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

Where These Pieces Drop
3 of this set's 12 pieces drop from 3 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
3 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).

Ulgrax the Devourer drops 1 piece of this set (Legs). Adventure Guide map pin: 53.2, 38.8 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. Queen Ansurek's evolutionary experimentation created a number of monstrous guardians for her throne, none more voracious than Ulgrax the Devourer. Driven mad by endless hunger, Ulgrax is now the ravenous protector of Queen Ansurek's court.
Broodtwister Ovi'nax drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). 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.
Queen Ansurek drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder). Adventure Guide map pin: 47.8, 54.6 on the Nerub-ar Palace map. After a revelation of traitors in her court, Queen Ansurek decides she must eradicate the palace's invaders herself. However, paranoia over whom she can trust gnaws at her psyche. With her allies dwindling, Queen Ansurek may delve into dark powers to attain victory, even if that means her most loyal soldiers become her next meal...

Versions and Companion Sets
16 companion sets shipped in the Nerub-ar Palace group alongside it:
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Gatecrasher's Fortitude’s head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs and hands, most shared models first:
Forged Gladiator's Leather 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.
