Forerunner Relic Blade
Forerunner Relic Blade
Forerunner Relic Blade is a sword straight from Tazavesh, which — by a stroke of luck — ended up in the bottomless bag of the inventor Zi’nox. Cosmic energy fills the blade, causing it to sparkle and emit a radiant glow.
How to get the Forerunner Relic Blade
You can obtain the Ancient Blade of the Forerunner by defeating Inventor Zi’nox in the Sepulcher of the First Ones raid.
The drop chance is 11 %.
Besides the relatively low drop rate, you may face challenges just getting to Zereth Mortis. This zone is locked for players who didn’t play through the Shadowlands expansion, and unlocking it requires completing a significant number of story quests.
If you didn’t play Shadowlands or level alternate characters in that expansion, we’ve prepared a special guide to help you unlock this zone.
If you’ve already unlocked the zone, getting there is straightforward:
- Go to your faction’s portal room.
- Teleport to Oribos.
- Head to the second floor, where you’ll find a distinctive yellow portal that leads to Zereth Mortis.
If the portal isn’t visible, it means you haven’t completed the story questline required to unlock the zone.
Notes
- The blade’s appearance doesn’t change across raid difficulty levels, so you can run all available difficulty tiers to increase your chances of obtaining it.
- The sword is available to all classes that can wield one‑handed swords, regardless of their primary stat — the same colour scheme is available for all three stats.
- Some bosses in the raid have challenging mechanics. We recommend running the raid with a group if your character isn’t strong enough to handle the encounters solo.
