These daggers were passed to Akaari, one of Sargeras' most deadly assassins, who wields them to this day.

Aman'Thul the Highfather, leader of the titan Pantheon, entrusted his greatest servant, Highkeeper Ra, with this artifact, which could channel the fury of the storms. Ra used it to bestow life on the titan-forged mogu race, and he wielded it in battle against the Black Empire for years beyond counting. Later lost to Ra, the weapon was ultimately recovered by the August Celestial Xuen, who saw its immense and dangerous power, and chose to safeguard it until someone worthy could take up the weapon in a righteous cause once again.

The scepter swirls with waters from the Well of Eternity prior to its corruption, granting the scepter great magical and restorative powers. The Scepter of Azshara was lost during the War of the Ancients, shortly before Azshara and many of her followers were swallowed by the sea. Taken up by surviving night elves who knew nothing of the power it truly held, it was buried with an unknown priestess in a family tomb in Azsuna, waiting to be discovered by someone that could unlock its true potential.

The first necrolyte to walk the world of Azeroth, Satiel, was given this scythe by the titan Sargeras himself. It grows in power as it draws souls from its victims. The Harvester earned its name as Satiel methodically drained all life from the hapless inhabitants of Deadwind Pass, creating a potent magical nexus there in the process. Hunting down Satiel, the Guardian of Tirisfal turned the scythe on her, sending her soul to join those of her victims. Eventually the Dark Riders recovered the weapon and secreted it beneath the tower of Karazhan.

Driven by ambition, he reached into the Void and was answered with knowledge of dark creatures unlike any the eredar had seen before. Thal’kiel’s apprentice, Archimonde, discovered his master’s dark pact and revealed it to Thal'kiel's fellow rulers, who banded together to strike Thal'kiel down. After his defeat, they had his skull gilded and placed on display as a warning. Today the dreadlord Mephistroth uses it to enhance his ability to summon and command demon armies for the Legion.

Created through incredible effort by hundreds of Sargeras' servants, this scepter can rip open dimensional gateways between worlds. It was entombed beneath the sea for centuries, then used by the orc shaman Ner'zhul to open the portals that tore the world of Draenor apart, leaving behind the shattered realm of Outland. The scepter was finally secured by the elite magi of the Kirin Tor. Unable to destroy it, they hid it away in a magically protected chamber and put it under eternal watch to prevent it from ever being used again.

He forged this pair of swords for the mightiest of his storm-forged Valarjar, but Helya stole the swords and infused them with a portion of her rage. She then gave them to her own champion, who used them to hunt the greatest of heroes and drag their souls away to serve in Helheim. These swords stir their owner into unrelenting and punishing attacks that overcome a target's defenses and leave no opening for counterattacks.

Artifact Power items are acquired through many activities in Legion, including:

Major plot quests/World quests

Emissary caches (after completing 4 World quests)

Treasure chests

Queuing for random Normal or Heroic dungeons

Drops from Dungeon Bosses, Raid Bosses and Rare spawns

Order Hall missions

Outdoor objectives

Participating in Battlegrounds

Arena matches

Here is a list of items that grant Artifact PowerCURRENTLY EQUIPPED

If you want to apply it to a weapon you have in your bag (for a different spec), you must equip that weapon FIRST, then use the Artifact Power item!

Artifact Power is tied to each weapon you have separately. Therefore, if you have managed to acquire X amount of Artifact Power on one weapon, if you switch to your offspec weapon, this Artifact Power will not carry over (it will have a separate pool of Artifact Power).

For the purposes of Artifact Power, two-part Artifact Weapons (e.g. 2 Swords – + , a Shield/Sword – + , an Off-hand/Dagger – + ) count as a single Artifact.

Essentially, you do not have to invest double the Artifact Power as a Two-handed weapon class, and you don’t have to unlock each part separately.

Artifact Knowledge

Return to Top

extra spellArtifact Trait DatabaseLegion Artifact Weapon CalculatorUnlocking Traits

Traits are, for the most part, passive abilities which enhance your spec's abilities (for example increase the damage of Ability X by a certain amount, or increase the proc chance of Abilty Y by a certain amount).

