It is well known that basilisks have increased resistance to magic. Given the name "chromatic" (imo relates to chromatic drakes, which have the same ability), everyone would guess that this sword drops from either a basilisk or a chromatic(purple) drake. The sword also has a nice colorful glow to emphasize on the fact that is grants resistances to ALL schools of magic.

It's worth pointing out that glow is new (and I mean recently). I'd like to know how that went down.

got 1 for my retri-Pally.
bit of an accident, really; it was the only reasonable priced sword on her level, so i bought it.
just for levelling of the 2H sword skill, cause I too prefer a big 2h axe or better a 2H mace, ofcourse.
the fun part: when fighting and watching her from behind and slightly from above -the regular camera angle- it looks like she's using a feather duster!
that dumb sword has EXACTLY the same colors as one of those cheapo feather dusters

Greetings,
Thanks for taking the time to contact the Game Master department! There is no indication from any source available to the Game Master staff at this time that the Chromatic Sword was removed from the game. So as far as the Game Master staff is able to verify, for all intents and purposes, the Chromatic Sword is still obtainable. I apologize in advance if any new information surfaces that suggests otherwise and for any confusion there may have been regarding your question.
May your loot be EPIC and rolls high!

It pains me to see that there is a disenchant panel for this sword.
Before cata it was rare and had one of the most amazing glows in game. Once finished, bank it don't disenchant it.
Cata and onwards it's an incredibly rare sword with a unique look. Transmog/Sell for high prices don't disenchant it.
Edit: Dropped 2 lesser nether essences.

After I found out about this sword from Mogit, I went ahead and tried to camp it, spent around 2 days before I checked comments here and realised it's most likely removed from the loot list. While I was camping it one showed up on the AH for a 35k buyout... which I let it go as I thought I could camp it myself... luckily the same one showed up again a few days after I found out about the likely removal and immediately grabbed it.
Still couldn't decide which char to put it on though. Anyone know if weapon enchants show up on the model?

I would like to add if you are going to go for this sword(and alliance), the mob,
Scale Belly
, is phased out after you complete the quest,
Bwemba's Sprit
. I went to farm this at Crystalvein Mine after I had accepted the quest and every mod had disappeared, after completion of the quest they did not return. The area was simply devoid of any life. Will update when my ticket is answered to see if this is working as intended.
Until then...
Update: Working as intended :(

You are receiving this message in response to the help petition which you submitted regarding the Chromatic Sword.
This is still in game and does drop from Scale Belly, however it is a very low drop chance, so it may take quite a while to see it!
We wish you good luck in your hunt for it! :)

If you really want this sword, there are a few options:
1) Be one of those insanely lucky people for whom it drops immediately or who find it for 10g on the AH because someone didn't know what they had (yes, it happens).
2) Start a number of DKs or level up lowbie toons on several other realms and plant them at Scale Belly's spawnpoint and make a point of logging onto them all a couple of times a day for the sole purpose of killing Scale Belly, with the intent that if the sword drops on one of them, you'll do a server transfer to get it where it belongs.
3) Keep tabs on the
The Undermine Journal
to see which auction houses have the Chromatic Sword and for which price - then, if desired, you can do a server transfer to grab the sword and wait a few days before heading back to your home server. (US server folk can also gnash their teeth over the insanely low prices - like 175g - that the European servers often seem to have for the sword, which cannot be obtained due to the fact that we can't transfer from US to EU.)
I did option 2 for about half a year before I decided to bite the bullet and go for option 3 when I saw it listed for 10k through the Undermine Journal. Ironically enough, it was on a server where I've been regularly killing Scale Belly, and had noticed that I'd missed a Scale Belly spawn the day the sword was posted on the AH. (That's something that'll make your head explode if you let yourself dwell on it. :P) Waiting for the transfer to go through was pretty nervewracking as I didn't want to arrive at the destination server to find that the sword had been sold a few minutes ago, but it worked, and I got it. I'll post a new screenshot when I get my Chromatic Sword courier toon back onto the home server.
For the latter options, it all comes down to whether you want the sword badly enough to pay real money vs having your hopes crushed time and time again every day. For me, I gave it a good try with my Scale Belly Slaying Legion, but the RNG god was just not in my favor. As goblins are so fond of saying, "time is money, friend," and by this point, the money was worth the time I'd spent and would be spending. Since the sword would not come to me, I opted for using the Undermine Journal to go where the sword was.
Good luck to all collectors - I hope you get the rainbow sword of your dreams as well! :)

