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.
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.

Where These Pieces Drop
3 of this set's 17 pieces drop from 3 encounters in Vault of the Incarnates. 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 Vault of the Incarnates drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
The Primalists breached the Titan prison used to hold the Incarnates for millennia. Within, Raszageth performs a foul ritual to unleash her siblings, so together they can purge the world of the Titans' influence. The champions of Azeroth must assault this impregnable fortress and break their defenses to end this threat. While many could fall, defeat condemns all the realms to the Incarnates' reign of fire and blood.
The entrance is in Thaldraszus at 73.2, 55.6 (/way #2025 73.2 55.6).
Vault of the Incarnates entrance
Sennarth, the Cold Breath drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 28.7, 35.8 on the Vault of the Incarnates map. Sennarth, Kurog Grimtotem's most vicious creation, is a massive arachnid infused with the unforgiving cold. Her singular purpose is to guard her brood of thousands, awaiting the day they'll hatch and enshroud Azeroth in a web of winter.
Broodkeeper Diurna drops 1 piece of this set (Legs). Adventure Guide map pin: 51.0, 52.1 on the Vault of the Incarnates map. Broodkeeper Diurna is the fierce guardian of the Primalist Clutchwarren. She devotes her considerable strength to protect the unhatched and seeks vengeance for the one she lost.
Raszageth the Storm-Eater drops 1 piece of this set (Hands). Adventure Guide map pin: 55.6, 60.8 on the Vault of the Incarnates map. Raszageth devoutly believes that dragonkind was meant to be as wild and free as the storm itself. Should she succeed at freeing her fellow Incarnates from their ancient prison, Raszageth and her kin will topple the Aspects and scour the world clean of every trace of the titans' influence.

Versions and Companion Sets
The game links 3 other versions to Scales of the Awakened, each labelled the way the collection journal labels it. This page is the Heroic version.
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Scales of the Awakened’s head, shoulder, chest, waist, feet and hands, most shared models first:
Crimson Gladiator's Chain Armor (Dragonflight, 28 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist, feet and hands 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.
Other Versions of This Set
Scales of the Awakened exists as 4 set records in the game data. The version we index for this name is set 2604; this page covers one of the other records.
