Over the last six months, I’ve created a number of sets around the WoW classic robes. This challenge provided the much-needed motivation to complete the project I had started over two years ago. At times, it proved quite challenging because it required more than piecing a bunch of mutually coloured pieces together. However, to stay true to the concept, I tried to make the sets as monochromatic as possible while keeping to a certain theme. This was quite difficult with current in-game limitations since we can’t just dye a piece of armour like Diablo III.
The most difficult colour ended up being the last which was ironic since my indigo kit (created early on) didn’t get used. In the end, I was pretty happy with them, even with an indigo/violet combo. I even managed to tie first place for blue which was a nice surprise, winning a fully grown Grubbs for my trouble.
It’s hard not to feel sexy wearing one of these and with transmogrification, they’ve become more than just a dress for special occasions. I had lots of fun designing kits around this collection of showstoppers so if you’d like to see more, just pick a dress below.
Robes of the Triumvirate / Robes of Insight
This robe can drop from Lord Kri, Vem or Princess Yauj in AQ 40
It also shares the same colour as the Robes of Insight which is a very rare world drop.
Vestments of the Shifting Sands
Drops from Kurinnaxx in AQ 20
Robes of the Guardian Saint
Drops from Fankriss the Unyielding in AQ 40
Robes of the Battleguard
Drops from Battleguard Sartura in AQ40
Mooncloth Robe
This Tailoring recipe is available from a vendor in the Dire Maul library – Shen’dralar Provisioner.
Alanna’s Embrace
Drops off Ras Frostwhisper in Scholomance (no longer available)
Elegant Robes
World BOE Drop
Not sure about the drop rate but seems a lot lower than the Robes of Insight.
Robes of the Exalted
Drops off Lord Aurius Rivendare in Undead Stratholme
So there you have it, the full collection of Princess Leia dresses and Mooncloth (plus lookalike) options.
Do you have a favourite? Let me know below.
Robes of the Guardian saint was my most ever expensive DKP purchase and I was the first person on my server to get it. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I put it on. My Bloodelf Priest is currently using it for transmogrification.
Think I actually prefer the robes of the exalted though. Might have to go and farm them.
Love those gowns, all so pretty. I have the Robes of the Guardian Saint (the turquoise one) on my priesty for transmog and I just LOVE the look. Sexy, but classy too.
More pics!!!
Beautiful dresses! Makes me want to get one for my blood elf mage.
Hope that Alanna’s Embrace won’t disappear with the revamp to Scholo, might have to start farming it for my Mage sooner rather than later just in case.
Love these dresses, thanks for featuring them. :) I actually never knew there were recolors of the mooncloth robe!
