Plate armor

Warriors, like this tauren, wear plate armor for their high armor score and their attributes.

Plate armor is the heaviest type of armor. Heavier than mail, leather or cloth armor, it is wearable by warriors, paladins and death knights.

Prior to Legion, warriors and paladins could not equip plate armor until level 40.

Patch changes

Patch 7.0.3 (2016-07-19): Paladins and warriors now begin with plate armor at level 1 instead of mail armor.
