What This Set Covers

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.

Shared Pieces and Appearances

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

Look-Alike Sets

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

  • Gravewarden Armaments (Legion, 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.
