The Trading post item Battle Magister´s orbs radiate a green light on your character when aplied as a Tmog. Is this intentional?.

That’s weird because mine show as blue on my character.

Mine show blueish
I am probably never gonna use this mog because there is nothing to match it with and my OCD can’t take it. I will never understand why they didn’t release complete sets. Unless they’re planning to drop the rest of the sets throughout the next year to keep people subbed, after all isn’t that the purpose of the Trading Post? 
Yeah, I was thinking the same. They may release them some time in the future.
The sets looks cool, it’s like a blue version of Kael’Thas. I’m using it as fire.
Yeah that’s so bizarre.
I ended up matching it with the set from Mythic Tomb of Sargeras. It’s reasonably close I think, but yeah I do wish they’d made full sets.
The merciless gladiator set from BC matches pretty well.
Bonus: Cape from Korthia
Also the normal HFC set goes pretty well. There’s quite a bit of mage gear that is just blue and gold

I tried both of those plus the alliance battleground cloth set and literally every single blue/gold armor I could think of. I wasn’t happy with any of them. The closest I found was an old vanilla robe that has a very similar blue base color though it has much darker gold accents but it’s so dated it clashes terribly with the modern design. The only thing that exists in the game right now that matches is the BE racial armor but of course that is red/gold not blue. I really want to use it but it drives me crazy when things don’t match so for now it’s shelved.
Take a look at my profile.
I kinda made something work with this. And yes, the orbs do illuminate.
Tip: Try an Inky Black Potion with this set on. You’ll thank me later.
It actually matches really well with the Raiment of the Arcanic Conclave set from Normal Hellfire Citadel IMO.
I stumbled across a Silver Covenant NPC last night wearing the Lieutenant Commander’s Arcanum set and that’s actually a pretty perfect match except again it has a 20 yo vanilla texture and you have to get 1800 PvP rating to buy it.
Seeing as I don’t PvP anymore and I resent not being able to transmog those old PvP sets when I earned them back in Vanilla (still have them in my bank even) because transmog wasn’t a thing back then and they decided to tie their unlock to arbitrary titles and ratings it’s not an option for me, sadly.
But I thought I’d mention it here in case someone has masochistic tendencies and wants to try to get 1800 rating in Solo Shuffle or whatever passes for PvP these days, lol.
Idk if it’s intentional but it’s ugly. I hate it
There’s a couple staves from vanilla that have this glow and I despise them. I honestly don’t want to wear the mog purely because of the glow. It’s terrible and idk why they added it.
Fire mages didn’t have a glow with their orbs, why does this?

I am not seeing the green light, but I like the mog, looks good to me.
Wear the helm in the dark, you’ll see it, and then you’ll never be able to unsee it lol

I think it’s that the light from the orbs is blue, shining on yellow armor. So, you know, blue plus yellow.

Looked like I could buy it with just honor tokens in Stormwind, and I never had an 1800 rating to my knowledge. Granted, I don’t have enough tokens and I’m not going to be doing any PvP to get them (maybe Comp Stomp if I feel so inclined). Also, yeah, it’s pretty dated as a set.
The 7th Legion stuff from BFA is the same color scheme and the textures are more modern. Still a bit of a patchwork match and again boggles the mind that they are passing off three accessory pieces as a “class set,” but here we are. I feel similarly about the Medivh themed “set.” Like, give me a robe at least that matches it.
The one you can buy for honor isn’t transmogrifiable because reasons, lol. Typical Blizzard gatekeeping old stuff to somehow make it special and a chase item. Same thing they did with the return of the T3 sets. A big L all around.
Btw, I belatedly figured out why almost nothing matches this “set.” It’s because the tertiary color is a dark gray and most items in game that have blue as the main color and gold as the secondary/accent color use white as the tertiary (like all the Alliance battlefront sets).
P.S. I see that green glow now and it bugs me too. It’s especially obvious if you get close to a wall because it immediately shines a green glow like a flashlight and they have the glow emitting from the collar rather than the orbs for some inexplicable reason which makes your face look eerie af. Also why is it green and not blue like the orbs which should have been the light source… such a mess!

I walked near a wall to check and the glow is pure green.
It’s so ugly 
Update: so I logged in to a character that already had the Battle Magister’s mog on, and the glow is gone. I’m not sure what happened to make it go away, other than I logged out/in maybe?
Side note: Unequipping the helm and putting it back on brought the glow back 
I really wish they’d just remove it, it’s so ugly
Ah, I did not know that. Seems pretty silly and arbitrary.

It’s not that bad 
. Besides, they were verdant spheres.
I wonder why the made the tint blue instead of red. To me it feels a bit weird to wear blue tint gear as a fire mage (because of Kael) but:
- Blue is my favorite color
- A blue flame indicates an efficient combustion.
