Egyptian hunter (more likely mage)

Unread post by Hesantia »

I was trying to get some pieces together for my hunter to look kinda egyptian, since I have always loved Egypt and the lore IRL, and the thought came to me after watching a video containing Uldum-shots. The problem is that I can't find any gear that looks even remotely egyptian. I have almost given up that idea, and instead gave it to my mage. The problem is that there are still very few gear pieces that scream egypt or ancient. I want it to be obvious what the set is about.
I have some pieces that I think looks pretty good, and have set together one set (without feet or gloves, that's not really important since it's kinda easy to find fitting stuff)

I would really like some feedback, and if you actually can think of a mail set that would be great!

(I should probably say that I have not checked the gear to see if she can actually use it, class-wise ;) more to show the "feel" I want)

I'd go for the knowledge pursuit shoulders to match better, but otherwise not too shabby

Yeah, I thought so too, but the thing is that those shoulders have red details, so with that dress it becomes very noticable...

Have you tried the Elegant Robes + Shoulderpads of Knowledge's Pursuit? Might look good with some of the hats.
I dunno why, but that's the robe that seems most egyptian to me.

Of course you can like stuff even though it's my char ;) Just throwing ideas out, and as I said I want it to look egyptian even to others, so feedback is really appreciated ^^

I wonder, are there any other color variations of that hat? Beak's Torn Feedbag, that is. That's the most "Egyptian" looking hat to me, it'd be neat if there were more colors.

http://www.wowhead.com/item=65889 this is the only one I found through wowheads "same model as" that has another colour. This one is darker/greyish with a green gem.
