Set Pieces (14)
Preview in Dressing Room See this set on a 3D character.
All 14 pieces drop from bosses. Every piece is Cloth armor. Wearing them requires level 90. The set was added in patch 12.1.0.
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.
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.

Where These Pieces Drop
4 of this set's 14 pieces drop from 4 encounters in The Tidebound Grotto and The Venomous Abyss. 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 The Tidebound Grotto and The Venomous Abyss drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Hidden beneath the waves of Atal'Utek lies the Tidebound Grotto, a submerged cave veiled by shifting tides. Within, the naga sorceress Nymrissa Wavecaller bends the tides to conceal her domain--and to drown any who dare uncover it.
- Nymrissa Wavecaller drops 1 piece of this set (Chest). Adventure Guide map pin: 51.6, 54.0 on the The Tidebound Grotto map. Nymrissa Wavecaller commands the restless sea itself, concealing her lair beneath shifting tides. Those who dare uncover her sanctuary find her murloc minions eager to answer their mistress' call.
Guided by the dark whispers of Malacrass, Zul'jan has freed the forgotten broods of Ula'tek from their prison. As the monster's power grows, Zul'jarra calls upon the Champions of Azeroth to descend into the Vaults of Atal'Utek to stop her brother before the weapon is unleashed upon Azeroth.
- Sszorak drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 54.6, 72.4 on the The Venomous Abyss map. A horrifying creature, warped by Ula'tek's toxic venom, Sszorak is a brutal instrument of vengeance. Calling upon the winds that howl deep within Atal'Utek, it tears apart any living creature it encounters.
- The Coiled Altar drops 1 piece of this set (Hands). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.1, 77.2 on the The Venomous Abyss map. The spirit of Malacrass will not release his grip on Zul'jan so easily. At the Coiled Altar, the shaman commands the warrior to enact the final ritual to unleash Ula'tek on the Amani--for revenge, and to gain their promised reward.
- Ula'tek drops 1 piece of this set (Head). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.1, 26.4 on the The Venomous Abyss map. The great shame of the Amani empire. The vast complex of Altal'Utek was created to imprison the weapon that proved to be as much of a threat as the enemy she was intended to destroy. Ula'tek has risen from her ancient slumber and threatens all of Azeroth if she should escape.