As I've been farming this sword for quite a while now and have not seen anyone claiming on wowhead that they have found it recently either (most have just said that they have it), i decided to make a ticket and ask if there's any updated info about the sword. Sadly, in the reply i got some bad news, and here's the reply so you can read it yourself:
Hey Eukanaria,
Thank you for contacting our support here at Blizzard :) I'm sorry you've had to wait for a response.
After looking through things it appears that there is not an item simply called "Chromatic Sword" in the game anymore. However there is a close relative that drops from Chromaggus. Take a look at the loot table for Chromaggus on wowhead and see if that sword with a similar name takes your fancy instead :)
Should you have any other issues or questions to ask then please do not hesitate to contact us again.
Thank you again for getting in contact with us and I hope you have many epic adventures :D
Best wishes
Game Master Frelnaars

So it seems to have been removed from the game. I really hope it might reappear in the future though, or that some other weapon might get it's glow.

To give you an idea of just how rare this sword is, here's a list of rare items currently available in Auction House's worldwide (stats from TUJ):
Blade of Wizardry
- 646 worldwide.
Teebu's Blazing Longsword
- 129 worldwide.
Blade of Hanna
- 61 worldwide.
Shadowfang
- 8 worldwide.
Chromatic Sword
-
6 worldwide.
Now compare that to "rare" items that go for 200k+
Reins of the Spectral Tiger
- 113 worldwide.
Magic Rooster Egg
- 112 worldwide.
If this was a TCG item (a sword with a completely unique appearance, available for transmogrification and as a rare items go in WoW) then it'd be going for 300k+.
It's just so very
rare...
The reason is because it is vendored repeatedly because of the stupid stats on it, and not everyone checks what it looks like before emptying the bags.
As for the sword itself, I've just had a good convo with a GM about this myself. I can post the screenshot of the discussion if need be but here are the salient sentences...
-----------------------------------------
GM:
I'm here about your query about what many call the "Rainbow Sword". Check Wowhead for details of how to obtain this item.
Q:
I did, but I'm concerned about a level 40 item dropping from a mob of much lower level.
GM:
As a gamer I like to think of this sword as "the Sword of a Thousand Truths" lol... Wowhead isn't always correct but it's built by other grinders like yourself that has or are looking to obtain the Rainbow Sword.
Q:
Would that info cover the time before the Cataclysm when Scale Belly was a level 45 mob instead of the low 30s one he is now? As that would skiwiff the stats a little...
GM:
It seems as though Wowhead updates the stats with each patch.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
So, in summary, it seems as though it still drops in 4.3.4, but it's almost mythical in it's rarity. Good luck farming it!
EDIT: Due to contradictory GM conversations on this page,
here's a screenshot of the conversation.
EDIT-EDIT: Those saying the glow has been nerfed? It hasn't. Put particle density on Ultra and play under DirectX 11 and you'll see it fine. It has at least five distinct colours.

I think the only definitive way to end this speculation since even the GMs are divided on this issue is for somebody to actually loot the sword and upload an image of themselves receiving the loot, along with the calendar date. Keep killing those Scale Bellies, folks!

I hate to break it to you guys, but it

I remember clearly the day it dropped, I was wandering around stranglevale and killed an odd turtle whose level I do forget. Months later going through the bank I noticed it, and noted that it had the same icon model as a level 60 epic sword, fill me in as to its name, please. I was going to vendor/DE, and I even checked out the 3d model - heres the catch - I play with graphics on low for performance - the sword looked like nothing special!
Still, I decided to keep it, based on the icon similarity. This was way before transmog.
Returning to the game after several more months and an expansion or two, I find this sitting in my bank, and by now the undermine journal is working, and me and my friend almost went through the roof when we saw the Median/Mean/Deviation prices ....
So its so cool I don't know what to do with it, right now my
Felguard
Wrathguard dual-wields it along with a Soul Cleaver, good stuff.

