Get Deep Thunder

Deep Thunder is a two-handed mace added to World of Warcraft with the The Burning Crusade expansion. It is a massive hammer with a dark haft and a head crackling with swirling storm discharges — the entire model is built around the theme of storm and lightning. The silhouette is heavy and imposing, so the mace reads beautifully on a plate wearer's back.

Historically, it was one of the best crafted maces of its time, with a striking stun on hit. Today its stats are outdated, and the item's value is purely visual: it is a recognizable "storm" two-hander for transmog looks, and at the same time a step in the famous chain of blacksmithing hammers leading to Stormherald.

Deep Thunder does not drop from bosses — it is a Blacksmithing item. It is crafted by a weaponsmith with the Hammersmith specialization.

• Profession — Blacksmithing with skill 375, plus the Hammersmith specialization (the weaponsmith branch).
• The Deep Thunder recipe is learned from a Blacksmithing master after taking the Hammersmith specialization.
• The finished mace binds when picked up, so you can only craft it for your own character.

Reagents for crafting (exact names from Wowhead):

Thunder itself is the previous step of the same chain, also crafted by a Hammersmith. So the path looks like this: first you craft Thunder, then it is used as a reagent for Deep Thunder.

• Harmonizes with looks themed around storm, thunder, and lightning — for example, with blue-gray plate armor.
• Suits concepts of a shaman or an elemental warrior thanks to its storm head.
• Stands out against light golden armor, adding a dark and heavy splash of color.
• Pairs well with cloaks and shields in a cold blue-steel palette.
