World of Warcraft: 19 Best Transmog Sets for Demon Hunters

Key Takeaways

• Demon Hunters in World of Warcraft are renowned for their incredible speed and combat prowess, making them a go-to DPS Class.
• The unique Transmog Sets available for Demon Hunters allow players to stand out with aesthetics and visual designs that set them apart.
• From sleek dragon-inspired armor to Gothic-inspired outfits, Demon Hunters have a variety of options to enhance their appearance and style in the game.

When Illidan Stormrage settled his scores with the Burning Legion in World of Warcraft, he didn’t do it alone. Accompanying the famed mage is his army of Demon Hunters, which back then was the second Hero Class in the acclaimed MMO after Death Knights based on the corrupted Arthas Menethil. Demon Hunters have become a go-to DPS Class since their first appearance in Legion, boasting incredible speed and combat prowess.

However, what makes Demon Hunters quite the attractive Class even today are their Transmogrification sets. While most World of Warcraft players can preserve the looks of their favorite gear by transferring stats of more powerful armaments onto them, some Demon Hunter gear stands out among the rest of the game’s Transmog offerings.

Updated on September 24, 2024, by Rhenn Taguiam: With The War Within of the Worldsoul Saga tasking Alleria Windrunner, Anduin Wrynn, and Thrall to save Azeroth’s Worldsoul from the mysterious threat of Xal’atath, players will also be assigned to accompany these heroes to the subterranean realm within the planet called Khaz Algar which might hold answers to all their questions. In the context of lore, Demon Hunters seem to be the perfect Class to return for such an exploration, as their skills should allow players to navigate dangerous terrain more efficiently than other Classes. As a testament to their skill, players might want to equip their Demon Hunters with Transmog sets to reflect their expertise in fighting these new threats, with sets such as wrap-arounds for a more concealed look, a more thematic outfit, a sleek armor from the Shadowlands, and a more regal costume.

19 Vault Of The Incarnates (Mythic)

A Sleek Reinterpretation Of A Burning Powerset

Throughout Dragonflight’s story, players are tasked to protect Azeroth from the threat of the unstable Primal Incarnates. Defeating all of them in the Mythic version of the Vault of the Incarnates raid can give Demon Hunters the Vault of the Incarnates Mythic Set exclusive to their Class. Unlike other edgy Demon Hunter armor, this Mythic variant adds a sleek purple-white spin to the otherwise rugged browns of the original armor.

The set retains its earthly draconic aesthetic: stone-gray bones form the pauldrons, waist guards, and breeches. Cracked earthen plates make up leggings and shins, while purple cloth form covers along the upper body tucked with bone clips. Perhaps most alluring about this armor is its purple-white glow, symbolizing primal power. This coloration can provide a unique blend with the Demon Hunter’s green powerset signature, providing an out-of-the-box appearance for the Class.

18 Broken Shore Leather

Leather Wrap-Around For A Concealed Purpose

Demon Hunter lore stated that Illidan Stormrage trained a cabal of fighters in preparation for any attacks from the Burning Legion, making the Class earn the same infamy as Warlocks in terms of their mysterious nature. As Demon Hunters use the powers of the beings they slay, they’ve earned a reputation for being fearsome fighters. This is what made many of them secluded from the rest of Azeroth – and something that makes Broken Shore Leather quite the fitting piece, at least in terms of aesthetics.

From the perspective of a Demon Hunter supposedly trained by Illidan in the Outlands, this armor adds dimensionality to the Class backstory. A Demon Hunter wearing this set hides their true nature within the armor’s bandaged straps that act as an undersuit. Major leather “plating” adds depth to the suit, with pauldrons with spiked ends allowing the armor to form quite the vicious silhouette. The suit conceals the Demon Hunter’s face with a cowl and face mask, with the only semblance of their hidden powers reflected in the purple glow of gems scattered across the set.

17 Demon-Rend Armor

More Evocative And Thematic Armor

One of the earlier Transmog pieces a Demon Hunter can acquire in their World of Warcraft gameplay would be the Demon-Rend Armor. Unlike other Demon Hunter gear, the lower-level nature of the Demon-Rend Armor makes it a decent “benchmark” of the Warcraft Class’s aesthetic: bandages on the arms and legs as underclothing, coats of leather for the bracers and legging, the exposed toes, and the bare chest.

This leaves room for a more prominent pair of pauldrons, a large waist guard and belt, and customization options for the face. In the case of the Demon-Rend Armor, the Demon Hunter can enjoy a red face mask with a raised collar and blindfold that couldn’t conceal their glowing eyes. The armor also has that characteristic Fel-green glow on the symbols etched on the pauldrons, belt, and even under the thigh guards.

