Where These Pieces Drop
3 of this set's 12 pieces drop from 3 encounters in Khaz Algar and Liberation of Undermine. 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 Khaz Algar and Liberation of Undermine drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Khaz Algar's depths have been met with great disturbances in recent times. With the Coreway disrupted and the nerubians on the rise, other threats have arisen as well. Kordac, the Dormant Protector has risen to defend the Isle of Dorn. In the Ringing Deeps, an Aggregation of Horrors awaits. Hallowfall's waters have been disturbed by Shurrai, Atrocity of the Undersea. And in the depths of Azj-Kahet, the deepwalker Orta, the Broken Mountain, has been twisted by Black Blood.
The Gobfather drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Once a source of pride for the Bilgewater Cartel, this mech was a force to be reckoned with in the Demolition Dome. A pinnacle of goblin innovation... until someone forgot to give it an oil change. Now the King of the Demo Dome has gone haywire, running amok and threatening to unleash havoc upon the citizens of Undermine.
Despite the best efforts of the united cartels, Jastor Gallywix has holed himself away in The Gallagio and called in every favor ever owed to him... leaving a mountain of would-be oppressors between the goblins of Undermine and the Chrome King. Gazlowe and the rest of goblinkind will need to find their way into the casino to rid themselves of Gallywix for good.
The entrance is in Undermine at 42.1, 50.4 (/way #2346 42.1 50.4).
Liberation of Undermine entrance
Cauldron of Carnage drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.6, 18.8 on the Undermine map. Throughout history there have been many epic wars, but none more explosive than the rivalry between the galvanic gorilla Torq the Tempest, and the molten mechasaur Flarendo the Furious. Tonight, all bets are off when these two champions clash in the cauldron for a showdown that threatens to tear Undermine in two! Witness the carnage or be the shame of goblin kind.
Rik Reverb drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 36.4, 19.0 on the Undermine map. Rik Reverb loves the boom of an explosion, the crackle of a firework and most importantly, the sound of his own voice. From his flying sonic resonator, Rik serves as Gallywix's partying promoter by enthralling the citizens of Undermine with addictive and deadly goblin beats.
Set Bonus
5 pieces of this appearance set also belong to the item set Roots of Reclaiming Blight, which carries these bonuses in the game files:

Versions and Companion Sets
The game links 3 other versions to Roots of Reclaiming Blight, each labelled the way the collection journal labels it. This page is the Normal version.
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Roots of Reclaiming Blight’s head, shoulder, waist, legs, hands and chest, most shared models first:
Prized Gladiator's Leather Armor (The War Within, 19 pieces): the same head, shoulder, waist, legs, hands and chest 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.
The game data carries 4 separate set records under the name Roots of Reclaiming Blight - 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.
