Some expansions have ’em, some expansions don’t, and I’ve only collected the ones that I like.
I acquired almost all of these items during Legion, when the PvP-focused World Quests awarded account-bound Marks of Honor that could be used to purchase past-season PvP gear — and certain Order Halls had an upgrade that allowed one WQ per day to be instantly completed.
Some of the pieces I’ve acquired, I’ve Mogged with; others, I haven’t yet.
Mage PvP gear that IS a recolor of a Raid set will be posted with the corresponding Raid set, naturally.

Classic
Knight-Captain’s Silk Tunic, Field Marshal’s Silk Vestments
Kinevra bought these robes with Honor gained by doing Wintergrasp while she was leveling; as she does not have the requisite Classic-era PvP Title, she cannot truly Mog with these robes, but must equip them.
Knight-Captain of the 7th Legion
Mountainsage Hood, Mantle of the Champion, Knight-Captain’s Silk Tunic, 7th Legionnaire’s Cord, Warmongering Gladiator’s Gloves of Prowess, Sandswept Sandals, 7th Legionnaire’s Stave
Tirisgarde Field Marshal
Ceremonial Crown of Karabor, Vestia’s Pauldrons of Inner Grace, Field Marshal’s Silk Vestments, Light-Woven Slippers, Aluneth

Wrath of the Lich King
Hateful Gladiator’s Silk Amice, Savage Gladiator’s Silk Amice
Deadly Gladiator’s Silk Amice, Furious Gladiator’s Silk Amice, Relentless Gladiator’s Silk Amice, Wrathful Gladiator’s Silk Amice (with matching robes obtained from the same sources)
Moonfall Pilgrimage
Lost Crown of the Arcane, Hateful Gladiator’s Silk Amice, Hateful Gladiator’s Silk Raiment, Abandoned Zandalari Firecord (LFR), Treads of the Survivor, Aluneth (Balance of Power, first tint)
The final stage of the Balance of Power questline takes place at the Lunar Crucible in the Moon Guard stronghold.
Syrana Starweaver of the Moon Guard is wearing the Pauldrons of Revered Mortality and the Flowing Vestments of Ascent, from the Alliance version of Trial of the Crusader, modified with the sleeves from the Alliance version of the Vindictive Combatant’s Silk Tunic. Taking a cue from the shoulders worn by the Moonfall Defenders, which are from the Priest version of the Wrath PvP Hateful Gladiator’s set, I did my best to imitate her within the limitation of being Horde.

Cataclysmic Gladiator’s Silk Armor
Alodi’s Heir
Cataclysmic Gladiator’s Silk Armor with Brutal Gladiator’s Silk Cowl, Black Swashbuckler’s Shirt, and Ebonchill (upgraded, first tint)
When I finally figured out that this set is what Alodi and Archmage Karlain (in the Elite recolor) are wearing, then I had to get it. It needed a less complicated hat, though.

Okay, the Dragonblight pic made me laugh, because the wonders of optical illusion makes you look not that much smaller than Azshandra and her Consort. But as we all know, their actual size is something closer to about 20 feet tall.
I do really like Dreamscale II, with or without a headpiece, because it fits Silvermoon so well. (Well, so does the Scarlet Sunreaver set…)
Finding just the right spot to best relatively scale foreground and background can be quite the trick!
I think the High Elves who stayed Alliance must have been the ones to switch from using red in their livery to using blue, instead of Silvermoon switching, in a time of tragedy and reduced resources, from blue to red!
Oh crap, I actually wrote Az’s name instead of Alexstraza! Well, she is a legend in her own mind, so it kind of figures.
LOL!
As always, lovely and I spend so much time trying to guess some of the locations. I feel like I should print out some of these and fly around the world trying to see if I’m right about where they are!
Photo/selfie scavenger hunt, go! đŸ˜€
