Challenging Alternatives:
The following items are closer matches than those above to the armor worn ingame by Mountaineers, but are rather hard to obtain.
To the right you can see one of them Expeditionary Mountaineers on the borders of Elwynn Forest and Burning Steppes.
Wrists – Emissary Cuffs (BoP drop from Dark Iron Ambassador, a very rare-spawn in Gnomeregan, at a 32% drop rate)
Waist – Nigh-Invulnerability Belt (BoE crafted by Engineers of 350+ skill. Only wearable by engineers!)
Legs – Field Plate Leggings (BoE world drop)
Recolours:
You can also use Azure-Silk Hood, Which is usually cheap due to it being a low level tailor thing to help them get levels.
And if you’re a hunter, You can try and obtain Marauder’s Leggings which are a legs with the model that the mountaineer’s have, Except it’s mail.
