Visible armor in Rain of Fear is created by doing a combine inside a class specific container with a dropped component and perhaps another bit depending on tier. Head to Master Armorer Synlaris in Shard's Landing. Purchase a Rust-Tinged Box of Fear which matches your class for about 10k. The box is used for every combine but is not consumed so hold on to. The same vendor sells Essence Augmentor, used in some combines, for about 12k each. They stack so be careful you don't end up buying tons.

• Tier 1 - Place the Fear Touched XYZ in the box alone and combine. Be aware that while the drops are tradable, the armor is No Trade.
• Tier 2 - Place the Fear Stained XYZ in the box with either the matching Tier 1 completed armor or an Essence Augmentor.
• Tier 3 - Place the Fear Washed XYZ in the box with either the matching Tier 2 completed armor or an Essence Augmentor.
• Tier 4 - Place the Fear Infused XYZ in the box with either the matching Tier 3 completed armor or an Essence Augmentor.

If I get time I will break down drops by common source.
