Where to Farm This Set
11 bosses in Ara-Kara, City of Echoes, Cinderbrew Meadery and City of Threads drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Just beneath the City of Threads lies Ara-Kara, City of Echoes, the deserted ruins of the City's previous layer. There, Ansurek's forces seek to harvest enough deadly materials to put the entirety of nerubian civilization through ascension if necessary--whether they are willing or not.
Avanoxx drops 1 piece of this set (Hands). Adventure Guide map pin: 67.8, 28.4 on the City of Echoes map. Deserted when Ara-Kara fell to ruin, the creature known as Avanoxx started as nothing more than a humble spider. Years of isolation in an area ripe for feeding have left her free to grow, overseeing her children, her followers, and her territory with unmatched size and ferocity.
Anub'zekt drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder). Adventure Guide map pin: 17.0, 39.8 on the City of Echoes map. While Anub'zekt has not yet earned his own ascension, he has been granted the honor of overseeing the Ara-Kara harvesting operation. Fiercely tactical and immensely strong, Anub'zekt will not hesitate to step in should his forces prove insufficient in their defense of Ara-Kara.
Ki'katal the Harvester drops 1 piece of this set (Chest). Adventure Guide map pin: 46.9, 55.9 on the City of Echoes map. As one of Ansurek's ascended, Ki'katal has been charged with overseeing the harvest of Black Blood from the very feet of the Queen's own citadel. Harsh and unrelenting, Ki'katal will stop at nothing to see the harvest continue, utilitzing every enhanced ability at her disposal.
Under new management! The Cinderbrew Meadery is a focal point of Unbound earthen culture, and under the dotage of Wenbrandt, the meadery has crafted a fiery, potent brew enjoyed by all earthen. However, the meadery has been the victim of a hostile corporate acquisition by Goldie Baronbottom, a goblin entrepreneur, ushering in a new age of mass-produced cinderbrew.
Benk Buzzbee drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 52.7, 76.3 on the Cinderbrew Meadery map. Benk's qualifications for beekeeping may be dubious, but he does seem to have a knack for controlling bees and streamlining honey-extracting operations. But, his tampering has limited the bees' freedom and sacrificed the mead's quality, and this cannot stand.
Brew Master Aldryr drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder). Adventure Guide map pin: 44.5, 52.1 on the Cinderbrew Meadery map. Barkeep and brew master for the meadery, Aldryr has more than mead on tap. Anyone who messes with the Cinderbrew Meadery's new management messes with Aldryr, and he has many friends in low places.
Goldie Baronbottom drops 1 piece of this set (Chest). Adventure Guide map pin: 54.9, 52.9 on the Cinderbrew Meadery map. Savvy businesswoman Goldie Baronbottom knows a good opportunity when she sees it--like the Cinderbrew Meadery. After barging in and swindling Wenbrandt out of business, Goldie mostly lets her cronies do the work. Even so, she's not afraid to roll up her sleeves and wallop do-gooders herself.
I'pa drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 41.3, 23.7 on the Cinderbrew Meadery map. The product of an industrial accident, mead elemental I'pa is as angry about its existence as it is about its meadery being disturbed. It is the full-bodied embodiment of the fiery punch of cinderbrew mead, and will lay anyone who tangles with it out flat.
Deep within the City of Threads lies the Transformatory - a once hallowed hall of nerubian evolution. Now, this place is used to transform "worthy" nerubians into the powerful ascended. The Weaver and the Vizier will stop at nothing to see the process brought to a grinding halt, before it consumes all of Azj-Kahet.
Orator Krix'vizk drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 60.0, 26.8 on the City of Threads map. Orator Krix'vizk of the Fifth Strand desires nothing more than ascension, and spends his days extolling the virtues of Queen Ansurek in hopes of gaining her favor. Despite his obsession, he is not without his defenses. Should any cross the Orator, they will find the sound of his bark is far, far worse than his bite.
Fangs of the Queen drops 1 piece of this set (Legs). Adventure Guide map pin: 70.5, 48.8 on the City of Threads map. Twins Nx and Vx were born together, raised together, and trained in the ways of subterfuge and assassination together. A deadly pair, they earned their ascension together as well. Together they now serve as Fangs of the Queen, taking out any would-be threats to Ansurek's reign with relish.
The Coaglamation drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.0, 47.0 on the City of Threads map. The Grand Splicer's evolutionary experiments often result in by-products of waste and sludge. This abhorrent glop may appear useless to some, but to Izo's clever ingenuity, it offers excellent material components for more experiementation--and a vicious monstrosity waiting to come to life.
Izo, the Grand Splicer drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.1, 78.4 on the City of Threads map. Evolution has long been a central part of nerubian life, and none possess greater passion or mastery of this process than Izo. Granted the methods of ascension by Ansurek, Izo pursues this path of perfection with determination, and little concern for who she serves, to what end, or at what cost.
