Here is what the pack contained and how the pieces fit together.
What the High Scholar's Pack Included
The High Scholar's Pack was a limited-time Battle.net Shop bundle priced at $25 USD. It packaged the High Scholar's Arcana transmog set together with 500 Trader's Tender, pairing a full appearance set with a stack of the Trading Post currency that could be spent on whatever was in that month's rotation.
The set leaned hard into the studious-mage fantasy, all tomes, librams, and arcane trim, which made it a popular fit for casters and roleplay collectors alike.
The High Scholar's Arcana Set, Piece by Piece
The set filled seven armor slots, each with its own scholarly flourish:
- High Scholar's Circlet (head)
- High Scholar's Mantle (shoulder)
- High Scholar's Gown (chest)
- High Scholar's Sash (waist)
- High Scholar's Slippers (feet)
- High Scholar's Gloves (hand)
- High Scholar's Drape (cloak)
Together the seven pieces formed a complete transmog look with no gaps to fill from other sources.
The Grand Staff and Trader's Tender
The High Scholar's Grand Staff completed the look, but it was never part of the pack itself. It appeared separately at the Trading Post for 500 Trader's Tender during the September to October 2023 window, so the 500 Tender bundled in the pack covered the staff almost exactly if a buyer chose to spend it that way.
📌 A common mix-up at the time was assuming the staff came inside the pack. It did not. The staff was a Trading Post purchase, and the Tender in the bundle was simply spending money you could put toward it.
When the Pack Was Available
The High Scholar's Pack ran in the Battle.net Shop from September 1 through October 31, 2023, spanning most of Patch 10.1.7 "Fury Incarnate." Blizzard noted that the High Scholar's Arcana set would eventually cycle into the Trading Post, but not for at least three months after the pack left the shop, which gave pack buyers first crack at the look.
