Pick a set for your talents
Tier 0.5 is Scholomance's permanent class collection: nine eight-piece armor sets plus 11 weapons. The bonuses support particular talents, so check the interaction before replacing a set that already works for your build.

| Class and set | Talents to pair with it | Main eight-piece effect at 3+ stars |
|---|---|---|
| Warrior — Heroism | Protection: Fortified and Shield Slam | Shield Slam gains 20% damage and Physical damage equal to 4.5% of your maximum health. |
| Paladin — Soulforge | Protection: Hammer of the Righteous | Hammer of Justice deals 1.75% of target maximum health and explodes for 40% of remaining shield absorption within 10 yards. |
| Hunter — Beastmaster | Beast Mastery: Bestial Wrath | Adds a permanent Devilsaur Matriarch. Her bites deal 150% of Wolf base bite damage, with 50% more against Hunter's Mark targets. |
| Rogue — Darkmantle | Subtlety: Backstab and Eviscerate | These attacks mark one boss or elite for death, making it take 35% more damage from you. |
| Priest — Virtuous | Shadow: Shadowform and Shadowy Apparitions | Shadowform death explosions deal 8% of the defeated enemy's maximum health; Shadow Word: Pain jumps to two enemies. |
| Shaman — Five Thunders | Enhancement: Stormstrike | Every Stormstrike triggers Thunderburst for 25% of its damage within six yards. |
| Mage — Sorcerer's | Frost: Water Elemental and Splitting Ice | Elemental Frostbolts trigger Splitting Ice and deal 100% more damage to bosses and elites. |
| Warlock — Deathmist | Destruction: Conflagrate | Conflagrate brands its primary target for ten seconds; your direct spells deal 35% more damage to branded bosses and elites. |
| Druid — Feralheart | Restoration: Tranquility | Healing casts that trigger Tranquility plant Seed of Life. After 1.5 seconds it deals 60% of that hit to a priority target and five nearby enemies within six yards. |

Farm missing slots by boss
| Missing slot | Boss |
|---|---|
| Head or shoulders | Kirtonos the Herald |
| Chest or waist | Ras Frostwhisper |
| Legs or feet | Doctor Theolen Krastinov |
| Wrists or hands | Lord Alexei Barov |
| Weapon or weapon pair | Darkmaster Gandling |
Each armor boss rolls once at 50% base chance, then prioritizes a piece you do not own. With both paired slots missing, each has a 25% chance; with only one missing, that piece gets the full 50%. Gandling's weapon reward has a 25% base chance, and dual-weapon classes receive their pair together.
Use the Scholomance boss guide for arrival times and movement priorities, or filter the drop tables to your class.
Upgrade toward a complete threshold
Only armor counts toward set bonuses. Four pieces need at least one star; the main effect requires all eight at three stars; the empowered effect requires all eight at five stars. A weapon upgrade improves that weapon without helping the armor count.
Scholomance Heroic clears with your class unlock the matching star level. Each upgrade step costs the following before account discounts:
| Target star | Marks for this step |
|---|---|
| 1 | 5.5 |
| 2 | 11 |
| 3 | 16.5 |
| 4 | 22 |
| 5 | 27.5 |
Tier 0.5 has its own base and five-star attributes. Check a piece's 0–5 star comparison instead of assuming it follows another collection's stat curve.
Two combinations to try first
Beastmaster + Kill Command + Hunter's Mark: the set adds a Matriarch, Kill Command gives each pet a focused attack, and Hunter's Mark supports the Matriarch against a durable target. Heart of the Packlord is the relevant run amulet. Start from the Beast Mastery plan and keep enough control to move safely while the pets attack.
Feralheart + Tranquility: build around repeatable healing casts. Tranquility counts overhealing as well as restored health, so reaching full health does not stop its damage conversion. Tree of Life's shield still has its own limit. Seed of Life's empowered effect strikes bosses and elites twice; each hit can critically strike independently.
