The riddle of the warglaives in WoW Patch 7.2.5 seems never-ending – until now. Blizzard finally provides clarity.
In recent days and weeks, the datamining of the upcoming Patch 7.2.5 for World of Warcraft: Legion has caused quite a commotion among fans. Especially the warglaives of Azzinoth found in the game data have stirred up excitement. These belong to Illidan Stormrage and could be acquired during “The Burning Crusade” from the Black Temple – and this is still possible today.
With Patch 7.2.5, a timewalking version of “The Black Temple” is returning, allowing players at level 110 to revisit the old raid and be rewarded with solid gear for the maximum level.
Game data revealed that demon hunters can acquire a new template for their glaives: the warglaives of Azzinoth.
However, simply “going in and plundering” is not possible this time. Instead, demon hunters must have completed the achievement “Warglaives of Azzinoth” in order to unlock the transmog template in the timewalking version of the temple.
It was previously unclear whether it suffices to have the achievement for the blades on any character or whether it must be specifically on the demon hunter.
Glaives only need to be present on one character
Blizzard has finally clarified and explained via Twitter how the unlocking of transmog works.
As long as the original achievement “Warglaives of Azzinoth” is completed on any character of the account, defeating the timewalking Illidan will grant the template for the demon hunter weapons (regardless of which character then kills the timewalking Illidan).
Those who are among the lucky ones who completed the warglaive set back then can relax until the release of Patch 7.2.5.
What do you think about flying in WoW? We have rather mixed opinions on that…
