I'd like to add that if you're a Demon hunter and you're farming the warglaives on said demon hunter, there is a skip for them in BT, after defeating the second boss, the giant elemental guarding the entrance, there's a chain to the left when you enter that you can climb, when you climb high enough, you can double jump and dash to the platform that takes you towards the last 3 bosses, skipping the other 3 entirely and can get to Illidan more directly, meaning a big time save.
First week I got the first glaive on my DH and the second week I got the second glaive on my DH. I was incredibly lucky, and used that trick as well. It helped me so much
I farmed the Battered Hilt in the Pit of Saron. So you don't have to just stick to the Halls of Reflection. You also get all the appearances once you complete the quest.
I was about to say back in 2009 it dropped for me in Pit of Saron, if nothing's changed then it should still drop there. Got it on day 1 of the release of the 3 dungeons, on the first run my friends and I did! Couldn't forget that moment.
A fun fact, Sylvannas also has the ability to use a Wailing Arrow in heroes of the storm, the only change being that she casts it at a location and not directly at a player.
@@aureliodeprimus8018 Your wrath and felguard can still have different weapons. But as warlock you have to have the sweet ones like Edge of Apocalypse from HFC etc dropped.
@@aureliodeprimus8018 You can still get it, but for the last bunch of expansions the cool two handed swords dont drop for warlocks due to the new tailored loot systems. And Shadowmourne was always in a quest Warlocks cant do.
I gave my Wrathguard Gorehowl from Karazhan, my warlock is an orc and during 5.4 I got pissed at Garrosh for killing all the orc warlocks so I farmed Karazhan until it dropped so I have my demon fight the a**hole in Siege of Orgrimmar with his father's weapon xD
One additional Shadowmourne benefit, upon completion you get 4-5 quests that each give a BOE item, a couple of which still fetch a decent price on the AH
@@gorkskoal9315 I forget the name but yeah the light up tabard, the crimson charger mount, a port to old dalaran, sylvanas music box. Sometime I can sell them for 50-250k each but it take time
@@johnwarner4178 Dude, nice! that's wicked great. Make sure to also get the port to dal crater. If I recall it's scarlet monastery in the library. You need to nuke down a boss trying to burn down the library. Then you set up portals to dal. One of who is the crater. I uh may or may not have a few times trolled on a orc mage doing that. lol.

When the transmog tab was first added, it was still 1 appearance per quest, if you do the quest now (post quest reward transmog update sometime in WoD/Legion) you get everything but the maces if you complete the quest with a 2 hand 1 hand sword proficient character
@@liplak2029 Who can use swords but not maces? Mages can use 1 hand swords, priests can use one hand maces. Rogues/Hunter/Paladin/Warrior/Monk/DK can all use both. Like, I'm not trying to be me. I'm genuinely curious which class can use both 1 and 2 hand swords, but can't use the maces. I feel like it's more that someone might not be able to use 2 hand maces(rogue/hunter.)
@@liplak2029 I got all the appearances when I completed the quest. Don't remember if I completed in my pally or warrior, though. It may have been WoD or Legion, too.
I did the quest long before WoD and Legion and I received every mog appearance. I've only ever done the quest once and it was on a warlock, which can't wield any but the 1h variant. So idk how you can explain that away but my experience is the opposite of what the video states.
Minor correction: you do NOT need to be a DH to get the warglaive appearance from black temple timewalking, you only need to have the feat of strength for getting the swords, then you can clear the timewalking raid on any character and get the appearance on your DH
correction the Battered Hilt can drop in any of the 3 ICC dungeons not just Halls of Reflection and most people farm Pit of Saron for it as it has the largest number of mobs with the least travel time (one loop around the pit without pulling any boss's, wait for mobs to stack up and then aoe them down, exit, reset and repeat).
Yeah...that's what I recall to. I mostly have that burned into my brain because I was probably one of 10 raid geared tanks left that'd happily help squishes farm for it. I don't know what the original poster is going on about for that one. Up to mop anyway it wasn't unusual for 'Mog run pugs to farm PoS. And particularly squishes often were out of luck to do mass farming, at least on Zu'ljin. Sufficed to say that while my poor tauren pali did jack all for DPS. It did, however, bring being tanky enough to pull a huge amount of mobs while DPS burned them down. Durring love is in the air, and some other random holidays for some reason it was super popular to do ICC Mog runs. Battered hilt was easy to slot in for getting a shit ton of love is in the air tokens. I have no idea if that's still the case.
I'll never forget how one time the Quel'Delar quest dropped for me, and I unknowingly gave it away to a random in my group. Not even mad about it, but I never ended up getting it again
YES! So happy that {Zin’rokh, Destroyer of Worlds} made your list Hiru. That bad boy dropped on the first raid I ever led.. ZG in the 7th grade (what was that, 2005 perhaps?). So, almost 2 decades ago! Also I’ve recently came back to the game (as you inspired me to ☺️) and I almost blasted to the moon when I realized how the weapon is STILL in my in-game bank account. Rocking that sword on my OG Orc Warlord of a hunter was one of the proudest things I have ever done. To see that I still own a top 20 weapon, in its glory and original form- to learn that from you made my day. Thank you @Hirumaredx, you got me through some dark days this year. 🕊️
You missed TWO V E R Y sought after xmogs: Arcanite Ripper (the one from Karazhan, do not get confused with Arcanite Reaper) and Sun-Lute of the Phoenix King!
