Moggin' with Tabards - Order of the Cloud Serpent Tabard (Leather)

For my next few "Moggin' with Tabards" posts I'll be focusing on Transmogging outfits around the Order of the Cloud Serpent Tabard. This tabard can be purchased for 10 gold from San Redscale once reaching exalted with the Order of the Cloud Serpent. (Interestingly, you may also notice that the flavor text on this tabard is a quote straight out of Star Wars.)

I love the colors on this particular tabard, it really is quite gorgeous. Unfortunately when it's paired up with any old gear it just doesn't work - at all. Paired up with some pieces of similar color though, oo la la - it can actually be shown off!

The gear shown below is all fairly easy to aquire as well, minus the shoulders which really rely on having a little bit of good luck. There are some other more easily obtainable shoulders that would look very nice with this mog though; I've listed them further down in this post.

Look like an NPC - Thassarian Transmog

I was walking out of the Inn in Stormwind today when something caught my eye. At first I thought an NPC was on the loose visiting the city. Thassarian himself, the first Death Knight to rejoin the Alliance, was standing right there by the mail box! Ok, well maybe not the REAL Thassarian, but boy was I fooled for a moment. Seriously, this guy was spot-on. Not only was his mog an exact replica of what you'll find Thassarian wearing in Acherus, but his hair and beard...and even his name was exactly the same! See for yourself on: Thassarian's Armory link.

(Click on any picture in this post to view a larger image.)
Most of the items used for this transmog were farmed out of Normal Trial of the Champion, although a couple of pieces come out of the Heroic version. Thassarian informed me that in order to gain all of the pieces early on he froze his exp at 80 and queued for Trail of the Champion via LFD repeatedly until he got everything he needed. The shoulders he obtained from a friend, but shoulders with the same look can also drop in ToC. It took him about 2-3 weeks total to put the set together. 

Items used in this Transmog & Source:

Wapach's Spaulders of Solidarity - Wotlk dungeon trash/raid drop
or (Alternative shoulders) Majestic Silversmith Shoulderplates - Eadric's Cache, Trail of the Champion (Heroic)  
Deathchill Cloak - Tailoring (420)
Breatplate of the Imperial Joust - Confessor's Cache/Eadric's Cache, Trail of the Champion (Normal)
Gauntlets of the Stouthearted Crusader - Eadric's Cache, Trial of the Champion (Normal)
Girdle of Arrogant Downfall - The Black Knight, Trail of the Champion (Normal)
or (Alternative belt) Soul-Sealed Belt - from rare spawn Vigdis the War Maiden, Howling Fjord
Legplates of Relentless Onslaught - Confessor's Cache/Eadric's Cache, Trail of the Champion (Normal)
Plated Greaves of Providence - Confessor's Cache, Trail of the Champion (Heroic)
Endbringer - The Black Stalker, Underbog (Heroic) (Thassarian can be found dual-wielding this sword in several different places in game, including: Western Plaguelands, aboard The Skybreaker in Icecrown and in ICC.)

I'd like to thank Thassarian for taking the time to chat with me about this lovely mog. The time and effort put into it totally paid off.

Mogolympics Entry - Wrestling

The fourth event of the Mogolympics was wrestling and the winners have been chosen! The wresting competition rules were: "We’re going to deviate from olympic wrestling and go to the sports entertainment aspect instead.  Using one of the “championship” belts, design your own Azerothian pro wrestler.  Think of the oversized belts, such as the Firemend Cinch seen here."

As in the previous three competitions, there was some really great entries and the commentary was very well-done. The results of the competition can be seen here: Mogolympics - Wrestling

My entry came in the top five, and was literally a sneeze away from the Bronze medal for this competition. This was my entry:
