Legolene's Fashion Dilemma

$

Hey fly peeps!  I'm on vacation this week, so please enjoy this guest post from Legolene! 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hey everyone this is Legolene from WoW Adventurer and I need some advice with my latest transmog.  As a Draenei who is relatively new to the whole transmogrification game, I find myself at a crossroads as to what do do with my fire mages latest outfit.  I currently have this red and gold theme going on, solely inspired by the shoulders Mantle of False Virtue which was a drop from Archbishop Benedictus in Hour of Twilight.  Since I decided I really liked the shoulders, and the red theme was somehow fitting with my mage's main spec which is fire, I've been sporting the Red Linen Robe as my main outfit.

But it's time for a change, and this is where I need the readers of Pretty Fly for a Draenei to help me out.

Do I switch to the Replica Magisters Robes and leave it at that? I really love this robe, with the gold accents, but isn't it a little, I dunno, two seasons ago?

Or do I go with this fab new blue and gold theme, and either keep the red and gold shoulders, or start looking for some new blue and gold ones?

Can anyone suggest cloth shoulders that would go well with this robe, the Mistscape Robe? I could really use some advice here.

Thanks Pretty Fly Draenei for allowing me to ask your readers for help with my fashion dilemma.

Fly Draenei Friday - Satsuri's Picks

Hey guys!  I'm still on vacation, so my fly pal Satsuri put together an awesome FDF for us!  Make sure and check out her blog for some awesome mog stuff.  You can also read about when we spotted each other in Stormwind in this Fly Draenei Friday:) Thanks so much Satsuri!!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



It wouldn't be Friday without a Fly Draenei Friday post! I'm Satsuri from over at Satsuri's Style where I mainly post about transmogrification. Draynee was kind enough to let me post on FDF!



I see a lot of different transmogs on my server and can't seem to keep my finger off my screenshot key ;). Here are a few fly draenei that have caught my eye:


Asperations has a really pretty plate set that reminds me of a sunset. She used the Avenger's Battlegear Set from AQ (sorry, Paladin only) paired with a sweet axe, Gladiator's Decapitator, and a guild tabard.
 
Gemíní is another pretty fly paladin in the Valorous Redemption set and the rare Tabard of the Lightbringer.


Nazzryth has done one of my favorite things: he transmogged the Replica Shado-Pan Helm! And how cool is it that he put it together with the Vengeful Gladiator's priest set? I never thought of doing that. Now, go get exalted with the Shado-Pan and get your helm today!

Rainÿ's transmog reminds me of the sweet set Draynee made for her hunter recently. Rainÿ makes black mail look pretty cool on a shaman! She mogged the gloves, belt, pants, and boots from the Slayer's Mail set seen here. The Skeletal Shoulders and Double Link Tunic complete the look.

Last but not least, a leather set! I am excited to see draenei running around in leather now. Jubilee looks good in the recolored Tier 1 rogue set, Tabard of the Shattered Sun, and the Orca-Hunter's Harpoon.

I'm Back + Mog Companion!

Hey everyone!  It's been awhile, but I'm finally back from vacation!  Sorry I didn't have more stuff to post while I was gone, I was hoping for some more guest posts.  I loved having Legolene and Satsuri's posts featured here, and it would be super awesome to have guest posts in the future just for funsies :D  If any of you would ever like to write one, just let me know!  Any draenei-related subject matter accepted, not just transmog.

While I was gone, I was able to log into WoW occasionally with my dinky little laptop.  I had the graphics slider set all the way to Low and it was still overheating!  I can't believe I ever raided 25's on that thing :O  The up-side was that when I got home and logged in I was in love all over again with how beautiful the game looks on a halfway decent computer!

So, I don't have a mog post today, but I want to let you all know about another little project I've been working on for like, ever.  I've been messing around with it for almost a year, and I keep shying away from talking about it because it's just not "done".  But here, I'm gonna do it!!!!  Introducing...
www.wowmogcompanion.com
I got the idea for this site one day while wondering what all the colors of hoods were in game.  I started keeping pictures on my computer, and thought I'd grow it into a visual database for transmog.  It's sort of like MogIt, but without the dressing room.  I actually used MogIt to take all my pictures, so thanks to those folks ;)

The basic concept is a quick way to find all of the models of a certain piece of gear quickly.  Say you want to see all of the plate dresses, they're all there together!  It's also great if you're wearing a flared-sleeve top and want to see what color gloves come in a short model, to keep the sleeve showing.
So, that's the gist of it!  I'm still working on some of the categories, including adding sets, but I think it's time for my Mog Companion to start companion-ing... or something like that, lol!  Check it out and let me know what you think, I'd really appreciate any feedback :D

Fly Draenei Friday - T-T-T-Transmoggg!!