I still rock my Zin’rokh and I was one of the first on the Silver Hand server to unlock it via Archeology. It took forever but it was worth it in the end because it looks fantastic, but it does need a bit of a graphical refresher.
I would like to add an honorable mention in the form of Teebu's Scorching Straight Sword and it's older version Teebu's Blazing Longsword. I don't believe there is any lore behind them, but they are very rare and especially the new one is quite sought after. It looks absolutely amazing. And the old one, though dated, emits actual light like a wand would.
The Battered Hilt questline gives you ever appearance, I did it years ago on a Druid and could use all appearances on whatever class could, like the swords on a Demon Hunter. It happened in that change they made years ago where completed quests gave you all the appearances available.
Took me 8 months of grinding to get Taeshalach, back when you had to use pets to solo Aggramar as they wouldn't be affected by the AoE push off the arena. Worth it though.
Great video! For me the most sought after weapons included the long lost but recently returned "Black Metal" weapons from Vanilla, as a musician, I was glad to finally get all of these a couple months ago. There are other green item weapons that could've made this list too like Ghoulfang.
Your video is good luck. ;3 I watched it yesterday and was reminded of the Scythe of the Unmaker. I haven't run mythic Antorus in ages because the Eonar fight is so annoying, but I gave it a go tonight and the Scythe dropped on my 2nd run. Thanks. (I already have Taeschalach.)
About your Thunderfury part of the video : you forgot to add that Outlaw Rogue artifact weapon hidden appearance was a HD version of Thunderfury with a similar questline to get it
In terms of Quel'delar, you can farm it in all the ICC dungeons, it is on the loot tables for all the mobs in FoS PoS and HoF, you do also get every appearance upon turn in, and even retroactively got all of them when they added that change for I've done the quest only once back in Cata and when they made the change to quests giving every appearance of quest rewards I now have all of them.
He is wrong on it being heroic quality. Also weapons from LK get +7 Itlvl added to the base level respectively. Normal 10 man gets 258 and 10H LK 271. 25N 278 weapons and 25H 284.
Thori'dal also makes your auto shots have a cosmic appearance, which persists even today via transmog. Definitely my favorite legendary of all time, and yes I'm a hunter main lol. I also have a Warglaive of Azzinoth on my Druid that has been sitting in the bank since MoP, so I think it can drop for anyone
I have a few of those : - The worst : Thunderfury. I was cleaning the Moltencore for the T2 of my Paladin when I got one of the link... I took me 2 years and a half to finally get the second link. The good side is that I shared that moment with my brother in game when I summoned Tonneraan in Silithus. - The OMG : Thori'dal. I decided to clean the Sunwell with my warrior to get the massive Blood-elf shield on Brutallus... Didn't got the shield but I got Thori'dal on that run... on a Warrior... the FIRST time I explored the raid. For the others : - Quel'Delar : litterally one of the first thing I did when I came back in Legion (left wow in late Cataclysm) : check the AH and got the hilt. - Tarecgosa : Thank god, I had my brother helping me for one of the boss (the trapper and the shard from his traps). - Fangs of the Father : a long grind, but relatively easy overall. - Fandral's Flamescythe : OOOooohhh, that's why I have the flame cat available. - Gorehowl : I have the version from Karazhan, so I'm happy. - Ashkandi : I have the V1 and V2. I may bother to take the V3 one day. - Shadowmourne : did begin the quest, but stuck in Lana'thael encounter. - Zin'rokh : might be my longest "on and off" chase right now.
I wasn’t doing much raiding back in Wrath unfortunately, but was able to snag the Battered Hilt on AH for around 10k gold. A lot for me at the time, but was a pretty good investment for a weapon power level I’d never get otherwise.
11) In Pandaria, if you were a rogue and got the daggers for Wrathion, once it came time to get your legendary cape, you were automatically already at honored with Wrathion, so it saved a fuck ton of time farming reputation.
Also, don’t forget that WARBANDS are coming, and the days of running for transmogs only to get ones that your character can’t use will be a thing of the past! I have been begging for a system like this since transmog was introduced, and I can’t wait for it to go live. I’m gonna run all of the dungeons and raids until I get every armor set and all of the weapons that I have been wanting since TBC!
For someone that quit in early BfA, I'm proud to say I got 9 of these (Chromatic, Quel'Delar, Val'anyr, Thunderfury, Thori'dal, Dragonwrath, Scythe of the Unmaker, Shadowmourne, Warglaives). On the lucky side, I got Scythe somewhere within 5 runs. On the unlucky side, I got both halves of the Warglaives... on my hunter.
I was so happy when I got Ashkandur off of Echo on Heroic mode. Big awesome Purple sword that matched the Purple paladin tier set. What an awesome weapon model.
I'm pretty sure Evokers can NOT use bows, or am I mistaken? Also, quick history fact: The first person (we know of) to receive the bow was a rogue. This was because the ammo created by the bow wasn't as good as the best ammo at the time and supposedly was a dps loss using it. Me personally, this blasted thing dropped for me soloing the raid as a shaman. Kept in in my bank for years and tossed it sometime before transferring servers; only then for blizzard to reveal the transmog changes coming in A War Within a few weeks later =S
Taeshalach is the Blade of Aggramar, who is the creator of the Orcs. Given it was indirectly, since the orcs descended from ogres and so on, until it was the first giants on Draenor. But that’s the case with all the titan created playable races. Whether done from an outside source or an eventual thing that happened due to circumstance.
