Yeah, yeah, I know, Mists is so two expansions ago. Nonetheless, the Golden Lotus Tabard is one of my favorites not just from Pandaria, but from all the available tabards.
Serene Lotus
Crown of the Fire Festival, Replica Virtuous shoulders robe & belt, Exiled Dabbler’s Gloves, Drape of the Twins, Golden Lotus tabard
This is the blindingly obvious outfit for a cloth-wearer to use with this tabard.
Glowing Lotus
Lawbringer Armor with Sunsoul Helm, Dawnsteel Shoulders, Drape of the Twins, The Willbreaker, Don Carlos’ Drifting Shield, and Golden Lotus tabard
This kit is exceedingly class specific — but the idea for it is one of the main reasons why I farmed up the Lawbringer Armor. It’s just taken me forever to get around to actually making the outfit…
This shield appeared in Cataclysm, but its design has always seemed quite Oriental Pandarian to me.
Vision Lotus
Crusader’s Pauldrons, Dreamwalker Armor, Triumphant Girdle, Emberweave Leggings, Ornate Gauntlets & Greaves, Cloak of Tranquil Clouds, Mace of Serenity, Talador Spellbarrier, Golden Lotus tabard
Although it would have been very easy to make this kit all golden, it needed some silver in it to harmonize with the white of the tabard.
Zen Lotus
Whisper Jerkin, Vine Waistband, Bluegill Breeches*, Runesworn Grips, Griftah’s Authentic Troll Shoes, Cloak of Tranquil Clouds, Golden Saronite Dragon, Golden Lotus tabard
It took a couple of weeks of planting Enigma Seeds and harvesting & replanting anything that wasn’t a Golden Lotus to get a garden completely full of them.
Those are fantastic! You sure are great at finding the best locations π
That tabard O.o Wow?! Ive never seen it before – didnt play during MoP.
So detailed.
The picture at
is so great, there is just something about the angle.
Nicely captured, all of them π
Sometimes, the locations are easy to choose π
Many of the Pandaria tabards are beautifully colored and quite finely detailed. Pandaria also has some really beautiful cloak designs.
Yeah, that I did notice – the design of cloaks certainly went up around that era π
It is beautiful. My eyes always light up to see tmogs that are brighter or lighter; we have so many very dark or black pieces of armor and in the gloom of raids and dungeons people can get lost! I suppose for immersions, a black-clad stealthy rogue makes sense, of course. But I like to taunt the mobs and wave and say “here I am, come get me”!
Thank you! I prefer bright, cheerful outfits, too (even for my Rogue)!
You are so right, very few good detailed white-ish sets out there, actually.
My rogue wears pink! It’s not particularly sneaky (plus she’s a dwarf) but so far the horror factor seems to be working in pvp. In fact someone actually ran away from me the other day. Honesty suggests that it was more a fear of being killed by a pink clad female dwarf than a tribute to my mad skillz unfortunately.
Haha, that’s hilarious!
Especially love the Zen Lotus one.
Thanks! I didn’t really have any good ideas for that one before I started working on it, so I’m glad that it turned out so nicely π
Oh, I love the Lotus Pond and especially love the pink touches in that set.
Thank you! Sometimes it’s those little touches of an accent color that really make an outfit shine π
