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 to Farm This Set
5 bosses in Sepulcher of the First Ones drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.

Versions and Companion Sets
16 companion sets shipped in the Sepulcher of the First Ones group alongside it:
2 other sets reuse the 3D models of Habiliments of the Empyrean’s head, shoulder, chest, waist and legs, most shared models first:
Cosmic Gladiator's Satin Armor (Shadowlands, 15 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist and legs models, recoloured.
Eternal Gladiator's Satin Armor (Shadowlands, 30 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist and legs 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.