Whew, it feels like I haven't put together a FDF in FOR-EVER!! It's good to be back ;)

This week I have a T-T-T-Transmoggg from Daniel.  That was the subject of his e-mail, I just had to use it as the title!  His death knight Athenastraza is rocking a few of my favorite DK pieces, the Tier 10 25-man shoulders and legs, along with a few DK 'starting zone' pieces and a fantastic pair of blue boots.

Shoulders - Sanctified Scourgelord Shoulderplates
Chest - Saronite War Plate
Hands - Bloodbane's Gauntlets of Command
Waist - The Plaguebringer's Girdle
Legs - Sanctified Scourgelord Legplates
Feet - Rock Furrow Boots
Axe - Vicious Gladiator's Decapitator

The Tier 10 death knight set has always been my favorite.  It was pretty epic for me at the time to be raiding Icecrown Citadel and be building a set that looked just like Arthas' gear.  My DK, Lideyviah, has the shoulders and legs mogged also.  A sad moment for me was losing out on what I will always swear were matching blue boots for the set.  I can't remember if they dropped from the heroic loot-ship, or heroic Sindragosa, but both of those loot drops now match the purple set.  The night they dropped I had to pass them to the other DK since the boots I had were better.  When trying to convince my guild leader to do the heroic fight again so I could have a shot at the boots he said "I'm not doing that damn fight on heroic again just so you can stand around Dal and look pretty!"  Well, this was before transmog so....  I can't find any record of the boots ever being blue, so I'm just hoping my hopes were wrong, but that sad story still sticks with me :/

ANYWAY!  Thanks Daniel for sending in your awesome mog and sending us all down memory lane XD  Remember, if you'd like to be featured in a FDF of your own, send me some pics!

And now for some super fly peeps from Proudmoore!


Keelien made me do a double-take, she looks just like Samaramon!  It's an awesome mog, be sure and check out Sam's post.

Olyne looks fierce in her Dragonstalker Armer with Terror Pit Girdle. The Gladiator's Heavy Crossbow is a great weapon choice!

Lenalee's mog is a nice mix of old and new gear.  Peerless Armor and Ceremonial Leather Loincloth with Swamp Shoulders and Grower's Gloves.
Aashiyana is hot in her fiery plate mog. Conqueror's Epaulets, Girdle and Greaves, Glorious Breastplate, Hyperion Gauntlets,  and Legplates of Blazing Light.

Happy happy joy joy, it's Friday! Hey, this is my 100th post!  Can you believe it, 100 posts about fly draenei?!  How awesome is that? LOL! I've gotten quite a few fabulous mogs from you guys lately, and got a little behind on posting, so this week's FDF is all reader mogs! Thanks so much for sending them in, you guys rock :D

First up is reader Dan, whose fly draenei is rocking some invisiboots with her mog.  Dan said he was pretty excited when he found these 'boots', because so many of them make hooves look weird.  I agree!  I really hate those stumpy short boots there seems to be a million of.  If you're looking for some invisiboots for you next mog, check out my Mog Companion, you'll find a category for them under each armor type!

Head - Steamworker's Goggles
Shoulders - Crusader's Pauldrons
Chest - Phantom Armor 
Wrist - N/A (something small)
Hands - Protector Gauntlets
Waist - Lambent Scale Girdle 
Legs - Mail Combat Leggings
Feet - Tsunami Boots



Nicole sent me two awesome mogs to share!  This is her mage Tely in a pretty unique take on the Cindercloth set. She paired the Cindercloth Vest and Pants with the Mantle of False Virtue and Archivist's Gloves from the HoT instances, and Kavan's Foresaken Treads.

She also sent her hunter Felinora in some of my favorite mail pieces, the Ebonhold set with a perfectly coordinate pet!

Next up is Cherokee, who left this fantastic picture in the comments of the Submit Your Fly Draenei page.  She is fierce in the chest, legs and gloves from the Ornate set, Burnished Girdle and the Theramore Tabard.


Rounding out today's awesome FDF is Nora, who also left her super fly draenei Barlafumble on that page (hint, hint, it's a great way to send me your pics!).  This mog is one of those cool shaman/hunter mashups, some hunter tier 7 pieces with those badass shaman Tier 5 recolor shoulders!  Also, another Invisiboots sighting ;)

Shoulders: Coral-Barbed Shoulderpads
Chest: Vest of Mounting Assault 
Gloves: Valorous Cryptstalker Handguards
Belt: Cinch of the World Shaman
Legs: Valorous Cryptstalker Legguards
Boots: Tsunami Boots
Bow: Golden Bow of Quel'Thalas






Thanks again everyone for sending in your pics, and for reading Pretty Fly for a Draenei!  I've been working a lot on my mog companion site lately, but I hope to get some new mogs posted soon!

