This Armor is not worth getting blah blah blah blah bla....

Like c'mon! This way you could say. "Don't play for month, get a job and E-Bay a full T6"

Where people lost the "Fun" part of this game?! It's not a bout the freakin' gear. This is soooo totaly great looking armor and involves a lot of Old-School ?? bosses and encounters, it's damn worth getting it. Group with your friends, the old-school instances are simply cool to do, those dark places, rock walls, so much better than those new stupid 1h instances, beside these instances 'least have a Lore. Without all the fancy lights or what ever. I'm gonna upgrade to this, becouse the damn D1 Mask... it just doesn't fit, this has the cool blue strip 'round the face hole. D1 lacks it, it's just dark gray and doesn't match D1 at all :/

Darkmantle is a very nice middle ground between your Tier 0 and your Tier 1 set - hence the moniker Tier 0.5

I would love to see some 59 rogues in this...

add in a Duskbat Drape and 2 Felstrikers (it would take quite a bit of planning)

you've got +8 stealth, incredible fall damage reduction, and a chance to proc guaranteed critical hits. throw in +15 stealth from MoD, +5 stealth from another enchant on your cloak... people aren't going to be able to see you until you're literally on top of them, and you can drop off a friggin' cliff to get to them. Once you attack you're critting them like mad... and you have chances to proc +35 energy. do want.

While waiting for WOTLK to come out, I did this entire questline on my blood elf rogue (i know i know, sacrilege..). It took a lot of time, money, and aggravation.

~35 gandling runs for hat.
~20 drakk runs for chest.

I was surprised at how fun the upgrade bosses side of things was. My favorite parts were the two undead bosses in Stratholme Live (Jarien and Sothos) and the final boss of the questline, Lord Valthalak -- the one I actually required a 2nd person to do. It's actually interesting to see bosses you've never seen before after all this time, and see loot that only they drop.

I bind this set for my 'walking around Dalaran' set and get a TON of whispers about it.

I roll with the full 8-piece set, Windshear Cape (from high marshal whirlaxis, which i spent about 3 straight days doing silithus mats to get as another trophy piece to go along with the Darkmantle set), Eskhandar's Collar, Piccolo of the Flaming Fire, and for weapons: Argent Avenger and Skullforge Reaver. Probably the most appropriate 'rare' weapons to rock with this are Teebu's Blazing Longsword and Felstriker, neither of which I have.

I don't RP or anything but it's nice to set yourself apart and look a bit different than everybody else out there.

Of all the transitions form DS-1 to DS-2 (my opinion, you can downrateif you wish) this and the shamans received the more beautiful of them all, very aesthetically pleasing and it even matches the set's name. Also makes quite the statement walking around in main cities.

This is the most sexy outfit for a rogue. Just because it is so damn rare to see someone that have it

Just wondering, i threw out my work-in-progress Darkmantle set from my bank for space and im not obviously gonna need them but can you restart the questline somehow to get these again? I imagine if you switch factions you could do the opposite factions questline for it.

This is a pro set.
I have full 8/8 Darkmantle, but wear only 4 for the +35 Energy regain.
It procs like crazy, and as a Mutilate rogue, that proc is usually an extra burst of bloody goodness.

This is my armory: http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Draka&cn=Beraxx

Its DEFINATELY worth the terrible grind to get it.
And the stealth the boots give you along with 3/3 Master of Deception, as well as Shadow Armor to cloak gives you the best stealth you can get in the 60 Bracket.
Better than your standard Subtlety Rogue even. Rogue v Rogue I get the jump 99% of the time.

Ok, let's see if it's possible to collect the same looking items.
I've seen 3 so far: chest, belt and boots.

This set is no longer attainable as of 4.3. You can buy the replica pieces of this set with 55-75 darkmoon prize tickets per piece

If you'd like to link all of these items in game at the same time, copy and paste this macro:

/run local k,s=1,{"Belt","Boots","Bracers","Cap","Gloves","Pants","Spaulders","Tunic"}for i=22002,22009 do print("\124cff0070dd\124Hitem:"..i..":0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0\124h[Darkmantle "..s[k].."]\124h\124r")k=k+1 end

I got all the replica pieces from the Darkmoon Faire to transmog for my Night Elf druid. I found the shoulders kind of ugly, so I went elsewhere for those.

Boots 65 tickets
Cap 75 tickets
Belt 55 tickets
Gloves 55 tickets
Legs 75 tickets
Chest 75 tickets

After a little searching with the addon Mogit, I found these shoulders, (Item #31797). I think they match perfectly and look much sleeker than the ones that are part of the set. They come from a very simple quest on Bloodmyst Island. I finished it off with (Item #27903) for my polearm transmog.

Hope this helps.

I'm the proud owner of a level 59 rogue twink with this set, all pieces except the gloves are enchantable with lvl 60 enchants.

The questline to upgrade is expensive and tedious, but it's worth it.

Does the chain quests to get this set be removed when Cata comes out?
