So You Want to be a Necromancer...

Today's set is contributed by Emmberr of Wyrmrest Accord. This is a fetching Necromanceresque  set (could easily be used for cultist RP as well) that in its original incarnation is a Death Knight only variation as it makes use of the excellent looking Acherus Knight's Hood (we need more awesome looking cowl type hats Blizzard!).  However, other items can be swapped in that keep with the original look and feel of the costume.




Head
Acherus Knight's Hood: Plate, part of the starting gear for Death Knights

Shoulder
Stoneform Shoulders: Plate, Drop from Kirtonos the Herald in Scholomance

Chest
Robes of Arugal:  Cloth, Drop from Baron Ashbury in Shadowfang Keep regular
Necropile Robes Cloth, (Sleeveless) Boss Drop Scholomance

Shirt:
Stylish Black Shirt: Purchaseable

Gloves:
Netherweave Gloves:  Cloth, Tailoring BOE
Silver-Thread Gloves: Cloth, level 23 random world drop

Shoes:
Black Mageweave Boots: Tailoring BOE


An alternate cloth-wearing-class friendly set in keeping with the spirit of the original



Head:
Nightsky Cowl: Cloth, BOE World Drop

Shoulders:
Black Mageweave Shoulders:  Cloth, Tailoring BOE

Chest (For a slightly different look):
Black velvet Robe: BOE World Drop
Silver-Thread Robe: (sleeveless) BOE World Drop

Belt:
Silver-Thread Sash: BOE World Drop.

The gloves, shirt, and boots are kept the same as the orignal set.

There are a variety of weapons and offhand combinations that work with this costume idea, from scythe style weapons such as the War Scythe or the Frostscythe of Lord Ahune to the more subtle combinations of a dagger (bonus points if one of the enchants with the dripping blood effect is applied ;) ) and a tome for the off hand.  It's a fun set for those of darker intent...