To see your Artifact Trait tree, simply Shift-Right Click on your artifact weapon.

Note that selecting new traits can ONLY be done at your Artifact Forge in your Order Hall.

Relics will add "bonus" ranks to certain Artifact Traits; thus a trait can be boosted to a maximum of 7 ranks on an empowered weapon (if all 3 relics are tailored to a single Trait - see "Artifact Relics" below). The extra ranks granted by a relic do not require Artifact Power to unlock.

Note that your free "Artifact Ability" (as described above) is not counted amongst the 34 points that you get to spend.

See below for an example of an Artifact Trait tree.

Resetting Traits

You can respec/refund your traits (wipe them and reassign them from scratch) at a cost.

Respeccing costs the same amount of Artifact Power as the next point in your Artifact Trait tree would cost.

For example, if you had spent 18 points into your Artifact Traits and wanted to reset them and reassign them, you would have to invest the Artifact Power that would have been required for the 19th Artifact Trait point (based on the chart below, 24000 Artifact Power).

Doing this would "refund" 18 points worth of Artifact Power and allow you to spend all of it on 18 Traits of your choosing.
Because the cost of "respeccing" your Artifact Weapon is so high, it is not typically worthwhile to do so - the benefit is likely to be marginal. Additionally, you will eventually unlock every Artifact Trait on your weapon - the path you take to do so will not make a significant difference in your performance.

To refund your traits, speak to the NPC in your Order Hall that is standing near your Artifact Forge.

Trait Perks

Each trait you have purchased increases your Stamina +/- Damage Dealt.

Healer and Tank Specs gain Stamina and Damage Dealt for every trait unlocked.
DPS Specs gain only Stamina for every trait unlocked.

Trait Costs

Below is a chart outlining the Artifact Power (AP) cost for each point that you unlock in your Artifact Trait tree. Note that the cost for each point rises exponentially (particularly after the 13th trait) as you unlock more.

Ion alluded to some of this in his post last week, but essentially the goal here is to address what we believe to be the core of the issue with the 7.0 final traits: the large gap in player power it created between players who spent a lot of time farming AP and those who spent their time on other endeavors. To that end, there's four key changes:

#1: The individual ranks are less impactful. This was honestly one of the biggest issues with the 7.0 design. Grinding out a couple million Artifact Power for a 0.5% raw damage increase was just too lucrative compared to other methods of endgame progression - even eclipsing gear for some players. The goal for the new 7.2 design is that the next rank is still an increase, and you won't turn it down, but it's not your primary focus.

#2: The rate at which the cost for the next rank increases is higher. In the 7.0 design, someone who farmed twice as much AP as you had roughly twice as many ranks as you. While rewarding the extra effort isn't a bad thing, it doesn't need to be nearly that rewarding. By making each rank's cost increase exponentially, we can help ensure that you're never too far behind even if you aren't spending as much time farming AP. It also means that, as Artifact Knowledge increases, it'll be easier for alts or newer players to catch up.

As a quick aside, to put some extra context on both of those changes: we always want Artifact Power to be of at least some value to you. It's fine to reach a point where you're not going out of your way to earn it, but it's purpose is to be a fairly reliable form of progression. If you spend an evening raiding, or run a few dungeons, or do some PvP, but don't get any gear upgrades, you should still be able to say "at least I earned some Artifact Power" with some level of satisfaction.

Anyway, key change #3: The new trait gives a primary stat bonus instead of a percentage-based increase. With the 7.0 design, as your gear improved, so did the total benefit you were getting from your final trait. Changing to a primary stat bonus means it's giving roughly the same benefit to someone at ilevel 900 as it does to someone at 850. Again, the goal here is to reduce the overall power gap.

And finally, #4: It's a proc. I know anything that involves RNG is often controversial, but this is, in my opinion, a great example of where it's extremely useful. This is for two reasons.

