A warlock in World of Warcraft apparently places maximum value on exclusivity and equips his demon just as well as himself.
Season 4 in World of Warcraft Shadowlands works a bit differently than previous seasons. Everything goes a little faster, the gear can be rapidly upgraded and this time loot can even be specifically purchased with a new raid currency.
Some players use this to equip not only themselves but also their companions in particularly impressive ways – such as their felguard with the powerful weapon of the Jailor.
What kind of weapon is that? It is the “Hammer of the First Judge.” This is a mace with a unique “Use” effect that extracts the soul of the target. Subsequently, a small soul fragment appears that must be killed to gain a powerful buff for 60 seconds.
In most guides, this weapon is currently the best that a melee fighter can equip – not to mention that the effect is just cool.
Why is it so popular right now? Like most other weapons and trinkets, raid loot in Season 4 of Shadowlands can be specifically purchased if you have the necessary dinars. You basically earn these “on the side” by simply killing the current raid bosses. This way, characters can specifically work towards items if they had bad luck with drops.
This also explains why the warlock got this weapon at all. If this weapon were to drop normally in the raid, several melee fighters would surely fight over it. However, through the dinar system, characters can buy not only weapons and equipment that are meaningful for their own characters, but also weapons that they cannot use – like the Hammer of the First Judge.
Why does the felguard carry this weapon? A glyph can activate that the felguard equips a random weapon from the warlock’s inventory upon summoning. While this may look stylish, it has no effect at all…
…except that some warrior or death knight might now roll up crying in front of this demon.
The glyph “Felguard” allows the guard to equip a random two-handed weapon from the warlock’s inventory, making it lucrative for warlocks to keep two-handed weapons in their inventory to customize the demon a bit.
At the next demon meeting, the felguard may well show off a little.
What have you bought with the strange dinars, or have you not earned them yet?