I was so happy when I got the Warglaives of Azzinoth the day before and day of the reset on my Demon Hunter named Azzinoth last week. Luck or the game knew idk, but that was also the first and second run on that character. 😊
I got Taeschalach on my first run through, has absolutely no idea of what it was at the time and was pretty excited by how cool it looked for my Blood Elf Paladin! Then I was told about how rare the drop was, I’m just happy with how cool it looks for a Horde Paladin
I got the Quel'delar lens of the mind as a destro lock back during wrath and it was one of THE best one handed option the entire ICC raid. And the questline was AMAZING. My guildmates helped me with the group parts and kept me company during the solo parts ^^ one of my best wrath memories. I got my battered hilt from the Forge of Souls trash mobs and man was I bombarded with requests to sell it to the other group members until my guildies got annoyed at them and told them that I needed it just as much as they did and that it dropped for ME so it's MINE. I miss that guild and that time^^
I think that the group of players who WANT to have their own personal copy of a weapon (or a anything) which is legendary and unique in universe are a big issue for MMOs. Hopefully some dev can find a solution to that problem and cultivate a playerbase which is fine with letting the legendary just be somewhere out there. Keeps worldbuilding so much more epic.
When Demon Hunters came out, I did Black Temple 24 hours later and got one of the warglaives, then 2 weeks later I got the other. My friends hated me for years. Some of my friends still hate me, but that's beside the point.
I remember in Legion getting Taeshalach and everyone in my guild at the time freaking out, I had no idea how rare it actually was. I also got the Blue Scythe, Have yet to get the Mythic version. One day it'll be mine.
18:26 Actually therews a few variations on this that were handed out of rewards for the Summer Flames Event that had us killing an elemental in an outland dungeon. The color is blueish and not "spikey" but essentially the same weapon. IT also has its own chillfrost type effect that drips.
Ahhh ashkandi. One of my 1st favorite weapons that I've farmed for back in MoP :D whenever I xmog into the t2 judgement set, I also equipped the ashkandi
I’ve done this quest line a number of times now, first was on my DK when those dungeons first came out. I never noticed the difference when doing it in a Blood Elf, I did it with my BE warlock and took the 2 hander so my Felguard could wield it, it looked good in Legion having him smashing other demons with it.
I loved the Warglaives of Azzinoth so much, I farmed them before you got a transmog options, through the Feat of Strength - which I also did as soon as Black Temple timewalk released. I do hope we get a seperate version that is updated to more modern standards that honors the original design.
12/20 for me, not too bad. Funny story about Taeshalach, I got it on an LFR run on my warrior which i didn't play much but didn't notice i received it until a couple months later i happened to get back on that char and noticed this odd sword in my inventory. 1) Warglaives of Azzinoth 2) Taeshalach 4) Shadowmourne 6) Ashkandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood 7) Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros 9) Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest 10) Fandral's Flamescythe 11) Fangs of the Father 12) Thori'dal 13) Thunderfury 15) Val'nyr 18) Quel'Delar
Just FYI I did the Quel’Delar quest in TWW pre patch and was rewarded with all 7 appearances, so for anyone trying you don’t need to buy or farm 7 battered hilts.
Back in BC, I (a hunter) was taunted by a guild mate that I would never be able to use Illidan's warglaves. I took that personally. My hunter carries around her pair while my rogue carries my other completed set.
Hello, I wanted to clarify that you do not need to do Quel' Delar's quest chain multiple times. I did it on my hunter back in Wrath and at the time I only have the sword. But at some point Bill extended to give all the appearances. I confirmed that my Paladin can use the maces even though a hunter can't learn mace transmogs. I know I could use the 1 and 2 hand swords before the WarWithin Pre-patch
I had both Warglaives drop relatively quickly on my paladin during my long journey to get the shield tmog from Illidan. Took forever for them to drop for my DH and finally got the tmog during the most recent BC timewalking week.
I think that is why is not in the list. Too easy to get. You can also just make a class trial paladin and u'll get it with zero effort. (they start with a lookalike)
Correction for Fyralaths Bad Luck Protection, every time you kill Fyrakk get a greater ember item that when used, increases the axes drop chance, however, a ember on mythic will also count for embers on the lower difficulties, but a ember on lfr will only count for lfr, also on heroic and mythic, every boss before fyrakk has a chance to drop a lesser ember, which gives a smaller increase, also once you DO get the axe drop, as soon as you try to equip it the axe will nearly gill you and start a quest chain to allow you to actually wield it which involves acquiring materials that you need to use to allow you to actually equip the axe. Also for Ulduar leggo, there was actually a time where anyone could loot the ingots despite the on use when you have all 30 being healer class locked, I still have a bunch of them on my warrior to this day because of this lol.
in the years farming for the old legendaries, i got TF, Hand of Rag, Thoridal and even Teebu's Blazing Longsword, Ironfoe, Rivendare's mouunt, Ashes of Alar all before completing the Warglaives as a set... almost makes me want to come out of retirement just to see my rogue and pally again.
As far as I know, if you complete a quest where you have to choose a reward, you got the other option as appearance in your collection. Its the same with the Quel'delar Questline. I did it once and i have all 7 appearances
Lol, I got Taeshallach doing my one and only LFR during Legion. The night before BfA with a bunch of hyped up randoms. Didn’t even know it was that sought after until some guy approached me in Orgrimmar to ask me about it a year later when I used it as a transmog.