Have there been any confirmed drops post-4.0?
After researching a bit for the drop rates post Cata, there have been a few speculations over whether it still drops in game.
1. The sword may still drop from Scale Belly in very rare occasions - as suggested by the data on wowhead - however, I have never seen any credible confirmations on it actually still dropping from Scale Belly, other than the one smirky comment above. I am unsure on when Scale Belly last received a data wipe : but I find it unlikely (as others) that an item on significantly higher level to drop from a lower level npc.
2. GM confirming the item still available in game - the problem with this is that what the GM said was vague at best, he never confirmed that the item is still dropping - he merely stated the item 'can still be gained via normal means' - However, a lot of items are only deemed unavailable because they were BoP... but this item is BoE, which means being available on the AH could be considered a 'normal mean'. The GM's word is not enough to confirm new items to still be dropping.
3. Some speculates the item dropping randomly off other lvl 40+ mobs, but this has not been confirmed so far since there has been no record on it dropping off other mobs from the wowhead data.
4. Some speculates the item to still be available since it still shows up on the AH - again this is not direct confirmation on the item still dropping. Those available on the AH might have been obtained back in pre-Cata, and people just found them lying in their alts' banks and wanted to sell them for some quick money (as a lot of comments on the official forum has suggested). In fact, I grabbed mine on the AH some time before MoP came out. It sat in my alt's bank for over half a year before I finally made up my mind and equipped it on my Paladin alt. I might have decided during that time to sell it on the AH, who knows.
TL;DR So far I have seen no direct confirmation on the item still dropping in game (despite various indirect speculations), so if you manage to find one on the AH, you better grab it.
And sorry for bad English, not a native speaker here.

I don't know if the sword drops or not any longer, but what i do know is I have personally gotten drops off a mob that was four to six lvls below the item i looted from said corpse. That being said, If items that are from say 41-50 create dream dust, then it seems "logical"(blizz logic) that the item would drop from this mob because it is 31 and the item is 40(vision dust). To me this makes sense. the mob that drops chan's imperial robes, on the other hand, has been nerfed to lvl 33 and the item it used to drop is lvl 47, this would be almost an imposibility imo. gl 2 all. just a theory :)

I think it still drops, and I think of it this way: Scale belly still drops all his other unique loot, so I don't see why this sword would be any exception. But I guess we'll have to see it to believe it. I have been farming him for a few days, but no luck yet. If it does drop someday ill be sure to take a screenshot.

.Please do not farm him
.It is better to look somewere on dead servers,a few people farmed him for quite a while(the sword used to have a ~
40%drop chance
Pre-Cata while the legs were around 60%)

Looking on Wowuse, there was 1 on Aegwynn about a month ago (Early March 2013) for only a buyout of 5 gold. This leads me to believe that it DOES in fact still drop, and whoever it did still drop for didn't realize how rare and valuable it is. I have only gone through a handful of US servers so far and seen 3. I am confident enough to say it still does drop, although a very very low drop rate.

Parked a lv70 twink in the cave since late Cata, log in to this character out of habit every log in, and usually every 3 hours of play time. Have so far looted bags and bags of green armor, along with an occasional blue weapon, from Scale Belly or the chest the rarely spawns right near him. Not seen the Sword drop.
Crushed when i read today, after not keeping recent with it, that its "no longer available" - I've farmed it so long its second nature, So, i'll continue on the hunt regardless.