First, it kind of muddies the waters a bit. When you wipe on a boss at 1%, or just barely miss a kill window, it can be easy to say "if Todd was doing 2% more damage we'd have won." But when it's a proc, you can't actually be that sure. Maybe Todd needs more AP, or maybe he just got unlucky with procs. Maybe the wipe wasn't Todd's fault at all. Maybe you should be a little nicer to Todd.

Second (and more importantly), it allows for player skill to play more of a factor. If you're the sort of player who can pay attention to procs and adjust your rotation on the fly (say, a healer who chooses to use cheaper spells while it's active, or a damage-dealer who saves a charge of their hardest-hitting ability), you're going to get more value out of the new trait than someone who ignores it.

I've seen some initial feedback that indicates some specs are likely to benefit from these more than others - to some degree that's expected, but specific feedback on which specs those are and why is very helpful. We're still actively tuning and tweaking things, so please keep that feedback coming.

More information on Relics

Your Artifact Weapon has a total of 3 Relic slots on it.

2 slots are available immediately upon getting your Artifact Weapon.

1 slot is locked initially, and unlocks when your character reaches level 110.

The 10 different types of relics are Arcane, Blood, Fel, Fire, Frost, Holy, Iron, Life, Shadow and Storm.

Not all specs can benefit from a particular relic - it will depend on what relic slots your Artifact Weapon has.

If a quest offers an uncommon or rare relic, it has the chance of being randomly upgraded to a higher quality such as uncommon upgrading to rare.

Some of these BoE relics will vary in item level (based on the level of the character that they drop for)

For example can be found on the Auction House with item levels that vary between 670 and 780.

The level requirement will vary as well - an item level 670 that dropped for a level 100 character will have a level 100+ requirement, while an item level 731 that drops for a level 105 character can only be used by level 105+ characters.

Gems: Artifact Relic

That being said, many World Quests will reward relics that are attuned to weapons for other specs on your character (whether or not you play those specs!).

Relic Effect #1 - Item Level Boosts

Every relic has an item level. These currently will range from 670 to 955.

The higher the item level of the relic, the more it boosts the item level of your Artifact Weapon.

Increasing the item level of your Artifact Weapon will increased the primary and secondary stats it grants.

For example an item level 850 (Raid Drop) will boost your Artifact Weapon by +43 item levels, while an item level 805 Crafted will boost your Artifact Weapon by +31 item levels.

Relics that drop from bosses (raid, dungeon, world) can be randomly upgraded in +5 item level increments when they drop. As of Patch 7.3, the current maximum item level that these Relics can be upgraded to is 955.

Any item upgraded this way by 5-10 item levels will be designated "Warforged".

Any item upgraded by 15 or more item levels will be designated "Titanforged".

Relic Effect #2 - Bonus Artifact Trait Ranks

Each relic boosts a specific trait. You can see this on Wowhead by going to the "Improves" tab on Relic pages or selecting "Choose a Spec."

If you want to target a specific Trait to boost, you will need to target specific relics.

For example, a Windwalker wanting to boost the Artifact Trait could use the Storm relics (Quest Reward), (Dungeon Boss Drop), or (Raid Boss Drop). On the other hand, , while also being a Storm relic, boosts - a completely different Trait.

Return to Top

Tier 1: Grants a +5 item level boost to your artifact weapon (per relic slot, for a total of +15 item levels)

Tier 2: Grants you the choice between a randomly selected Light or Shadow ability

Tier 3: Grants you choices for a second Artifact Trait to boost for the relic (thus the relic will boost a total of two separate Artifact Traits once this is unlocked)

attuned to your weapon or socketed

Interacting with the Netherlight Crucible is the only way to see what Tier 2 and Tier 3 abilities will be rolled by a particular relic; therefore you cannot know ahead of time or in the middle of a dungeon, raid, etc.

A given relic will randomly roll a particular combination of abilities, and these are permanent for that relic. If you were to obtain the same relic of the same item level from a different source (e.g. get the same relic to drop from two weeks in a row) that would generate a completely different random combination of Tier 2 and Tier 3 abilities when attuned/socketed.

