Heritage armor:
With The War Within, you can level up as you want, including using a character boost or a race-change and gain the achievement (like Heritage of the Lightforged). Once earned, you can use this transmog on every alt of that race. Some races get more than one set.
Older/main races may complete a quest chain to get their heritage armor (currently level 50+ and possibly additional requirements, depending on their race).

In case it doesn't pop up on log in, try to visit the Embassy to find the quest giver (Stormwind / Orgrimmar). A relog might also be helpful if you've just leveled up.
Some races need a teleporter near the Embassy to turn in their quests. /way Stormwind 54.4 15.4 Embassy SW /way Orgrimmar 40 76 Embassy OG

I leveled a troll to 80 in Legion Remix, then converted it to Retail. I was looking around and Zi'Guma wasn't offering the quest, nor did anyone in Echo Isles offer me anything.

Ji Firepaw in the embassy was the one that offered me the quest.
