Where to Farm This Set
11 bosses in Heart of Fear, Pandaria and Terrace of Endless Spring drop pieces of this set. Each instance below carries its Adventure Guide entry, where its entrance is, and what each boss drops.
The Sha of Fear has corrupted the grand empress of the mantid. Her increasingly erratic and paranoid commands have driven the Klaxxi--the keepers of mantid culture--to take aggressive action. Because they are few in number, the Klaxxi are reluctantly willing to accept outside help in destroying the empress and purging their race of the sha's negative influence.
The entrance is in Dread Wastes at 38.7, 35.1 (/way #422 38.7 35.1).
Heart of Fear entrance
Imperial Vizier Zor'lok drops 1 piece of this set (Chest) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 69.0, 74.5 on the Heart of Fear map. Zor'lok shrieks his proclamations so they're heard throughout the sprawling mantid palace. He is the Voice of the Empress, and his words alone inspire the insectoid race's warriors to give their lives without question. Unwaveringly loyal, Zor'lok will stop at nothing to defend his beloved matriarch, regardless of the corruption within her.
Blade Lord Ta'yak drops 1 piece of this set (Legs) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 60.1, 19.7 on the Heart of Fear map. Ta'yak is known for his patience and intelligence. In battle, he is a master at discovering his opponent's weaknesses and awaiting the perfect opportunity to strike. Ta'yak's skill with a blade is unmatched, and he cherishes imparting his martial knowledge on young mantid warriors.
Garalon drops 1 piece of this set (Hands) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 66.5, 16.8 on the Heart of Fear map. It may be time to reconsider stepping on bugs. Don't make fun of this hulking behemoth's tiny wings; that'll just make him angry.
Wind Lord Mel'jarak drops 1 piece of this set (Shoulder) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 66.6, 32.9 on the Heart of Fear map. Wind Lord Mel'jarak commands the mantid's numerous aerial forces. Although he exudes arrogance, the cunning insectoid is fiercely protective of his soldiers and enjoys fighting at their side. Mel'jarak believes the mantid are superior to all other races, convinced that his kind cannot be defeated.
Amber-Shaper Un'sok drops 1 piece of this set (Feet) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 44.1, 73.7 on the Heart of Fear map. Eager to please his empress, Un'sok has produced several innovative concoctions. Yet this brilliant young alchemist's proximity to the mantid queen has allowed the sha's negative energies to take root in his mind. Now, Un'sok's overwhelming fear of failure drives him to create increasingly deadlier weapons.
Grand Empress Shek'zeer drops 1 piece of this set (Head) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 26.8, 73.7 on the Heart of Fear map. The ancient Klaxxi order has come to a mournful decision: the tainted grand empress Shek'zeer must be deposed. Traditionally, mantid rulers are displaced in their old age by a carefully chosen successor. However, Shek'zeer's intended replacement is still too young and weak to unseat her, leaving the Klaxxi with no choice but to kill the current empress. If action is not taken against her soon, all of Pandaria may crumble before the mantid's ravenous swarms.
Shrouded in mists since the world was sundered ten thousand years ago, the ancient realm of Pandaria has remained unspoiled by war. Its lush forests and cloud-ringed mountains are home to a complex ecosystem of indigenous races and exotic creatures. It is the homeland of the enigmatic pandaren, a race that celebrates life to the fullest even while under siege by an ancient menace.
The entrance is in The Veiled Stair at 48.1, 61.0 (/way #433 48.1 61.0).
Pandaria entrance
Salyis's Warband drops 4 pieces of this set (Head, Chest, Feet, Waist). Adventure Guide map pin: 71.7, 64.5 on the Valley of the Four Winds map. The ruthless saurok roam Pandaria, stealing what they can and harassing the island's other inhabitants. The most infamous of these reptilian pillagers are Chief Salyis and his warband. For years, the saurok commander and his raiders have stormed through the Valley of the Four Winds atop Galleon, a colossal and well-armed mushan that is more a moving fortress than a simple mount.
Sha of Anger drops 2 pieces of this set (Legs, Hands). Adventure Guide map pin: 54.4, 63.2 on the Kun-Lai Summit map. The Sha of Anger, the physical manifestation of rage, has escaped from the Shado-pan Monastery in Kun-Lai Summit. Amid the brutal conflicts gripping Pandaria, the dark entity has grown ever more powerful. Recently, the sha has been seen wandering Kun-Lai, using negative energies to corrupt everything the being encounters.
Hidden high in the mountains, the Terrace of Endless Spring is the sacred center of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. Its peaceful fountains are said to have the power to heal and rejuvenate, but when the Sha of Fear attacked, many of the complex's guardians turned on each other in fits of terror.
The entrance is in The Veiled Stair at 48.1, 61.0 (/way #433 48.1 61.0).
Terrace of Endless Spring entrance
Tsulong drops 2 pieces of this set (Chest, Waist) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 69.0, 49.3 on the Terrace of Endless Spring map. Legends speak of a spiraling, golden serpent that can sometimes be seen high in the sky, basking in the sunlight above the clouds. The few who claim to have observed it themselves say the creature is fiercely protective of the terrace.
Lei Shi drops 1 piece of this set (Waist) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 53.9, 49.3 on the Terrace of Endless Spring map. For countless years, this friendly water spirit frolicked in the Fountains of Endless Spring with childlike wonder and glee. When fighting suddenly broke out in this peaceful place, Lei Shi saw the crystal-clear water turn cloudy and murky, and terror fell over her mind.
Sha of Fear drops 1 piece of this set (Waist) on 10 Player and 25 Player. Adventure Guide map pin: 30.9, 49.3 on the Terrace of Endless Spring map. The Sha of Fear is the physical manifestation of terror in Pandaria.
