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 13 pieces drop from 3 encounters in The Tidebound Grotto and The Venomous Abyss. 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 The Tidebound Grotto and The Venomous Abyss drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
Hidden beneath the waves of Atal'Utek lies the Tidebound Grotto, a submerged cave veiled by shifting tides. Within, the naga sorceress Nymrissa Wavecaller bends the tides to conceal her domain--and to drown any who dare uncover it.
- Nymrissa Wavecaller drops 1 piece of this set (Wrist). Adventure Guide map pin: 51.6, 54.0 on the The Tidebound Grotto map. Nymrissa Wavecaller commands the restless sea itself, concealing her lair beneath shifting tides. Those who dare uncover her sanctuary find her murloc minions eager to answer their mistress' call.
Guided by the dark whispers of Malacrass, Zul'jan has freed the forgotten broods of Ula'tek from their prison. As the monster's power grows, Zul'jarra calls upon the Champions of Azeroth to descend into the Vaults of Atal'Utek to stop her brother before the weapon is unleashed upon Azeroth.
- Sszorak drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 54.6, 72.4 on the The Venomous Abyss map. A horrifying creature, warped by Ula'tek's toxic venom, Sszorak is a brutal instrument of vengeance. Calling upon the winds that howl deep within Atal'Utek, it tears apart any living creature it encounters.
- The Twin Fangs drops 1 piece of this set (Chest). Adventure Guide map pin: 50.2, 57.3 on the The Venomous Abyss map. The first of Ula'tek's blood, Vexhul and Ithraz brood beneath a roiling sea of venom deep within the vault of Atal'Utek. Any foolish enough to enter the prison's inner chamber risk their monstrous jaws and toxic strikes.
