Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

"Regarding PvP equipment (which is for us a major point) :
* PvP equipment sets (R7, R8, R10 & R12, R13) will be available with original stats (before 1.11 patch) at server release."

Anyone know what the original stats of this gear was and for each class? any possible links?

If you dig deep there should be a lot of private server databses from around the time, maybe even prior to the release of the game. It should be very possible to obtain this information.

How deep is deep?

This is a pretty major blizzlike change that I've never seen any other private server ever do, and it's amazing to me that they are actually going with blizzlike progression in terms of pre-nerf dungeon content and pre-buff / patch obtainable PvP gear.
It will make the early content and gearing quite a bit more difficult than it usually is on privates, and indeed a lot more blizzlike and stays more true to the item and dungeon balance of vanilla retail progression.

(I'm linking the horde-side version as they're all the same stats, just different looks. But I also include the Paladin sets from the Alliance)

EDIT (20/11/2014): Askental was nice enough to dig into some web archives and found the original old website with the stats of the Rank 12 - Rank 13 PvP Item sets.

That's the difference between the Rank 7 - Rank 10 gear sets at least.
You can actually find pretty much all vanilla WoW item sets here: http://db.vanillagaming.org/?itemsets#0+2+1

Remember that time i killed you in IF and you got the jump on me and tried to run away?

This timeline update is amazing, thank you Viper, Daemon and the staff ! I hope you won't forget the T1 sets nerf as well.

What about the 55-60 5-man items that were added / substantially upgraded in patch 1.10, have you managed to find any reliable source to nerf them too ?
