Get Doomforged Straightedge

Doomforged Straightedge is a one-handed sword that hails from classic World of Warcraft. It is a straight, austere blade in the spirit of Dark Iron dwarf smithing: a broad cutting edge, a simple cruciform guard, and dark metal with a faint warm sheen. The appearance is free of ornate detailing, which makes it a great foundation for brutal "blacksmith" and "gnome-dwarf" looks.

This is a weapon for melee specializations that use Strength. Statistically the sword has long been obsolete, but its understated model is prized by transmog collectors precisely for its versatility: a blade like this fits effortlessly into a wide variety of sets.

The Doomforged Straightedge drops from ordinary enemies in the classic Blackrock Depths dungeon. The specific source is the Anvilrage Guardsman, an elite dwarf you encounter in large numbers throughout the dungeon.

• The sword drops from regular mobs rather than bosses, so your chance of getting the appearance grows with the number of guardsmen you kill.
• Blackrock Depths is a sprawling Dark Iron clan dungeon located in the Searing Gorge.
• This is outdated content, so the dungeon can be cleared solo on a level 90 character.
• The sword is bind on equip, so the appearance can only be unlocked by someone who equips the blade themselves, but it is also occasionally listed on the auction house.

Since the source is rank-and-file mobs, the most reliable approach is simply to run the entire dungeon, cutting down guardsmen along the way: a single run gives you dozens of chances at the drop.

• Pairs well with plate sets in dark-steel and earthy tones — for example, the early warrior sets of the classic era.
• Harmonizes with dwarf and gnome looks in the spirit of Dark Iron clan smithing.
• Works for brutal "soldier" concepts thanks to its simple, functional silhouette.
• Stands out strikingly when paired with a richly decorated shield, set apart by its deliberate simplicity.
