Light's Embrace [Priest]


"The Light will prevail with heroes like you."

The Light can be used for many things; to protect the weak, to heal the sick, and to drive the demons away from Azeroth.  Wielding the healing power of the Light; these priests are on the front line of all battles; heroically healing those injured and providing reassurance to those who need it most—the most powerful force in the universe is right beside them.

The shoulders for this transmog were so unique and interesting that I wanted to make a transmogrification around them.  Sadly, I couldn't match the green mist with anything else, but in the end, I think that is fine.  Many of these items come from the Random Number Generator in World of Warcraft and, as such, might take some time to put together.  The end result, however, is quite nice and fits any Priest quite well.

Chaos-Scarred Mantle (Chronomatic Anomaly - Mythic Nighthold)
Robes of Demonic Purpose (Inquisitor Metro or Sotanthor -Legion Invasion Portal)

The Trial of Style is Here…Again!


For those who missed out on the Trial of Style last year there is good news; this week starts the second season!  This micro-holiday is a great way to test your creative abilities (especially on a time limit), work towards getting new items for your transmogrification collection, and to have fun doing something you don’t get to do in-game all the time.

The Trial of Style pits you and five other people in a fashion contest.  You are able to queue for the instance at the transmogrifier in any major city.  Shortly after entering the instance a theme will be announced, and you have two and a half minutes to work on your transmog!  Once complete, or when the timer runs out, you take your turns modeling the outfit and voting on your favorite.  The Trial takes about five minutes and is easy to complete.

You earn tokens for competing and the higher up you rank in the fashion show means you get more tokens you get.  These tokens are used to purchase Ensembles for everyday wear and, this year, you can even purchase props which can be used in the Trial of Style instance to help show off your creation.  You may need to queue up several times to get the Ensemble set that you want—but its easy and doesn’t take long at all.

The new Ensembles you can purchase this year are:

Ensemble: Mindwrack Raiment (cloth)

Ensemble: Tundraspite Armor (leather)

Ensemble: Crimson Sentinel Garb (mail)

Ensemble: Goldspine Plate (plate)

The props, while just for fun, will really make your screenshots really stand out — and maybe even help you win.  These items can be purchased in the instance by a friendly vendor.  The props you can purchase are:Trial of Style Flames, Trial of Style Spotlight, and Trial of Style Dance Floor.  These items should be a lot of funbut sadly only work in the Trial of Style instance.

If you didn't get the sets from last year don't worry: you can still purchase the first season's  Ensembles.  Each set is sixty tokens; so you need to do the instance several times and you can only purchase Ensembles that match your armor type.

You have the rest of this week to take part in the Trial of Style...after that it ends for yet another year.

Tribal [Shaman]


"While we walk a different path from from other Shaman; we still answer the Element's call"

Dealing with the bones of the fallen, with sacred drums and rattles, and wielding carefully crafted totems; these spiritual leaders of the tribal groups of Azeroth take their job seriously.  Protecting not only the lands of their people but the connection with the elements as well; these witch doctors and tribal shamans hear the call of Azeroth to protect not only the sacred land, but their people as well.  Woe to those who defile the ground, who slaughter the innocent, who tread on taboo lands—the wrath of the Shaman is here.

A first look at transmogrification for the Highmountain Tauren.  I have to admit that I have been focused on leveling as a Shaman and, as such, have a lot of ideas for this class.  The helm has always been my favorite but it usually works best with the rest of the set--so I wanted to find something that the helm could go with.  The majority of these items comes from Wrath of the Lich King (my favorite expansion) so you may have some of these items already in your Appearances Tab.  The end result is a good look for somebody that wants a little less civilization in their transmogrification.

Snowstorm Helm (Valitheria Dreamwalker - 25H Icecrown Citadel)
Brittle Flamereaver's Pauldrons (Drop - Isle of Thunder)
Cuirass of Cruel Intent (Icehowl -25H Trial of the Crusader)

Priestess of the Flame [Priest]


"The flames of the temples must be well tended"

Tending the flames of the temples around Azeroth is quite a task and one that many do not take lightly.  Accorded a special place in the circle of Priests; these individuals are ready for battle no matter where it may take them.

