Wicked Crimson: Black/Red Spiked Mail - Horde
Posted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 12:35 am
So this is one of my favorite transmog sets thus far. It's obnoxiously bright, but the colors somehow work on my orc, I think. I'm sure others could come up with somewhat better pieces here & there, and the melee weapon, Halberd of Smiting, is no longer in-game--Lantresor's Warblade or Flame Wrath (polearm) or Damnation or Abracadaver (staff) all work in its place. For the gun, if you prefer a bow (as I do), Heart Striker is an excellent choice (it hasn't dropped for me yet!). If you want to do this as Alliance, you will need to go tabard-less or find another suitable tabard.
This set looks great on many hunters, and should also be fully attainable for shamans. It looks good with Red Proto-Drake, Red Drake, Black Drake, Crimson Deathcharger, War Raptor, War Wolf, and more; and for pets, the red hyena, Terrorpene and armored wolf all look awesome.
Shoulders: Drakesfire Epaulets
Cloak: Blood Knight War Cloak
Chest: Scarlet Chestpiece
Tabard: Tabard of the Dragonmaw Clan
Gloves: Gauntlets of Divinity (Paler Alternate Here)
Belt: Scarlet Belt
Legs: Ebonhold Leggings - Thanks Wassa for the name of these! (I had an identical but no-longer-available piece)
Boots: Scarlet Boots
Polearms: Flame Wrath - Lantresor's Warblade (there are Horde, Alliance & lookalike versions) - Halberd of Smiting (no longer available)
Staves: Abracadaver - Damnation
Ranged: Dragonbreath Hand Cannon - Heartstriker
I'm not usually a fan of the color red, but I had the scarlet set, and the onyx-embedded legguards, and when I threw the Scarlet set on for a joke and then swapped out those legs, the idea took shape. I'm not an enormous fan of the boots, but there doesn't seem to be a better black or red choice that fits the hues already in the set! If anyone can come up with better boots let me know

Bringing out the black:


I'm super happy to finally have a transmog set that actually matches this mount--and when I'm using my Karoma (Shiver), the legs of the horse bring the wolf together with the set.
