Where These Pieces Drop
4 of this set's 14 pieces drop from 4 encounters in Khaz Algar and Manaforge Omega. The rest come from vendors, quests, crafting or world drops, which the dungeon journal does not record.
Drop chances are not stored in the client data we mine, so none are shown here.
Where to Farm This Set
4 bosses in Khaz Algar and Manaforge Omega drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Khaz Algar's depths have been met with great disturbances in recent times. With the Coreway disrupted and the nerubians on the rise, other threats have arisen as well. Kordac, the Dormant Protector has risen to defend the Isle of Dorn. In the Ringing Deeps, an Aggregation of Horrors awaits. Hallowfall's waters have been disturbed by Shurrai, Atrocity of the Undersea. And in the depths of Azj-Kahet, the deepwalker Orta, the Broken Mountain, has been twisted by Black Blood.
Reshanor, The Untethered drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). The ethereals of K'aresh first witnessed this destructive maw of the void after Dimensius's attack. They believe Reshanor has manifested as their eternal punishment - for it comes back around to keep eating them and their planet as he grows infinitely bigger over the years.
Manaforge Omega, built to harness arcane power from the wastes of K'aresh, now hums with a sinister radiance. Within it, Nexus-King Salhadaar attempts to reawaken Dimensius, the All-Devouring, in a bid for ultimate power. The champions of Azeroth must disrupt Manaforge Omega's operations or else risk a reborn Dimensius feasting on reality itself.
Plexus Sentinel drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 76.9, 26.7 on the Manaforge Omega map. The Plexus Sentinel patrols the colossal machinery of Manaforge Omega, ensuring that energy from the shattered world of K'aresh is filtered through the structure's conduits. All incoming energy must be sterilized. All pollutants must be purged.
Loom'ithar drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 63.8, 64.8 on the Manaforge Omega map. Loom'ithar was purposefully bred by the Shadowguard for its unique ability to infuse arcane energy into its prodigious silk weaving. Bound to its fate inside the machinery of the manaforge, Loom'ithar spins endless spools of arcane silk for its masters.
Dimensius, the All-Devouring drops 1 piece of this set (Legs). Adventure Guide map pin: 84.8, 48.6 on the Manaforge Omega map. Deep within Manaforge Omega, Dimensius--the All-Devouring and destroyer of K'aresh--is slowly waking as his devoted ethereal followers use the Dark Heart to give him sustenance. If they succeed, they will unleash a being of unfathomable power that could destroy the very fabric of reality.

Versions and Companion Sets
The game links 3 other versions to Augur's Ephemeral Plumage, each labelled the way the collection journal labels it. This page is the Normal version.
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Augur's Ephemeral Plumage’s head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and chest, most shared models first:
Astral Gladiator's Silk Armor (The War Within, 28 pieces): the same head, shoulder, waist, legs, feet and chest models, recoloured.
Matched in the game files: each piece’s ItemDisplayInfo names its 3D model and texture. The same model with another texture is a recolour. Only pieces with a 3D model of their own (helms, shoulders, cloaks, weapons, shields, off-hands and some belts and robes) can be compared this way; pieces drawn from textures alone are left out.
Augur's Ephemeral Plumage exists as 4 set records in the game data. The version we index for this name is set 5117; this page covers one of the other records.