Don’t forget that for a while, Thunderfury was still a tank bis weapon in *TBC because of its status effect. It was outstanding at generating and maintaining threat in dungeons and early raids
Scythe of the Unmaker isn't technically cosmetic only. It has stats as you show and during the BFA pre-patch when they deactivated the artifact weapons, it had almost as good stats as the artifact weapons. I actually used it for a bit as feral druid.
Just for an accurate record: Battered Hilt can drop in all three of the “ICC dungeons: Forge of Souls, Pit of Saron, Halls of Reflection” in the Wrath of the Lich King and the Wrath of the Lich King Classic expansions.
I just now (10.1) completed the Shadowmourne quest line after having it since 3.3. I had this quest line in my quest log for 281 months. I was a holy pally in Wrath so my guild refused to help me obtain it. Secondly I just found out that there was a cheese was to solo the 'Blood Infusion' part of the quest. My pally now wields this axe as part of his transmog and I do not foresee a time when he will not have it as transmog. Another idea for a video in this vein would be top appearances for the artifact weapons from Legion. Some of them were really neat (demo lock) or just a pain to get (ret pally).
tarecgosa's staff also had a questchain added in dragonflight allowing players to activate the mount form without having to have the staff equipped or a weapon swap macro, so long as the player has the staff and only works for that specific character who has the staff. (Not account wide, sadly)
I have fond memories of healing CMs in MoP with my trusty Val'anyr. When we got serious about it and started selling the boost for the CM-set and tried to squeeze as many runs as we would in the time we all had to play that day I had to self it unfortunately :(
Have Thori'dal, Fandrels, and Dragonwraith, mog all three on their respective toons. Dragonwraith was a fun experience twice- getting it at first, which was amazing, and then the Dragonlands quest allowing me to mount for fast flying.
One of my favorites and very surprised it's not on here, unless you can't get it anymore, The Sword of Wizardry, closest thing to a lightsaber we'll ever get. Fun to make a Jedi Pally.❤
Shadowmourne can be obtained solo (with alts on the same account). The method takes advantage of the persistence of characters both when the game is suddenly stopped and when in combat.
Oh, i remember Nasz'uro as the reason why i back out of WoW again after trying to get it to drop for months and never seeing the gems yet seeing the chat being spammed with its messages of other players. It was like a mockery.
I started playing wow 2 months before SL expansion release, I was running legacy raids to understand the lore of the game and on my 2nd run I looted the Taeshalach without even noticing. I suddenly got multiple whispers for looting it. So now, as a main warrior, Im still not even concious enough how lucky I was.
Knowing I have a bit more than half of this list is nice...I still think it was wild I got the Warglaives on my Demon Hunter during the Legion pre-patch.
Shadowmourne is def, worth doing. I worked on it off and on for several years cuz I didn’t have anyone to help me with the vampire part. But you get a bunch of cool rewards at the end of the quest line.
I just wanna say it took me 4 years of weekly farming to finally get Thunderfury........4 YEEEEAAARRSSS. Man i was so happy when they finially let me Transmog it.
Classic BWL had some of the best looking epic weapons in the entire game and still does. From the untamed blade to the drake talon cleaver and maladath. They withstood the test of time.
For me, the best weapon appearance in WoW is by far the Crystal Shot Longrifle. No longer obtainable, since it was removed with the WoD Challenge modes, im one of the few lucky ones to have it unlocked (thanks to a friend gifting me a clear run xD), and im all the happier for it.
Quel'Delar was any of the 'new' ICC dungeons. Had mine drop on the very first pull of the very first dungeon under 10 mins from patch going up. I happily say I had the world first of it, since my guild immediately rushed through the quests with me, but no way to factually prove it. I never use the mog, but I still have the sword in the bank of my DK.
I have one of the greatest and most rare legendary items in WoW: Blackhand's Severed Arm! No, but seriously, due to some glitch, even though I completed the entire questline for the ring, this was mailed to me from the postmaster and now it sits in my bank where I might occasionally /slap people with it in trade chat :D Also, side note on the warglaives: they will drop for anyone, but only those classes that can equip them will get the achievement. Which was a bullshit move by blizz because I got them on my hunter and got the achievement before they changed it and had the achievement removed from my list. AND if you equip the glaives when you run the Well of Eternity dungeon, Illidan has some special interaction to it.
You can get the battered hilt for Quel Delar from any of the icc dungeons on heroic, not just Halls of Reflection, and the rewards are equivalent to ICC10n not heroic
Isn't there a low-drop epic version of Gorehowl from the last boss of Karazhan? Also, I place Thunderfury as a BWL weapon even if the 3 drops you need are from MC because you need Elementium as well hehe.
I would like to add a couple more awesome weapons to the list: the Infinite Hand from Tyr in the Dawn of the Infinite (Hiru is actually wielding it in the Dawn of the Infinite clips) and Gavel of the First Arbiter from the Jailer. They might not be very rare, but cool and quite interesting lore-wise.
The realization that I have Taeshelach and not only do I not play anymore but I didn't even know it had value. I just thought it was a cool flaming greatsword.
