WoW Forever class weapon quests offer unique leveling rewards for Paladin, Warrior, Shaman, Mage, Rogue and Warlock. Alliance Paladins work toward Verigan’s Fist, Horde Paladins toward Wolfsbane; Warriors choose a Whirlwind weapon; Shamans complete The Tempest’s Weapons; Mages choose a school-specific wand; Rogues infiltrate Scarlet Monastery for Ruby-Adorned Blade; and Warlocks can claim the Staff or Orb of Soran’ruk. These are class-only quest rewards, not random weapons you can farm from an ordinary dungeon boss.
Which quest should you do first? Match your class and faction, confirm the quest and reward you can actually use, and then check its dungeon, material and elite stages. Most chains begin between levels 20 and 30; the Horde Paladin introduction starts earlier. A Level-20 or Level-30 quest can still send you against much stronger enemies. When a final hand-in offers several rewards, you normally choose one, not the complete set.
Pre-launch update, October 27, 2026: Blizzard closed the Forever beta on October 23. The full game is scheduled for November 4, 2026, with leveling to 60. Level 20-30 class weapons will be part of that journey, not endgame BiS. The routes below combine Forever quest records with the last available beta findings; game data, hidden content and exact launch behavior may still change. Recheck the in-game quest log if a step or reward differs on launch day.

WoW Forever Class Weapon Quests at a Glance
Start with the table below. The required level is when a chain or its listed service becomes available, not a promise of an easy solo completion at that level.
| Class / faction | Quest and reward | Starting level | Hardest practical obstacle |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alliance Paladin | Verigan’s Fist via The Test of Righteousness | 20 | Materials from Deadmines and Shadowfang Keep; separate travel to Loch Modan and the Blackfathom coast |
| Horde Paladin | Wolfsbane via A Moon-Kissed Blade and Old Fire-Eye | 18 for introduction; 20 for weapon work | Cross-faction dungeon materials, then a Silverpine elite fight |
| Warrior (both factions) | Whirlwind Axe, Sword or Warhammer via Whirlwind Weapon | 30 | Elemental materials and the level-40 elite Cyclonian |
| Shaman (both factions) | The Tempest’s Weapons: three role-oriented choices | 30, after totem progression | Razorfen Kraul, Twisted Totems and the Thousand Needles elite event |
| Mage (both factions) | Mage’s Wand: Icefury, Ragefire or Nether Force | 30 | Scarlet Monastery Library, Arathi materials and a long travel chain |
| Warlock (both factions) | The Orb of Soran’ruk: Staff of Soran’ruk or Orb of Soran’ruk | 20 | Three fragments from Blackfathom Deeps plus one larger fragment from Shadowfang Keep |
| Rogue (both factions) | Ruby-Adorned Blade through The Eye of Bhossca | Database says 25; beta reports mail at 30 | Solo Stealth infiltration of Scarlet Monastery and the dead-drop sequence |
Useful distinction: Paladin faction determines the weapon, while Warrior, Shaman, Mage and Warlock have mutually exclusive reward choices. Rogue earns its blade through a solo infiltration chain. A class weapon is only a good upgrade if its stats, speed and damage suit your current role; a higher item level by itself does not make it best-in-slot.
Get the Weapon You Actually Need
Once you know your class, faction, required level and reward, decide whether to run the whole quest chain yourself or arrange the eligible class-quest work after launch. Rogue is a self-guided route here; it is not listed in our current Class Quests service.
Which Class Weapon Quests Are New in WoW Forever?
