Join the Orgrimmar's Finest!
Hey.
So I've been here for over a year and still haven't posted a new thread. After seeing a player standing in Orgrimmar, looking exactly like a grunt, I decided to try out for myself. It's not very hard to do, but some greens may be hard to get. To do this you'll need to be able to wear leather or plate and use an axe. Although the axe isn't necessary, you'll want it to get your suit perfect.
I hope that a similar guide hasn't been posted here yet and that it meets your quality standards.
The Gear
Shoulders
Big Bad Pauldron's / Cabalist Spaulders
Chest
Grunt's Harness* / Sentinel Breastplate / Warden's Wraps
Legs
Warden's Woolies / Sentinel Trousers
Feet
Warden's Footpads / Sentinel Boots
Gloves
Warden's Gloves / Sentinel Gloves
Waist
Warden's Waistband / Sentinel Waistband
Weapon
Bullova
* It doesn't look exactly (hard to notice the difference though) like the Warden and the Sentinel one, but it's easy to get.
Where do these items drop?
Big Bad Pauldron's = Chief Ukorz Sandscalp in Zul'Farrak
Cabalist Spaulders = World drop in 44 - 48 zones. (Hinterlands, Tanaris, Searing Gorge and more.)
Grunt's Harness = Sold by Kiro in Orgrimmar and Sura Wildmane in Thunder Bluff
Sentinel Items = Easiest place to farm these would be Scarlet Monastery/Uldaman. But they're a world drop in zones such as: Dustwallow March, Badlands, Stranglethorn Vale, Alterac Mountains, Arathi Highlands, The Hinterlands and the Swamp of Sorrows.
Some rare mobs seem to drop this item, and they are:Molok the Crusher,
Zalas Witherbark, Ironeye the Invincible, 7:XT, Dart, Burgle Eye, Ripscale, The Rot.
Warden Items = Drops in Zul'Farrak, Razorfen Downs and Maraudon. They're a world drop in the following zones: Feralas, Dustwallow March, Desolace and Tanaris.
Bullova = Sold by Weapon/Axe vendors in cities and towns all around the game.
Getting the green items may be a pain in your bottom, but the results can be fun.
After gathering all these items you will eventually look like this:
I still haven't gotten all the items yet, but I'm getting close. Don't forget to check the auction house, that'll be your best chance of getting these!
