Set Pieces (13)
Preview in Dressing Room See this set on a 3D character.
All 13 pieces drop from bosses. It mixes Leather (11) and Cloth (2). 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
3 of this set's 13 pieces drop from 3 encounters in 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
3 bosses in 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.
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.
- Nek'zali the Soulcoiler drops 1 piece of this set (Back). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.3, 50.2 on the The Venomous Abyss map. Long ago, the shadow hunter Nek'zali and her followers were entombed for the blasphemous act of summoning Ula'tek. Restored by the very power she unleashed, she calls the other Soulcoilers from their tombs to serve her once more.
- The Twin Fangs drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.2, 57.3 on the The Venomous Abyss map. The first of Ula'tek's blood, Vexhul and Ithraz brood beneath a roiling sea of venom deep within the vault of Atal'Utek. Any foolish enough to enter the prison's inner chamber risk their monstrous jaws and toxic strikes.
- The Coiled Altar drops 1 piece of this set (Legs). 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.

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.
Other Versions of This Set
The game data carries 4 separate set records under the name Guile of the Monkey King - one per class or armor weight, plus the per-slot recolours the appearance was built from. This page is the one we index for the name; the others are listed here so nothing is lost.
