What are the rules?

What are the "Rules" I use when creating a transmog set? This blog is a little different from others around, and below I will outline how.

1. First, this isn't a "How to Get" transmog guide. I don't include information on how to get certain pieces. The purpose of this blog is to find just the right pieces of gear to make a cohesive and impressive set for your Hunter. The hard work (and fun!) is up to you!

2. With that being said, I do place restrictions on my creativity. Even though it's mail armor, perhaps it is unavailable to a Hunter, such as Shaman token gear or vanilla WoW pvp rewards that are only available if you achieved the original feat of strength. Only items available to the majority of Hunters will be used in sets.

3. However, I will use Wowhead links for the pieces to make it easier for you to track down the pieces needed for a set.

4. I play a male Human Hunter, and the majority of sets will be based on the Human model. Wowhead has a link to change the race and gender that you view transmog sets on, so I won't bother showing what it looks like on all of the races (to save time and effort on my part).

5. The colors have to match! Most of the fun I have creating transmog sets is the scouring of databases looking for exactly the right shade of dark grey to match the pieces I want. WoW uses about 10 different versions of "black" that just don't look right when you slap them all together. The challenge is in the hunt!

6. The styles have to match, too. If the armor piece we are basing a set around looks like it is made with scales or chain links, the rest of it better not look like fur!

Most of my sets start out as a single piece of gear, be it a weapon, helm, cloak, shoulders, tabard, or even boots! Once I am inspired, I use the above guidelines to began creating an attractive set of armor!
