Where These Pieces Drop
16 of this set's 50 pieces drop from 7 encounters in Throne of Thunder. The rest come from vendors, quests, crafting or world drops, which the dungeon journal does not record.
7 bosses in Throne of Thunder drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
When Pandaria separated from Kalimdor many thousands of years ago, a veil of mist kept outsiders from discovering the newly-formed continent. The mists also hid a reminder of an ancient evil: Lei Shen's Throne of Thunder. During his rule, this fortress was the seat of the Thunder King's power. Even after his death, great swathes of corrupted energy lingered, and now, the resurrected Thunder King and the Zandalari trolls intend to harness that energy to establish the reign of Lei Shen once again.
The entrance is in Isle of Thunder at 63.8, 32.1 (/way #504 63.8 32.1).
Throne of Thunder entrance
Jin'rokh the Breaker drops 2 pieces of this set (Waist, Wrist) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 59.5, 25.6 on the Throne of Thunder map. When the Thunder King awoke, he rewarded the most loyal and ambitious Zandalari trolls with power beyond their wildest dreams. The berserker Jin'rokh was one of the first to receive the King's blessing, and even though Lei Shen's gifts nearly tore his body apart, the troll is now capable of calling the fury of the storm in battle.
Horridon drops 2 pieces of this set (Wrist, Head) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 26.8, 78.7 on the Throne of Thunder map. The Zandalari brought powerful creatures with them to the Isle of the Thunder King to use as engines of war. Led by the War-God Jalak, the dinomancers of the Zandalari Beast Ward use ancient tribal magics to strengthen the great beasts and command obedience. The horns of Horridon, the fabled mount of Jalak himself, can tear through the stone walls of a keep as a blade cuts silk.
Council of Elders drops 1 piece of this set (Chest) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.0, 19.1 on the Throne of Thunder map. The history of the troll tribes -- the Drakkari, the Farraki, the Amani, and the Gurubashi -- is awash with millennia of betrayal and conflict, but the Zandalari's promise of a new, unstoppable empire has finally united these disparate troll leaders.
Ji-Kun drops 2 pieces of this set (Chest, Hands) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 49.4, 41.6 on the Throne of Thunder map. Mogu flesh-shapers discarded their failed creations in an abyssal shaft beneath Lei Shen's keep. The reek of decay lured many scavengers to the refuse pit, including the great Ji-Kun. Ruthless and cunning, the monstrous bird devoured her rivals one-by-one until she held sole dominion over the shadowy tunnel.
Durumu the Forgotten drops 3 pieces of this set (Legs, Feet, Hands) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 71.1, 34.0 on the Throne of Thunder map. Lei Shen commanded his sorcerers to mold an aberration that could peer into the hearts of his followers and detect betrayal. From this decree, Durumu was given life. The clever entity stubbornly obeyed its masters until the Thunder King's death, at which time it disappeared into the citadel's labyrinthine corridors. Only recently has Durumu, all but forgotten by the mogu, emerged from hiding.
Lei Shen drops 2 pieces of this set (Head, Legs) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.8, 51.0 on the Throne of Thunder map. Tyrant. Dictator. Conqueror. Emperor. These titles of the Thunder King were earned by bringing absolute misery to every race of Pandaria. Resurrected into a world where his people no longer rule, Lei Shen is bent on ending the farce and bringing the land under his heel once more.
Ra-den drops 4 pieces of this set (Waist, Feet, Legs, Chest) on 10 Player (Heroic) and 25 Player (Heroic). Adventure Guide map pin: 52.3, 81.0 on the Throne of Thunder map. Lei Shen's life changed forever when he stumbled into a dark chamber below what are now the Mogu'shan Vaults. Legend has it he found an ancient titan keeper guarding a miraculous device known as the Engine of Nalak'sha. No one knows what transpired between the two beings, but Lei Shen later emerged from the site bristling with the power to forge an empire. The keeper's fate -- and his current whereabouts -- remain a mystery.