Valorous Golden Paladin Transmog

After weeks and weeks and weeks of making Lightning Steel Ingots, I finally got my Lionheart Executioner, Reborn made!  With gearing being so tedious this expansion, I haven't really focused on any of my characters' iLevel in months.  This weapon is actually the highest level item I have on any of my 5 90's, lol!  So, I thought it only fitting that I make a mog for such an epic sword.  This mog is not that mog, but something else I put together while browsing MogIt :D  I liked it so much, I actually went farming for the gear.  Draynee hasn't really had a new mog since I set her up with that fantastic pink and purple look right after mogging came out!

I was looking through chest-pieces and something about the Phantom Armor was speaking to me.  After staring at for awhile, I noticed the small aqua accents on the back.  They reminded me of the Paladin tier 7 set, and an outfit was born!


Here's the look with an awesome mace I'd love to have, but I don't think I can 2-man heroic 25 ICC yet ;) 







Mace - Cryptmaker


One of these days I'll have to slug it out in PVP long enough to get this belt!  I know paladins have been asking to carry around their Librams on their waist forever, so this belt being a nod to that is awesome.

Mini Mog Post - Blood DK Set

While going through the plate chestpieces for the Mog Companion site, I was introduced to the beauty of the Sunwell plate items.  I'd never really noticed how neat they look, and this piece instantly made me think of the death knight Heroic Tier 10 set.  Since all the pieces are available as look-alike pieces, any plate class could wear this look, but it seems like the perfect Blood DK outfit to me :) 

The pieces from this outfit are a little more difficult to get than what I normally like to feature.  The shoulders, waist and boots are from heroic 25-man ICC, and the legs are from Firelands.  If your guild's not into running old raids, you can always look for a cross-realm group on OpenRaid, or through Twitterland Raiding.

Shoulders - Boneguard Commander's Pauldrons

Chest - Warharness of Reckless Fury

Hands - Borderland Paingrips

Waist - Coldwraith Links

Legs - Lavaworm Legplates

Feet - Grinning Skull Greatboots

Sword - Apolyon, the Soul-Render

Hey hey it's Fri-daaayyy :D This week we have a super fun mail mog.  Is it a shaman? A hunter?  It's Saz!  I featured Saz's priest a few months ago on FDF.  This time it's her hunter Metres and her pet April.  Maybe next time she'll send me her Shaman, since that is her specialty ;)

"Being the shaman fanatic that I am, I wanted my hunter's mog to kind of have that shaman feel. What I ended up with was an odd shaman/steampunk sort of blend. Needless to say, I'm absolutely in love!"

I'm in love too!  The chestpiece, one of my favorite Cata items, looks awesome with the Shaman Tier 6 recolor pieces, and the gun and goggles are perfection!

Head - Truesight Ice Blinders

Shoulders - The Wavemender's Mantle

Chest - Chestguard of Rapid Promotion

Hands - Corpse Scarab Handguards

Waist - Belt of the Stargazer

Legs - Infection Resistant Legguards

Gun - Rifle of the Platinum Guard

The kilt is a look-alike of the tier 6 dress, but is just the legs, and are from Wrath, pretty cool!  Thanks again Saz, love having your fly draenei here :D



Here's some fly gals from around Proudmoore!


Blacksucubus' outfit is super fly with her Mists accent pieces! Earthslag Shoulders, Saltstone Surcoat, Deathbone Gauntlets, Patroller's Girdle of Endless Spring, Sentinel's Plate Legguards and Stompers of Vigorus Stomping.

Damalia looks so pretty in her green mog! Hibernal Robe, Feralfen Amice, Councillor's Sash, Black Mageweave Gloves and Waterfall Wristwraps.  Reminds me of my mage's green mog ;)

Aielwyn is rocking the Gianstalker Armor. Whoo, those short look hot on a draenei!
I didn't catch this shammy's name, but this black and red outfit is awesome! Ironhide Pauldrons, Breastplate and Legguards, with Ebonhold Gaunlets, Girdle, and Boots.

Just a quick FDF today because I want to get caught up on all the awesome mogs I've been getting in my inbox :D

I was pretty excited to get this e-mail, not only did it have super fly draenei, but the sender has a super cool name, and they are a new mog-blogger!  Umlaut Paradots is the fashionisto behind Mog's Addiction.  He's got a huge collection of mogs he's done, his friend's mogs, and a fun blog sharing his adventures.  Head on over and check it out!

Here's Umlaut's warrior Amerisia in the beautiful Lofty set with the blacksmith-only Swiftsteel Shoulders and Merciless Gladiator's Greatsword.  Umlaut's page about Amerisia has some more great shots of this look!

Amerisia again, rocking the purple Judgement recolor set with Hailstorm and Aldori Legacy Defender.

Thanks for sending in your pics Umlaut!

Fly Draenei Friday - Kamalia's Secret

This week's Fly Draenei is from the superb Taureness Kamalia from Kamalia et Alia!  Kamalia had a great plan to get some quest rewards for transmog that are Alliance-only, she went under-cover as a draenei on her priestess!  Now, I'm not sure what grumpy old Garrosh would think of her plan, but as I am pro-draenei, not so much pro-Alliance, I'm all for it ;)

Her outfit here is a modification of an outfit she did for the Amateur Azerothian's last transmog competition (PS, I miss that guy).  This version is more accessible for low-level characters, so your draenei can be fly no matter what her level!

Shoulders: Mantle of Invocation
Chest: Journeyman's Vest
Shirt: Captain Sander's Shirt
Waist: Captain Sanders' Sash
Legs: Phoenix Pants
Hands: Phoenix Gloves
Feet: Sorcerer Slippers (cloth invisiboots!)

Thanks for sending in your lovely mog Kam!


Here's a few fly Proudmoore gals!


Tokahontas' red and gold mog looks super fly with her Lionheart Executioner! Tarnished Fanatic's Pauldrons and Warboots, Tyrant's Chestpiece and Legplates, Thorium Belt.

Tempést has a great mix of Pandaria and old world gear in her mog. Firebird's Helmet, Cuirass and Spaulders, Binder's Chain of Unending Summer, Grunt's Legguards, and Burnished Gloves.
I saw Stéphanie (left) when I was leveling my priest, and 
we're almost twins!  Her mog is definitely more put together 
than mine ;)  Stéphanie is wearing the Lunar Mantle,

A few months ago I posted my first Fly Guy Friday, and I'm so excited to have enough fly guys to post another one!

Once again we're starting off with a super fly mog by @Khalior!  His Thunder King inspired mog is... striking B-)  He says it was all about making a set with that chest piece without going for the Sunwell glowing ball shoulders.  Check out his tumbler post for another awesome shot of his outfit.

Head - Heroes’ Earthshatter Faceguard
Shoulder - Vicious Gladiator’s Linked Spaulders
Chest - Garment of Serence Shores
Hands - Vicious Gladiator’s Linked Gauntlets
Belt - Skyshatter Girdle
Pants - Brutal Gladiator’s Linked Leggings
Boots - Treads of Ardent Antagonism
Off-Hand - Pulse Baton
Main Hand - Wu-Lai, Bladed Fan of the Consorts

That fist weapon is so sick!  Thanks for sharing another great mog Khalior!




Up next is Zidux, from Zidux's Dress Up.  Zidux is a dwarf lover at heart, but obviously every one needs a fly draenei in their life ;)  Make sure and check out his mog site, it's his one year anniversary!  This is his death knight in a super cool mix of DK pieces and the Deathbone recolor set.

Head - Relentless Gladiator's Dreadplate Helm
Shoulders - Warchief's Mantle
Chest - Breastplate of Retribution
Hands - Bloodbane's Gauntlets of Command
Legs - Legguards of the Resolute Defender
Feet - Tempered Titansteel Treads
Polearm - Spear of Xuen

Thanks for sending your fly guy in Zid!





Our last guy that you, my wonderful readers sent in is Khemiä's friend Onclecham.  Khemiä had her own FDF awhile ago, and was inspired by the first FGF to send me in her super fly friend's mog!  Onclecham is sporting the red/orange Amani Mail set with Cracklebite Links.  That belt is really cool!  Khem's outfit is also super fly, The Wavemender's Mantle with the Lord's Mail set is beautiful :D

Thanks again Khemiä, and everyone else who stops by and sends in such amazing things for me to share!!  You all rock and I love you for supporting my draenei addiction ;)






Here's a few fly guys I found lurking around Proudmoore:


Leucippus is looking regal in his Conqueror's Plate set with the Conqueror's Helmet and Epaulets, and Boulderfist Belt.

Mildelicious' druid look-alike mog is super cool! Moon-Crown Antlers, Lunar-Claw Pauldrons, Starry Robes of the Crescent and Grips of the Lunar Eclipse.

Jaarodne shows manly man do wear pink!  Helm, shoulders, legs and boots from the Avenger's Battlegear, and Flameguard Gauntlets.

This fly guy is straight out of the Burning Crusade!  Justicar Armor with the Tabard of the Protector, which was a special reward from the Opening of the Dark Portal event.

Fly Draenei Around the Web

Why hello there Draenei enthusiasts!  I hope you've been enjoying the steady stream of Fly Draenei Fridays :)  I've been working on a few mogs of my own, but I really want to wear them, and haven't completed any of them yet!  One outfit I'm putting together for my mage includes gloves from a Molten Front vendor.  Kids these days think the Golden Lotus are a sucky grind, they have nothing on these Hyjal peeps from the last expansion, lol!  At 13 tokens a day, I needed 150 tokens to unlock the first stage of these dailies, and at 30 tokens a day, 150 more to I think unlock the vendor guy.  That second stage is really only 5 days, but ya know when you can't bring yourself to do the dailies every day, it kinda drags out...

So, I've been seeing some super fly mogs on other blogs and thought I'd share them in case you haven't seen them!
From Soco at Vault of Light's post Just the Two of Us.  Korla's green and red combo is superb, and even thought she's a night elf, Telnari is looking pretty fly too!

Mataoka at Sugar & Blood's For the Alliance! mog. So hawt :D

Amerisia, Champion of Freezing Her Buns Off from Umlaut Paradots at Mog's Addiction.  Loving this mog, the Vanguard chest with Tier 9 shoulders is something I've though about, but didn't want to spend the gold on at the AH ;)

Ireenia's Harmony Set from Efffy at Awaiting the Muse.  I love hoods on draenei monks, and this one is fantastic!

Luxypie at Sunshine, Luxypie and Rainbows started blogging a few months ago.  This is her priest Veluxia, and OMG!, if you remember my Ultimate Dream Mog, you know why I am gaga-bonkers in love with hers!

So many super fly and inspiring draenei around the web!  If you've seen any fly bloggers I should be checking out, let me know!

Fly Draenei Friday - Ryi's Fly Too!

Before we dive on in to this week's FDF, I want to let you guys know about a transmog site that's new to me.  Honeypants over at Mogoholic posted about it earlier this week, and I think it's about to make putting together my FDF's a whole lot easier ;)  This site is Xmog.cc Transmog Viewer.  It's like the armory, but instead of listing your equipped gear, it lists your mogged gear!  Whew, I've been doing a lot of tabbing between the armory, wowhead, and my blog posts, and now I can just copy the links from there *evil grin*!  Thanks for sharing that Honeypants!

This weeks mogs are from Ryi at Doomhammer (EU).  She said her bf bullied her into sending in some pics, but I bet it was more gentle prodding, and I'm glad she did!

This is Ryi's Dragonstalker Recolor set, I call it her 'you might think I'm a hunter, but I'll lava burst you in the face!' set.  That might be too long a name.  I'm little jealous she was able to get her hands on that belt though, my shaman who wants to wear it is not on the same server, or faction, as my leatherworker who can make it :/  Also, it's BOP, sadface!

Shoulders - Dragon-Quake Shoulderguards

Chest - Ebon Netherscale Breastplate

Gloves - Warstrike Gauntlets

Belt - Ebon Netherscale Belt

Legs - Scaled Greaves of the Marksman

Feet - Black Ogre Kickers



Another of Ryi's sets.  This one is very pretty, that Tier 14 chest looks amazing with the Tier 10 pieces!  Defiler's Mail Pauldrons top of this set that goes perfectly with her little dino pet!

Thanks so much for sending in your mogs Ryi, and thanks for encouraging her, Ryi's bf :D


As always, now for some fly Proudmoore peeps!


Haruuka is so pretty in pink and purple! Hallowed Crown, Mana-Sphere Shoulderguards,
Vestments of the Shifting Sands, Energis Armwraps, Cord of Sanctification and Staff of Infinite Mysteries.

Ahli's set is simple yet elegant. Knight's Mail with Knight's Pauldrons, and Precious' Ribbon for a little peek of pink.

Amaravati is rocking the farmer look!  Her's is pretty similar to my farmer mog, but those blue shoulders are even better! Arcane Cover, Skein Woven Mantle, Blue Overalls, Yellow Lumberjack Shirt, Black Mageweave Gloves and Mistscape Boots.

I was totally confused when I first saw Teniitha.  I was on my pally at the time, and I though at first someone used the look-alike elixir on me, but wait, I'm not wearing a helm.  Then I realized I wasn't even wearing this outfit and it was just a super fly twinsie!  Purple Judgement helm, shoulder, gloves, belt and hands with Revenant chest and legs.

Well, I really thought I was going to post about my awesome mog I have planned for Drayney with Widow's Clutches.  I unlocked the vendor who sells them in Molten Front, but /sigh... I need 125 more tokens before he will actually sell anything to me!  For normal people, this should only take 5 days, but I have a horrible time doing old content dailies every day.  I took me about a year and a half to get my Netherdrake mounts, and I still have about 3/4 of the Argent Tournament stuff to get :/  Oh wells, instead here's a post about what my dear mage has been wearing in the mean time!
I was wearing my green mog for a really long time to go with that cool dragon staff.  Then, I got a wand as a weapon and kept that mog with dual star wands!  I really like the model of the Brightcloth Robe, but after awhile, I wasn't really feeling the shoulders I was wearing.  I needed something a little more-magey.  After a little MogIt browsing, I decided on this purple outfit.  Pretty similar to the green one, but these shoulders say "Hey!  I'm a mage!" ;)


Helm - Incanter's Cowl

Shoulders - Mantle of the Tempest

Chest - Elder's Robe

Gloves - Gloves of Penitence

Waist - Cord of Cacophonous Cawing

(Above: Waist - High Councillor's Sash, Dagger - Edge of Oppression, Off-Hand - Regal Star)








After I got the sha-touched sword from LFR, I went back to my green mog for a few minutes, but I really didn't like how the greens only almost matched with the sword, lol.  In preparation for my upcoming mog, I picked up the Embersilk Robes off the AH, and then found this awesome helm while cleaning out my bank.  So, I thought, why not a mix a little of the green with red?!