Once you select an ability from Tier 2 and Tier 3 in the crucible, the decision is final - there is no way to reset your choices!

The path you take in your ability tree matters! Once a Tier 2 trait is selected, it limits you to only two choices for the Tier 3 trait - i.e. if there is a particular trait you really want in Tier 3, that will dictate what you choose in Tier 2.

In the example listed below with the Elemental Shaman relic, selecting would allow the choice of or in Tier 3, while selecting would only open up and as options in Tier 3.

Choosing (Haste increased by 500. Movement speed increased by 500.) on two relics would double the effect to 1000 Haste and 1000 Speed.

Choosing (Your spells and abilities have the chance to cause Refractive Shell, absorbing 300,000 damage. Lasts 10 sec.) on all three relics would triple the absorb to 900,000 damage for 10 seconds.

What is relic "attunement"?

The Netherlight Crucible has a 4th slot for attunement of relics. This slot is like a "preview" of sorts - placing a relic there will randomly generate Tier 2 and Tier 3 abilities for that relic.

Important: This process binds the relic to you! Therefore you cannot check what abilities are generated and then decide to trade the relic to another person.

Attunement is a permanent process - the randomly generated traits WILL NOT change for that given relic, whether or not you socket it.

This option simply gives you the ability to see what traits are generated in Tier 2 and Tier 3, BEFORE you decide to replace a currently socketed relic.

Attuning a relic for one spec does not prevent you from using it on other specs. If you don't like the Tier 3 that were rolled on the Crucible and think it may be useful on an alternate spec, you can switch specs and attune the relic to that spec to see the options it provides (assuming that spec can use that type of relic, of course).

Attuning a relic to an alternate spec will re-roll completely new Tier 3 traits, but the Tier 2 options will remain THE SAME.

EACH relic slot will have a tree that consists of three tiers of abilities.

You must complete the Argus storyline quests in Krokuun (in particular ) and Mac'Aree (specifically ) to unlock the Netherlight Crucible.

The above zones/questlines are available through Weeks 1 and 2 of Patch 7.3, and thus the Netherlight Crucible can only be fully unlocked starting Week 3 (September 12, 2017 onward)

Sources:Text, VideoQ: Is the Netherlight Crucible supposed to be fully RNG on Tier 2 and Tier 3?
A: The artifact traits in your weapon have always been a steady form of progression. However, the relics you slot in your weapon is subject to RNG -- the loot might not drop or other factors.

Well what's a problem with relics? Relics point to a specific index and for each spec that can use that relic, that specific index will map to a specific trait. If a holy relic is a bad trait for one spec and they wanted to change it, that would change the relic for all the other specs that could use it, because of the way the index works.

They wanted to fix that with a system that gave relics a random second trait in 7.2, but it was pulled at the last second. This was supposed to help classes that were searching for specific relics but was determined to be too random. The Netherlight Crucible is slightly different; while it has some randomness, players will not be able to choose their worst trait because they simply won't pick it.

Q: Why is the Netherlight Crucible good, but Reforging bad?
A: Reforging wasn't great because of hit and expertise management -- e.g. when you got a ring and had to reforge 10 other items because of it. They don't think it was an interesting system, since if an item didn't have your best two stats, you simply just reforged to your best stats. In some cases, it was hard to evaluate upgrades as well.

Q: How much of the new Artifact Power will work in 7.3 PvP?
A: The first trait from the Netherlight Crucible, Netherlight Fortification, on each relic will work in PvP, but that only equates to a fraction of a percent upgrade since it applies before the scaling. The remaining traits will not work in rated PvP.

Blizzard

Hey guys!

So, after yesterday's Q&A, it's become apparent that there's still some confusion about the Netherlight Crucible and how it works. We've been keeping an eye on your discussions about the topic, and wanted to give some explanations where we can, as well as open up a thread for any additional questions you may have.

Q: How do the Relic "talents" unlock?

