Guest Post at Pretty Fly Draenei

Hey, I'm still alive, and I did a guest post for Draynee from Pretty Fly for a Draenei! Come on over and say hi! Be sure to check out all of Draynee's awesome posts about transmog and, of course, draenei ;).

I promise there are more posts to come! I've been doing a lot of transmogs with my shaman and a few other alts. I'm excited to show them to you!

Transmog with the August Celestials Tabard

One of the grindiest factions in Pandaria also has one of the best tabards: the August Celestials. A recent xmog I did with the tabard is one of my favorites:

Shoulders: Pauldrons of Surging Mana; Chest: Icy Scale Chestguard; Hands: Heroes' Earthshatter Handguards [Shaman only]; Waist: Necrogenic Belt; Legs: Black Dragonskin Breeches; Feet: Tsunami Boots; Duel-wielded Mace: Black Icicle. 

Cloth

For clothies, I know tabards can be hard to pair with robes,

but I found a match that looks pretty good (if I do say so myself). 

Shoulders: Lunar Mantle; Chest: Frozen Shadoweave Robe; Hands: Hands of the Light [I didn't realize until too late that these were Priest-only gloves from challenge-mode dungeons]; 

Waist: Sash of the Parlor; Weapon: Greatstaff of the Nexus.

Leather

This leather set might work best with Monk/Druid classes. For Rogues, the Tier 9 (Alliance-only) and Replica Rogue Dungeon 2 set look really good with the tabard. 

Shoulders: Hide of Chromaggus; Chest: Tunic of the Dark Hour; Hands: Replica Darkmantle Gloves; Waist: Eva's Strap; Legs: Trickster's Leggings; Boots: Charged Footwear; Weapon: Ghost Iron Staff.

Mail

This xmog set was something I was going to do if I still had an axe and a fist weapon :P. For Shamans, the Tier 7 10-man set looks really good with the tabard. 

Shoulders: Horrific Flesh Epaulets; Chest: Shroud of Rime; Hands: Mitts of Burning Hail; 

Waist: Naturalist's Preserving Cinch; Legs: Black Dragonskin Breeches; 

Feet: Dark Iron Chain Boots; Axe: The Decapitator; Fist Weapon: Fist of Fate. 

Plate

Oh man, Plate-wearers. They have several different options! Warriors, you can try the Tier 9 (Alliance-only) set. Death Knights can match with the Tier 11 Normal or Tier 13 Normal set. And, Paladins would look good with the Tier 11 Normal set. 

Shoulders: Pauldrons of Edward the Odd; Chest: Ornate Mithril Breastplate; Hands: Cobalt Gauntlets; Waist: Klaxxi Lash of the Doubter; Legs: Legguards of the Unseeing; Feet: Rock Furrow Boots; Weapon: Wrathful Gladiator's Slicer; Shield: Lost Pavise of the Blue Flight. 

Weapon Spotlight- Staff of Immaculate Recovery

Earlier this week we took a few family members through Black Temple for some transmog gear. The beautiful Staff of Immaculate Recovery dropped from Gurtogg Bloodboil and our lucky priest was able to snag it! I better start farming BT on my priest ;). This staff is 100 percent perfect with the Priest Tier 5 Raid Set, but I also got to thinking about other ways you could show it off...

Black, white and gold

Shoulders: Duskhallow Mantle; Chest: Runecloth Robe; 

Hands: Black Mageweave Gloves; Waist: Gossamer Belt.

White and gold

Head: Hood of the Avatar (Priest only); Shoulders: Swiftheal Mantle (Tailoring BoP); Chest: Vicious Embersilk Robe; Hands: Vicious Embersilk Gloves; Waist: Sash of Arcane Visions

I love these shoulders so much, but unfortunately they can only be used by tailors. An alternative are the Vicious Embersilk Shoulders. 

Transmog with the Lorewalkers Tabard, Part 2

Aaand I'm back! I hope everyone had a great holiday. 

There are several mail and plate armor sets that would look great with the Lorewalkers Tabard. Or, you can mix and match them. For a little while I had mixed and matched pieces of armor to match the tabard (I was improvising with what I had and didn't want to search after specific pieces :P). 

Shoulders: Harlan's Shoulders; Chest: Masterwork Breastplate; Hands: Masterwork Gauntlets; Waist: Tarren Mill Defender's Cinch; Legs: Erupting Volcanic Legguards; Feet: Grunt's Ankle Wraps; Axe: Doom's Edge; Fist weapon: Borean Smasher. 

After a while I polished off my transmog and ended up in a mix of the MoP Mail Agility PvP set and the Triumphant set. Both look great paired with Lorewalkers tabard. 

Contenders Dragonscale: 

Triumphant set with some extras: 

Shoulders: Coral-Barbed Shoulderpads; Axe: Crul'shorukh, Edge of Chaos; Fist weapon: Silithid Claw.

For plate, the possibilities are endless! Some sets that I thought matched great were the Conqueror's set, the Glorious set, the Immolation sets (both colors), and the Bloodfist set. There are many options. I personally love to mix and match pieces so I put together 2 sets seen below.

Red:

Shoulders: Spaulders of Manifold Eyes; Chest: Leonine Breastplate; Hands: Gauntlets of the Righteous Champion; Waist: Belt of the Sand Reaver; Legs: Leggings of the Ursa; Feet: Master Cannoneer Boots; 

2H Sword: Voldrethar, Dark Blade of Oblivion. 

Golden:

Shoulders: Spaulders of the Thalassian Savior; Chest, Gloves, Legs, Feet: from the Sunscale set; 

Waist: Glorious Belt; 2H Axe: Soul Cleaver.
