The other day I posted a picture of my
mage looking somewhat similar to Shredder. He just ended up with that gear by chance, it was all from garrison quests. I thought he looked pretty cool with just two exceptions: his cloak was too short and his weapon was totally derpy.
So the other night I decided I had had enough of not looking 100% dapper and decided I would visit one of the tranmog NPCs and fix the situation. There was only one problem ... apparently I have been vendoring/disenchanting
every single piece of gear I replace. I had nothing to transmog. Nothing! Not a cloak, not a weapon, not a robe, not a hat ... nothing.
Fortunately there was an easy solution to this problem - there are a number of vendors that sell old PvP gear for honor. Oh, except I have no honor on my mage. Hm. Fortunately, I remembered stumbling upon some NPCs in Dalaran that sell old PvE gear. I ported to Dalaran, bought the cool looking stuff and then went to wowhead to see if there were some anywhere else. Sure enough, there are also a few in Orgrimmar!
The only problem was that they don't sell any good looking 2h weapons. The solution to that? I noticed a level 300 BoE staff in the Guild Bank that looked pretty sweet. For some reason I have the ability to withdraw 10 stacks a day, so ... uhh, yea. Anyway, here's the new and improved Piffle:
 |
New cloak, weapon, and robe. Cloaks MUST be long! |
 |
The robe is very similar to before, just has a little more orange / yellow in it |
 |
I felt like that complimented both the new cloak and weapon |
It wasn't until after I bought everything I wanted from the vendors that I realized I had spent seven
thousand gold! Haha, woops. I went through the same process (with the Orgimmar vendors, at least. Dalaran is harder to get to if you can't just port yourself there) with my Priest and Druid as well, being a little more thrifty this time. I probably spent around 10k total on all of them:
 |
The staff is actually what you get from salvage boxes! |
 |
Cape is probably the best looking one I have on any character! |
 |
The Chest and gloves are last season's PvP |
Not sure how crazy I am about the yellow / green scheme on my druid. But it's a fun change for now!
