Faction rewards for Protection Paladins in Wrath of the Lich King

Posted by Tepisor in Uncategorized | 4 comments

100th post, yey!

We all know that fac­tion rewards can make a dif­fer­ence for a newly 70 (or in this case 80) and can really improve your gear until you get replace­ments from raiding.

Here are some of them. Remem­ber, we’re still in Beta and things can change!

Kirin Tor

Kirin Tor is a sect of wiz­ards, sta­tioned in Dalaran, that study and record all of humanity’s magic and arti­facts. They are also charged with the pro­tec­tion of the city, but once failed to pre­vent Archi­monde from destroy­ing the city, under rule of Prince Arthas, who was sum­moned by defected Kirin Tor mem­ber Kel’Thuzad. The remain­ing mem­bers of the Kirin Tor were deter­mined to sal­vage the ruins and rid the city of the remain­ing undead and reclaim their once mag­nif­i­cent city. The mem­bers of Kirin Tor are now cau­tious about who is let into their orga­ni­za­tion in fear of more defections.

Knights of the Ebon Blade

The Knights of the Ebon Blade is an orga­ni­za­tion of rene­gade death knights whose pri­mary role is to guide new death knights. These newly released death knights, freed from the grasp of the Lich King, have regrouped against him under com­mand of High­lord Dar­ion Mograine. Their base is located at Ebon Hold, which is located in the East­ern Plague­lands.

• Toxin-Tempered Saba­tons — requires Hon­ored

The Kalu’ak

The tuskarr are a tough but peace­ful peo­ple who derive their liveli­hood from fish­ing and whal­ing. Their set­tle­ments have recently come under fierce attack and wel­come any allies who would come to their aid.

The Wyrm­rest Accord

The Wyrm­rest Accord is an alliance of the remain­ing four Drag­on­flights — Red, Bronze, Green, and even Black — against the Blue Dragonflight’s cru­sade. The Red Drag­on­flight being the most active of the four, with a large num­ber of red drag­ons guard­ing Wyrm­rest Tem­ple itself. The fac­tion is led by Alexs­trasza the Life-Binder, their home base being in the icy plain of Drag­onblight.

Argent Cru­sade

The Argent Cru­sade is an orga­ni­za­tion cre­ated from the union of the Argent Dawn and the Knights of the Sil­ver Hand. The ini­tial Cru­sade was formed shortly after the Bat­tle for Light’s Hope Chapel, as played out dur­ing the death knight quest [55] The Light of Dawn, in which Tirion For­dring — leader of the reformed Sil­ver Hand — reclaimed (and evi­dently puri­fied) the Ash­bringer dur­ing a con­fronta­tion with the Lich King.

• Spe­cial Issue Leg­plates — requires Honored
• Arcanum of the Stal­wart Pro­tec­tor — requires Revered

Con­clu­sions

I have to say I’m kinda dis­a­pointed here. The head and shoul­ders enchants look awe­some and one must have them asap. But in regards of gear, I’m really unsure. Most of the items there have Hit Rat­ing and Exper­tise which at this point are at the back of the needed stats wagon.

Any­way, I’m excited to see what live will bring!
