Plate Specialization (death knight)
Last wiki revision 2023-04-27
Plate Specialization is a passive ability gained by death knights at level 50.
This passive grant a bonus to the death knight's primary attribute, determined by specialization: Blood death knights gain a +5% bonus to stamina, while Frost and Unholy death knights gain a +5% bonus to strength - provided they wear Plate in all armor slots.
Plate Specialization is an armor specialization, added to encourage death knights to use plate gear at end-game rather than mail, leather or cloth.
