Sunday on the Promenade 181: Renowned Expeditioners

Kamalia continues to slowly advance in Reputation and Renown in the Dragon Isles. She recently reached Renown 14 with the Dragonscale Expedition and unlocked the Renowned Expeditioner’s sets for everyone. This handsome brown and green coloration is my favorite version of this armor style — though I am rather partial to the turquoise and silver quest versions, too. Additionally, Kamalia’s efforts to gain friendship with Sabellian have succeeded enough to allow her Mage friends to acquire the Sabellian’s Battlegear set. Although a Cloth-wearer must purchase and learn the Sabellian’s Battlegear set, once it has been learned by that character, its pieces will show up in the Appearances collections of characters of other armor classes, as well!

Renowned Expeditioner’s Cloth


Renowned Expeditioner’s Cloth Armor with Vital Headband, Imperial Lotus Cloak, and Drakewatcher’s Beacon
Hood models have gotten a lot better since Classic. I still don’t like them.

Renowned Expeditioner’s Leather


Renowned Expeditioner’s Leather Armor with Headdress of the Sleeper, Renowned Expeditioner’s Cloak, and Wildfury Greatstaff
The set hat isn’t bad… it just seems better suited to a Rogue or a Monk than a Druid.

Renowned Expeditioner’s Mail


Renowned Expeditioner’s Mail Armor with Emerald Winglord’s Coif, Renowned Expeditioner’s Armored Shawl, Expedition Dissection Knife, and Hoursteel Barrier
Although I kind of like the concept of a visor that has been pushed up on the set hat, somehow I’d still rather just choose another hat.

Renowned Expeditioner’s Plate


Renowned Expeditioner’s Plate Armor with Obsidian Drakonid Helmet, Emerald Shroud of Loyalty, and Hammer of Ten Thunders
Keija spent just enough time in the Dragon Isles to collect 750 Dragon Isles Supplies to get this kit. I found Fury Warrior rather fun to play in the process and might level her all the way to 70 sometime later in the expansion.
This ensemble also looks rather hilariously awesome with the LFR Helmet of the Last Mogu.

Sable Sorceress




Sabellian’s Battlegear Cloth Armor with Jewel of the Firelord and Shadow Wing Focus Staff
Kamalia’s efforts to gain friendship with Sabellian have succeeded enough to allow her Mage friends to acquire the Sabellian’s Battlegear set. Sadly, Baron Sablemane in Outland hasn’t been updated to Sabellian’s Dragonflight Visage form model. Being something of a Mog nerd, I recognized this ensemble (minus the unique shoulders, of course) as a recolor of the Elite Cataclysmic Gladiator’s Silk Armor worn by Archmage Karlain in Legion Dalaran.

This series of posts began because I set myself a goal to document new Transmogrification outfits in a more timely fashion. As soon as I create a new outfit, I write it up in a draft post. As the weekend approaches, I start working on taking fashion screenshots, processing them, and updating “Things my [Class] Wears” posts. On Sunday — though not every Sunday — I publish the collection of my recent efforts. Then I begin the next “Sunday on the Promenade” draft post.

Occasionally, I have ideas for themed Transmogrification collections that take several months to completely assemble. Thus, some of these outfits might get re-posted at a later date as part of such a themed Transmogrification collection.
