Just when I think I’m done posting for a while because there’s not enough time in the day, I get distracted by this awesome Spring Festival war-steed Caparison that is just begging me to be used in a screenshot. This most outrageous neon-green color has me completely fascinated, so here it is. The dawn gave me just enough time to capture a few worthwhile screenshots of my latest dark and mysterious night elf outfit.
There’s no shot of the backside of the outfit unfortunately, but this unique top, which is now for sale at Lalia’s Market in Bree, has a beautiful back, so I didn’t cover it up with a cloak. If you love the Annúminas cosmetics, this top makes a great addition to the Seven Stars set. I first saw this top during the Dressage daily in Harwick but had not seen it before and had no idea where to get it. I’m so glad it’s now available as a cosmetic!
The head piece however is no longer available in game, as it belongs to the obsolete PvMP Hunter’s armour set. I hope those sets will show up at Lalia’s too some day!
Head: Helm of the Hawk-eye, black dye (Hunter PvMP set, no longer available)
Shoulders: Shoulders of the Wall-warden, black dye (Warden BG level 65 set, Classic Vendor)
Chest: Jacket of the Woods, black dye (Lalia’s Market, cosmetic)
Hands: Gauntlets of the Hidden Paths, black dye (Great River quest reward, heavy)
Legs: Leggings of the Seven Stars, black dye (Annuminas Light Set, Cosmetics Vendor)
Feet: Boots of the Shadow-walker, black dye (Burglar BG level 65 set, Classic Vendor + Lalia’s Market)
War-steed: black hide & mane, tail
Caparison: Spring Lissuin Caparison, black
No saddle, halter or leggings. Elves ride bareback!

I’m hyperventilating, that head piece is so cool! I do hope Laila puts it in the shop – I wants it, precious!!!
Ha ha Cat, I hope so. Liked your purple carnival variety for the steed too!
Actually you can still get the head piece, at least, hunters can. It’s the head piece of the Moria hunter set and it’s called ‘Helm of the Great Bow’ (http://lotro-wiki.com/index.php/Item%3AHelm_of_the_Great_Bow) ^.^
Though very similar (as it has the same design) it is not the exact same piece. This piece is originally from the Hunter PvMP set and has a different (darker) base colour.
You are absolutely right. I thought it was the same item just dyed black. However, I just tried it out on my hunter and even though it looks the same, it certainly doesn’t dye the same 😥 Which is a pity, it look really really awesome the way you have it, in black.
Gorgeous! I love the rain in the scenery.
Thank you Leeann, it was one of those awesome moments in Rohan. Too bad it lasted only a few minutes.
these are very suggestive screenshots, I like the black and (neon 🙂 )green combo a lot! Dawn and the rain add a touch of mystery to the ensemble 😀
Thank you Gloredh!
I want that top and pants combo in real life. Wow. Gorgeous!
Wow, awesome steed and outfit combo! I wasn’t really feeling this caparison when I first saw it announced but this has completely changed my mind. Love it, looks great! Incredible screenshots, too. 🙂
I saw other awesome colour combinations too. I think even your beloved chartreuse would work! Thanks Starry 🙂
Well done you saved the mount for me …the horrible green combination was just so er…snotty! (I also have horrible nightmares of a bathroom my parents had which was all green..always made me feel sick!)
But you made it work 🙂
Bring back that Helm of the Hawk-eye!
This is a very sharp looking cosmetic set and that horse sets it off nicely. 😀
Very striking in black! I have it done in the turquoise which is very springy..but will have to try the black for evening soirees! Nice job once again. 🙂
It’s a gorgeous outfit! This inspired me to work hard to get my own Lissuin pony and the warsteed cosmetic bundle. I was so glad when I got the full set in one of the giftboxes! For now it’s stored away safely, but once I can use it……
Thanks for sharing!
These are the pants I started googling cosmetic outfits to find. I’m so glad I did, loving this wordpress blog!
Does anyone know where you can get the top? Lala’s Market no longer carries it : (
Unfortunately this top was unique to Lalia’s Market. Perhaps it will be stocked again in a future update.

Yeah, the helmet is looking like Cat-Woman … Very nice, what a pity, that it isn’t in the game anymore!
