What to do with Earth-Encrusted Gems in WoW: The War Within.

The description for the Earth-Encrusted Gem tells you that it can be used to purchase cosmetic sets for Transmog from Osidion in Dornogal. Annoyingly, it doesn’t actually say where Osidion is, other than in the Forgegrounds. He’s actually located in a little pavilion on the raised eastern side, behind a counter.

Osidion trades the gems for a variety of civilian-themed cosmetic sets you can use for transmogs, each with a variety of colors. There are 6 different outfits available in a variety of recolors for a total of 30, with few more recolors available for certain achievements like Loremaster of Khaz Algar and Algari Master of Many. While you can only earn 10 Earth-Encrusted Gems from factions inWoW: The War Within, you will be able to purchase the remaining 20 for 9750 Radiant Crystals each.

You can find the location of Osidion, as well as an example of each of the sets he sells, via the gallery below:
