Any leather hoods you could recommend that would go well with this set instead of the full-face helm?

Comment by Kikilicious

Okay, so I'm not a real fan of the helmet at all. I have OCD, and one of the things that "gets me" (if that's the right wording for it) is when colors don't match. It drives me CRAZY.

Anyway, moving on.

I, disliking the Lightdrinker Hood, decided to go through all the leather helmets that are currently in the game to find a good match. Here's what I've found.

The first and best matching item I found was the Nightslayer Cover. This item is literally the perfect helmet for this set. The Nightslayer set shares the exact same colors as the Lightdrinker set, just different models. If you're looking for the perfect color match, and don't mind larger helmets, this is the one for you.

The next item I found that matches pretty well is the Swashbuckler's Eyepatch. While it' s slightly off color, this eye patch pulls in the dark-ish undertones of red the armor itself has. I think it's okay, but it's not my personal fave.

Another minimalist option I came across is theImposing Bandana (or anything that shares the same model/color). I like this one because I like minimal or non-clunky head wear. The red shades match almost perfectly. However, this model kind of leaves the character's neck exposed, which looks kinda weird with this armor. If I had managed to find a shirt that covers more of the neck, I'd probably like this option more. Either way, it's up to you.

Next up, we have the Sunroc Mask. This pulls on the dark-ish shades of the armor. While it's not a great match, it's a more minimal option that has more coverage on the neck. I'd personally prefer a red one, but since there are currently no -solid- red leather masks like this in game (at the moment of writing this), the black is the only way to go with these.

My last suggestion has to be the Cursed Vision of Sargeras. It's dark and minimal, which I like. I will probably use this or Nightslayer Cover if I do wind up using this set (not sure if I will, considering I just finished the xmog set I have and love) but I want it nonetheless), but since I love minimal helmets (and the fact it took 17 runs to get this STUPID ASS BLINDFOLD, which, according to my friend, totals to 5 months of waiting), I'm partial to this. But, like I said, color is key, and this is slightly off color.

Overall, there's some decent options, in my opinions. I'll look into daggers and stuff too, if people like this helmet comment. I mean, I'll do swords and axes too, but I do dual daggers, so....

Anyway, I really hope this helped anyone who's looking for a good helmet for this set!

And here's a comparison link, just so you can pick and choose on your own.

Looks like they stuck a Garona's Helmet of Triumph on top of a set of a Nightslayer Armor.

Comment by Galthariel

where do I get this set?

Comment by 537090

Wait, so they fixed the shoulders and messed the head? Blizz, i'm disappoint.

Comment by Tenjen

The intended daggers for this set are

Lightdrinker Dagger and Lightdrinker Shiv

They also drop from salvage.

Comment by Razenthron

The Lightdrinker Armor is now available for all Rogue's. There are three weapons which are part of the set; Lightdrinker Sword, Lightdrinker Shiv and Lightdrinker Dagger.

You can loot the whole set and weapons from Big Crate of Salvage if you've got a Salvage Yard level 3 built in your garrison.

It has the same looks as shown when you choose the Rogue class at "create a new character" screen.

There's a set for each class which you can find here.

Comment by Chaos5061

Currently building this set on my Rouge because I love the colors. Do agree with others that the helmet looks out of place and have chosen to get the Swashbuckler's Eyepatch. What I would like are any recommendations for a cloak to go with this set?

Comment by Setsoru727

I've seen many suggestions for a helm replacement, but no one has mentioned http://www.wowhead.com/item=35367. In my opinion it's a fantastic 'minimalist' head gear with complimentary colors.

Comment by Corchlan

Any thoughts as to a tabard that goes well? I'm currently wearing Tabard of the Achiever, and it's not a terrible match, but I expect there's something better out there.

Comment by CountBobula

Aside from slightly mismatched colors, the helm actually fits pretty well with Mantle of Darkness.

Comment by ConAir

Like most of the Rogues out there, I personally don't care for the helm with this Xmog set. For the longest time, I wore Facemask of Unrepentant Banditry until I picked up the Alloy-Inlaid Cap which I think goes very well with the rest of the set.

Comment by Spifty

I can't wait for the Heavydrinker Armor Set to come out. Now that is right up my alley.

Comment by Ametrine

That helm does not match AT ALL. Whoever chose to use that model for the set should be slapped in the face.

Comment by Rellston

is this set available for rogues only? want the waistband for my monk!

Comment by Ikarugamesh

The helm is way off. I prefer using Bloody Bandanna or SI:7 Special Issue Facemask instead.

Comment by Nelora

I havn't seen this mentioned yet but, you can also obtain the green version of this set by boosting your rogue to level 90. I used my free boost, when I bought WoD, on my rogue and was given this set, along with a green dagger and sword.

Night-Vision Mechshades&bonus=525
I use these. They match great

Comment by 164284

As everyone has mentioned... the helm for this set is absolutely terrible. Not even close for a color match.

I think I have solved this with Opportunist's Leather Helm. If you are honored with the Cenarion Expedition, you can buy this perfect helm for just 19 gold and change. Even has some bright red along the side to match the rest of the set.

In my opinion... this is the best look I have found so far.

Comment by voltrain

Another good option, if you use swords, is Shortblade of the Uncrowned which is sold by Kelsey Steelspark in the Rogue Order Hall.

Comment by Walroz

I got these shoulders (and whole set) from simply doing a lvl 110 class trial rogue. I did the class trial to get instant acces to the mounts connected to the specific race (f.ex. i got the hawkstrider and turtle mounts from simply making a class trial pandarian and blood elf race, hearthing and buying mounts with the gold i sent over to the class trial)
I wondered if the outfit would stay after I got my mounts and deleted the class trial character and they sure did stay! For some reason they didnt appear immediately in my mogtab but I discovered them a few days later by accident.
- I will check up on a different class trial character to see if the class trial armor sets do in fact end up in your transmog tab!
- Updated
So the armor sets from class trials is only available for the specific class itself and is not shared on armor value alone meaning my mage did not get the class trial armor mog from the warlock class trial character but my warlock did. If you are planning to level a character from level 1 and want to make sure to have these transmogs for the class you could create the level 1 and then create a class trial of same class to stock the armor mog (the armor mogs from these class trial chars are for some reason only available for mogging from lvl 90 and beyond)
I am pretty sure you do not receive these to your class if you dont make a class trial character of same class as the one you already have nor am sure if any of this is intended to work the way it does. I hurried reserving armor sets for future wanted classes if they do decide to remove or change this "transmog transfer".

If anyone bumps into more detail or has more knowledge on this subject please add your experiences

Comment by makujah

So they remade Nightslayer set complete with a remodeled shoulders but they didn't give it a matching nightslayer-like helm? What? Why?

Comment by Nulgar

While this Transmog Set was first introduced for the WoD Salvage Yard, it has since been used for the BfA pre-expansion event (the Ambuscade items) but the easiest way to unlock this set is to create a Class Trial Rogue character.
Simply log into that character once, open the Adventurer's Footlocker to also unlock the weapon appearances. You can then delete this character.
If you're using addons at all, I suggest going to a realm where you don't have characters yet, and disable all addons after creating the character, before logging in.
You can do this for all classes, obviously, for the sets mentioned in arabus80's comment.
