Skyshatter Sets
Shaman Tier 6
Armor Type: Mail
Level Req.: 70
Source: BoP token purchases and boss drops from Outland raids
Availability: Time consuming to farm and will require assistance
How to get the set:
There are three visually identical Skyshatter sets in total, one for each shaman spec:
Enhancement – Skyshatter Harness
Restoration – Skyshatter Raiment
Elemental – Skyshatter Regalia
Tier 6 sets are unusual in the fact that the bracers, belts and boots were added later than the rest of the set (when Sunwell Plateau arrived in patch 2.4), and have a completely different appearance to the earlier tier pieces, which are purchased using tokens from Black Temple and the Battle for Mount Hyjal.
The Skyshatter belts, bracers and boots visually match the Sunwell Shaman Sets, but thankfully there are pieces for these slots matching the rest of T6, listed in the ‘Extras’ section below.
The following list highlights the source of each tier token, which may used to buy the related armor pieces from Tydormu, just inside the entrance to Hyjal Summit in the Caverns of Time. If you are only interested in appearance, it doesn’t matter which armor set you choose, as they all look identical and are purchased from the same tokens anyway.
Head Token – Helm of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Archimonde in Hyjal Summit, at a 65% drop rate)
Shoulder Token – Pauldrons of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Mother Shahraz in Black Temple, at a 68% drop rate)
Chest Token – Chestguard of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Illidan Stormrage in Black Temple, at a 70% drop rate)
Glove Token – Gloves of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Azgalor in Hyjal Summit, at a 68% drop rate)
Leg Token – Leggings of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from The Illidari Council in Black Temple, at a 70% drop rate)
Extras:
Wrists – Howling Wind Bracers (BoP drop from Rage Winterchill in Hyjal Summit, at a 14% drop rate)
Waist – Flashfire Girdle (BoP drop from Shade of Akama in Black Temple, at a 6% drop rate)
Feet – Boots of Oceanic Fury (BoP drop from High Warlord Naj’entus in Black Temple, at a 7% drop rate)
Sunwell Tier Pieces:
These do not match the above items. See Sunwell Shaman Sets for items matching the following tier pieces.
Bracer Token – Bracers of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Sathrovarr the Corruptor (Kalecgos))
Belt Token – Belt of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Brutallus)
Boot Token – Boots of the Forgotten Protector (BoP drop from Felmyst)

To the best of my knowledge, this set is no longer available ingame. Also for the moment we’re not including PvP gear, as we generally have a policy against class specific equipment. This may change soon however, due to the interest in appearances for transmogrification.
The red variation is available in netherstorm from one of the classic PvP vendors.
Yes, we have an article on that set infact: Vengeful Gladiator’s Shaman Sets. However, at the time of the comment you’re responding to, August 2011, the set wasn’t available.
LOL bad l2p, infact this set is still ingame … I just farmed it, happy hunting. Sir plz research befor you opin your uneductaed mounh. kthxbai
On the contrary, it’s probably you who should do some research before you open your mouth. The comment I made referring to a set no longer being obtainable in-game was a reply to BaoPham talking about the Vengeful Gladiator’s Wartide, a Season 3 recolour of Skyshatter, which you can no longer purchase.
Regarding Flashfire Girdle for the waist… “Shade of Akama in Hyjal Summit” 😡
Shade of Akama is the third boss in Black Temple.
Fixed.
For those wanting a smaller shoulderpiece, the Grunt’s Pauldrons of X ( http://www.wowhead.com/item=15513 ) match both this and the recolor set pretty much perfectly.