16 Discordant – Kyrian Covenant Path of Ascension Leather Armor Set

Become An Agent Of Soul Protection

Among the many factions in the Shadowlands, the Kyrian Covenant and their domain over protecting the souls of the dearly departed make for a perfect otherworldly “side gig” for the Demon Hunter. Represented by the Discordant – Kyrian Covenant Path of Ascension Leather Armor Set, this armor befits someone whose desire to protect souls has led them to the path of killing demons.

While technically Transmogrifiable to all Leather Armor, the Discordant set enhances Demon Hunter’s look, emphasizing a sleeker, stealthier look. As with other Leather Armor, the Discordant has an inner bodysuit that reveals the elbows. This time around, the forearm armor is comprised of collared gauntlets, while the leggings have an outer shell lining. The boots have plate-like protrusions resembling wings, while their pauldrons are vented with lamellar bottom lining. Completing the look is a central purple gem and smaller gems that populate the suit, while the shoulder-vents and leg-wings emanate a purple glow that blends well with the Demon Hunter’s green Fel energy.

15 Uldir Raid Leather (Mythic Recolor)

Regal Wear For Demon Slayers

While the Battle for Azeroth expansion came after Illidan Stormrage’s return with his Demon Hunter pack, members of his demon-slaying forces who want a more regal look can trade their traditional clothing for the more sophisticated offerings of Uldir Raid Leather (Mythic Recolor). Whereas the base iteration of the armor has an odd mixture of bronze top and iron bottom armor coloration, the Mythic Recolor enjoys a more consistent color scheme.

Layering remains the most appealing part of this set. The undersuit alone has detailed lines that denote more exquisite construction, with belts holding inner thigh armor. Plate layering becomes a consistent part of execution, with the lower pauldrons, gauntlets, and boots offering clean scale-like transitions. Lamellar-esque belt lines run both sides of the shoulder to add a more exquisite look. The helmet is a bascinet outer shell with a barbute interior. The eye sockets and the pauldrons have a subtle yellow glow, indicating some sort of sophisticated power source.

14 Crimson – Venthyr Covenant Renown Leather

A Bloodied Reminder Of A Demon Hunter’s Pledge

When players end up in the Maw during their trip to the Shadowlands, they will likely get in contact with the afterlife’s many Covenants. Of these World of Warcraft factions, the vampiric Venthyr feed on their bleeding pride, vanity, and other earthly attachments. Should a Demon Hunter curry enough favor with them, they can acquire the Crimson – Venthyr Covenant Renown Leather Armor Set.

This armor set is characterized by a sleek black trenchcoat with a sprinkle of red and gold lining with a crimson cowl. The rest of its details are red plate with golden details, be it a skull-patterned buckle, an assortment of spikes, and bladed wing-like appendages on the pauldrons and shins. When paired with the Mantle of Crimson Blades, the Demon Hunter will have a set of blades protruding from their back. This bladed aesthetic fits the sheer ferocity of the Demon Hunter and can make for a visually striking contrast with the Class’ green-themed energy aesthetic.

13 Dazar’alor Raid Leather (Mythic)

A Bone-Heavy Alternative For Demon Hunter Visuals

When players are brought in a blast to the past throughout Battle for Azeroth, the Battle of Dazar’alor will have the Alliance fight King Rastakhan while the Horde defends the city. While the victory of either faction will have a different effect on its story’s ending, Demon Hunters looking for sophisticated armor may appreciate the Dazar’alor Raid Leather (Mythic) Armor Set.

With the Zandalari Trolls to thank for the prominence of bone in their culture, this World of Warcraft gear is as skeletal as the theme could get. Sans the chest, all parts of the armor are lined with ribcages containing spiked protrusions from their spinal segments. The chest area is leather armor outlined with bone, while the cowl is a skull. Emanating from the armor is a deathly blue glow, which can be a visual bonus to the Demon Hunter’s signature green power aesthetic.

12 Castle Nathria Raid Leather (Mythic)

A Gothic Demon Hunter Concept

Fans of other Blizzard IPs such as the Diablo franchise may want to know if they can bring some of the franchise’s Gothic aesthetic to their Demon Hunter gameplay. Thankfully, Castle Nathria provides them with such visual entertainment once they enter the Venthyr Covenant’s court of Revendreth and clear the fortress’ raid. Doing so gives Demon Hunters a chance to earn the Castle Nathria Raid Leather (Mythic) Armor Set, essentially a sleek Gothic-inspired armor perfect for an alternate look.

Save for the plated pauldrons, belt, arm guards, and boots, the rest of the armor is characteristically Gothic in terms of its outfit choice. Its coat-dependent top with wide collars opens up to a red polo, while a cowl covers much of the lower face of the character. Topping this outfit is a fedora with metallic lining and an eerie red glow from the spiked shoulders, essentially screaming blood. Pairing this with the greens of the Demon Hunter’s energy can give the outfit a sickly glow, adding an element of fright to the mix.

