A collection of Transmogrification Kits actually worn in-game by my Tauren Shamans. Outfits are listed from most recent to least recent. Items that are no longer obtainable are marked with an asterisk (*).
10) Patinaed Serpent
Contender’s Scale set
I got most of this set by running dungeons and only had to craft the shoulders. The barrel rolling from the Greenstone Village scenario and Stormstout Brewery dungeon would be a great addition to the Brewfest activities!
9) Jade Witch
Jade Witch set with Huangtze Scale Helm
I liked this set of quest rewards from the very first zone of Pandaria so much that I Transmogrified it over the higher level quest rewards and kept wearing it until I’d collected all the pieces of the dungeon set.
8) Dancing Queen
Brigade Pauldrons, Champion’s Deathdealer Breastplate, Merciless Belt, Bloodmail Legguards*, Scarlet Gauntlets*, Netherstorm Greaves, Cloak of Azure Lights, Ebon Filigreed Doublet or Red Martial Shirt
During October 2012, JD Kenada invited us to join him in observing Breast Cancer Awareness Month by putting together our best pink Transmogrification Template Kits. Although I already thought of Kamaliya’s Scarlet Wrath set as her “pink” set, I’d been wanting to do something with the near-matching shades of the magenta Champion’s Deathdealer Breastplate and fuschia Netherstorm Greaves for some time. The Firemane Leggings are brilliant pink, and they were even available on my AH for a reasonable price… but I don’t like the style of them much. I decided to accent the pink with black and pulled out my Bloodmail Legguards. Then I needed a black shirt. I like how well the Red Martial Shirt coordinates with the Merciless Belt and Scarlet Gauntlets, and its black sleeves match the Bloodmail Legguards very nicely. I think it looks a little silly with the Champion’s Deathdealer Breastplate over the top, however, so I prefer the effect with the Ebon Filigreed Doublet even though the blacks don’t match quite as well.
The Merciless gloves would be suitable alternates for the Scarlet Gauntlets, and the Merciless or Firemane Leggings would be good choices instead of the Bloodmail Legguards — though the overall effect wouldn’t be the same, and the all-pink outfit wouldn’t want a shirt.
7) Hurricane
Shoulders of Lightning Reflexes, Cyclone (T4) chest & gloves, Imbued Infantry Belt, Vagaries of Time (Normal), Timepiece of the Bronze Flight (Raid Finder)
I was on another character when the pattern for these shoulders dropped. Fortunately, the pattern itself isn’t BoP! I was all set to fire up MogIt to create a new outfit to go with these shoulders, but after I saw how nicely they coordinated with the Cyclone set I was already wearing, I didn’t bother.
6) Cyclone
Cyclone (T4) shoulders chest & gloves, Imbued Infantry Belt, Vagaries of Time (Normal), Timepiece of the Bronze Flight (Raid Finder)
I have a great sentimental fondness for the Cyclone set because Karazhan was my first raiding experience. It helps that it’s a fantastic looking set of gear, too!
Until I obtained the Timepiece, I used Zom’s Crackling Bulwark with this set.
5) Tauren Mutant Ninja Turtle
Bog Epaulets, Netherstrike Breastplate & Belt, Leggings of Beast Mastery, Talhide gloves & boots, Extinct Turtle Shell
I originally wanted to make this set for my Hunter, Ketura, but the Netherstrike items are BoP to the crafter, so I had to make it for Kamalia instead.
4) Scarlet Wrath
Helm of Affinity, Seaspeaker Mantle, Wrathfin chestpiece & pants, Brigade belt gloves & boots, Lightning Dagger, Aegis of the Scarlet Commander*, Sawbones Shirt*
The Shield of the Wayward Footman is perhaps an even better shield to use with this pink and silver set.
3) Stormcaller of the Silver Covenant or the Blue Flight
Skyshatter (T6) Shoulderpads, Blue Dragonscale chest & leggings, Doc’s Belt, Sundered gloves & boots, Cloak of Cheerful Flowers, Devout Aurastone Hammer, Spellbreaker’s Buckler
Upon reaching level 80, mini-Kam decided that it was time for a New Look.
She’d won the Skyshatter Shoulderpads (T6) during a recent Laid Back Loot Raid, so she decided to combine them with her Blue Dragonscale chestpiece and leggings to make a (mostly) blue and silver Transmogrification Template Kit. I’ve concluded that Doc’s Belt is THE best belt to use with this chestpiece and leggings because of its gold buckle. I’ve been wanting to use the Spellbreaker’s Buckler on some character, any character, for quite awhile now, and its colors do coordinate rather nicely with the rest of the pieces I wanted to use. I used the Devout Aurastone Hammer to Transmogrify her mace because I already had it and it looked decent. Because Kamaliya still has some more LFD leveling to do, she’s using the blue Phantasmal Headdress to Transmogrify the red Preened Tribal War Feathers; the gold accents on the headdress and the gold accents on the chestpiece, leggings, and belt complement each other nicely. The Sundered gloves & boots and Mylune’s Cloak of Cheerful Flowers complete the set.
It’s a little Silver Covenant and a lottle Blue Dragonflight.
The Silvermoon War-Mace is the exact style match for the Spellbreaker’s Buckler and would heighten the association with the Silver Covenant. Kael’thas’ Cudgel of Consecration would be another good Silver Covenant weapon.
Malygos’s Ice Spire Scepter or the Starlight Dagger and the Mazthoril Honor Shield or the Lost Pavise of the Blue Flight would be great choices for playing up the association with the Blue Dragonflight.
2) The Shamadin
Glimmering Mail Pauldrons, Captain’s chestpiece belt gloves & boots, Triumphant Legplates, Restorative Mace, Emerald Shield, Green Linen Shirt
Almost as soon as I saw the Emerald Shield, I thought what a great RP outfit it would make for a Paladin in combination with the Captain’s mail set. Then Transmogrification came along, and I realized that if I wanted to execute the concept in PvE, I’d have to do it with a Shaman. Thus, I’ve always thought of this as my “Shamadin” outfit.
1) Volcano
Crown of Flame (Normal), Erupting Volcanic (T12) shoulders chest & gloves, Stormleather Sash, Incineratus, Pulsing Spellshield
I was wearing T12 at the time that Transmogrification debuted, and I liked it so much that I continued to use it for my Resto set for some time. Later, after I went back to the Cyclone gear for my Resto set, I decided to use T12 for my Elemental set — it somehow seems very appropriate for that spec!
Great job on all those sets. I love the backdrops for all of them. It’s still a shame I’m still missing 2 pieces from the scarlet set. I’m happy to say that I did farm the shield and hammer on my pali before the revamp though.
Thanks! Sometimes it seems like thinking of a good place to take pictures is the hardest part of making a set.
Glad you got as much of the scarlet set as you did, and that you got the shield & mace. 🙂 I guess I could have gotten them with my BE Pally, but I didn’t think my Tauren Warrior and Paladin were quite high enough level to solo the place just yet.
Kam! You have so many characters, and they are all dressed so wonderfully! My alts that aren’t max level are not so fly.
Thank you! /blush
I like your blue dragonscale set. I’ve never had success with those pieces myself, but sometimes I wonder if all you really need is the right race. Your tauren and her skin color really does make those items work well.
That set did come together quite serendipitously!
Just like in the real world, where what looks good on a person with one sort of complexion/coloration won’t necessarily look good on a person with a different complexion/coloration, the race & customization of the model definitely affect how good an outfit will look on them. Sometimes I’m stubborn and put an outfit on a model that it doesn’t work perfectly for anyway, though 😛
So many beautiful outfits I can’t decide if the Stormcaller of the Silver Covenant or Netherstrike is my favorite, how much storage space must you need, lol!
Heh, it helps to have two very similar characters to spread my outfit ideas over, but even then I’m kind of cramped for space. Maybe I should stop being so stingy about not wanting to pay the AH prices for bigger bags 😛
