Frost Lord [ Death Knight ]

"The cold chill of the grave is my power--and death and suffering shall follow in my wake."

The Frost Death Knight is, perhaps, one of the most iconic of all of the Death Knights.  It is important to not only be strong and courageous while defeating your enemies but also looking the part helps instill fear into the enemy.  Frosty blue, black, and a touch of gold highlights helps this outfit to stand out among the crowd of every other Death Knight in the dread Necropolis of Acherus.

This transmogrification looks good with the second tier Artifact appearance, although any weapon equipped with a frosty appearance is good.  The hardest part of this outfit will be the belt as it drops from Elisande in The Nighthold.  However, the other pieces of gear should be easy to get including the PvP gear which only needs Marks of Honor.

Plated Skullguard (Quest Reward from Storm Peaks)
Midnight Herald's Pauldrons (Xavius - The Emerald Nighmare)
Wild Combatant's Dreadplate Chestpiece (Warlord's Season 2 PvP - 3 Marks of Honor)
Ethereal Crystal-Plated Gauntlets (Apexis Glove Trader - 20k Gold)
Waistplate of Fractured Realities (Elisande - The Nighthold)
Wild Combatant's Legplates (Warlord's Season 2 PvP - 3 Marks of Honor)
Wild Combatant's Warboots of Prowess (Warlord's Season 2 PvP - 2 Marks of Honor)
Warmongering Gladiator's Drape of Contemplation (Warlord's PvP - 1 Mark of Honor)

Demon Stalker [ Hunter ]

"Demons are more fun to hunt than the animals of Azeroth--Death to the Demons and victory to the Horde!"

Hunters understand the need for cunning and speed when hunting the numerous dangerous animals of the wilds of Azeroth.  With the return of demonic forces into the world many hunters have taken up stalking these fel soldiers of the Mad Titan with brutal cunning and some extra help from the animals that hunters once stalked.

Considering that Demons are the main focus of World of Warcraft: Legion, how better to celebrate hunting down the demonic forces of Kil'jaeden than with a transmog that exemplifies our tasks in the Broken Isles--and in fel green nonetheless.  Interestingly enough, most of the items can be easily obtained in Burning Crusade with only a few items needed in other expansions.

Manaburst Helm (Azsuna World Quest Reward)
Demon Stalker Shoulderguards (High King Maulgar - Gruul's Lair)
Demon Stalker Harness (Magtheridon - Magtheridon's Lair)
Demon Stalker Gauntlets (The Curator - Karazhan)
Short Jibbet Waistguard (Boss Drop in Return to Karazhan)
Demon Stalker Greaves (Gruul the Dragonkiller - Gruul's Lair)
Steelmaw's Stompers (Drop in Spires of Arak)
Grizzled Wolfskin Cloak (Drop from Grizzlemaw in Nagrand)

Don't forget to get your pet Corgi before time runs out!  Here's how to get it.

1.  When you log on to World of Warcraft check your mail.  There is a 12th Anniversary package waiting for you.  Open it up and accept the quest and note the 200 Timewarped Badges that you just got as well.

2.  The Quest takes you to Orgrimmar, you can use the portals found in Dalaran to get you there quickly.  Look for Historian Ju'pa in The Valley of Spirits--Spoiler Alert:  He's a Troll with lots of people hanging around him.

Acolyte of An'she [ Priest ]

"An'she smiles upon us all."

To be a priest in the world of Azeroth means that you command great power over life and death.  The Tauren, respecting the balance of these two powers, are able to use the Light to power life and death abilities--from healing an ally to utterly destroying furious gnomes.

The Acolyte represents the raw power of the Sun, the personification of the Light in Tauren traditions.  The outfit pieces are mostly found in the Broken Isles...so depending on how much you have worked in this area you may have most of the items needed for this stunning outfit.  An important note:  the headpiece is only found in Mythic Emerald Nightmare and may be hard to get--you might be able to find something that works well for the rest of this outfit if you cannot get into Mythic or haven't got the drop yet.

Celestially Aligned Hood (Il'gynoth - Mythic Emerald Nightmare)
Mantle of Perpetual Bloom (Cenarius - Emerald Nightmare)
Sparklight Robes (Quest Reward in Deepholm)
Trellised Handwraps (Pandaria Drop)
Cannonfire Cord (Drop from Galleon in the Valley of the Four Winds)
Vindictive Combatant's Drape of the Tracker (Found in Satchel of Battlefield Spoils)

Ashbringer's Champion [ Paladin ]

"The Light needs a Champion now more than ever."

Wielding the famed Ashbringer, the artifact weapon for Retribution Paladins, is no easy feat.  It requires skill, confidence, and a outfit that is killer.  Sadly, this transmog works better with female characters than it does with males--but I am sure there are more than a few female Tauren Paladins out there.  Additionally, the best skin for Ashbringer for this transmog happens to be the one you unlock for completing your Order Hall quests.

The outfit is mostly from crafted items...with a few accessories that you may have to work to find.  With the Crafted items you may be able to find them on the Auction House or ask a friend to craft them for you if you don't have Blacksmithing already. 

Lightbringer War-helm (Token from Archimonde from Hyjal Summit)
Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Scaled Shoulders (Crafted Item)
Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Scaled Chestpiece (Crafted Item)
Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Scaled Gauntlets (Crafted Item)
Girdle of the Silver Hand (Order Hall Progression)
Burned Gatherings (Karsh Steelbender from Cataclysm's Blackrock Caverns)

Druid of the Dreamgrove [ Druid ]



"The Dream is under attack--we must defend it at all costs"

The Druids of the Dreamgrove are currently fightin Xavius in the Emerald Nightmare; the source of druidic power that has been corrupted--hence the coloration in red.  While I am not a big fan of the color of this set; the overall effect is spectacular and quite beautiful amongst all of the Order Hall sets that I have run across so far.

The Dreamgrove set is easy to collect with most of the visable items being rewards for working on the Nighfallen and Druid storylines.  The only difficult part is the belt, but in all seriousness, even that is not difficult.  What also makes this set easy is the fact that you don't need pants, bracers, or even footgear as the robes cover all of these items--a fact that can be seen with most outfits on Tauren.

Hood of the Dreamgrove (Druid Campaign Quest Reward)
Armice of the Dreamgrove (Exalted with The Nightfallen)
Robes of the Dreamgrove (Druid Campaign Quest Reward)
Gloves of the Dreamgrove (Honored with The Nightfallen)
Cord of the Dreamgrove (Earn 100,000 Artiface Power)
No pants, bracers, or footgear are needed for this transmog