11 Sanctum Of Domination Leather (Mythic)

A Domineering Take On A Death-Themed Outfit

When players defeat Kel’Thuzad and Sylvanas Windrunner in the Sanctum of Domination, their World of Warcraft experience can help them acquire the Sanctum of Domination Leather (Mythic) Armor for their Demon Hunter. While themes of darkness and death aren’t new to the Hero Classes, the Death Knight and the Demon Hunter, the latter will particularly enjoy this Mythic Leather garb for its more mysterious take on the concept.

Gone is the dominance of skulls and bones in the outfit. Save for a skull-themed buckle, spikes, and a black shroud hide skull pauldrons and a mask accompanied only by an eerie red glow. The rest of the outfit is characterized by heavy curves and slender blades – perfect for the Demon Hunter’s warglaives.

10 Felreaper Vestments

Armor Arrangement Adds Mystery To Illidan’s Descendants

When Demon Hunters aid in the fight against the heart of the Burning Crusade in Antorus, the Burning Throne, they can acquire the Felreaper Vestments as a testament to their skill. Present across its variants are skulls for shoulder pads and the belt buckle alongside spikes adorning the bracers and leggings. Most of its variants feature a hood across the forehead and an upturned collar covering much of the face.

While the blue smoke and barbute-style cowl of its Mythic Recolor give Demon Hunters a Lich King-esque look, the outfit’s Raid Finder Recolor gives it a more dynamic look. The heavy teals, gold skulls, and gold details mesh well with the Demon Hunter’s green energies and otherworldly training. The face-covering collar also adds to the mystery of the Heroic Class, similar to their leader, Illidan.

9 Aberrus, The Shadowed Crucible

Draconic Motif Offers A Breath Of Fresh Air

Should the Demon Hunters succeed in dominating Nelfarion’s notorious laboratory in Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible, players can obtain an exclusive class set of the same name. Taking cues from the area’s nature as an experimental ground for dragons, the Demon Hunter Aberrus set heavily emphasizes jagged and serrated details over its main armor pieces. Most notable in the armor’s design elements are its shoulder pads stylized as dragons with wings covering the front and the back of the shoulders, with tails forming bladed protrusions.

The fel green of the shoulder pads and the central belt buckle mesh well with the Demon Hunter’s overall energy colors. Even the Normal variant of the Demon Hunter Aberrus set gives the class more color with heavy reds and strong gold details. The armor’s orderly serrated look fits the Demon Hunter’s wild aesthetic.

8 Ny’alotha

Defeat Demons With Eldritch Powers

Denizens of Azeroth who thought the Old Gods were extinguished can find them biding their time in Ny’alotha, an alternate future reality of Azeroth where they re-established their Black Empire. Stopping this attempt will grant players access to the Ny’alotha Raid Normal Leather Set, possessing design qualities and a color scheme that shows the Demon Hunter’s willingness to go “beyond” in their pursuit of vanquishing the Burning Crusade.

Covering the leather armor’s purple cloths and gray armor pieces are an assortment of eldritch-inspired elements. The armor has a cowl inspired by an angler fish sans the lighting, with teeth covering much of the face. The chest plate has a purple eye bordered with teeth, while fins dominate the shoulders and the bracers. Players looking for an otherworldly spin to their Demon Hunter in World of Warcraft won’t go wrong with the Ny’alotha set.

7 Terrorblade Battlegear

Open Mouths And Sockets Enhance Uncanny Valley Motif

The point of Illidan’s Demon Hunters is to instill fear into the hearts of the Burning Crusade’s demonic forces, with the Terrorblade Battlegear emphasizing quite the ghastly look. Acquired after defeating the Old God Yogg-Saron, Demon Hunters can get a sleeker outfit reminiscent of Diablo 3’s Demon Hunter Class.

Part of what makes the outfit unsettling is the inclusion of screaming faces, with all sockets and mouths brimming with orange energies. While it’s cool to see only a pair of glowing eyes after being covered by oversized side collars and an upturned inner collar, the outfit caps its disturbing look when wearers realize that even its cowl is made of a screaming face.

6 Bladesworn – Necrolord Covenant

Stitched Aesthetic Boosts Infernal Appeal Of Demon Hunters

When players gain enough renown with the warlike Necrolords of the Shadowlands, their connection with the Covenant can give them access to the Bladesworn – Necrolord Covenant Campaign Leather Armor Set. Compared to other Covenant armors, the Bladesworn fits the Demon Hunter’s otherworldly nature, especially with the backstory of being trained in the Outworld to eliminate demons of the Burning Crusade.

