However, it was a long road to get there. The outfit in my mind was of black pants, black gloves, and some sort of long-ish, white tunic that would closely resemble the traditional white lab coat with the right shirt worn underneath it. I could never find it\u2026and, what\u2019s worse, is that I\u2019ve seen this type of chest piece before on NPC\u2019s, but, apparently, it will never be obtainable for players. And, talk about frustrating\u2026at that time, there weren\u2019t any chemical vial-like off-hands that Kirina could get \u2013 as they were rewards from quests she had already completed, or were from an Alliance quest (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=5611\" target=_blank>Tear of Grief<\/a>). It wasn\u2019t until Wrath of the Lich King hit the realms that I could buy her the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=29274\" target=_blank>Tears of Heaven<\/a> off-hand with left over <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=29434\" target=_blank>Badge of Justices<\/a><\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li>Kirina&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=29274\">Tears of Heaven<\/a>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<span class=\"frame-outer  shutterset\"><span><span><span><span><a href=\"wp-content\/uploads\/images\/alchem5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"shutterset\" src=\"wp-content\/uploads\/images\/alchem5.jpg\" width=200 height=150><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>But, my outfit for her still wasn\u2019t satisfactory. The only items I had were the off-hand frill and a pair of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=38089\" target=_blank>Ruby Shades<\/a> for look-alike safety goggles; Kirina wore these along with her usual armor.<\/p>\n<p>I finally switched my searching to robes\u2026seeing what I could find there, and, I was elated to come across the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=24679\" target=_bank>Archmage Robe<\/a> (who has a \u201ctwin\u201d piece \u2013 the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=9826\" target=_blank>Durable Robe<\/a>). Level 80 by then, I farmed the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?npc=21205\" target=_blank>Ravenous Flayer Matriarch<\/a> for hours each day\u2026hoping to get lucky with the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=24679\" target=_blank>Archmage Robe&#8217;s<\/a> nearly 0% drop rate. My fiance, Waddell, suggested I give up farming for it and just look on the auction house for either robe. Being too proud (I\u2019ve always went out searching for the item(s) I\u2019ve wanted \u2013 felt more like an accomplishment that way), I was reluctant at fist to look it up. But, I\u2019m glad I did. I got my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=9826\" target=_blank>Durable Robe<\/a> (and then some ^_^ ) the next day. The search for my alchemist outfit was over; however, my auction house shopping addiction had just begun, LoL.<\/p>\n<p>In any case\u2026here\u2019s what I\u2019ve been blabbing about:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<span class=\"frame-outer  shutterset\"><span><span><span><span><a href=\"wp-content\/uploads\/images\/alchem4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"shutterset\" src=\"wp-content\/uploads\/images\/alchem4.jpg\" width=200 height=150><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>\n<\/td>\n<td>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=9826\">Durable Robe<\/a>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=38089\">Ruby Shades<\/a>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=10919\">Apothecary Gloves<\/a>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=3749\">High Apothecary Cloak<\/a>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=29274\">Tears of Heaven<\/a> (not pictured)\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p>I choose the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=9826\" target=_blank>Durable Robe<\/a> because of the long jacket-like layer that could almost resemble a sort of lab coat worn over a longer robe. What really sold me was the color of the jacket  &#8211; it closely resembles the tan lab coat I wear in real life ^_^.  I added the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/?item=10919\" target=_blank>Apothecary Gloves<\/a> after I got them as a quest reward; (al)chemists wear gloves when working with chemicals, and these are form-fitted on the hands.