A: As your Artifact increases in level (by spending Artifact Power), your Relic slots will level up as well. When you first unlock the Crucible, you'll have access to the first additional trait (a +5 increase to your Artifact's item level) in each slot. The second row unlocks at Artifact level 60, 63, and 66 (for the left, center, and right Relic slots respectively), and the third and final row unlocks at Artifact level 69, 72, and 75. This should all be pretty apparent when you look at those slots in-game, but may not be showing clearly via datamined info.

Q: What did you mean by "it can't double roll a trait"?

A: Just that you will never be able to upgrade a Relic to increase the same Artifact trait twice. If your Relic already has a bonus rank of Wrath of the Ashbringer on it, that trait will not be one of the three options presented in the bottom row of the Crucible's upgrade tree.

In other words, there's no risk of having your Wrath of the Ashbringer relic be "ruined" by not rolling a second bonus to Wrath of the Ashbringer, because that could never have happened in the first place. However, if you get a relic without Wrath of the Ashbringer, there's now a chance that it'll gain it from the Crucible.

Additionally, those three options will always be unique; it won't, for example, give you the "choice" between Deflection, Deflection, or Deflection. Aside from making sure you always have options, this means that your odds of having your favorite trait appear on a Relic you'd otherwise have discarded are actually pretty decent.

Q: How do the ranks for the first two rows work?

A: There are no such ranks. We think this is coming from some confusion about how the Netherlight Crucible is showing up in datamining, versus how it actually operates in-game. Once you've unlocked a row in the Crucible, you just select the option you like, and that's it - there's no additional leveling up of those options beyond that.

For those peeking into the data (or anyone else who might be curious): this is because of how we built the system to allow the unlockable effects to stack between each relic. It's just a subtle behind-the-scenes optimization on our end.

Hopefully that will help clear the air about how the Netherlight Crucible works, but we're sure you have more questions, so ask away and we'll do our best to answer what we can! We'll aim to provide an update sometime next week. Thanks!
TLDR:

Before the patch, if you get a relic that doesn't have the trait you want, you throw it away.

After the patch, if you get a relic that doesn't have the trait you want, you can plug it into the Netherlight Crucible and maybe get it anyway.

That's about all there is to it!

Blizzard

Okay, here's a first pass at some answers. Thanks for all the discussion so far.

Q: Why are you adding this system? What’s with the RNG?

A: The Netherlight Crucible (aside from being an important part of the 7.3 storyline) is intended to help with an issue with Relic availability that players have been reporting for some time now. As Ion explained during our last Q&A, there are technical issues with the way Relics were built that limit which bonus traits can be available from raids. This has caused a number of raiders to feel as though their best bet is to run Mythic Keystone dungeons constantly in the hopes of having a Relic with their ideal bonus trait drop (and Titanforge for a high item level).

Those who were following development of Patch 7.2 may recall an earlier take on an improvement for this issue, where we experimented with adding a single, randomized second bonus trait to Relics. Ultimately, we decided that was the wrong approach, and wanted a system that put a little more control in players’ hands. So, while the Netherlight Crucible does still have an element of randomness, it presents you with several options to choose from.

To be clear: we believe that having some element of randomness is important. Our goal was not to simply allow players to choose the precise bonus traits they wanted (you already do that, more or less, when spending Artifact Power). We still want there to be those exciting moments where a Relic gives you a great outcome. The Netherlight Crucible is intended to make Relics more valuable on average, not to make all Relics be equal value.

Q: Will I be able to trade Relics with other players to see who gets the best options at the Crucible?

A: No. Previewing a Relic at the Netherlight Crucible will bind it to your character and remove the ability to trade it. This is because those trait options don’t actually exist on the Relic until you attune it to the Crucible, in a process similar to enchanting a piece of gear. It also prevents raid teams from feeling like they need to send everyone who might be interested in a Relic back to the Vindicaar before continuing.

Q: Will the Netherlight Crucible work on Relics acquired prior to 7.3 release?

A: Yes. However, keep in mind that it will take some time (likely several weeks) to unlock the later stages of the Netherlight Crucible, where the additional bonus traits come in. We don’t expect that stockpiling Relics prior to 7.3 will give any real advantage in practice.