Got my Zin Rokh yesterday. 130 Troll solves 8 hours Mantid grind. So freaking lucky. I opened my last Troll arifact Crate. While doing solve 129 and then it showed up. My heart was beating so fast . Then i send it to my Demo Lock so my Felguard can wield it. :D

YES! So happy that {Zin’rokh, Destroyer of Worlds} made your list Hiru. That bad boy dropped on the first raid I ever led.. ZG in the 7th grade (what was that, 2005 perhaps?). So, almost 2 decades ago! Also I’ve recently came back to the game (as you inspired me to ☺️) and I almost blasted to the moon when I realized how the weapon is STILL in my in-game bank account. Rocking that sword on my OG Orc Warlord of a hunter was one of the proudest things I have ever done. To see that I still own a top 20 weapon, in its glory and original form- to learn that from you made my day. Thank you @Hirumaredx, you got me through some dark days this year. 🕊️

I wish you showed each weapon on screen more. Otherwise great vid, Ashkandi will always be my absolute favorite thing in the game.
You missed TWO V E R Y sought after xmogs:
Arcanite Ripper (the one from Karazhan, do not get confused with Arcanite Reaper) and Sun-Lute of the Phoenix King!
Imagine my joy when I trashed the Arcanite Ripper just because there was no room in my inventory...
@@paolo5297 what in your bags was so important that you couldnt delete it so you could loot Ripper? Nothing thats what.
they're not sought after as much as those as they are REALLY HARD and near impossible to get
@paolo5297 you can recover on blizzards website
wait, those are still available?
I still rock my Zin’rokh and I was one of the first on the Silver Hand server to unlock it via Archeology. It took forever but it was worth it in the end because it looks fantastic, but it does need a bit of a graphical refresher.
I would like to add an honorable mention in the form of Teebu's Scorching Straight Sword and it's older version Teebu's Blazing Longsword. I don't believe there is any lore behind them, but they are very rare and especially the new one is quite sought after. It looks absolutely amazing. And the old one, though dated, emits actual light like a wand would.
The Battered Hilt questline gives you ever appearance, I did it years ago on a Druid and could use all appearances on whatever class could, like the swords on a Demon Hunter. It happened in that change they made years ago where completed quests gave you all the appearances available.
I did the quest back in wrath, and I only have 1 appearance to this day
Took me 8 months of grinding to get Taeshalach, back when you had to use pets to solo Aggramar as they wouldn't be affected by the AoE push off the arena.
Worth it though.
Took me up until a few months ago, running on multiple characters every week since 7.3...kill me
Thats nuts i thought it had a %100 drop rate since my first time soloing the raid i got it lol
@@marcelrodriguez2067 same.. i thought uhh nice sword and checked it :D
Back in Legion, i got mine at first try during the first kill in normal.
And hundreds of insults from my guild teammates 😅
A few guildies and I randomly got it when Antorus was current. We didn’t realize the drop rate was so low.
Great video! For me the most sought after weapons included the long lost but recently returned "Black Metal" weapons from Vanilla, as a musician, I was glad to finally get all of these a couple months ago. There are other green item weapons that could've made this list too like Ghoulfang.
I am so blessed that I got taeshelach on my 1st run, but have been farming for purity’s edge for 3 months now. This was a fun vid, keep it up.
Your video is good luck. ;3 I watched it yesterday and was reminded of the Scythe of the Unmaker. I haven't run mythic Antorus in ages because the Eonar fight is so annoying, but I gave it a go tonight and the Scythe dropped on my 2nd run. Thanks. (I already have Taeschalach.)
About your Thunderfury part of the video : you forgot to add that Outlaw Rogue artifact weapon hidden appearance was a HD version of Thunderfury with a similar questline to get it
True. They look like crap tho, HD or not
Also if you do this quest line and have Thunderfury then he has some choice words to say to you
I was so hype’d to stumble into that Rogue quest back in the day…that was a time playing without guides for the joy of discovery. I had a blast.
Should’ve been the Protection Warriors hidden appearance
In terms of Quel'delar, you can farm it in all the ICC dungeons, it is on the loot tables for all the mobs in FoS PoS and HoF, you do also get every appearance upon turn in, and even retroactively got all of them when they added that change for I've done the quest only once back in Cata and when they made the change to quests giving every appearance of quest rewards I now have all of them.
So happy I finally xmogged my Corrupted Ashbringer in the Cata Prepatch today 🎉🎉🎉
3:34 this is not correct, 251 is normal ilvl from 10man. 264 is the heroic ilvl.
and 277 is the heroic 25man ilvl.
Came here to say exactly that.
He is wrong on it being heroic quality. Also weapons from LK get +7 Itlvl added to the base level respectively. Normal 10 man gets 258 and 10H LK 271. 25N 278 weapons and 25H 284.
Thori'dal also makes your auto shots have a cosmic appearance, which persists even today via transmog. Definitely my favorite legendary of all time, and yes I'm a hunter main lol. I also have a Warglaive of Azzinoth on my Druid that has been sitting in the bank since MoP, so I think it can drop for anyone
I have a few of those :
- The worst : Thunderfury. I was cleaning the Moltencore for the T2 of my Paladin when I got one of the link... I took me 2 years and a half to finally get the second link. The good side is that I shared that moment with my brother in game when I summoned Tonneraan in Silithus.
- The OMG : Thori'dal. I decided to clean the Sunwell with my warrior to get the massive Blood-elf shield on Brutallus... Didn't got the shield but I got Thori'dal on that run... on a Warrior... the FIRST time I explored the raid.