The outfit screams hardcore with its mixture of bone, leather, and metal. The majority of the suit is comprised of stitched leather parts with bones for shoulder blades, knee pads, leggings, and clawed boots held together by iron plates. Two bone protrusions are the left shoulder pad, while a skeletal arm and hand are attached to the right. The helm is the skull of a demon with a broken left part replaced with a metal faceplate.

5 Demonbane Armor

Hard Angled, Geometric Plates Enhance Scare Factor

Acquired specifically from Atrigan the Tormentor in the Tomb of Sargeras, Demon Hunters who want to enjoy their World of Warcraft gameplay can gain quite a thematic outfit with the Demonbane Armor, specifically its Mythic Recolor. Bandages remain a crucial part of the interior suit of the scarce Demon Hunter, with a long underdress with fur lining serving as the only non-armored coverage of the outfit.

The rest of the Demonbane Armor enjoys an inclination towards serrated edges, with details lining the skirt armor also emphasizing spikes and hard angles. Aside from blades that line the edges of the shoulder pads and the helmet, a key design element would be horns protruding from the shoulders and bracers that glow with green fel energy. Compared to its more vibrant counterparts, the Mythic Recolor variant’s neutral coloration and emphasis on the green glow add a more menacing look to the Demon Hunter.

4 Barbed Assassin Battlegear

Vent With Green Energy Motif Gives Regal Appeal To Modest Demon Hunters

Demon Hunters who want a more imposing armor for their World of Warcraft class may enjoy the Barbed Assassin Battlegear. Compared to the sleek lethality of the Rogue, the Barbed Assassin gives Demon Hunters a more brutal infernal take on their journey. The outfit having a leather undersuit and ornate iron armor plating is nothing new, but its visual uniqueness is tied to its furnace inspiration.

On top of spikes protruding from the shoulder pads are an assortment of vents around the armor, particularly on the sides of the shoulders, the bracers, the belt, and even the face guard. The slits glow with green energy reminiscent of the Demon Hunter’s dependence on the fel. The darker color scheme of the Barbed Assassin can give Demon Hunters a stealthier appearance, as though serving as a part of Illidan’s shadow unit.

3 Vestment Of Second Sight

More Demonic Motif Enhances Devilish Hunting Aesthetic

When Demon Hunters defeat Grand Magistrix Elisande, they can acquire the Vestment of Second Sight. The armor’s normal iteration of bronze details over bluish plates hint at Elisande’s Night Elf ancestry, but its Mythic Recolor serves as a more fashionable Demon Hunter outfit. Both iterations have similar design cues: leather undersuit, furnace-inspired shoulders, demon-face knees with side blades, and even glowing green symbols.

However, where its Mythic Recolor shines is giving the outfit a sleeker take befitting the class. Red cloth and bandages become more prominent, helping the teal plates and bronze details pop. A demonic faceplate gives the outfit a more terrifying exterior, with green energies now occupying the entire shoulders to sync well with the Demon Hunter’s auras.

2 Vault Of The Incarnates – Skybound Avenger’s Flightwear

Stone And Energy Combination Gives A Primal Look

Azeroth’s defenders in pursuit of Raszageth of the Primal Incarnates can fight her in the Vault of the Incarnates, where defeating her can give players access to the Skybound Avenger’s Flightwear. While the Flightwear and the Vault of the Incarnates Mythic Armor Set look alike with a predominance of rocky plates for a primal look, the latter’s colder color scheme fits the deathly greens of the Demon Hunter’s overall aesthetic.

A sheet of spiked rocks forms the armor’s skirt area while swirling rocks also form large shoulder plates and the helmet. Glowing energy emanates from the bracers, shoulders, and the back of the helm, as though indicative of primal power. While the Flightwear boasts the usual earthly tones and yellow energy, the Mythic variant has purplish-gray rock and violet-hued energies that contrast the Demon Hunter’s green fel aura, adding more vibrance to the class’s color scheme.

1 Sepulcher Of The First Ones

Heavy Spike Motif Transforms Demon Hunters Into Punishers

The Jailer’s quest to “rewrite” the rules of reality in the Shadowlands expansion takes him to the Sepulcher of the First Ones, the resting place of the supposed acausal powers that formed the very universe. Should players defeat the Jailer in this dungeon, they can obtain the Mercurial Punisher’s Painweave, an armor set known for its geometric details that often end in spikes, as well as large glowing protrusions from the shoulders with spiked bands.

However, it’s the Sepulcher of the First Ones Mythic variant of the Painweave that suits the Demon Hunter’s overall aesthetic. On top of a more pronounced belt and a more vibrant red-gold color scheme, energy glows from the circlet-esque helmet and shoulder protrusions, giving Demon Hunters a more “pure” aesthetic in their quest to vanquish the Burning Crusade.
