I should be doing work but I needed a sketch break. I’m not into designing armor at all, nor do I care for drawing it, but I had been wanting to doodle Varhys’ armor. Being a Sunreaver, which means he’s as much warrior as he is mage, Varhys is not about wearing cloth robes. He prefers something durable, yet light enough to not impede his movements or casting. So he goes for leather rather than plate.
I based the design off of Tirisfal Regalia, which holds a super special nostalgic place in my heart. My first experiences raiding were in Karazhan on my friend’s priest, and I did get some Tier 4. But getting the Tier 5 drops doing TK and SSC on my mage was my very first experience of earning tier for my own character. I still have a lot of it in my bank. I did keep a bit of the Sunreaver armor aesthetics too.