Not every quest in this guide was invented for Forever. The differences matter if you remember Classic or Season of Discovery:
| Chain | Forever status | What actually changes |
|---|---|---|
| Paladin — Alliance | Returning Classic | The Test of Righteousness still awards Verigan’s Fist in the Forever database. |
| Paladin — Horde | New Forever route | New Forsaken-side story leads to the Moonsilver Blade and its Wolfsbane upgrade. |
| Warrior / Mage | Returning Classic chains | Whirlwind Weapon and Mage’s Wand remain available, with Forever-specific item records and beta balance. |
| Shaman | New Forever weapon chain | The Tempest’s Weapons follows totem progress and introduces rewards tailored to Shaman playstyles. |
| Rogue | Updated quest path | The Eye of Bhossca quest and Ruby-Adorned Blade reward appear in the Forever database; the sequence builds on the earlier covert class quest. |
| Warlock | Returning Classic quest | The Orb of Soran’ruk remains a two-dungeon collection quest with a choice between a staff and an off-hand orb. |
Not every class quest awards a weapon. Warlock demon summons and Druid forms have separate objectives, while The Orb of Soran’ruk is the relevant Warlock equipment quest. The LepreStore Class Quests configurator currently offers the listed Paladin, Warrior, Shaman and Mage weapon chains alongside selected spell, form and summon unlocks. Rogue’s Eye of Bhossca and Warlock’s Orb of Soran’ruk are not listed weapon services. Use the DIY routes below for those two chains.
Paladin Weapon Quests: Verigan’s Fist or Wolfsbane
Paladins have a distinct faction split: Alliance receives the two-handed mace Verigan’s Fist, while Horde receives the two-handed sword Wolfsbane. Both are class-restricted and bind on pickup. The final beta data gives both weapons a special on-hit effect, so old comparisons based only on their raw weapon damage are incomplete. Neither faction can obtain the other’s weapon from its own chain.
Alliance: How to Get Verigan’s Fist
- Reach level 20 and begin your Paladin class storyline. The opening breadcrumbs depend on your race. Continue through the Tome of Valor / Test of Righteousness progression until Jordan Stilwell in Ironforge provides the weapon notes.
- Collect Whitestone Oak Lumber. Find Goblin Woodcarvers inside The Deadmines, around the mast-making area.
- Retrieve Jordan’s Smithing Hammer. It is inside Shadowfang Keep, in the stable/courtyard section. Arrange dungeon access instead of assuming a level-20 Paladin can clear the entire instance solo.
- Bring Jordan’s Refined Ore Shipment. Take the related errand from Bailor Stonehand at Thelsamar, Loch Modan, recover the shipment near Mo’grosh Stronghold and return for the refined ore.
- Obtain a Purified Kor Gem. Follow the auxiliary lead toward the Blackfathom Deeps approach at Zoram Strand; do not confuse the prerequisite gem errand with a random boss drop from inside a full BFD clear.
- Return all four components to Jordan Stilwell in Ironforge. Complete the final weapon turn-in for Verigan’s Fist.
What changed in Forever: the final beta version of Verigan’s Fist has a Holy Forgefire chance-on-hit effect, dealing Holyfire damage with bonus damage against Fire and Earth Elementals. That is an item effect, not a new quest step. Time-saving route: accept the material subquests before entering the required dungeons or hunting naga. A completed clear cannot substitute for a prerequisite you forgot to collect.
Horde: How to Get Wolfsbane
- Begin at Bandarion Keep in western Tirisfal Glades. The chain starts as early as level 18 with Diplomatic Incident, then sends you into the Silverpine Forest storyline around Lumina Windsinger.
- Continue through the setup quests. The Windshaper storyline leads into A Moon-Kissed Blade and the materials needed to craft a special sword.
- Gather three materials plus Trevan’s Weapon Notes. Seek Whitestone Oak Lumber in Deadmines, Enchanted Silver Ingot in Shadowfang Keep and Purified Kor Gem near the Blackfathom Deeps approach through its prerequisite quest.
- Complete the forging steps. Continue through the Silverpine and crafting hand-ins until you receive the Moonsilver Blade.
- Defeat Old Fire-Eye. Equip the Moonsilver Blade for the elite worgen encounter south of the Sepulcher, near the Gilneas approach; its first successful hit is part of breaking the encounter’s shield. A partner is useful at level 20.
- Return for the upgrade. Finish Old Fire-Eye to receive Wolfsbane.
Do not confuse the intermediate Moonsilver Blade with Wolfsbane. The final sword has a Holystorm on-hit effect with additional damage against Wolves and Worgen. A nearby two-handed sword trainer and sufficient weapon skill can also matter for the Old Fire-Eye encounter. This Horde-only story does not start at the Alliance Verigan’s Fist NPCs. The Paladin class overview covers Holy, Protection and Retribution decisions after you earn the weapon.
