Hey! Quick question…

Posted on July 31, 2013 by Cathedral

So I’m happy enough, puttering along and throwing outfits together and posting them on the Internet in the hopes that people are interested, but I thought it worth asking the question — what do you want to see around here?

Is there a race/class combination that needs more love on this site?
If you didn’t find what you were looking for here, what were you trying to find?
How can I make this site suck less?

Now I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to manage everything because, well, I’m easy distracted, but I’m always looking for more sources of inspiration. Since you bothered to show up, you get dibs.

So, yeah. If there’s something you want (even if it’s just, “Hey, what about a blue leather set that works on Tauren?”) or something that might possibly make the site better, speak up in the comments.

It’s free, it’s easy, and I’ll think you’re swell.

WoW Plate Transmog: Reforged Trollbane (Death Knight)

Posted on July 30, 2013 by Cathedral

Okay, note to self — Next time, use the female Troll for maximum irony.

Head: N/A
Shoulders:  Shoulderplates of the Deconstructor
Back: N/A
Chest:  Warrior’s Embrace
Hands:  Acherus Knight’s Gauntlets (Death Knights Only)
Waist:   Guardian’s Plate Belt
Legs:  Acherus Knight’s Legplates (Death Knights Only)
Feet:  Boots of the Funeral March

Main-Hand: Reforged Trollbane
Off-Hand: N/A

Here’s the full set on Wowhead

You know what, I’m not even going to bother screen capturing this set on a male toon. It’s… it’s a hot mess.

There isn’t a tabard in the world that could save it.

And yes, when I’m designing sets I’m using a female Blood Elf as a default, why do you ask?

WoW Leather Transmog - Mountainscale Leather - Male Night Elf

How had I not noticed the male Night Elf’s aquiline nose before now? That thing is fantastic.

Head: N/A
Shoulders: Heroes’ Dreamwalker Mantle (Druids Only)
Back: N/A
Chest: Raging Spirit Harness
Hands: Wild Draenish Gloves
Waist: Belt of Primal Majesty
Legs: Mountainscaler Leather Legguards
Feet: Wild Draenish Boots

Main-Hand: Arm Blade of Augelmir
Off-Hand: N/A

Here’s the full set on Wowhead

And here I was, hoping to take a break from the class-specific sets for a while. No such luck, those gorgeous and confusingly turquoise-glowing purple shoulders are Druid-specific.

The rest of it, on the other hand, is up for grabs. I’m looking at you, surprisingly cool Arm Blade of Augelmir.

I honest-to-god can’t look away. No word of a lie.

Okay, so we’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming very soon (you can likely expect a new outfit in the next day or so), but I had to share.

I was poking around Amazon.com, daydreaming about real-life ‘mogging (I think some cultures refer to it as “fashion”), when I stumbled onto this little horror.

World of Warcraft Blizzard Murloc Costume Zip Up Hoodie Hooded Sweartshirt

That’s an affiliate link (yeah, yeah, I know), but… don’t buy it. For the love of god, don’t buy it. Do you really need that unholy abomination in your life? It would be like walking into a creepy antiques shop in the first five minutes of a horror movie and buying the creepiest doll you can find from Christopher Lee. Why would you do that.

But I just can’t turn away. I mean, its eyes — its bright, burning eyes, they speak to me in some strange tongue I cannot understand. They speak of riches and power and the end of days and I know, in that moment, that all is lost.

There can be no safety. There can be no sleep.

Murloc Hoodie - a.k.a., the abomination that will haunt your dreams for weeks to come.

It can smell your fear.

Only whaaaaarblegarblegarble.

Plate Transmog: Phantom Armor (Paladin Only)

Posted on July 9, 2013 by Cathedral

Head: N/A
Shoulders:  Spaulders of the Emperor’s Rage
Back: N/A
Chest:  Phantom Armor
Hands:    Gauntlets of the Iron Tower
Waist:   Stormforged Belt
Legs: Legplates of Regal Reinforcement
Feet:  Impaling Treads

Main-Hand: Elegion, the Fanged Crescent
Off-Hand: Skyking Bulwark

Here’s the full set on Wowhead

I generally try to limit the number of pieces I use from each expansion, but for this outfit I bent a few rules. Anything to make Phantom Armor work, given that the rest of its in-game set is actually mail.

And yeah, this was meant to be available to all plate-wearing classes, but Mists of Pandaria loot rules mean warriors and death knights won’t be able to win Spaulders of the Emperor’s Rage. Unless you’ve got a secret healing off-spec, sorry guys. This one’s for Paladins only.