Q: Doesn’t this just mean I’ll want my best two traits on each Relic now?

A: For the hardcore min/maxer, yes, there will still be a “best” outcome for your Relic configuration. However, there are now more Relics that can achieve that state (as Relics with your second-best trait can now roll your best trait at the Crucible), and you’ll encounter fewer “bad” Relics along the way.

Q: Why do I have to go back to the Netherlight Crucible to upgrade my Relic? Didn’t you want to get away from mechanics like that?

A: Players often compare this to the old Reforging system, and our dislike of having to visit a vendor after each and every upgrade. That hasn’t changed. The Netherlight Crucible only affects Relics – you won’t need to visit the Crucible every time you pick up a new pair of boots.

Hotfixes:

Blizzard

We’ve made a final tuning pass on the Netherlight Crucible to ensure that its powers behave more like the trinkets that you know and love.

In general, these changes are intended to bring the value of the various powers closer together, and ensure they’re desirable choices for players. We’ve loosened the restrictions these powers had on the PTR, so effects that previously did not take your character’s modifiers into account are now improved by things like Haste and Critical Strike, and relevant buffs or debuffs that are part of your class. We also updated numerical tuning to take those changes into account.

Tuning Changes:
Master of Shadows – Value reduced to 500.
Murderous Intent – Value reduced to 1500.
Dark Sorrows – Proc rate increased by Haste.
Torment the Weak – Value reduced to 80,000. Damage over Time effect now increased by haste and can crit.
Chaotic Darkness – Proc rate increased by Haste.
Shadowbind – Value increased to 200,000. Proc rate increased by haste.

Light Speed – Value reduced to 500.
Shocklight – Value reduced to 1500.
Secure in the Light – Value increased to 135,000. Proc rate increased by haste.
Infusion of Light - Value reduced to 101,000. Proc rate increased by haste.
Light's Embrace – Value increased to 45,500. Proc rate increased by haste.
Refractive Shell – Value increased to 300,000. Proc rate increased by haste.

The above all differ from what you may have seen on the PTR, and we appreciate the time and effort that testers put into providing the feedback we received.

Return to Top

Increasing Artifact Knowledge only becomes an option at level 110. As of Patch 7.3, reaching 110 will instantly put you at Artifact Knowledge Level 41.

If you level a character to 110 currently, it will instantly hit whatever Artifact Knowledge level all other characters have (e.g. if all other 110s are at Artifact Knowledge level 45, all newly created characters instantly get upgraded to this level).

The Artifact Knowledge cap of 55 will be reached on the week of December 5, 2017 (barring any unforeseen delays).

For the above reasons, it is not worthwhile to stockpile Artifact Power items, hoping to use them after you level Artifact Knowledge.

Artifact Knowledge Catch-Up

New players can quickly reach Artifact Knowledge Level 15 via the repeatable quest . This requires you to turn in 500 to instantly obtain 1 . This can be done over and over without requiring any research time.

Beyond Artifact Knowledge Level 15, this quest will not grant you any further .
If you have a character with high Artifact Knowledge, you can send compendiums to your alts to instantly boost them to set Artifact Knowledge levels. This is faster and cheaper than obtaining individual .

The compendiums can be purchased in your Order Hall for 1000 . They are account-bound, and can thus be mailed to alts.

Wowhead Artifact Weapon CalculatorFurther Notes:Certain weapon appearances change the type of a weapon (e.g. the Titan's Reach Hidden Artifact appearance for changes it from a Gun to a Bow)
At launch, there will be 5 skins:

Classic Skin: Order Hall related quests
Upgraded Skin: Order Hall, Artifact, and Archaeology activities
Valorous Skin: PvE-related progression
War-Torn Skin: PvP-related progression (Prestige)
Hidden Skin: Acquisition will vary by spec
“Challenge Weapon Appearance”Video

For example, for the Valorous appearance, you must complete the “Balance of Power” questline to unlock the main tint before other tints will be obtainable. Getting the achievement will not provide you a new tint/appearance until you have completed “Balance of Power”.