ScaleBelly
Hello. This is Scale Belly. I would like to state for the record that I do not drop that cursed sword any longer, so I’m begging you: PLEASE STOP KILLING ME. As Wowhead states, the Chromatic Sword is “no longer available within the game.”
I’m just a poor basilisk trying to snooze on my nice cold rock and everybody and their brother keeps killing me, thinking I’m going to drop that stinking sword. Well, I’m not. I promise you I don’t have it anymore.
Now, I admit, I
am
a bit of a packrat, and carry a variety of items about me that you people keep taking whenever you kill me. (I mean, seriously, guys, that's my stuff! You can't just take a basilisk's personal property like that! Well... I guess you
can
, but you
shouldn't
.) That sword was the limit, though. It was too sharp and I kept stabbing myself with it whenever I'd doze off. And once you guys all found out about the incredibly rare "rainbow sword", and started slaying me every couple of hours to see if you could get it… well, let's just say that my life has been one long series of painful deaths and disorienting respawns.
So I spoke to the bosses that had hired me to be the rare spawn in Crystalvein Cave, and they very kindly took it away. In my innocence, I thought that would make things better. Unfortunately, I'm
still
getting killed, even though I don't have the dang thing anymore! That's why I just made this account here to address you all and beg you for some understanding and charity.
I'm the only guy at our weekly Rare Spawn Society meetings who gets constantly killed for what he
doesn't
have. It's very demoralizing. The other rares try to understand - that's the whole point of our society, to make sure that those of us who are killed so frequently have a group of supportive and understanding friends - but it's still very lonely.
I’d just like to chill on my rock. Enjoy some peace and quiet after all I’ve been through. Maybe get to lord it over the other basilisks in the cave since I
am
the rare guy after all. They just laugh at me, you know, because of how often I'm killed. Sure, I come back every few hours, but those respawn headaches are no fun, and I often forget stuff for a bit when I'm first back, which they find amusing. (Especially when I get killed again the moment I appear.) And if they're not laughing, they're annoyed at me because people trying to get to me end up killing their way through the other basilisks. So I think we would all appreciate it if the Chromatic Sword farmers would please find something else to focus on and leave me alone.
That is all. Thank you for listening.

I have been watching this sword for over a year on undermine, looking at who is posting on different servers, how many new ones pop up and so on. From comparing this item to any other item that was introduced in the salvage yard that had been removed during cataclysm or some other event that changed certain areas, mob levels, etc. I conclude from my own reasoning that this item is not obtainable through those little boxes of goodies. I do welcome anyone to post a screenshot to prove me wrong, as I would love to know if they are. But from all my research and understanding this item is still removed (although BoE of course) and VERY rare. This does not mean they wont implement it into a future patch, as we all know they like to add and remove things at will, but for now what I understand is this comment stands. Goodluck all and happy hunting!
I made a comment about this but thought I should probably put it in this post too, the sword CAN be transmogged, search for my character Arrheníus (alt 0237) on thrall he should have it transmogged at least as of now and for the near future.
Another useful piece of information I found is the glow on this sword overrides any Illusion enchant if anyone was wondering. No Illusion enchant seems to show through, you always get the authentic glow.

Apparently this sword and other pre-Cata BoE's are dropping as of 7.3.5 due to the broad loot table. This MAY just be heresay, but it's worth keeping in mind that 7.3.5 would be the perfect time for things like these to weasel back into the drop tables. To that extent, consider whether or not it's worth selling the sword now if you own one, because
if
it is dropping and people learn that it's dropping, the sword may see an estimate 1000% depreciation in value within the first month of discovery.

Now dropping again as of 8.0. It is currently unknown if this is an intentional change or not. Currently on farm by many people aoe spamming, so farming is very competitive at the moment. In addition, at some point Blizzard greatly weakened the particle effects, thus making the sword much more dull and not as outstanding as it once was. Hopefully they will buff the effects back up to its original state at some point, as the unique effect was one of the primary reasons this sword is so sought after.

after a 15 hour camp on one server its spawn times
seem to be min 1hr max 3hr +/- 15mins most common respawn time was between 2hr 15mins and 2hr 30mins,
this info was gathered over 9 spawns and sword dropped once out of a party of 5 over 9 kills.

Hey Everyone,
Just some info I found while farming.
金鳞蜥蜴
has ~ a 1-3 hour re-spawn (usually closer to 3). With the new loot system you can on do this in 5 man groups
NOT
raids, in raids only one person gets to loot. We estimate the drop rate of
炫彩之剑
to be 2-4%.
Anymore info I find I will update here!

Hello everyone,
I talked with a game master about this topic and the essential part is displayed here imgur.com/a/vm0aHYr
Unfortunatly I am new here, hence I couldnt upload the link directly.
Hopefully it saves you guys time!
EDIT:
Since there are so many confirmed drops, I think we can conclude that the game master had to be misinformed.
Sorry in case this post caused confusion among the community!

In my opinion, Blizzard should have just left the sword unobtainable so that people that spent a ludicrous amount of gold wouldn't have wasted their time. They should just added a cosmetic weapon enchant transmog for the appearance. Considering most people don't really care that much about the sword just it's one of a kind glow.

