Transmogs are a very popular feature in World of Warcraft, perfect for players who play on retail or Cataclysm-era servers. This feature allows each character to have more unique and creative customization options. In the minds of players, collecting different types of gear for transmog has become very important, even more than performing missions or raids in the game!

What I need to remind you here is that transmog was added in Cataclysm expansion, so you don’t have to start exploring from scratch. You can use some of the equipment or weapons you have already acquired to transmog when expansion is released.

Similarly, in WOW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 Rise of the Zandalari, which will be released on July 30 as the second phase of the entire expansion, you can also use transmog. Any items you’ve previously acquired through quests, crafting, or even drops will appear in your transmog directory.

Transmog sets available to each character are determined by their classes. For example, casters can only use cloth transmogs, while Paladins or Warriors can use plate and mail gear. This guide will detail the best transmogs you can use in the game, so you can be ready before Phase 2 arrives!

Circle Of Flame

• Location: Dropped by Lord Incendium Ambassador Flamelash in Blackrock Depths

This is a mid-level item, but the drop rate for this item is only a measly 2%, which makes it one of the most sought-after items in the game. It’s not without a replacement though, you can get a Crown of Desolation from Ragnaros in Molten Core raid to replace it. However, both items are very difficult to obtain and require some effort on your part.

How To Find Ambassador Flamelash?

Before explaining how to find the boss that drops Circle of Flame, I need to remind you that there is a level scaling function in Retail WoW, so if you want to get this item, your dungeon must be scaled to match your character. The same level, and you also need to team up with others to complete this exploration.

The following steps are for Cataclysm because there is no level scaling, so you can complete them independently with a high-level character.

Go to Blackrock Depths. This is one of many instances in the infamous Blackrock Mountain, and is usually the first place players visit, as it is a level 40-45 dungeon. Turn left at the entrance, go through the gate, and enter the door on the right that leads directly to West Garrison.

Then find Grim Guzzler. This is the hottest tavern in Azeroth. Go through the back door, stay on the left, go up the first staircase, and turn right.

Defeat Flamelash. Ambassador is alone in a large room filled with lava, but during the battle, several small fire elementals will join the battle and help him. He probably won’t drop Circle of Flame on the first try, so be prepared to do this a few times.

If you have run this dungeon before and have the keys to get into West Garrison, you can complete the steps above. If you haven’t been to Blackrock Depths before, you can still go this route, but you’ll need a high-level character or a powerful class.

Black Embersilk Gown

• Location: Get the recipe from the sewing trainer

This item is one of the new decorative clothing added in Cataclysm, and you need to reach level 500 in the Tailoring skill to craft it. In addition, you need to use 8 bolts of Embersilk to craft it, so if you are currently using another class, you can use WOW Cataclysm Classic Gold to obtain it at Auction House or commission someone else to make it.

But in fact, making Black Embersilk Gown is not that easy. Although this item is just for decoration, it requires a lot of expensive and rare materials, including Volatile Fire dropped by specific high-level enemies in Mount Hyjal, and Chaos Orbs dropped by the final boss of heroic-level dungeons, which are very difficult to obtain.

It is also necessary to remind you that LFG function in Cataclysm will only show the option for Heroics when your total gear score is 329 or above, so you should always pay attention to your gear situation. Also, Chaos Orbs don’t drop in regular dungeons, you need to look for higher-level dungeons.

Robe Of The Malefic

• Location: In the hands of Keeper of Lost Artifacts Tydormu in Scale of Sands

Every caster in the current game wants this Robe Of The Malefic. Also known as Hood of The Malefic, it has a pair of long horns and a set of giant bat wings. The only way to get this set is to enter Mount Hyjal raid and compete with Archimonde when he drops Forgotten Conqueror’s Chestguard. Once you win the dice, you can trade it with Tydormu.

How To Find Tydormu?

The vendors who trade these items are usually well hidden, and so is Tydormu. Before trading, you need to prepare the tokens it needs in case the trade fails.

You can go to Caverns Of Time. Fly through the entrance to Sanctuary. It’s the second Sanctuary to the right from where the dragon dropped in Cataclysm expansion. 

Join Mount Hyjal Raid. You must be level 65 or above to join the raid and have Classic WoW installed.  And speak to Tydormu. Find him wandering the “foyer” of Mount Hyjal raid. This raid has multiple portals leading to different stages, making it one of the most complex and difficult 40-player raids in WoW.

These are the best transmogs you can choose from in WoW Cataclysm Classic. Hopefully, you can use them to your advantage in WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 Rise of the Zandalari! Have fun exploring!
