Inspiration
The idea behind this outfit came to me when I was browsing through item models of capes for a different outfit. I came across the cloak in this set, and was immediately taken by the bright purple and green coloring, as well as being reminded of the equally purple and green Illidari Trophy tabard from TBC. I felt the call to create an outfit that would do these items proud!

Challenges
Honestly, the only challenge here was to find accompanying items that wouldn't drown out a players eyes with too much neon green and purple. I had to use gear that would allow the colors of the tabard and cloak be the main focus, but still match the set.

Bringing it Together
I decided to start out with finding a weapon to match. The bow I decided on was a clear winner the moment I saw it. It has the same shades of purple and green, and has a nice crystallized look. That made it easy to match up to the heroic legion dungeon mail set.

Helm: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set. I enjoy the exposed head, and the green jewel at the neck matches the bow.
Shoulders: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set.
Chest: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set. The sleeves of this piece have more of the matching green crystals tied around your characters arms, almost like ammunition.
Shirt: None. I tried a few purple shirts, but found they clashed with the blue/purple of the armor set, so I left the shirt off.
Tabard: Purple Trophy Tabard of the Illidari. Beautiful.
Cloak: Thalassian Wildercloak. Again, beautiful. I'm so happy that there is a matching cloak/tabard out in the game like these.
Bracers: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set.
Gloves: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set.
Belt: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set. I tried a few different belts, some with crystals too. They looked OK with the tabard and bow, but they definitely didn't match the rest of the armor.
Legs: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set.
Boots: Legion Heroic Dungeon Set.
Weapon: Crystalline Branch of the Brackenspore. Holy cow this bow is cool. Same green crystals as the armor set, and some nice dark purple wrappings on the limbs that match the style of the armor set, and offer a different shade of purple to contrast the tabard and cloak.
That's it fans! Let me know what you think, or if you have any suggestions or ideas in the comments below!
