What This Set Covers

Look-Alike Sets

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

Ymirjar Deathbringer's Battleplate (Wrath of the Lich King, 8 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.
