Decapitator of Alireza — Transmog Set Guide
Overview

The
Decapitator of Alireza is an epic two-handed sword added to World of Warcraft in the Battle for Azeroth expansion. The blade follows the fel-fire greatsword model: a wide, jagged edge with green veins of Fel energy and a massive, spiked guard. In color and silhouette it sits closer to the demonic weapons of the Legion than to the ordinary swords of Kul Tiras and Zandalar.
This is a Strength weapon, so it suits warriors, paladins, and death knights. The item is of epic quality and becomes soulbound on equip, so you can only obtain the appearance with your own character.
Source
The Decapitator of Alireza is a rare random drop from the Battle for Azeroth era, not tied to a specific boss or dungeon.
- According to Wowhead, the item has been recorded as loot from the Returned Predator — a skeletal saurid in the Nazmir zone.
- As a low-chance random drop, it can also fall from other creatures of Nazmir, not just from one mob.
- The item becomes soulbound on equip, so you cannot buy it on the auction house — you have to farm it yourself.
- The required level to equip it is 50. The item level itself is low and scales, with the exact value depending on the patch.
- Solo farming is no trouble: the creatures of Nazmir have long ceased to be a threat to a max-level character.
Who It Suits Visually
- It fits builds with a Fel and Legion theme: green-tinted demonic sets for demon hunters and warlocks.
- It looks great with plate sets in dark green and black tones, where the blade's green glow works as an accent.
- It contrasts with light paladin armor — a debatable but striking "holy warrior with a Fel weapon" combination.
- It suits "fallen knight" and dark avenger concepts thanks to its aggressive, jagged silhouette.
Tips
1
This is a random drop, so there is no guaranteed way to get the sword — only regular clearing of Nazmir's creatures helps.
2
It is most convenient to farm on a class with high mobility and area damage, to kill packs of mobs faster.
3
The item is soulbound, so go farming ahead of time with the character that needs the appearance.
4
The appearance unlocks in your transmogrification collection as soon as the sword lands in your bags and is recognized by the system.
5
If this exact sword does not drop, consider the fel swords from the table above — they give a similar green-demonic look.
6
While farming in Nazmir, you can also collect other Battle for Azeroth-era appearances that drop from the same creatures.

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.