TL;DR
Respawn timer:
Dynamic interval between 1H 06M - 3H 10M
Dropchance:
1.54%
Notes:
Farm
金鳞蜥蜴
on WW monk with
碧玉疾风
talent in 5-man group for highest chance. Equip haste gear for shorter RJW swing timer. Stand still on spawn. Class trial works. Realm jump to lowest CRZ. Check multiple CRZ for higher chance. Note spawn timers so you can take safe breaks without worrying about missing spawn. Unlooted corpse despawns after 2-4 mins. Loot is not mailed.
Dropchance
Wowhead lists 65 green items on the loot table (without prefixes or suffixes, unique green items). Assuming all items have an equal chance of dropping, the dropchance of the
炫彩之剑
is
1.54%
Respawn time
金鳞蜥蜴
is speculated to obey ordinary rare respawn rules, giving it a dynamic interval between a minimum and maximum possible respawn time similar to
波塞冬斯
albeit with a different interval.

Increasing chance to tag Scale Belly
Consider the following before starting the farm
Should I stay on my own realm and in my own Crossrealm Zone (CRZ), or should I attempt to join a group to phase to a different less populated CRZ?
FAQ and clarification about Crossrealm Zones
http://wowwiki.wikia.com/wiki/Cross-realm_zones
https://www.engadget.com/2012/09/24/blizzard-clarifies-cross-realm-zones/?guccounter=1
Should I realmjump or not?
On one hand, realm jumping causes you to phase a lot. It decreases uptime of being in 5-man groups; it seems unlikely to have unfilled 4-man groups available during jumps.
On the other hand, it is possible to hit empty CRZ pools, especially during weekdays or off hours. Due to the minimum timer, you can safely check other realms for some time after a kill without risking to lose the kill in your the CRZ pool you're farming in.
While
金鳞蜥蜴
is permanently camped in all CRZ pools round the clock, I would not recommended to realm jump for extended periods of time, but rather stay in the same CRZ pool if the minimum time since last kill has passed. Before the minimum timer has passed, you could potentially juggle 2 CRZ pools if you can rely on 2 groups with space and if the minimum timers do not overlap, but this is a lot of effort to set up also. The less populated the CRZ pools are, the more effective realm jumping could be.
Should I enable Warmode or not?
Info about Warmode
• War Mode allows you to toggle on and off World PvP on all realms, removing the distinction between PvE and PvP realms.
• War Mode can be toggled on or off in your faction's capital city.
• Players will only see other players that have War Mode on if they have it on, or players that have it off if they have it off.
• War Mode enables PvP Talents everywhere that PvP can happen and provides 10% bonus XP and rewards from World Quests.
https://blue.mmo-champion.com/topic/1092371-battle-for-azeroth-preview-war-mode-pvp-talents-and-more/
http://www.wowhead.com/news=284006/details-on-war-mode-in-battle-for-azeroth
While it seems immediately appealing to phase away from your competitors in a crowded CRZ pool, enabling warmode can also very easily start a slaughterhouse PvP party. Dieing, and particularly, dieing multiple times is very detrimental to your uptime and you risk losing a tag.
On the other hand one might also enjoy the PvP action as a change to the very dull downtime and long periods of waiting that this tedious farm implies, especially if you're on the winning faction.
NOTE:
Warmode is reported to not affect RP realms and will still only show players from the RP CRZ which is exclusive to RP realms only. Players on PvE and PvP realms may be phased to these realms through the group finder.
Do I own a monk or should I accept a lower chance of tagging Scale Belly than groups that only consist of monks?
Due to the new mechanics of Windwalker (WW) talent
碧玉疾风
(RJW) (Infinite duration, 360 8-yard range constant AoE) farming this mob becomes trivial compared to other classes that have to constantly remain active spellqueuing AoE abilities to have a chance of tagging
金鳞蜥蜴
.
While the basilisk is factiontag it is immediately killed by any AoE ability, thus making it random which horde or alliance group happens to tag it first. Accordingly a group of 5 WW monks will have the highest chance of tagging.
Note that gear with haste rating decreases the global cooldown (GCD and subsequently also the swing timer of the
碧玉疾风
. I doubt it has much impact compared to i.e latency, but it could matter in crowded CRZ pools.
Bonus info
When you've decided on a place to farm here are a few things to keep in mind
• Write down the timestamp of a kill. If you're sure when the last kill occured and you know the minimum spawn timer, you don't have to worry about missing a spawn. If you're unsure, you may feel compelled to stay present for longer than necessary.
• When
金鳞蜥蜴
is tagged to you or your group,
you have
2 minutes (+/- 20 seconds)
between 2-4 minutes to loot the corpse or the loot is lost!
.
Unlooted loot is not mailed to your mailbox
- This only applies for BoP, +rare quality loot and boss loot (unconfirmed).
Recorded despawn times for unlooted corpse