The exception to this rule is for , which is an Account-wide achievement, and thus unlocks this tint for ALL characters on your account. Of course, as mentioned above, this tint will not be available until you unlock the Upgraded appearance first (Class Order Hall Campaign)

Art Interview on AppearancesClick here for full interview
Can you tell us about Artifact design? Style, variations, colors?
Similar to Order Halls, we wanted to hit the tone for the class and spec. A few were easy because they were established, but the new ones were more difficult since they weren't established. We had to come up with something that felt lore-comparable and helped answer the questions: what is the core class fantasy? What weapon feels like what you want your character to feel like? I play a rogue, so I used a lot of personal experience to get the feeling of what a rogue would want to pick up in their hand to use. Then with spec differentiation in the weapons we went on with further honing into that class fantasy.

What was it like to create a weapon from scratch when there's some well-known artifacts like Doomhammer and Ashbringer?
We start with a base artifact level, i.e. Ashbringer - this is what the player expectation is for an epic level artifact weapon. Using that as a reference, all weapons should feel comparable next to each other. The problem with that is there is no established lore for the new ones, which makes them harder to identify with. So the new weapons had to look above and beyond to feel equal to Ashbringer. The base visual levels for the new weapons were a bit more complicated than the established weapons to make them feel equally epic.

Another difficulty was Shaman. Doomhammer was difficult because it didn't feel right seeing two Doomhammers (as dual wield). A solution was to make one a magical magma hunter to avoid breaking fantasy and make it seem like we're just giving Doomhammers away.

We know classes are going to feel unique with artifacts - how well have you accomplished this and making each spec feel unique visually?
We are trying to make this a balance and it will always develop along with characters - artifacts being there early on took us into a more streamlined weapon design process. There are usually 550-750+ weapons, this time 240....so we had more time to make them more epic.

As we worked on armor sets, we used visual decisions from artifacts to layer them on top of armor sets. There are not spec-specific armor sets but we looked at all the artifacts from one class to utilize visual elements on armor. Provides a more cohesive vision.

With regards to Hidden Appearances, some of the acquisition sources for these are listed in the tabs below.

For weapon appearances that are drops, current spec or loot specialization doesn’t matter when farming these (i.e. a Protection appearance item can drop while your loot specialization is Retribution).

Most Hidden Artifact Appearance items that are rare drops have bad luck protection implemented (as of Patch 7.1.5)

This means each time that the item does not drop for you, your chances of obtaining it go up progressively.

This means that every time you do not get the drop needed, your chances for obtaining it will go up progressively.

World Bosses

These appearances are 100% guaranteed drops for any player of the appropriate class, regardless of their spec or loot specialization.
Unlike standard loot from World Bosses that appears in your bags, these appearances must be manually looted from the corpse of the boss.
Raid Bosses

These appearances are not guaranteed drops.
The item has a chance to drop if there are ANY members of the raid who are the appropriate class, regardless of their spec or loot specialization.
These items drop on LFR, Normal, Heroic or Mythic difficulties.
If the loot setting is Master Loot, the item acts like any other loot drop – the Master Looter determines who to assign the item to.
If the loot setting is Personal Loot, they have a chance to be looted from the boss like any other gear and can drop for ANY spec of the appropriate class.
Regardless of loot settings, (Master Loot or Personal Loot) these items can be traded to other members of the raid for up to 2 hours after it is obtained.
Dungeon Bosses

These appearances/components are not guaranteed drops.
The item has a chance to drop if there are ANY members of the party who are the appropriate class, regardless of their spec or loot specialization.
These items drop in Normal, Heroic, Mythic, and Mythic+ difficulties.
If it drops, the item can be traded to another member in your party of the appropriate spec.

Each scenario involves defeating a boss/minions or protecting NPCs, depending on spec.Mage Tower

Recovering Light’s Heart

ADVISE AGAINSTnothing to do with the questinstead

Search the crash site - head to , which is due east of the island. Swim down to find the area (Looks like a swirly spot in a crevice on the ocean floor)*

Investigate the Cave - The cave entrance is at .*

Mysterious Lightbound Object - kill in the cave, and loot .