While this set focuses mainly on PvP items gathered from this expansion, there are a couple of additions from previous expansions that help round it out.  Red and gold is obviously the main color scheme and may be different from other Priest’s choices...but this outfit you will help you stand out from the crowd.  Interestingly enough; this set looks good on both male and female models which is not always the case with cloth gear.

Ferocious Gladiator's Satin Hood (PvP Season 6 in Legion)
Primal Aspirant's Satin Mantle (PvP Season 1 in Warlords - Three Marks of Honor)
Dominant Gladiator's Satin Robe (PvP Season 6 in Legion)

Death's Totem [Shaman]

"There are good spirits and bad spirits in the other world...I deal with both"

The space between the spirit realm and the waking world is thin and requires constant vigilance to ensure that some spirits do not come back.  These guardians who preside over some of the Horde death practices help ensure that no vengeful spirits ever make their way back to wreak havoc on the living as well as provide communication with those departed.

This set utilizes two amazing parts of the Legion Gladiator gear for Shaman...the best I feel being the belt.  The main theme, of course, is skulls with the gloves helping to tie in the belt used in this transmogrification.  Who doesn't like skulls on their armor?    Keeping the general color scheme helped to create an armor set that not only looks nice but is sure to get a few heads turning for a second look while battling it out in Azeroth.

Wild Gladiator's Helm (PvP Season 2 in Warlords - Three Marks of Honor)
Brittle Flamereaver Pauldrons (Drop from Isle of Thunder)
Fierce Gladiator's Ringmail Armor (PvP Season 5 in Legion)

Frozen Wrath [Death Knight]

"Death is like ice; cold and uncaring"

Trained on the ancient glacier of which the dead wander aimlessly; these Death Knights are the epitome of the Frost of which they wield.  With the chilling touch of the grave these Knights take the battle to all foes both living and dead.  Death knows no bounds and these frozen Knights are truly unstoppable as the death they wield.

A mix and match of different armor from different expansions always leads to something interesting and fun.  The shoulders are my favorite and finding a transmogrification that helps lend to the ferocity of Death Knights.  Adding more items that were blue tinged or with skulls on them helped complete the final outfit seen here.  Wielding the Blades of the Fallen Prince, especially with the icy weapon skin, totally completes this look.  So go out there and freeze your enemies blood…in style.

Peacebreaker's Heavy Helm (Quest: Nazgrim's Command - The Jade Forest)
Wrathful Gladiator's Dreadplate Shoulders (PvP - Season 8)

Defender [Warrior]

"Halt!  Who goes there?  Just kidding."

They are the guards and the watchers; dedicated to keeping their homes and families safe.  They are the keepers and defenders; willing to risk their own lives for others.  They spend long hours under the hot sun in faraway places and frequent the many taverns while not on duty.  They are the ones that respond the quickest the threats in the heart and borders of Horde territory.  They are the defenders of the Horde and they are here slay the Alliance which would threaten the Horde--at all costs.

The belt helps to bulk up the body of an already bulky Tauren which make the character appear massive...perfect for a warrior.  The helm was very hard to chose for this transmogrification...that is why I went with no helm.  This set started with the chest, legs, and belt and moved on from there--eventually adding in the spiky features of the PvP gear.  The items for this transmogrification should be easy to get if you haven't gotten them already--with the exception of the belt which can only be dropped by Aggramar on mythic difficulty.

Ferocious Gladiator's Plate Shoulders (PvP - Legion)
Blackrock Chestpiece (Level 2 War Mill in your Garrison)

The Sleeper [Druid]


"Hibernation does wonders the body and mind--but sometimes you wake up on the wrong side of the barrow..."

The Legion has disturbed their slumber and all shall pay the price.  These defenders of nature have awoken in time to help punish the enemies of Azeroth; armed with bladed weapons, natural healing, brute primal strength, and a strong desire to get back to sleep; the defenders of Azeroth have another ally watching their backs.  "Never wake a sleeping bear" is an apt saying, but you should fear waking a sleeping druid even more.

I love the Winterfin Patch of Honor...it makes any transmogrification a little more ferocious.  Add in bear claws and sharp armor bits and you have yourself a winner!  This set mostly came from the fact that I had some of the Gladiator transmog but not all of it and I still wanted to wear it and be fashionable in the streets of Dalaran.  Finding a good belt was a little difficult...leather belts are kinda boring sometimes.  However, in the end, this transmogrification looks dangerous and cuddly at the same time--perfect for when you are out of animal form (are druids ever out of animal form?).