•
金鳞蜥蜴
does not respawn immediately after a realm restart. Furthermore it seems likely that a realm restart resets the spawn timer regardless of the cycle prior to the restart after making this observation on 21 July, 2018 in the RP CRZ.
Last kill before restart: 03:57 AM (1H 50M since last spawn)
Server shutdown: (Timestamp N/A)
Server up: 05:25 AM
First kill after restart: 07:26 AM (2H 01M after server up)
• It is unknown if a server shutdown or maintenance will cause
金鳞蜥蜴
to immediately respawn or reset the spawn timer when realms are up.
• Full inventory is rumoured to only force BoP/Soulbound items to be mailed to your mailbox. (Unconfirmed)
• If
彩鳞护腿
drop, they always drops in addition to another green item (confirmed, 4 observations).
It is unknown if this has any relation to the
炫彩之剑
or if it causes any sort of double dipping on the drop chance.
炫彩之剑
may both drop alone and together with another green item.

@ 4:46 server time on Thorium Brotherhood I was lucky enough to loot the Chromatic Sword from Scale Belly on my third kill using my monk. I was grouped and noone else got it, which means it must be personal loot.
评论来自
ScaleBelly
DANG IT.
Everything was so
nice
there for a few years.... I'd
finally
gotten you lot to realize that I no longer had that stinking sword. It was just me, snoozing on my rock in my lovely dank cave, enjoying the peace and quiet of a life without constant disorienting respawns and rez headaches. Sure, there were the occasional levelers rampaging through the cave and disturbing us all. But that's just an ordinary hazard of life in the jungle.
And then,
bam.
No warning. Not even a "Oh, by the way, we want you to guard this sword again" memo from my bosses. I woke up from a nap one day, and the sword was just
there
. And the moment I saw it, I just
knew
.... Life was about to get very complicated again.
I don't know how you guys catch onto things so quickly. I tried to hide the sword at first, so no one else would realize that I had it again. But, nooooo.... the same magical forces that somehow brought it back to me and are making me keep it even when I don't want it also alerted the Chromatic Sword farmers. They have shown up in
droves
, and they're even stronger than they were the last time I had the sword. I've had no peace or respite at all. The moment I wake up from one horribly swift death, I'm dead again, and all my stuff is gone. (Take the sword,
fine!
Trust me, I don't want it! But do you have to take the
rest
of my stuff, too? Seriously!)
I've written a strongly worded petition to my bosses in protest. I mean, why
me?
Why do
I
have to guard this stupid glowy weapon again? Can't somebody
else
hang onto it for a while? I've already put in my time with this thing, and I'm not happy to be forced back out of retirement and known around the caves as "that poor sap who gets killed all the time for his rare sword."
If it wasn't for the support of my Rare Spawn Society friends, who are all helping me deal with this unexpected crisis, I really don't know what I'd do. As it is now, all I can do is beg you to show some scrap of charity, some semblance of kindness. Please... I'm begging you... can't you guys just leave me alone again?

So, this sword can only drop for classes who can wield two handed swords. Why are there so many monks farming this? Are they that dumb, or are they just trolling? :]

Why is this so much more vibrant/pronounced on some screenshots than others? I thought it might be graphics settings, but I've got everything maxed graphically and when I checked out the sword at the a.h. it was a very subtle glow.

I'm so extremely lucky. Since I'm kinda bored with BfA now and waiting for patch I decided to go adn farm Chromatic Sword. I killed it twice today and it dropped on the second kill, on EU-Twilight's Hammer.
The other 2 in the group, saying the farmed for weeks already were not happy, ROFL xD.