*Khadgar

Step 1 is to find the Prophet Velen in the Vault of the Lights. Just make your way to the area marked on the map, killing demons on the way. If you happen to aggro a bunch, just kite them to Velen, as they will be incinerated by the dome of light surrounding him.

Step 2 involves A) Rescuing 12 Terrified Exodar Citizens and B) Destroying 8 Fel Portals.

All of the portals are marked on the map, and there are many more portals than you will need scattered through the Exodar.
When doing this step, its best to skirt your way around edges of the rooms. If you stand in the middle of pathways, the stream of demons running towards Velen can easily aggro and overwhelm you! Find corners and alcoves that avoid the steady stream of mobs that spawn.
Beware of patrols, as there are groups of demons all over the place and its easy to get overrun.
s are typically around the edges of rooms, corners, behind structures/boxes, in covered rooms, etc.

Some are children, so are smaller and easy to miss
They are marked on your minimap, so this a great way to track them down
Extra (Optional) Stuff:

BONUS QUEST: There is an extra quest available from at 44.8, 9.4 in the Crystal Hall. This grants some gear and XP; it involves surviving 3 waves of demons, then killing after these waves. As a DPS class doing this, it was quite a challenge! Mobs spawn frequently, and you must rely on the NPCs to help (i.e. stay near them). will also heal you.

When you are to face , I would suggest saving all of your DPS cooldowns (or healing, for that matter) for this encounter. The NPCs tank him, so dying is not a concern; rather, if this takes to long, Nobundo will bite the dust and this quest will fail!
If you want to complete this optional quest, you MUST pick it up before completing the Step 2 objectives (Portals and Terrified Citizens) or else it will not be available!
There is an (optional) bonus objective active during the scenario (you'll see the objective progress bar). Completing it by killing demons will net you some gold and experience.
A rare spawn NPC () was found at in the Trader's Tier. He is surrounded by Felhounds, which can be killed in smaller groups to avoid being overwhelmed.

He drops and
Step 3 is to return to Velen, and allow him to examine the
Step 4 is to escort Velen to the Seat of the Naaru
Step 5 involves defeating . There is a very interesting reveal that occurs through this - I won't say what it is though!

Other commenters stated that you can tag and let the NPCs kill him, but doesn't appear to work anymore - you have to fight him yourself. That being said, it seems they may have made this encounter more manageable, as the NPCs do help, and will heal you.
After this, simply use to return to Dalaran.

The first thing you'll need to do is obtain "" from a random drop – I assume it comes from guards, because that's where I got mine. No idea if that's the case.

*Has been confirmed to drop from a wide variety of mobs in (see this thread), and is most likely a zone-wide random drop*

Once you have that, you'll notice the gem has "C.T." engraved on it. This stands for "" If you go into the Felsoul Hold crater area in , there's a path visible on the map that runs west. Go up the incline and double-jump/glide along the rocks to get to the top of the cliffside. Follow it around to a large tree and you'll find , a Blood Elf Demon Hunter. She's by a large tree, some bird/porcupine mobs just before her.

If you show her the charm, her immediate reaction is to assume you're a thief and kick you off the side of the cliff - ya know, as you do. Her kick will send you straight at , a large felbat with around 10 million health. You may've noticed him floating around in the general questing area. There's "violent winds" around him which will keep you aloft. You basically can "swim" in the spiral around him, but can't go too high or low or else you will drop out of the area and will reset (you can go to Candrael to continue attempting it). After damaging him for a little bit, will fling you off in a direction. You basically need to stay afloat using and fall back on top of him to get kicked up by his winds again.

From my attempts (took around 5-10 to realize this was a DH only encounter and I had to be creative) it seems like you need to cancel once you get back to his winds or it'll be buggy and let you fall right through. He'll fling you around again randomly even when you get back into his "bubble" of wind.

Kill him and you get the . The good news is, it's cool. The bad news is, the graphic is bugged at the moment. I have a few 20 yard long polygons jutting out of me at the moment. Can't post any pictures.