Winterfin Patch of Honor (30 Winterfin Clams - Borean Tundra)

Fel-Touched [Hunter]


"Fel burns more than flesh; it has a way of torturing the soul as well...be wary of it."

Fighting the Legion does have its benefits...as well as its drawbacks.  Hunting the unending hordes of the Legion seems to leave a bit of Fel with all it touches—even those brave heroes of Azeroth who have taken the fight to the Burning Legion.  Some, however, have accepted this change and embraced the Fel, much like the demon hunters have, and used the power of the corrupted energies to give them the extra edge to punish the demons for coming to the lands of Azeroth.

This set started with the gloves and the chest and developed from there.  The gloves are, by far, my favorite part of this set and the chest piece brilliantly ties them in to almost anything you can put together.  Yes, the main color scheme for this expansion is green (and I think many of us are getting tired of this color), but I fell that many elements of this transmogrification will translate into the next expansion armors as well.


Castellan's Blinders (Moroes - Return to Karazhan)
Feludius Mantle (Ascendant Council - Normal The Bastion of Twilight)
Enthralling Chain Armor (Greater Invasion -Sotanathor or Mistress Alluradel)
Fel-Linked Crushers (Greater Invasion - Sotanathor, Pit Lord Vilemus, or Inquisitor Metro)
Links of the Disintegrator (Durumu the Forgotten - Heroic Throne of Thunder)
Cloak of Stifling Brimstone (Goroth - Tomb of Sargeras)

While wearing pants and shoes are recommended for this transmogrification they are not visible and do not need to be changed.  Like with most Tauren transmogrifications; no bracers are needed.

Companions of the Red Fist [Monk}


"Why do we fight? To protect Home, and Family... To preserve Balance, and bring Harmony."

The Companions spend their time in spiritual contemplation and diligent martial practice in the quiet places around Azeroth.  However, the Companions of the Red Fist pride themselves on their combat skills and are always ready to serve as skilled fighters at a moment’s notice.  As such, they are often utilized as guards for monasteries or employed as escorts for the transportation of documents, dignitaries, or barrels of beer.  Recently the Companions have found themselves needed around more parts of Azeroth in these times of troubles—often teaming up with adventurers to take on bigger problems.

This set is a simple transmogrification for the Monk class; but I have found that sometimes the simpler the better.  The Worldbender's Waistband and the Mask help add a little bit of color into this set--just enough to where the overall outfit isn’t seen as too dull.  Grab your friends and travel to Hellfire Citadel in the jungles of Tanaan to work on attaining a good portion of these armor looks if you don't already have them--and take time to enjoy the splendors of Winterspring, the land of perpetual winter, for some other items on this list (bring a scarf).

Mask of the Hurricane's Eye (Kormrok - Normal Hellfire Citadel)

Odyn's Chosen [ Warrior ]


"For Odyn!"

The Chosen of Odyn are few but don't let their small numbers fool you--they more than make up it on the battlefield.  Brutal, savage, and valor-bound; the Chosen are the sword of the mightiest of the Titan-forged and ready for battle anytime and anywhere.  Prepared against the day that Yogg-Saron's escapes his prison the Chosen a powerful army ready for battle at a moment's notice.

This set can be farmed exclusively in the current expansion (Legion) and is collected by running various dungeons.  The transmogrification is somewhat monochromatic but still looks good on a Tauren warrior especially with a weapon that stands out.  For those that have been playing Legion for a while you may already have this set.

Crown of Ash (Ash'golm - Vault of the Wardens)
Mortar Guard Shoulderplates (Tirathon Saltheril - Vault of the Wardens)
Breastplate of Preservation (Oakheart - Darkheart Thicket)

Riven Priestess [ Priest ]


"The Shadow calls...do you hear it?"

A blind eye is given to those who work with the Shadow; tolerated in Netherlight Temple and whispered about in the corners of well-lit halls.  The Shadow Priest, however, understands the need for balance while delving headfirst into the Shadow for in the Shadow there is power.

