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.
Slot and binding read from the current retail build’s item records for this set’s own pieces.

Where These Pieces Drop
4 of this set's 13 pieces drop from 4 encounters in Nerub-ar Palace. 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 Nerub-ar Palace drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Deep within the kingdom of Azj-Kahet lies Nerub-ar Palace, Queen Ansurek's seat of power. From this shadowed throne Queen Ansurek has tightened her grip on her Sureki followers, leading them along a dark path to a new future. As her paranoia grows, the members of the conspiratorial Severed Threads launch their final gambit against Ansurek's rule.
The entrance is in Azj-Kahet at 43.5, 90.4 (/way #2255 43.5 90.4).
Nerub-ar Palace entrance
The Bloodbound Horror drops 1 piece of this set (Chest). Adventure Guide map pin: 43.6, 69.3 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. In the dark pits below Nerub-ar Palace, the blood of the Old Gods congeals in foul, black pools. The Bloodbound Horror rises from this vile ooze - drawing everything in its path into The Unseeming.
Rasha'nan drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 39.5, 59.5 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. Twisted by Queen Ansurek's experiments, Rasha'nan was transformed from a proud nerubian into a monstrous, winged horror. Trapped within her new form, shattered memories of her former self drive Rasha'nan into an unquenchable rage.
Broodtwister Ovi'nax drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 55.4, 77.0 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. Deep within the bowels of the queen's palace, Broodtwister Ovi'nax conducts abominable experiments with the black blood found in Azj-kahet. This corpulent horror lumbers through the palace's cavernous depths, regurgitating inky sludge onto hatchlings to observe its gruesome effects.
The Silken Court drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder). Adventure Guide map pin: 40.7, 52.9 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. Scarab Lord Anub'arash and Skeinspinner Takazj are Queen Ansurek's most trusted advisors, yet these two powerful nerubians harbor a hatred for each other even more powerful than their loyalty to the throne. While unleashing their considerable strength onto their enemies, each also fights to ensure their counterpart doesn't survive.

Versions and Companion Sets
The game links 3 other versions to Destroyer's Scarred Wards, each labelled the way the collection journal labels it. This page is the Mythic version.
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Destroyer's Scarred Wards’s head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs and hands, most shared models first:
Forged Gladiator's Chain Armor (The War Within, 28 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs 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.
Destroyer's Scarred Wards exists as 4 set records in the game data. The version we index for this name is set 3729; this page covers one of the other records.
