s take a look at all class tier sets and their bonuses.