So after about a week of farming and fighting over the spot with multiple AOE AFKers.I finally got it! It might be that I got it quicker then most people farming but just getting the kill was the hard part. I only have an approximate number of times I killed him because I didn't start keeping track right away but my kill count seems to be roughly around 30+. Funny thing was I was about to leave the house and was like lemme check for scale belly real quick on my laptop. I logged in an he was there and killed him twice on two different toons...the 2nd kill it dropped! So good luck all! As of Friday, Nov.22, 2019 10am est...
He is still dropping the sword! /FARM ON

Weeks of farming, but finally got it as an ilevel 66 rare. I found it marginally less frustrating to do this on a skinner and rampage around the cave once in a while.

Had a chromatic sword drop today on 4/20 (nice) in 2020-- which interestingly, dropped with another random BoE (Captain's Bracers of the __).
I had no idea the sword was displaced and unobtainable for years since the Cataclysm and then available again in Battle for Azeroth, because that would have saved a lot of time when I used to swoop into the cave to slap up that basilisk. Just commenting for word-of-mouth confirmation of it still being obtainable presently, because the next expansion is supposed to have another level squish which might affect unique weapon drops once more.

is a low drop from this rare, found inside the Crystalvein Mine (67.7, 25.7) in
荆棘谷海角
. His respawn time is 1-3 hours. The absolute best way to farm this item is to have a character in Chromie Time parked there, ideally in Warmode on an RP realm.
I can confirm this drops in Shadowlands. Had it dropped after 27 kills.

Can anyone tell me if the glow has really been reduced on this item? I'm thinking of getting it from the AH since it's sorta cheap compared to long ago, but when I view it in the dressing room sometimes it shows a bright rainbow glow and when I reset it, it shows almost no glow at all. Kinda don't want it if it isn't gonna glow all the time.
评论来自
SargerasWasRight
I knew that the glowy effects on this sword had been reduced since it was first introduced but buckled down and farmed one anyway. Boy what a massive disappointment. Like many top comments on wowhead the featured screenshot here is old, unhelpful and deceptive. This sword is no longer vibrant at all, the colors are dull and often hard to see. This thing is a pitiful shadow of its former self.
If you want this for transmog you should REALLY try to see one in game first. Chances are you wont want to bother after seeing it in person.

~6 Months of farming on 4 characters, I got it on Timewalking War Mode on after 141 kills.
The colours are terrible, barely visible. To get an idea, enchant a plain 2H sword with Lifestealing or Titanguard

*edit: i forgot to mention I was actually farming for the sword Destiny. I just remembered. Anyway..*
I remember being in Tanaris back in OG vanilla, right before WSG released.. I got bored and decided to just kill any gator-like creature I saw around Gadetzan. My friend PM's me and asks if I wanted to go run BRD. I said no, but he really wanted to hang. So I said I'd show him something cool.. Caverns of Time. Back around that time it was just a floating space of asteroids and purple stuff and literally no floor texture.. but you could walk.
So anyway, we meet up at Gadgetzan and I'm like "dude, let's see who can kill the most gators along the way" and he's like "yeah bro, let's do it"
We get close to the back of the CoT mountains and all of a sudden this Sword pops up as a roll.
Me, being a warrior, and my friend being a mage, rolled need immediately. My mage friend passed it to me.
"Hey man, that sword looks terrible.. it's like a level 37 sword and your whirlwind axe does more damage"
I say "You're right man. It isn't that great.. looks pretty cool though, I might hang on to it"
So.. TBC comes around. My account gets hacked and permanently banned. Blizzard does nothing.
Years and years pass by, and what, it's Warlords of Draenor at this point?) playing on a new account, new server, and I get Hella drunk from nostalgia one night. I decide to write a very long email to Blizzard about my old account with as much detail as possible.
I wake up the next day to my old account linked to my B.net launcher.
I immediately log in, and found that most of my characters were deleted, but my warrior was still there. I log onto him and I'm instantly greeted by my old guild friends, in which I honestly thought they were long gone.. but nope!
I learn from my old guildies that my mage friend passed away not too long after our encounter.. and everytime this sword gets mentioned, I think of him.
Sorry this comment is everywhere, all at once.. but I have a soft spot for coincidences and man, the weird thing is, neither Thottbot, Alakhazam, or Wowhead mentioned this sword ever dropping in Tanaris..
But it did. And I bet at the time this sword was "removed," it still did.