Warrior: How to Get Whirlwind Axe, Sword or Warhammer
Whirlwind Weapon is a returning Classic chain and a useful mid-level Warrior target on the path to 60. It becomes available at level 30, but Cyclonian is a level-40 elite. You can arrange help at 30 or return at a higher level when the fight and the material grind are easier.
- Learn Berserker Stance first. Complete the class route through The Islander and The Affray, then follow the quest lead to Bath’rah the Windwatcher in the Alterac Mountains.
- Collect the materials. Prepare 8 Liferoot, 30 Bloodscalp Tusks and an Essence of the Exile. The Essence is assembled from elemental charm collection in Arathi Highlands, not purchased as a single ready-made shortcut.
- Prepare for an elite fight. The Summoning brings out Cyclonian, a level-40 elite. Get reliable help at level 30, or progress toward 40 before attempting it with fewer allies.
- Loot the Whirlwind Heart and return it to Bath’rah the Windwatcher.
- Choose one final weapon: Whirlwind Axe, Whirlwind Sword or Whirlwind Warhammer.
Which one? Whirlwind Axe is a sensible default when high top-end two-handed damage matters for your current leveling or Arms setup. Sword and Warhammer are legitimate alternatives, not extra items you receive together. Compare their speed, your weapon skill and your spec before choosing. LepreStore currently lists Whirlwind Axe specifically, not an automatic choice of all three weapons. None is a guaranteed Level-60 BiS weapon.
For talents, weapon speed and stance decisions beyond the quest itself, use the WoW Forever Warrior Guide.
Shaman: How to Complete The Tempest’s Weapons
The Tempest’s Weapons is a new Forever Shaman chain with three role-specific weapon choices. It opens around level 30 after the preceding totem progression, and sends players through Razorfen Kraul, distant elemental enemies and a final event in Thousand Needles. Do not treat the quest’s starting level as the recommended solo level for every stage.
- Finish your Air Totem / Call of Air progression. Check your Shaman quest log and trainer if the next step does not appear. Horde and Alliance use different starting NPCs, but follow comparable objectives.
- Complete Elemental Aid. Run Razorfen Kraul, defeat its final boss Charlga Razorflank and recover the clue about the quilboar ritual.
- Work through the follow-up investigation. The faction versions include Eyes on the Sky and/or Storm, Earth, and Fire. Collect the required Twisted Totems from creatures spread across areas including Dustwallow Marsh, Desolace, Swamp of Sorrows and Badlands. Quest records and objectives can differ by faction.
- Complete Heed My Call. Bring the corrupted totems to the Thousand Needles steam-pool event and survive a challenging elemental-and-quilboar sequence. This has included level-40 elite opponents during the beta, so plan for help.
- Claim your weapon. Carry the Eye of the Tempest to Bath’rah the Windwatcher in Alterac Mountains (around
/way 80.4 66.8) for the final reward choice.
| Shaman reward | Natural role fit | Why you might choose it |
|---|---|---|
| Lightning’s Grasp | Elemental | One-hand fist weapon: +46 spell damage/healing and +1% Lightning Bolt critical chance in the last beta tooltip |
| Tidebringer’s Claw | Restoration | One-hand fist weapon: up to +86 healing and +28 spell damage, plus 2% Healing Wave/Lesser Healing Wave crit in the last beta tooltip |
| Rage of the Storm | Enhancement | Two-hand mace: 3.20 speed, +15 Stamina, +12 Intellect and +10% Stormstrike damage in the last beta tooltip |
These are three mutually exclusive main weapon rewards, not one complete set or universal BiS ranking. The same weapon may be less valuable if you already have a stronger setup. The Forever database also shows different additional rewards on faction-specific final quests: do not assume that Elementalist’s Guard and Rune of the Storm are granted together to every Shaman. Confirm the actual hand-in on your character.
