Where These Pieces Drop
2 of this set's 14 pieces drop from 2 encounters in Sepulcher of the First Ones. 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
2 bosses in Sepulcher of the First Ones drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
The Jailer has breached the Sepulcher, the mysterious heart of the Shadowlands. Should he control its primordial power, he will reshape the cosmos with Death at the fore. As Zovaal prepares to dominate reality, champions of Azeroth charge forth to stop him. Will their resolve outmatch his?
The entrance is in Zereth Mortis at 81.0, 53.3 (/way #1970 81.0 53.3).
Sepulcher of the First Ones entrance
Dausegne, the Fallen Oracle drops 1 piece of this set (Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 52.2, 43.3 on the Sepulcher of the First Ones map. Dominated by the Jailer, Dausegne leads the Mawsworn in a battle to gain control of the Forge of Afterlives. The Jailer plans to use its power to unleash an eternity of torment upon all of reality.
Prototype Pantheon drops 1 piece of this set (Feet). Adventure Guide map pin: 32.6, 70.3 on the Sepulcher of the First Ones map. Bereft of the cosmic spirits of the Eternal Ones, these incomplete host bodies can only carry out their base directives without mercy or compassion. With the enemy at the gates, Lihuvim has little choice but to activate these dangerous prototypes.
Set Bonus
5 pieces of this appearance set also belong to the item set Soulblade Shadowhide, which carries these bonuses in the game files:
2 pieces (Assassination): Shiv causes enemies within 15 yards to take 40% increased damage from your Poisons and Bleeds for 9 seconds.
2 pieces (Outlaw): Your Main Gauche has a 25% chance to fire a Pistol Shot.
2 pieces (Subtlety): Shadowstrike has a 15% chance to grant Shadow Blades for 5 sec.

4 pieces (Subtlety): Your finishing moves have a 3% chance per combo point to cast Shadowstrike at up to 5 enemies within 15 yards.
Versions and Companion Sets
16 companion sets shipped in the Sepulcher of the First Ones group alongside it:
2 other sets reuse the 3D models of Soulblade Shadowhide’s head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs, feet and hands, most shared models first:
Cosmic Gladiator's Leather Armor (Shadowlands, 13 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs, feet and hands models, recoloured.
Eternal Gladiator's Leather Armor (Shadowlands, 26 pieces): the same head, shoulder, chest, waist, legs, 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.
Buying the Tradeable Pieces
2 pieces of Soulblade Shadowhide can be listed on the Auction House (they do not bind on pickup); 2 have a listing on US connected realms in our latest scan.
Lowest listed price on any US connected realm in our recorded Auction House scan, per piece; transmog gear is priced per realm, so the realm named is where that price was seen.
