Sunwalkers!

Unread post by Jadvya »

So I'm planning to reroll my tauren druid as a paladin. There's only one problem: I've got no idea what she could wear! Unfortunately I'm on a Mac and therefore have no access to the Model Viewer.

So does anyone have cool ideas for a Sunwalker set? Something either gold-ish or brown/blue/red/gold to match the kodo, just Tauren-y (fur and feathers and such) stuff! Anyone?

Good timing, I've been wanting to make a set. Unfortunately I do not have WMV either, but at least I have mogit.
Sunwalkers have it rough - there's very little plate that looks even remotely like a tauren would wear it, even less a sun-worshiping one. Here's what I've come up with -

It's all based off that helm, which is the only helm out of all the ones on Mogit that looked tauren-esque.
Pieces:
Helm- Vanguard Headdress (drop)
Shoulders- Harp Shell Pauldrons (Throne of Tides normal)
Chest- Chestguard of Cognitive Dissonance (Vashj'ir quest)
Hands- Hanguards of the Severed Starfish (Vashj'ir quest)
Bracers- Bindings of the Construct (Drop)
Belt- Waistguard of New Days (drop)
Pants- Legguards of Noon (HoO reg drop)
Boots- Eaglecrest Warboots (Heroic Blood Furnace)
Weapon- Banner Slicer (or almost anything else)

I've been playing around with the new wowhead xmog feature (paladin here: http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-sets?filter=cl=2), and I found a few pally sets that seem to suit the sunwalker feel:

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=384#modelviewer:6+1 minus the helmet seems to have the colours I'd think are right for sunwalkers...

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=753#modelviewer:6+1 is a little darker, but looks amazing on a female tauren (again I'd ditch the helmet)

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=420#modelviewer:6+1

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=584#modelviewer:6+1 I like this one a lot because of the kilt - it seems to fit the tribal look of the tauren better.

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=762#modelviewer:6+1 this is the set my pally (draenei) will be wearing. It is amazing in every single way. <3 And damn if it doesn't look great on a tauren too! :D

http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=118 ... viewer:6+1 this set goes in a very different direction, very subdued and earthy.. depending on your take on the sunwalkers, it might suit your style. :)

Thank you guys for the suggestions! I think the Sunwell set is my favorite out of all of them. I'll try playing around with Mogit when I have the time; it looks neat.