Ever since I first started getting the Riven cloth gear I was enthralled.  It looked nice, especially for a Shadow Priest, and I wanted to see if I could incorporate part of the set into a nice looking transmogrification.  There were a few things that needed to be changed, obviously, but the overall effect is something demonic and dark yet forged in the Light...an interesting blend.  As a note, the gloves have a lot of different lookalikes and can be found all over Draenor...the glove model is not unique.

As an important note: the helm only looks good on the female model.

Riven Priesthood Cap (Relinquished Hood - Thaumaturge Vashreen)
Riven Priesthood Amice (Relinquished Spaulders - Thaumaturge Vashreen)
Raiment of the Ternion Glory (Heroic Vendor in Shrine of Two Moons)
Anruin's Grips of Agony (World Drop - Draenor)
Wild Combatant's Cord of Cruelty (Warlords Season 2 PvP - 1 Mark of Honor)
Inherited Cape of the Black Baron (Heirloom)

Like with most Tauren transmogrifications; no bracers are needed.  Additionally, don't worry about the pants or shoes (though I recommend wearing them!).

The Brute [Warrior]


"The Horde will be victorious...or die trying."

Often mocked for their lack of magical powers; the Brutes of the Horde do not listen to fools.  They know that in the heat of battle against their adversaries it is the strength of their arm, the temper of their blades, and the size of their heart that matters.  Rushing headfirst into battle is their calling and to live or die for the Horde is the greatest accomplishment this group of soldiers believe in--Slay the enemy, take their stuff, rinse, repeat.

I chose to not have a helm show on this transmogrification for two reasons: first, the gear follows part of the fantasy of the class by epitomizing brute force and berserk rage (and the lack of regard for proper head protection in combat), and two, I couldn't find a helm I liked with this outfit.  You can choose if you want to see your Tauren's head while playing or find a helm that you actually like (for plate items it is difficult sometimes with the Tauren model).

No Helm (Turn it off at the Transmogrifier)

Eagle Rider [ Hunter ]

"To soar with the eagles is the greatest honor of all."

The Eagle Riders, the newest conscripts for the fight against the Legion, tend to the eagles which help in many of the battles not only on the Broken Isles, but the Broken Shore as well.  Known to be reclusive and somewhat odd, these hunters have taken it upon themselves to protect Azeroth alongside their feathered allies no matter what the cost.

This transmogrification came from my desire to find an outfit that incorporated the some of the Eagletalon Battlegear set with other items found throughout the game--the helm and other parts of the set did not go well with me.  However, the end result emphasizes the shoulders and gauntlets and keeps a good theme overall.  Some of these items may be hard to find, but in the end, the transmog that you end up with is sure to turn a few heads in Dalaran.

Formidable Circlet (Drop in Winterspring or Un'Goro Crater)
Eagletalon Spaulders (Tichondrius in LFR Nighthold)
Brvet's Hauberk of Command (Drop from rare mob Captain Brvet in Stormheim)

Grove Tender [ Druid ]

"Fortune favors the bold; but the bold favor a good healer."

With the battle raging between the Legion and the Armies of Light a call has gone out for not only those who are able to fight but also for those who are able to heal.  With the battle raging many who would not normally be called into battle now flock to aid the armies that protect the lands of Azeroth.  The Grove Tenders, traditionally chosen to tend for sacred groves and the animals of the forest, have been called into service.

The idea for this transmogrification was to try to keep it simple.  Many of my other outfits are quite showy or extravagant.  The Sanctified Lasherweave pieces were the base, but I do not like the model of the shoulders or the helm and came up with different solutions.  With a green-tinted G'Hanir; this transmogrification will look amazing.

Snowdrift Helm (Purchased in Townlong Steppes in Pandaria)

Wild Gladiator [ Druid ]

"Death to our enemies...tear them apart!"

When it comes to ferocity on the battlefield, the druids have it covered.  Channeling the feral power of the predator to quickly slay their targets, the feral druid is easily feared by many of the Alliance.  Dressing in the skins of the Sabermaw invokes the spirit of those dread predators and gives power to the druid.

Today we look at the complete set for the Wild Gladiator, found in Ashran in the last expansion.  This set is barbaric, brutal, and quite stylish for those who wish to add a bit of brutal terror on the battlefield.  The set can be easily obtained with Marks of Honor, which as stated in other transmog sets I have posted, are quite easy to obtain.