For the others :
- Quel'Delar : litterally one of the first thing I did when I came back in Legion (left wow in late Cataclysm) : check the AH and got the hilt.
- Tarecgosa : Thank god, I had my brother helping me for one of the boss (the trapper and the shard from his traps).
- Fangs of the Father : a long grind, but relatively easy overall.
- Fandral's Flamescythe : OOOooohhh, that's why I have the flame cat available.
- Gorehowl : I have the version from Karazhan, so I'm happy.
- Ashkandi : I have the V1 and V2. I may bother to take the V3 one day.
- Shadowmourne : did begin the quest, but stuck in Lana'thael encounter.
- Zin'rokh : might be my longest "on and off" chase right now.
I wasn’t doing much raiding back in Wrath unfortunately, but was able to snag the Battered Hilt on AH for around 10k gold. A lot for me at the time, but was a pretty good investment for a weapon power level I’d never get otherwise.
11) In Pandaria, if you were a rogue and got the daggers for Wrathion, once it came time to get your legendary cape, you were automatically already at honored with Wrathion, so it saved a fuck ton of time farming reputation.
Also, don’t forget that WARBANDS are coming, and the days of running for transmogs only to get ones that your character can’t use will be a thing of the past! I have been begging for a system like this since transmog was introduced, and I can’t wait for it to go live. I’m gonna run all of the dungeons and raids until I get every armor set and all of the weapons that I have been wanting since TBC!
"Reclaimed Ashkandi, Brotherhood of Ashkandur"
Had a slight stroke, don't worry about it
I mostly play classic over retail but still enjoy these videos.
For someone that quit in early BfA, I'm proud to say I got 9 of these (Chromatic, Quel'Delar, Val'anyr, Thunderfury, Thori'dal, Dragonwrath, Scythe of the Unmaker, Shadowmourne, Warglaives). On the lucky side, I got Scythe somewhere within 5 runs. On the unlucky side, I got both halves of the Warglaives... on my hunter.
I was so happy when I got Ashkandur off of Echo on Heroic mode. Big awesome Purple sword that matched the Purple paladin tier set. What an awesome weapon model.
Ashkandur, is such a sexy weapon! I like the normal and heroic version more than the mythic color variant
For the record, the slowfall use-effect on the Rogue Daggers still works. I keep them in my bags to this day for this exact purpose.
I'm pretty sure Evokers can NOT use bows, or am I mistaken? Also, quick history fact: The first person (we know of) to receive the bow was a rogue. This was because the ammo created by the bow wasn't as good as the best ammo at the time and supposedly was a dps loss using it. Me personally, this blasted thing dropped for me soloing the raid as a shaman. Kept in in my bank for years and tossed it sometime before transferring servers; only then for blizzard to reveal the transmog changes coming in A War Within a few weeks later =S
Taeshalach is the Blade of Aggramar, who is the creator of the Orcs. Given it was indirectly, since the orcs descended from ogres and so on, until it was the first giants on Draenor.
But that’s the case with all the titan created playable races. Whether done from an outside source or an eventual thing that happened due to circumstance.
I was so happy when I got the Warglaives of Azzinoth the day before and day of the reset on my Demon Hunter named Azzinoth last week.
Luck or the game knew idk, but that was also the first and second run on that character. 😊
I got Taeschalach on my first run through, has absolutely no idea of what it was at the time and was pretty excited by how cool it looked for my Blood Elf Paladin! Then I was told about how rare the drop was, I’m just happy with how cool it looks for a Horde Paladin
A massive pain in the Azzinoth.. Well done :)
Taeshalach + Dragonflight season 1 Elite PvP transmog is one of my favorite looks for my death knight.
I got the Quel'delar lens of the mind as a destro lock back during wrath and it was one of THE best one handed option the entire ICC raid. And the questline was AMAZING. My guildmates helped me with the group parts and kept me company during the solo parts ^^ one of my best wrath memories. I got my battered hilt from the Forge of Souls trash mobs and man was I bombarded with requests to sell it to the other group members until my guildies got annoyed at them and told them that I needed it just as much as they did and that it dropped for ME so it's MINE. I miss that guild and that time^^
I love the OG legendaries and Cataclysm legendaries with the really fun lore. Makes them special.
Did my first run for Taeshalach a few weeks back, and somehow managed to get it. Was astounded.
I think that the group of players who WANT to have their own personal copy of a weapon (or a anything) which is legendary and unique in universe are a big issue for MMOs. Hopefully some dev can find a solution to that problem and cultivate a playerbase which is fine with letting the legendary just be somewhere out there.
Keeps worldbuilding so much more epic.
Got Quel'delar, Thori'dal, Warglaives, Taeschelac, Scythe of the Unmaker, Val'anyr and Dragonwrath at least. Pretty awesome mogs for sure!
I'm glad I have 95% of these already. Got them when they were current content. All I'm missing is the Evoker and Teegosas staff, and Sylvanas' bow.
When Demon Hunters came out, I did Black Temple 24 hours later and got one of the warglaives, then 2 weeks later I got the other. My friends hated me for years.
Some of my friends still hate me, but that's beside the point.
I remember in Legion getting Taeshalach and everyone in my guild at the time freaking out, I had no idea how rare it actually was. I also got the Blue Scythe, Have yet to get the Mythic version. One day it'll be mine.
18:26 Actually therews a few variations on this that were handed out of rewards for the Summer Flames Event that had us killing an elemental in an outland dungeon. The color is blueish and not "spikey" but essentially the same weapon. IT also has its own chillfrost type effect that drips.