Off-Hand - Watcher's Star

I'm wearing Black Mageweave Leggings with both outfits, but any of the skimpy leggings should work.







So, there's a brief look at what Drayney has been wearing lately.  Each of the looks went through several iterations before I settled on these two, but I'll spare you the details ;)  I have some MogIt mock-ups I did to go with the LFR sha-touched sword I'll try and get posted this week.  By then, I hopefully will have done the dailies to get my damned pink gloves!

I've been getting so many great mogs from you guys lately!  I want to make sure I get everyone's posted before it's been forever since they sent them, so a reader roundup is in order :D

First up is Chakorii of Shadowsong (US).  Chakorri's mog reminds the very first reader mog I ever got!  I love the screenie she sent in, this mount is great for showing off your mog while getting around.

Helm - Fiery Beholder Eye 
Shoulders - Vengeful Gladiator's Mail Spaulders
Chest - Energized Chestplate
Hands - Scarlet Gauntlets
Belt - Ornate Girdle
Legs - Firemane Leggings 
Feet - Brigade Boots
Fist Weapon - Calamity's Grasp 
Shield - Ward of the Red Widow




Next we have Figura, who enjoys playing supermodel in her mog photoshoots ;)  The shoulders and waist she's chosen her are perfect accents to this robe!  This whole set can be crafted with the Moonshroud Robe and Gloves if you happen to have a tailor.

Shoulder - Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Mooncloth Mantle
Chest - Heigan's Putrid Vestments
Hands - Gloves of the Fallen Wizard
Waist - Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Cord of Meditation

Boxer of Kil'jaeden is Cooling Off in an Icy Ensemble.  We all know how challenging it is to find blue mail, but Boxer was up to the challenge and said they had fun putting this set together!

Shoulder: Relentless Gladiators Linked Spaulders
Chest: Icy Scale Chestguard
Waist: Icy Scale Belt
Hands: Spiritwalker Gauntlets
Legs: Shifting Camouflage Pants

Shoulders - Mantle of the Sea Wolf
Chest - Sundered Chestpiece
Gloves - Sundered Gauntlets
Waist - Sundered Waistband
Legs - Sundered Legguards
Boots - Sundered Footwraps
Bow - Brutal Gladiator's Longbow





Necron has a nice unique take on the red leggings mog going on.  I'm guessing by her screenie being taken at the Darkmoon Faire carousel that this is a leveling set, it would be a great mog for your heirlooms!

Head - Red Mageweave Headband
Shoulders - Sea Song Epaulettes
Chest - Corsair's Overshirt
Waist - Captain Sanders' Sash
Hands - I'm not sure what gloves she's used, but any of these short gloves in black could work
Legs - Cindercloth Pants
Feet - Maybe Invisiboots?! ;)




Last, but def not least, is Kolenzo, who loves to mix and match her mage tier pieces with priest tier.  I don't see a lot of people in that helm, looks great!

Helm - Lifespark Visage
Shoulders - Conqueror's Kirin Tor Shoulderpads
Chest - Robes of Faltered Light
Scryer's Tabard
Gloves - Handwraps of Flowing Thought
Waist - Nigh-Invulnerability Belt

That badass staff she has is Dragonwrath, which unfortunately you can't mog because it's a legendary, but it still looks awesome!


Thanks so much for sending all your mogs in!  I love seeing what all the Draenei enthusiasts out there are wearing :D  If you want to submit your mog, here's how you can.

Blizzard Store Transmog Helms - Cloth Mogs

$

Unless perhaps you've been under a rock, on vacation, or not playing WoW, you've surely heard the hullabaloo over the new items at the Blizzard Store.  Formerly a place to buy neato pets and mounts, they've now added 3 Cosmetic Armor Pieces you can spend your real-life gold on, and mog to your hearts' content.  I have mixed feelings about these helms, they're not really my style, and I think the price point is a little high.  I know everyone's got quite an opinion on these things, and I won't say either way if I support them being sold for money or not.  What I do support 100%, however, is the people who buy these and want to wear them.

