Pattern: Truefaith Vestments

This pattern drops only from Balnazzar, the last boss of the "living side" of Stratholme (SM2). The crafted robe is bind on pickup, so only the tailor priest that crafts it can wear it. Though the robe lacks intellect, the equip bonuses make this chest piece undeniably the best robe for a priest up to that point in content. Because the pattern is BoE and somewhat outdated, this can occasionally be found rather cheap on the AH.

Three years later - it isn't cheap in AH. Maybe because fewer folks do Stratholme these days... *sniff*

Only drops from Balnazzar no it used to have 100% shared droprate with the other 2 caster chests in lbrs their was a chest that spawns with 100% chance to drop epic pattern yes i know the time this was posted this was 1 of my farming locals rogues leet chest farmers

Belterith, maybe you could repost that with better grammar and spelling so that it's understandable?

Someone is selling the pattern on the AH now (Dec 6, 2013) for 100k - dafuq??

I could be wrong, but I think drop rates for some Vanilla epics might have to be re-evaluated seeing as Blizz might have upped them for transmogging in 4.3 patch. I went to farm this on my priest and got it on the first try, and my luck for that kinda thing is just not that good lol. I'm the type of guy who could lose a need roll when soloing lol.

Crafting this robe for transmogrification is not the best idea, [url=http://www.wowhead.com/item=50213]Mord'rethar Robes[/url] drops, [url=http://www.wowhead.com/item=13858]Runecloth Robe[/url] is easier to craft.

If you are trying to get this recipe to drop in order to complete your recipe list, you can also try your hand at farming the other Stratholme-exclusive recipes. All of the following recipes are Bind on Equip (BoE) and so therefore could also be potentially found on the Auction House.[br] [b]Dead Side:[/b] [u]Blacksmithing:[/u] [ul] [li] [url=http://www.wowhead.com/item=12833]Plans: Hammer of the Titans[/url] - Maleki the Pallid (8% droprate).[/li] [li] [url=http://www.wowhead.com/item=12830]Plans: Corruption[/url] – Contained 100% in the object [url=http://www.wowhead.com/object=173232]Blacksmithing Plans[/url].