"Frostscythe of Lord Ahune" Slightly different model but yeah... Same Ish.
Ahhh ashkandi. One of my 1st favorite weapons that I've farmed for back in MoP :D whenever I xmog into the t2 judgement set, I also equipped the ashkandi
I’ve done this quest line a number of times now, first was on my DK when those dungeons first came out. I never noticed the difference when doing it in a Blood Elf, I did it with my BE warlock and took the 2 hander so my Felguard could wield it, it looked good in Legion having him smashing other demons with it.
Idk if I should be proud or sad that I have almost all of them, its been a while since ive seen grass...
I loved the Warglaives of Azzinoth so much, I farmed them before you got a transmog options, through the Feat of Strength - which I also did as soon as Black Temple timewalk released. I do hope we get a seperate version that is updated to more modern standards that honors the original design.
12/20 for me, not too bad. Funny story about Taeshalach, I got it on an LFR run on my warrior which i didn't play much but didn't notice i received it until a couple months later i happened to get back on that char and noticed this odd sword in my inventory.
1) Warglaives of Azzinoth
2) Taeshalach
4) Shadowmourne
6) Ashkandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood
7) Sulfuras, Hand of Ragnaros
9) Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest
10) Fandral's Flamescythe
11) Fangs of the Father
12) Thori'dal
13) Thunderfury
15) Val'nyr
18) Quel'Delar
Just FYI I did the Quel’Delar quest in TWW pre patch and was rewarded with all 7 appearances, so for anyone trying you don’t need to buy or farm 7 battered hilts.
I did this quest years ago and was also awarded all appearances
Scythe should be higher, just as rare as aggramar’s sword and better looking than most weapons from vanilla
Back in BC, I (a hunter) was taunted by a guild mate that I would never be able to use Illidan's warglaves. I took that personally. My hunter carries around her pair while my rogue carries my other completed set.
Finally a list that includes items that I own ingame. 😄
Hello, I wanted to clarify that you do not need to do Quel' Delar's quest chain multiple times. I did it on my hunter back in Wrath and at the time I only have the sword. But at some point Bill extended to give all the appearances. I confirmed that my Paladin can use the maces even though a hunter can't learn mace transmogs. I know I could use the 1 and 2 hand swords before the WarWithin Pre-patch
i got taeshalach after 3 runs.. never knew it can drop.. was farming for other t mogs :D
I had both Warglaives drop relatively quickly on my paladin during my long journey to get the shield tmog from Illidan. Took forever for them to drop for my DH and finally got the tmog during the most recent BC timewalking week.
Still remember farming the Fangs of the Father on my rogue back in Cata. Was such a great quest, besides the pickpocket part.
Thank you for making great content! Much love!
😊
I think Hammer of the Naaru belongs on this list. Sure it's really easy to farm, but it's super iconic.
I think that is why is not in the list. Too easy to get. You can also just make a class trial paladin and u'll get it with zero effort. (they start with a lookalike)
@@josejuanandrade4439 Oh. Well, it's still one of my favorite maces.
Correction for Fyralaths Bad Luck Protection, every time you kill Fyrakk get a greater ember item that when used, increases the axes drop chance, however, a ember on mythic will also count for embers on the lower difficulties, but a ember on lfr will only count for lfr, also on heroic and mythic, every boss before fyrakk has a chance to drop a lesser ember, which gives a smaller increase, also once you DO get the axe drop, as soon as you try to equip it the axe will nearly gill you and start a quest chain to allow you to actually wield it which involves acquiring materials that you need to use to allow you to actually equip the axe.
Also for Ulduar leggo, there was actually a time where anyone could loot the ingots despite the on use when you have all 30 being healer class locked, I still have a bunch of them on my warrior to this day because of this lol.
Very nice video!
in the years farming for the old legendaries, i got TF, Hand of Rag, Thoridal and even Teebu's Blazing Longsword, Ironfoe, Rivendare's mouunt, Ashes of Alar all before completing the Warglaives as a set... almost makes me want to come out of retirement just to see my rogue and pally again.
As far as I know, if you complete a quest where you have to choose a reward, you got the other option as appearance in your collection. Its the same with the Quel'delar Questline. I did it once and i have all 7 appearances
Did he say Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of The Windseeker?
Anal Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker
Herp derp
Lol, I got Taeshallach doing my one and only LFR during Legion. The night before BfA with a bunch of hyped up randoms.
Didn’t even know it was that sought after until some guy approached me in Orgrimmar to ask me about it a year later when I used it as a transmog.
Don’t forget that for a while, Thunderfury was still a tank bis weapon in *TBC because of its status effect. It was outstanding at generating and maintaining threat in dungeons and early raids
You mean in TBC. ^^
@@rollingslothmachine3431 yes. Thanks for clarifying lol
Scythe of the Unmaker isn't technically cosmetic only. It has stats as you show and during the BFA pre-patch when they deactivated the artifact weapons, it had almost as good stats as the artifact weapons. I actually used it for a bit as feral druid.
Just for an accurate record: Battered Hilt can drop in all three of the “ICC dungeons: Forge of Souls, Pit of Saron, Halls of Reflection” in the Wrath of the Lich King and the Wrath of the Lich King Classic expansions.