There's a rumor going around Twitter that some poor chap got kicked from LFR, and the reason in people's boxes was that he was wearing one of these store helms.  To make it worse, the 'rumor' (I can't speak to it's truth as I wasn't there) was started by some pretty high-profile podcasters who were making fun of this person.  This blog is not usually a place where I voice strong opinions, but without a doubt, my opinion of this situation is that it is asinine and unacceptable.

I've got a lot more to say about this, but I will digress and get to the pretty pictures.  In short, transmog is as much a form of self-expression as what class you play, and NO-ONE (not even you, Mr. Worgen DK in purple judgement) deserves to be publicly made fun of for what they choose to mog into.  So rock on, kid who got kicked from LFR, and comfort yourself in the thought that the gear you wanted wasn't going to drop from that run anyways, and you were better off with another group :)

So ANYWAYS, here's some cloth mogs I put together for the 3 helms.  If I'm feeling funky-fresh, I might do some of the other armors too!


This first helm you may have seen with the blue skull face effect.  I had no idea that was just an animation until I saw Mogoholic's post about the helm.  It's a pretty neat looking crown in still form!

Head - Crown of Eternal Winter

Shoulders - Valorous Shoulderpads of Sanctification (Priest)

Chest - Mooncloth Robe

Hands - San'layn Ritualist Gloves

Waist - Mindfire Waistband








This helm kinda scares me.  Those red eyes in the black, it's like what you'd see if you said 'Bloody Draenei' in front of a mirror in dark 12 times.  BOO! /shudders







This helm is serious about its horns.  Please be careful not to put an eye out if you're mogging this one.  Unless, that's your intention... and the target is an orc... named Garrosh...

Head - Jewel of the Firelord

Shoulders - Firehawk Mantle (Mage)

Chest - Robe of the Waking Nightmare

Tabard of the Achiever

Hands - Sanctified Bloodmage Gloves

Waist - Embereye Belt

Umlauts over at Mog's Addiction did a pretty awesome plate mog for this one, so check that out too!


P.S. You can scope out the helms for yourself on the Blizzard Store.


Fly Draenei Friday - Super Soco

Happy Friday my fellow Draenei Enthusiasts!  I've got to say, you guys rock!  My inbox is brimming with super fly mogs you've sent me!  This week we've got another mog from Soco at Vault of Light.  She's always rocking an awesome mog, and I must admit, I'd love to see her MogIt wishlist ;)  You can check out Soco's previous FDF here.

I managed to get these shoulders this week, ones I've wanted for a really long time. I have the orange ones from normal Firelands for a really long time so I was super stoked to finally get these beauties during an achievement run!

Head - Heroes' Circlet of Faith
Shoulders - Mantle of Closed Doors
Chest - Queen Azshara's Dressing Gown
Hands - Ebonweave Gloves
Waist - Belt of False Dignity
Staff - Chelley's Staff of Dark Mending

Congrats on your shoulders, they really are beautiful!  My poor mage longs after either pair, but she would need to actually go into Firelands to get them ;)

Soco's dress is from Archeology, and it is BOA if you're into flying around and digging up your mog items.  For you mages out there, it is the same model as the Tier 7 chest - Valorous Frostfire Robe.

Thanks Soco, you look lovely as always :D  Here's some fly gals from Proudmoore to look at too!


Raileena's got one of my favorite plate items on in her mog! The Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Clasp of Cruelty is so cool!  I used the Malevolent version in my Paladin's latest mog. Casque of Flame, Pauldrons of Edward the Odd, Templar chest, gloves and legs, and Sapphiron's Scale Boots.

Kajia's set is a nice mix of golden mail from various sets.  Crown of DestructionBattleforge Shoulderguards, Masterwork Breastplate, Engraved Gauntlets, Ornate Girdle, Radiant Leggings, and Masterwork Boots.   

Haziell has a nice twist on one of my favorite DK sets.  Sanctified Scourgelord's Shoulders, chest, gloves and legs, with Warbelt of Sealed Pods and Stonestep Boots.Rhonii has a nice simple cloth mog. Black MageweaveShoulders, Vest and Leggings, Bracers of Displaced Air, Black Mageweave Gloves, Motherseed Cord, and Storm-Sing Sandals.

MogIt Armory

A few weeks ago I got a DM on Twitter from Aelo, the fabulously talented co-creator of MogIt!  After attempting to help them out, I poked a little as to what was going on.  Turns out they were working on a new plugin for MogIt - MogIt Armory!  With this plugin, you can see what over 11,000 different players are wearing, pulled straight from their Armory profiles.  In addition to random players, Aelo has featured what we Mog bloggers are wearing!  Mog bloggers' pics have a 'Featured' banner in the corner, and when you click on it, it gives you a link to our blogs.

There's Draynee :D  To see the bloggers, you simply load up the plugin, pick an armor class, and then choose a race.  A lot of peeps are under female Blood Elves, but if you poke around, say male Dwarves, you can catch Zidux, and Zazzy is under female Goblin!


