Where These Pieces Drop
1 of this set's 41 pieces drop from 1 encounter in Stratholme - Service Entrance. 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
1 boss in Stratholme - Service Entrance drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Stratholme was once the jewel of northern Lordaeron, but today it is remembered for its harrowing fall to ruin. It was here that Prince Arthas turned his back on the noble paladin Uther Lightbringer, slaughtering countless residents believed to be infected with the horrific plague of undeath. Ever since, cursed Stratholme has been marred by death, betrayal, and hopelessness.
Baroness Anastari drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 74.6, 46.9 on the Stratholme map. While she lived, Anastari took what she wanted, no matter the cost. Death has done little to change that. Her soul ripped from her body, Anastari became a banshee, and she has abandoned her love of material trinkets in favor of possessions of a far more sinister kind.

Versions and Companion Sets
8 companion sets shipped in the Darkmoon Faire group alongside it:
1 other set reuses the 3D models of Shadowcraft Armor’s head and shoulder, most shared models first:
Darkmantle Armor (Classic, 32 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.
