Kirina's Closet

The urge to swash and buckle is not lightly ignored. Here are some of my pirate costume ideas.

For a quick, easy fix you can always eat Savory Deviate Delight, which, as Kirina already discussed, can be replicated with the Black Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Captain Sanders’ Sash, X-52 Pilots Leggings, and Buccaneer’s Boots.

If you want to put in more time and work — and destroy and then have to rebuild your Steamwheedle Cartel reputation — you can go for the Buccaneer’s Uniform. For all the effort it takes to earn the genuine Bloodsail Uniform, it is actually fairly easily replicated with the Buccaneer’s Vest / White Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Captain Sanders’ Sash, Knitted Pants, and Buccaneer’s Boots.

This outfit is kind of a combination of the two, featuring the: White Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Captain Sanders’ Sash, Sage’s Pants, and Buccaneer’s Boots, shown here with with the: Mariner’s Sword and a Small Dagger.

On Pirate’s Day, Dread Captain Demeza and her Dread Crew come to town:

By speaking to Demeza, or to any of the pirate-costumed commoners in capital cities, you receive the Corsair Costume.

The closest matches I found for Captain Demeza’s clothes are the Shadow Council Tunic and Shadow Council Pants, green drops off mobs in the highest level zones of Outland, along with the Silver-Thread Sash and Buccaneer’s Boots . A rapier and the Disciple’s Stein complete the set.

The Corsair Costume can be replicated with the White Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Buccaneer’s Cord, Buccaneer’s Pants / Crimson Silk Pantaloons, and Buccaneer’s Boots (unless you are a Tauren):

Ketura is too low level to wear even the tailored Admiral’s Hat (which requires level 43), so she’ll be wearing either the Silk Headband or Battered Jungle Hat, which I thought were the most piratey options available for her level. Her companion is the Senegal Parrot, which is a smaller version of First Mate Hapana’s pet.

Or you could choose to be part of Demeza’s Dread Crew with an outfit of Deckhand’s Shirt / Captain Sanders’ Shirt, Captain Sanders’ Sash, Seafarer’s Pantaloons, Knitted Sandals, with a Cutlass and Ritual Stein. The men are also wearing Canvas Bracers. The Seafarer’s Pantaloons drop from a level 22 rare mob in Loch Modan, the Large Loch Crocolisk. If you can’t find them, some decent substitutes might be Twill Pants, Brightcloth Pants, Gossamer Pants, or Guard’s Leggings (Horde quest reward).

This version of the Dread Crew outfit uses the Guard’s Leggings and a Small Dagger (since Ketura didn’t have a Cutlass on hand).

There must have been a run on Black Swashbuckler’s Shirts on my server’s auction house this weekend, because I couldn’t find one for Ketura to wear (and Kaelinda can’t make it yet), so I couldn’t replicate the Yarrrr! costume. These are some ideas I came up with for other piratey sorts of duds:

Silk Headband Red Swashbuckler’s Shirt Captain Sanders’ Sash Crimson Silk Pantaloons Recruit’s Boots Mariner’s Sword Fine Scimitar.

Battered Jungle Hat Ebon Filigreed Doublet Captain Sanders’ Sash Sage’s Pants Recruit’s Boots Mariner’s Sword Small Dagger

This one is Oriental-inspired:

Silk Headband Blue Martial Shirt Captain Sanders’ Sash Sage’s Pants Recruit’s Boots Small Dagger Grayson’s Torch.

But there is one item my piratey dreams will have to do without:

The long captain’s coat worn by pirate NPCs such as Hecklebury Smotts (pictured), Baron Longshore, and Captain Grayson’s Ghost. *SIGH* Please Blizzard, can we have this as an equippable chest armor item for players?