If you pick 'All', it will show you all the transmogs on your character's race.

Seeing what a sampling of people are wearing is pretty neat!  I've only really poked around the plate, and there sure is a lot of purple judgement and revenant sets :P  The only downside is that if the person has a guild tabard on, it shows your guild tabard, but since mine is super fly, that is ok, lol!
*Update - Under Catalogue - Show Filters there is an option to show or hide tabards and shirts.  Also, you can filter by class there!
This is a really great look, love the sword!

 Like this one too!

You can download MogIt_Armory from Curse, and if you're on Twitter, make sure and give Aelo some love for the best add-on ever ;)


Fly Draenei Friday - I want my FDF!

Howdy draenei enthusiasts! Man, I've got a lot going on lately!  I've really been wanting to post more, but too much stuff in my brain.  If you haven't heard (possibly because I didn't announce it), I'm going to Blizzcon this year!!  I was fortunate enough to go to the last one on the first day at the very last minute, thanks to an awesome friend.  This year we've got our own tickets and plenty of advance notice ;)  So, crazy me thinks I ought to go as Draynee!  I've been spending a lot time dinking around with the outfit, and perhaps I shouldn't have attempted something as complicated as judgement shoulders for my first cosplay... I've had a few mis-starts, but I think I'm going to be able to make it work!  So, that's one of the multitudes of things I've been trying to do at once, hopefully I'll get a post put together about it soon.

In the meantime, Umlaut emailed me his latest super fly mog last week, and was hoping to debut it to you guys before posting it on his blog.  Well, last Friday my rl guild dinged level 5, so I didn't get a FDF put together (in case that makes no sense, it was my 5th wedding anniversary!).  But, better late than never, right?  Here's Amerisia's 'Lofty' new mog, you can check out more shots of it over at Mogsaddiction!











Thanks for sending her in Umlaut, and thanks for your patience ;)  Here's some more awesome mogs from my inbox!

Hamadi says he's having loads of fun being a all shiney as a warrior in paladin gear (Lightforge Armor).  He's also taking advantage of being one of the only classes that can wield polearms and staves and has mogged his polearm into Key to the Planes.

Chakorii was featured in my last Reader Roundup FDF, and wrote in to say he got a TON of whispers and comments afterwards.  How cool is that?!  Here's his newest mog, and a beautiful screenshot.  I love the weather in Valley of the Four Winds, it really makes up for the lack of weather in the rest of the world.  Anyhow, Chakorri said this set was inspired by his raid team's resto druid (and guild "mom").  It looks great!
Helm - Firebird's Headpiece

Shoulders - Crafted Dreadful Gladiator's Mail Spaulders

Chest - Fel Iron Chain Tunic

Gloves - Firebird's Gloves

Belt - Belt of the Gladiator

Legs - Legwraps of the Raging Elements

Mace - Tihan, Scepter of the Sleeping Emperor

Shield - Cataclysmic Gladiator's Shield Wall


This is Mythrii in a nice red and gold number!  Those shoulders look really great with this set, and of course, the Crown of Flame goes with everything ;)











And to round out what is apparently Fly Shaman Friday is Maria.  She's always had a fondness for these shoulders and said it was fun to try and match a set to them!



Belt - Stormwrap

Boots - Tsunami Boots (Invisi-boots)

Woo!  Thanks everyone for sending in your mogs, I love getting to post and share them :D

Alt Appreciation - Death Knight Week

Laeleiweyn over at World of Lae has started an Alt Appreciation series, and this week is Death Knight Week!  What a fun idea!  Since it's all about showing your alt's some love, I'm going to veer off the Draenei path for a moment and show some appreciation for my former main, now a much-neglected alt.

Lideyviah was the second character I made when I started playing WoW.  My first toon was a hunter that I leveled up by following my husband around, lol.  At the time he played a Death Knight, and he's pretty cool, so I wanted one too.  I leveled her up all on my own, and that's when I really got hooked on the game.  She was my main for a very long time.  I raided with her, did every achievement possible, and hit exalted with as many reps as I could.  Lid was actually my first 90 in Pandaria, but I wasn't really feeling playing melee anymore, and I haven't really touched her since.  I've thought about transferring her over to a draenei, but I don't think I ever really could.  She's pretty special to me, and even if I don't play her, I'm content with her staying just as she is.  I visit her every once in a while and have warm fuzzy feelings ;)

Lid and my hubby's DK Deyledis in Wrath

Goofing around in a Laid Back Raid

 
Here's a Lid-inspired mog!  This is one of my favorite swords in the game, I loved dual-wielding these back in the old days ;)




Waist - Cobalt Belt








For even more Death-Knight love, check out my other Lid-esque mog in purple and my blood DK set.  And yes, I have a serious love for tier 10, lol!
