Help with unobtainable DF item — Cobalt Winglord’s Cloak

I’ve been trying to complete the [Cobalt] variation of the Emerald Dracthyr Battlegear appearance set in-game, but one of the items, the Cobalt Winglord’s Cloak (id 194535), seems to be impossible to obtain.

Anyone else trying to complete the appearance set would run into the same issue.
There also appear to be a few extra items in the same situation, the Emerald Winglord’s Shoulders (188818) and the Emerald Winglord’s Chain (188825).

In total, there’s 3 missing skins from the Emerald Dracthyr Battlegear appearance set:

  • Cobalt Winglord’s Cloak (194535)
  • Emerald Winglord’s Shoulders (188818)
  • Emerald Winglord’s Chain (188825)

Is there any way to obtain any of those in-game? If not, can they be included in a future patch?

The blue one might be possible to get (I’m saying might because I haven’t fully tested it yet), either from the gear update feature, or from party sync caches.

The caches drop items called “Blue Winglord’s X” for evokers (although they are evoker only and thus so is their transmog). I have yet to get a cloak from them, so I can’t confirm nor deny if it’s available there.

The gear update should give “boost sets”, those are the sets that are given when a character uses a boost feature. These sets are also given in party sync caches (for most classes the sets used are the ones that were first obtained from the garrison salvage yard).

So my testing implies the blue winglord set is the evoker’s boost set. I’m waiting on an evoker alt to be eligible for a gear update to test it.

Interesting theory about the bonus boxes!

I found a few Blue Winglord items on Wowhead (e.g. 194530) and they seem to be a match! However, there’s no record for a “Blue Winglord” back item there.

Since these items are the same set as the Class Trial appearances, I thought I’d just try an Evoker’s Class Trial, but there’s no option for that in the character creation screen.

Could it be that, similarly to the Cobalt Winglord set, the boxes award all the same skins EXCEPT the cloak?

Edit: I’ve decided to make an Evoker myself, to try and grab some boxes!