Wrathful Gladiator's Dragonhide Helm (Three Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Pauldrons (Two Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Tunic (Three Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Legguards (Three Marks of Honor)

Acolyte of the White Tiger [ Monk ]

"White Tiger watch over us."

Those monks who study and learn the secrets of the White Tiger train hard and with such devotion that even the famed acolytes of the Red Crane pale in comparison.  The White Tiger is strength and ferocity tempered by wisdom and compassion and his acolytes exemplify this philosophy.

The transmogrification set started off with the shoulders which I really liked.  Moving on through the outfit it was apparent that only beaten gold accents, such as found in the gloves and the kilt, worked quite well.  The helm, sadly, really only works well with female Tauren and the red found on the helm was the inspiration for the belt which helps tie in the entire outfit together.  Most items can be found in Siege of Ogrimmar and can only be obtained with your monk--so get out there and start farming!

Darkfang Mask (Earthbreaker Haromm - Heroic Siege of Ogrimmar)
Hopeglow Spaulders (Garrosh Hellscream - Siege of Ogrimmar)
Decorated Deathstalker Jerkin (Quest: Fate of the Queen's Reprisal - Azsuna)

Crimson Gauntlets of Death (Drop - Siege of Ogrimmar)
Waistclasp of Unethical Power (Drop - The Nighthold)
Scrupleless Bracers (Quest: Pierce Their Heart! - Ashenvale)

Surprise!  I've added bracers this time, but you don't need footwear.

Wrathful Gladiator [ Warrior ]

"The battle is never done; not with those Alliance dogs who keep trying to nip at the wolves."

For a warrior of the Horde, death and destruction are always right around the corner.  These stalwart defenders take the battle directly to the Alliance to defend the Horde and their very way of life from an enemy that wants to utterly destroy them.

The Wrathful Gladiator set, found in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, was a set that I always envied--so I've made a transmogrification for it with only two minor changes; the belt needed to be changed and I added a cloak.  The belt that came with this battleset wasn't visually strong enough and I chose another belt that was still easy to find.  Cloak are not always important but I added a one to this transmogrification that has the same basic colors of the outfit.  The PvP sets are extremely easy to get nowadays as the tokens to purchase them are account-bound and there is always at least one PvP World Quest in Legion that offers Marks of Honor as a reward.

Wrathful Gladiator's Plate Helm (Three Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Plate Shoulders (Two Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Plate Chestpiece (Three Marks of Honor)
Wrathful Gladiator's Plate Legguards (Three Marks of Honor)

Child of the Flame [ Shaman ]

"The flame comforts but it also destroys...nature defined in such a simple thing."

One of the first shaman groups to enter the Firelands to help end the reign of Ragnaros; the Children of the Flame set out to destroy the corruption of the element of fire.  In this dangerous element these shamans understand the duality of fire, both as a creator and as a destroyer--while fire can create civilizations, it is fire than can consume them as well.  Successfully wielding fire is power and to fail means certain death.

I have been a fan of the Fearless Gladiator set when I first saw it come out in Season Two of the Legion PvP except for the chest and the helm.  By incorporating another set, in this case the Battlebound Set, the two seem to meld quite nicely in this transmogrification.  This set goes along with the other element-themed shaman outfits and can only be found in Legion with the exception of the helm.

Crown of Flame (Ragnaros - Firelands)
Fearless Gladiator's Ringmail Spaulders (Legion Season Two PvP)
Battlebound Hauberk (Leatherworking)

Serpent's Will [Monk]

"The Jade Serpent brings life...I bring death."

The destruction of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms have left many monks devastated.  While the desire for revenge was tempered by the Celestials it was only a matter of time before something pushed the normally peaceful protectors further.  With the wanton destruction of the sacred sites of the Pandaran monks by the Burning Legion it is time to take the fight to the demons.  While some monks focus on healing and meditation; others have taken a more practical approach to the battle at hand.

As I am now working on leveling up my monk I figured it was time to give some more love to the monk class.  Traditionally, monks have been peaceful and not quick to a fight so I wanted something that would be deadly looking to challenge the status quo.  The PvP gear has never been easier to get as the tokens are account bound.  The only hard part to get might be the girdle as it may take some time for it to drop.  As a note, the belt matches the color of the Jade Serpent animations from the shoulders.