October 15 tuning: Blizzard increased several Twisted Totem drop opportunities, improved respawns and made Eye of the Tempest multi-drop. This improves the group route versus early October reports, but it does not remove the level and travel challenges. Shamans in Forever also have two-handed axes and maces as baseline weapon options rather than requiring the old Enhancement talent. For spec-specific playstyles, compare Elemental, Enhancement and Restoration in our Shaman overview.
Mage: How to Get Icefury, Ragefire or Nether Force Wand
At level 30 a Mage can begin the returning Mage’s Wand chain. This is a multi-zone quest, not a shop purchase or a one-boss dungeon reward. It ends with a choice of one school-themed wand.
- Pick up Journey to the Marsh from a Mage trainer and visit Tabetha, west of Theramore in Dustwallow Marsh.
- Start Items of Power and Hidden Secrets. Collect the materials requested for Tabetha’s wand and find Magus Tirth at the Shimmering Flats in Thousand Needles.
- Complete Get the Scoop. Locate the disguised assistant near the raceway and recover the information required to open Tirth’s strongbox.
- Run Scarlet Monastery Library. During Rituals of Power, collect the required book before leaving. At level 30, plan for a group; a higher-level character can return later with fewer difficulties.
- Finish the materials collection. Items of Power involves Witherbark trolls in Arathi Highlands and a Jade. Check that both Items of Power and Rituals of Power are turned in before looking for the final quest.
- Return to Tabetha, finish Mage’s Wand and select one of the three rewards below.
| Wand | Best-matched school | Key characteristic |
|---|---|---|
| Nether Force Wand | Arcane | Arcane-focused spell-damage bonus |
| Ragefire Wand | Fire | Fire-focused spell-damage bonus |
| Icefury Wand | Frost | Frost-focused spell-damage bonus |
In the Forever database, each wand carries +3 Intellect and up to +9 damage for its matching spell school. Choose for the school you cast most often, not just its basic wand DPS. If you are leveling Frost but plan to respec to Fire, make the call before the final hand-in: the quest does not award all three wands. Our Mage Guide compares Arcane, Fire and Frost beyond the weapon quest.
Warlock: How to Get Staff or Orb of Soran’ruk
The Orb of Soran’ruk is a returning class quest that players can start at level 20. It is easy to miss in a class-weapon list because the final choice includes an off-hand orb as well as a two-handed staff. Both rewards are Warlock-only. This is separate from the Voidwalker, Succubus/Incubus and Felhunter summoning chains.
- Visit Doan Karhan in The Barrens, near
/way 49.3 57.2, and accept The Orb of Soran’ruk. Both factions can use this quest giver; Alliance players should plan the journey through Horde territory carefully. - Collect 3 Soran’ruk Fragments from Twilight’s Hammer enemies, including Twilight Acolytes, in Blackfathom Deeps. Bring the class quest before you organize the run.
- Collect 1 Large Soran’ruk Fragment from Shadowfang Darksouls in Shadowfang Keep. This is a second dungeon objective, not the reward from a single BFD clear.
- Return to Doan Karhan and choose either Staff of Soran’ruk or Orb of Soran’ruk. You cannot keep both rewards from the same completion.
| Reward | When it makes sense | What to compare |
|---|---|---|
| Staff of Soran’ruk | A strong two-handed caster weapon when you do not have a better combined main-hand and off-hand loadout | Last-beta tooltip: +14 Stamina, up to +34 Fire damage and +34 Shadow damage; compare with both existing weapon slots |
| Orb of Soran’ruk | For a Warlock with a good one-handed weapon who still needs an off-hand | Last-beta tooltip shows Fire/Shadow spell bonuses and a self-heal use effect; do not compare the orb as if it were a staff |
Is this worth doing on the way to 60? It can be, especially if you have both dungeon groups ready and your current weapon slots are weak. However, a two-instance trip that delays your progression significantly may not pay off if stronger quest weapons are close ahead. The WoW Forever Warlock Guide covers Affliction, Demonology and Destruction gear priorities. The Class Quests Boost currently lists Warlock summon chains, not this Orb of Soran’ruk weapon quest.
