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.

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.

The flavour text the item tooltip prints on 1 piece of this set:

• Chain of Thrayn: The prayer of an ancient Valhalas champion resonates through the links: 'If you stand in the light, you will never stand alone.'

1 other set reuses the 3D models of Merciless Gladiator's Ringmail Armor’s head and shoulder, most shared models first:

• Cataclysm Regalia (The Burning Crusade, 26 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.
