If you’re looking for some inspiration for your Paladin transmog set, look no further! In this blog post, we will take a look at 10 of the best Paladin transmog sets from around World of Warcraft.
Whether you play Holy, Retribution, or protection paladin, you will want some great transmog to show that the light truly flows through you.
The Paladin class is known for its focus on divine magic and protection of the weak. Wearing Paladin-themed transmog sets can be a great way to show your dedication to the Paladin class, while also looking stylish and fierce in battle.
Paladins are well-known for their plate armor sets, which are often intricately detailed and beautifully crafted.
Below are the 10 best Paladin transmogs sets picked by the MMORPG.GG crew.
We have only selected whole sets, but transmog can and should of course be mixed and matched for the best results! They are in no particular order.
10. Battlegear of Guiding Light
How To Get It: Blackrock Foundry
Match With: Hammer of the Naru, Maul of Smiting
Race Choice: Draenei
This is the best transmog set for a Draenei paladin. Why do you ask? Because it has crystals, and Draenei loves crystals. Especially purple ones, which you get from Blackrock Foundry on normal.
The set features glowing purple or blue crystals with amazing metallic details. The effect on the Mythic shoulders is also very unique and cool looking.
Pair with Hammer of the Naaru and you are good to go. The helmet might be the worst-looking item in the set but you can easily find something to switch it with.
9. Judgment Armor
How To Get It: Blackwing Lair
Match With: Ashkandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood, The Untamed Blade, Maladath, Runed Blade of the Black Flight
Race Choice: Human
No list of the best paladin transmog sets is complete without the legendary Judgment Armor, one of the triumphs of armor design in early WoW history.
Paladins are fanatic zealots as we all know, and this set is the perfect way to show it. It even has scripture pinned to the armor. Show them to the light, or kill them.
Great transmog for Human or Blood Elf paladins.
Pair the set with classic-era weapons for the complete look!
8. 7th Legionnaire’s Plate
How To Get It: Quests, Arathi Warfront
Match With: 7th Legionnaire’s Weapons
Race Choice: Human
A classic plate armor look, the 7th Legionnaire’s Plate is one of the best-looking Paladin sets BFA and in recent WoW history.
It’s simple but it does the job, making you look like a holy footsoldier on the march for the glory of Stormwind.
Looks great on human paladins.
Pair with a simpler-looking weapon like the accompanying 7th Legionnaire’s weapons.
7. Prideful Gladiator’s Scaled Armor
How To Get It: Buy from MoP PvP Vendor Shonn Su for 12 Marks of Honor.
Match With: Biggun Wollopper, Prideful Gladiator’s Greatsword
Race Choice: Tauren
In need of some hordy plus size transmog for your Tauren? Look no further than the Prideful Gladiator’s set.
Well, you can probably look further for some better Hands and Chest, but that helmet is as good as it gets for you big boy.
The set is a bit more primitive looking than traditional Paladin sets but still has some holy details with the cross on the helmet and the gold and light blue color combination.
6. Battleplate of Immolation
How To Get It: Firelands
Match With: Sulfuras, the Extinguished Hand, Calamity’s Edge
Race Choice: Any
Paladins love fire, especially purging things in fire. They love fiery swords and they love having their head and shoulders on fire. Fire fire fire.
The set looks good on all races and both the Normal and Heroic versions are great.
This is a super easy transmog set to get from Firelands and will look good in combination with anything that is on fire.
5. Trailblazer’s Plate Armor
How To Get It: Quests, World Drops, Professions
Match With: Ardent Defender, Expedition Guard’s Shield, Stonewing Rioter’s Cudgel, Stonecutter Claymore
Race Choice: Dwarf, Human.
Finally, we got another simpler-looking set with the Trailblazer’s Plate Armor.
No fancy floating crystals, burning helmets, or glowing effects, just a plain good-looking armor set.
Perfect if you just want to look like a normal adventurer, even if you are a Paladin.
4. Vestments of Winged Triumph
How To Get It: Siege of Orgrimmar
Match With: The Silver Hand, Awak, Mani, Grimtotem’s Legacy, Jaithys, The Prison Blade, Voror, Gleaming Blade of the Stalwart
Race Choice: Human
There comes a time in a Paladin’s life when he stops wearing pants and starts wearing skirts, when that time comes, this is a good transmog for it.
This set features one of the most Paladin-looking helmets in the game as well as some very cool shoulders with a little note on it, I wonder what it says. The book on the belt is also a great detail.
The set is from Siege of Orgrimmar, the Normal version looks the holiest.
3. Battleplate of the Highlord
How To Get It: The Nighthold
Match With: Ashbringer Legion Artifact, Voror, Gleaming Blade of the Stalwart
Race Choice: Any
This set has it all! A skirt, glowing eyes, floaty things on the shoulders, gold details, and little hands indicating to not touch the Paladin as he is practicing social distancing
The Mythic version is our favorite, but you could also put together a Green Knight-themed look with the Heroic version.
It looks great with the version of Ashbringer which also has red and gold details.
2. Light’s Vanguard Battleplate
How To Get It: Antorus, The Burning Throne
Match With: Stormrune’s Edge, Aqua-Pulse Trident, Coralspine Bulwark, Selfless Watcher’s Spellsword
Race Choice: Blood Elf
So you play a pointy-eared Paladin, and you want the best Paladin transmog for making you look like a High Elf? This is the choice for you.
Light’s Vanguard Battleplate will make everyone forget that you are actually a Blood Elf and think you are one of the much more superior High Elves. Uhhhhhhh!
The Mythic version is way better looking than the other versions.
1. Radiant Lightbringer Armor
How To Get It: Tomb of Sargeras
Match With: The Silver Hand, 7th Legionnaire’s Warhammer and Shield
Race Choice: Dwarf
The Radiant Lightbringer Armor is an amazing-looking set. The Normal and Mythic versions are the holiest looking, but they all look great.
The set will look good on any race but our favorite is on a Dwarf because of the hammer on the shoulder.
The color combination on this set makes it pair well with a lot of Paladin weapons.
That’s it for the list of the best Paladin transmog sets. Let us know what your favorite Paladin transmog set or items are in the comments below!

Even 15 years later in Shadowlands, NOTHING beats the look of Judgement. Still the best looking shoulders.

So one set is ally only, you have a set that looks like dog shit (Prideful Gladiator's Scaled Armor) instead of the Relentless Gladiator's Scaled Armor (10x butter looking than the dog shit you used), Reinforced Sapphirium Battleplate (you pretty much said nope to all but the helm and shoulders so why is it here), Where's Radiant Lightbringer (Mythic) or the Original Lightbringer?