Rogue: Ruby-Adorned Blade and The Eye of Bhossca
Rogue has a different type of class weapon quest: The Eye of Bhossca focuses on Stealth, infiltration and the C dead-drop storyline. The reward is Ruby-Adorned Blade, a Rogue-only one-handed sword with 2.30 speed, +3 Agility and +8 Stamina in the last-beta tooltip. It is a real class reward, not automatically the best sword available at this level.
Quest-level nuance: the Forever quest database lists a level-25 minimum for The Eye of Bhossca, but beta walkthroughs report that the invitation from C arrived at level 30, following earlier covert quests such as The Horn of Xelthos. This is a database-versus-observed-trigger difference, not proof that every stage opens at 25. If the dead drop is empty, check earlier quest completion, in-game mail and the launch client before assuming the quest is unavailable.
- Finish the preceding covert Rogue work, including The Horn of Xelthos when required by your version. Check for mail from C as you reach the relevant level.
- Visit the C dead drop around
/way 47.1 71.1in Pyrewood Village, Silverpine Forest. - Prepare the Scarlet disguise. Beta walkthroughs describe a Scarlet Initiate Uniform in the stables behind Scarlet Monastery, around
/way 81.2 32.1in Tirisfal Glades. - Infiltrate the monastery alone. Use Stealth, disguise and Pick Pocket as the quest requires; a Scarlet Scryer’s key and a graveyard sequence form part of the documented route. This objective is not a normal group-clear substitute.
- Recover the Eye of Bhossca from the Library objective, then return it to the Pyrewood Village drop.
- Collect the promised payment. Watch for the final note/mail and return to the dead drop to claim Ruby-Adorned Blade.
Community walkthroughs document this solo route, including the Scarlet disguise, Pick Pocket key and graveyard bench mechanism. But patrols and reset interactions can change by launch, so rely on the quest objectives rather than an old instance-reset exploit. For Combat, Assassination and Subtlety, compare the blade’s actual damage and speed to what you already own; its class-only status does not make it the automatic best choice.
Service availability: Rogue is not one of the classes offered in the current LepreStore Class Quests configurator. Use this walkthrough for the Rogue chain rather than buying another class’s quest option. For your build decisions, see our Rogue Guide.
Which Class Weapon Reward Is Worth Getting?
The most expensive error is measuring a quest weapon by item level alone. Your role, the time left before the next gear bracket, and whether you need a group can matter more than a small stat increase.
| Your situation | Practical decision |
|---|---|
| Level-20 Paladin still using a weak green weapon | The faction quest weapon is often worth planning, especially when you can combine Deadmines and Shadowfang Keep objectives with existing dungeon groups. |
| Level-30 Warrior without a strong two-hander | Whirlwind Axe is a meaningful target, provided you can arrange help for the materials and level-40 elite. |
| Shaman who plays multiple roles | Compare the three weapon options against the spec you actually use most; a healing fist weapon and a Stormstrike mace solve different problems. |
| Mage with one dominant damage school | The school-matched wand is the straightforward choice, but confirm your planned specialization before locking in the reward. |
| Rogue who values a solo class challenge | Do The Eye of Bhossca for the unique quest experience and possible upgrade; compare its stats against readily available alternatives before calling it BiS. |
| Warlock at level 20 with two dungeon groups available | Compare Staff of Soran’ruk with your entire weapon setup, or the Orb with an existing main-hand weapon; decide whether BFD plus SFK is worth the time. |
| Character advancing rapidly toward levels 40-60 | Consider whether the travel and group effort are still worthwhile. A memorable class weapon may be valuable without being your longest-lasting DPS upgrade. |
Need to compare these rewards against other items at the same stage? The Best Level 30 Gear Guide covers role-specific dungeon, quest and crafted alternatives. This page stays focused on obtaining class-bound quest weapons; it does not replace a full Level 1-60 gear route or a Level-60 pre-raid BiS list.
How to Prepare for Class Weapon Quests Without Wasting Runs
- Check your faction, class and prerequisite quest log. A missing earlier class task can prevent the next weapon quest from appearing, especially for Shaman, Mage and Rogue.
- Accept every material subquest first. This is critical for the Paladin collection routes. Do not enter a dungeon hoping a quest-only object will work without its preceding hand-in.
