Overview

Coral-Sharpened Greatsword

Game iconCoral-Sharpened Greatsword is an epic two-handed sword added to World of Warcraft in the Battle for Azeroth expansion alongside the Nazjatar zone. The blade looks as if it were grown from living coral: a broad, serrated edge in a cold deep-water palette, styled to match the weaponry of the naga and Azshara's underwater realm.

This is not a reward or raid item but a rare drop from a special zone event — the Laboratory of Mardivas. The appearance is prized for its unusual "organic" shape and for the fact that it remains obtainable: with the right reagents on hand, the sword can still be farmed today.

Source

The source type is a drop from an elemental summoned in a zone event.

  • The sword drops from the Spawn of Salgos, an elemental summoned in the Laboratory of Mardivas.
  • The Laboratory is a cave in Nazjatar, the underwater zone of the Battle for Azeroth expansion.
  • To summon the right elemental, you activate a combination of special crystals in the laboratory and trigger the summoning device; the set of crystals determines exactly who appears.
  • The crystals are charged with rare reagents that drop from the denizens of Nazjatar, so it is worth stocking up on them before heading in.
  • The sword's drop chance from the Spawn of Salgos is about 13%, so you will most likely need several summons.
  • The appearance is farmed by repeating the summon of the right elemental; note that the laboratory's quest credit is granted only once per week.

Who it suits visually

  • Naga and underwater-themed looks: the coral blade fits naturally into outfits from Nazjatar and the court of Azshara.
  • Sets in a blue-turquoise palette: the cold tones of the blade reinforce a marine color scheme.
  • "Nature" and shamanic builds: the organic coral shape echoes druidic and elemental motifs.
  • Looks based on Nazjatar's deep-sea gear: the sword completes an appearance begun with the zone's armor.

Tips

1

Before entering the Laboratory of Mardivas, stock up on reagents to charge the crystals — without them you cannot summon the elemental.

2

Pick the crystal combination specifically for the Spawn of Salgos: only this elemental drops the sword you want.

3

Plan for several attempts: with roughly a 13% chance, the sword rarely drops on the first summon.

4

If the appearance does not drop, do not forget the laboratory's quest — it grants reputation and zone currency once per week.

5

While you are there, gather the coral items from the laboratory's other elementals to assemble a complete deep-water look.

6

The sword suits classes that wield two-handed swords — warriors, paladins and death knights.

Started playing back in Pandaria, when the pandaren were still a novelty. Got stuck on Monk because it's the only class where you don't get dizzy after a dash. Tries to manage both tanking and kicking enemies in the face.
