7 pieces
spans levels 53-60

armor : 4420
stamina* : +79
agility : +12
fire resistance : +168

* one piece, Dark Iron Boots, has no set attribute other than Fire Resistance and armor, having a random enchantment instead (you get "Dark Iron Boots of..." in other words) - this total is without the Boots

Bought plans:

Dark Iron Boots
Dark Iron Bracers
Dark Iron Gauntlets
Dark Iron Helm
Dark Iron Leggings

from Lokhtos Darkbargainer in the bar in Blackrock Depths - you must span the entire reputation scale with Thorium Brotherhood in order to get the full set of plans


Picked up plans:

Dark Iron Plate
dropped by Ribbly Screwspigot in the bar in BRD

Dark Iron Shoulders
found inside Blacksmithing Plans
or dropped by Doomforge Dragoon or Fireguard in BRD


Materials:

Dark Iron Bars: 72 (or 576 dark iron ore)
Lava Core: 19
Fiery Core: 17
Core Leather: 8
Blood of the Mountain: 2
Heart of Fire: 9


Considerations:

- Not a "real" set - no completion bonuses (2, 3, 5, 7 piece bonuses etc)
- Dark Iron Plate is Bind on Pickup
- All but the Dark Iron Shoulders require Armorsmith blacksmithing specialization to make.
- All require trips to BRD to make: to smelt the dark iron bars and to create the items on the Black Anvil where Incendious spawns.
- Very high FR rating when all pieces are equipped (compare to epic sets for warriors/paladins - +34 or +40 FR total on those, +168 on this one)
- Slightly higher armor rating than Lawbringer or Might gear (4306), significantly less than Judgement or Wrath (4925)


In my opinion, with a little tweaking, Blizzard could have made this a very nice mid-range set, or for the crowd who could never hope to finish out an epic set for their plate class. Just needs set tier bonuses, change the chest to BoE, and add some slight other stat increases (in the same range as the stamina total, to strength for example)

x-posted to other pieces

he has 350 fire reistance
LOOK out RAG
OoH is coming!!!

Simply the best for MC and Onyxia.
758 armor on HEAD, is more than 98% of the CHEST pieces in the game, lol
20 stamina is very good, and +35 fire resist is GODLY.

Get the full dark iron set (its 140 fire resist in all =/), kick in the +60 fire aura, the +40 for the librams of resilience.

Get Drakefire Amulet (+15), 2 rings that give around 19, 20 fire resist. The Royal seal trikent (+10), the fire radiator thing (+18).
Add the +5 fire resist for mantle on the shoulders.

I think you wil be completely immune to fire by then, no? ;D
