What This Set Covers

This is a complete head-to-toe outfit - it fills 8 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

6 of this set's 12 pieces drop from 5 encounters in Naxxramas and Vault of Archavon. 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.

Shared Pieces and Appearances

8 pieces share their appearance with items outside this set, each with its own collection source:

Look-Alike Sets

1 other set reuses the 3D models of Heroes' Bonescythe Battlegear’s head and shoulder, most shared models first:

  • Bonescythe Armor (Classic, 9 pieces): the same head and shoulder 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.
