Source is the collection journal’s own source for each appearance, read from the current retail build; bosses, quests, recipes, prices and requirements come from the game’s item, journal and quest records.

This is a complete head-to-toe outfit - it fills 9 armor slots, so it can be worn as a full look with nothing borrowed from another set. Every piece is Bind on Pickup, so the appearances have to be earned rather than bought.

3 pieces share their appearance with items outside this set, each with its own collection source:

• Blightguard's Grasps uses the same appearance as Gnarled Bough Gauntlets (boss drop).
• Blightguard's Shoulderguards uses the same appearance as Forest Protector's Shoulderguards (boss drop).
• Blightguard's Spaulders uses the same appearance as Forest Protector's Shoulderguards (boss drop).

1 other set reuses the 3D models of Blightguard's Chains’s head, shoulder, chest, legs, feet and hands, most shared models first:

• Sinister Gladiator's Vestment (Battle for Azeroth, 23 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, legs, feet and hands 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.

Sets from the same content batch with the same class restriction.

• Lurking Defiler's ScalemailRaid Finder - Hunter, Shaman, Evoker
• Corrupted Gladiator's ChainGladiator - Hunter, Shaman, Evoker