- Reserve help for difficult stages. Cyclonian, the Shaman elemental event, several Paladin stages and Warlock’s two-dungeon fragment route may need group coordination at the quest’s starting level.
- Choose your reward before the last turn-in. The Mage and Shaman options support different roles; the Warrior choices have different weapon profiles.
- Do not mistake a dungeon clear for class-quest completion. A clear may satisfy one part of a chain, but the final quest reward requires its own objectives and hand-in.
- Check launch eligibility. Beta characters and beta quest completions do not carry over as finished class rewards. LepreStore’s listed quest-completion service is a pre-order for the November 4 launch, not a beta service.
For a character who qualifies, WoW Forever Class Quests Boost covers selected, listed chains through their final hand-in. Current weapon options are Paladin, Warrior (Whirlwind Axe), Shaman and Mage, with separate class ability or summon options. Shaman’s All Totems is a separate selectable option if the prerequisite totem progression is incomplete. Leveling, unselected prerequisites and unrelated quests are not automatically included; Rogue’s blade and Warlock’s Soran’ruk rewards are not currently offered as weapon services. The service is a launch pre-order and begins only when the selected content and character requirements are available.
Other Class Quest Rewards You Should Not Confuse With Weapons
A few class-exclusive discoveries overlap these searches without actually awarding the weapon discussed above. The Alliance Paladin chain ending in Return to Delgren awarded the Cloak of the Divine Storm in final beta records, not the Season of Discovery Divine Storm rune. It is a separate quest line from Verigan’s Fist and was documented as Alliance-only during the beta. Likewise, Druid forms and Warlock summons are class quest rewards, but not class weapon pickups.
Forever’s database also lists other class-restricted weapons, including the Mage-only Coldflame Saber. A class restriction alone does not prove that the weapon comes from a quest, so it is not presented as another Mage’s Wand reward. Warlock’s Soran’ruk staff/orb is different: it is the direct choice from a documented class equipment quest.
WoW Forever Class Weapon Quests FAQ
Which WoW Forever class weapon quest is newly added?
The Tempest’s Weapons is a new Shaman chain, and the Horde Paladin story culminating in Wolfsbane is new to Forever. The Rogue Eye of Bhossca route is updated; Warrior’s Whirlwind and Mage’s Wand are returning Classic quests.
Can I start these quests before level 30?
Yes. Warlocks can start The Orb of Soran’ruk at level 20, as can Paladins for their weapon work; the Horde Paladin introductory story begins at 18. Warrior, Shaman and Mage weapon chains start around 30. Rogue quest records show level 25, while beta players commonly reported a level-30 mail trigger. Quest availability is not the same as easy solo completion.
Can I get all three Shaman weapons or all three Mage wands?
No. A single final hand-in asks you to select one of the available choices. Verify the tooltip and your primary spec before claiming the reward.
Does Warlock have a class weapon quest in WoW Forever?
Yes. The Orb of Soran’ruk starts at level 20 and requires fragments from Blackfathom Deeps and Shadowfang Keep. Warlocks choose either the two-handed Staff of Soran’ruk or the off-hand Orb of Soran’ruk. This is separate from demon-summoning quests.
Are class quest weapons tradable or guaranteed dungeon drops?
No. These personal class-quest rewards bind to their owner. Several chains require dungeon objectives, but a normal dungeon clear does not grant the final class reward unless you complete the required quest steps and hand-in.
Does LepreStore’s Class Quests Boost include Rogue?
No. The published configurator lists Paladin, Warrior, Shaman and Mage weapon chains alongside selected Druid forms and Warlock summons. It does not list Rogue’s Eye of Bhossca or Warlock’s Orb of Soran’ruk weapon quest, and it should not be interpreted as covering every class chain.
Is the class weapon quest the same as my final Level 60 BiS weapon?
No. They are early-to-midgame rewards that can smooth leveling toward 60. Later dungeon, crafted, quest and eventually raid weapons create new choices. Pick a class weapon for your current spec and acquisition cost, not because its Level-30 reputation guarantees Level-60 BiS status.