I just now (10.1) completed the Shadowmourne quest line after having it since 3.3. I had this quest line in my quest log for 281 months. I was a holy pally in Wrath so my guild refused to help me obtain it. Secondly I just found out that there was a cheese was to solo the 'Blood Infusion' part of the quest. My pally now wields this axe as part of his transmog and I do not foresee a time when he will not have it as transmog.
Another idea for a video in this vein would be top appearances for the artifact weapons from Legion. Some of them were really neat (demo lock) or just a pain to get (ret pally).
tarecgosa's staff also had a questchain added in dragonflight allowing players to activate the mount form without having to have the staff equipped or a weapon swap macro, so long as the player has the staff and only works for that specific character who has the staff. (Not account wide, sadly)
I have fond memories of healing CMs in MoP with my trusty Val'anyr. When we got serious about it and started selling the boost for the CM-set and tried to squeeze as many runs as we would in the time we all had to play that day I had to self it unfortunately :(
Have Thori'dal, Fandrels, and Dragonwraith, mog all three on their respective toons. Dragonwraith was a fun experience twice- getting it at first, which was amazing, and then the Dragonlands quest allowing me to mount for fast flying.
One of my favorites and very surprised it's not on here, unless you can't get it anymore, The Sword of Wizardry, closest thing to a lightsaber we'll ever get. Fun to make a Jedi Pally.❤
Shadowmourne can be obtained solo (with alts on the same account). The method takes advantage of the persistence of characters both when the game is suddenly stopped and when in combat.
Oh, i remember Nasz'uro as the reason why i back out of WoW again after trying to get it to drop for months and never seeing the gems yet seeing the chat being spammed with its messages of other players. It was like a mockery.
The Royal Sword is the one Turalyon is wielding in-game. It was reforged by the light during the battle with Doomhammer and thus he kept it since then
I started playing wow 2 months before SL expansion release, I was running legacy raids to understand the lore of the game and on my 2nd run I looted the Taeshalach without even noticing. I suddenly got multiple whispers for looting it. So now, as a main warrior, Im still not even concious enough how lucky I was.
I was so happy when they added the new Gorehowl. Garrosh was great but I'm a Grom fan lol sadly been farming Tasa'lok for so long
Knowing I have a bit more than half of this list is nice...I still think it was wild I got the Warglaives on my Demon Hunter during the Legion pre-patch.
Shadowmourne is def, worth doing. I worked on it off and on for several years cuz I didn’t have anyone to help me with the vampire part. But you get a bunch of cool rewards at the end of the quest line.
I just wanna say it took me 4 years of weekly farming to finally get Thunderfury........4 YEEEEAAARRSSS. Man i was so happy when they finially let me Transmog it.
Classic BWL had some of the best looking epic weapons in the entire game and still does. From the untamed blade to the drake talon cleaver and maladath. They withstood the test of time.
Was more excited getting gorehowl in a M+ dungeon than I did getting the fyrakk mount lol
For me, the best weapon appearance in WoW is by far the Crystal Shot Longrifle. No longer obtainable, since it was removed with the WoD Challenge modes, im one of the few lucky ones to have it unlocked (thanks to a friend gifting me a clear run xD), and im all the happier for it.
Quel'Delar was any of the 'new' ICC dungeons. Had mine drop on the very first pull of the very first dungeon under 10 mins from patch going up. I happily say I had the world first of it, since my guild immediately rushed through the quests with me, but no way to factually prove it. I never use the mog, but I still have the sword in the bank of my DK.
I have one of the greatest and most rare legendary items in WoW: Blackhand's Severed Arm!
No, but seriously, due to some glitch, even though I completed the entire questline for the ring, this was mailed to me from the postmaster and now it sits in my bank where I might occasionally /slap people with it in trade chat :D
Also, side note on the warglaives: they will drop for anyone, but only those classes that can equip them will get the achievement. Which was a bullshit move by blizz because I got them on my hunter and got the achievement before they changed it and had the achievement removed from my list.
AND if you equip the glaives when you run the Well of Eternity dungeon, Illidan has some special interaction to it.
You can get the battered hilt for Quel Delar from any of the icc dungeons on heroic, not just Halls of Reflection, and the rewards are equivalent to ICC10n not heroic
Isn't there a low-drop epic version of Gorehowl from the last boss of Karazhan?
Also, I place Thunderfury as a BWL weapon even if the 3 drops you need are from MC because you need Elementium as well hehe.
I would like to add a couple more awesome weapons to the list: the Infinite Hand from Tyr in the Dawn of the Infinite (Hiru is actually wielding it in the Dawn of the Infinite clips) and Gavel of the First Arbiter from the Jailer. They might not be very rare, but cool and quite interesting lore-wise.
My guild and I just did MC two weeks ago in Cata Classic and both the bindings and Eye of Ragt dropped in one run, it was insane lol
Oh I love Reclaimed Ashkandi, Brotherhood of Ashkandur.
The realization that I have Taeshelach and not only do I not play anymore but I didn't even know it had value. I just thought it was a cool flaming greatsword.
Got my Zin Rokh yesterday. 130 Troll solves 8 hours Mantid grind. So freaking lucky. I opened my last Troll arifact Crate. While doing solve 129 and then it showed up. My heart was beating so fast . Then i send it to my Demo Lock so my Felguard can wield it. :D
Thanks for the video, but what about Gorehowl from the last boss of Karazhan in TBC ?
Ah yes, the duel spider talks WoW. Always a good time. Huh, never saw or knew about #2.
