Earthen Scallywag's Kris — Transmog Set Guide

Earthen Scallywag's Kris is an epic one-handed dagger added to World of Warcraft in patch 11.0.7 of The War Within alongside the Siren Isle zone. It is a short stabbing weapon with a wavy blade in the spirit of a true kris, rendered in a stony, earthy palette: a grey-brown grip, dull metal, and a rough finish. The model belongs to the earthen weapon set from The War Within dungeons — the same series as the daggers that drop in this expansion's local dungeons.

The dagger is intended for classes that use intellect daggers: mage, druid, priest, shaman, warlock, and evoker. For transmogrification, the role's class affiliation does not matter — the appearance is unlocked in the wardrobe and is available to any character of the matching weapon type. The item's main value is purely cosmetic: the earthy color scheme fits well into looks built around the earthen theme, the stone culture of Khaz Algar, and adventures on Siren Isle.

The primary way to obtain the dagger is to buy it from a vendor. This is the most reliable path: the item does not depend on luck and is available as soon as you save up the currency.

• The dagger is sold by quartermaster Argarom — an earthen who trades full-body gear for the local currency.
• The vendor's location is Siren Isle, a spot in the eastern part of the island where the Dornogal expedition has set up camp. Coordinates: /way 67.6 41.6.
• The price is 175 units of the Flame-Blessed Iron currency.
• Flame-Blessed Iron is earned from practically any activity on the island: killing mobs and event bosses, opening treasure chests, and completing quests.
• The purchase requires no reputation or prerequisite quests — you just need to reach Siren Isle and save up the needed amount.

There is also a second path — drops. The dagger can drop from rare creatures and treasure chests all across Siren Isle, as well as from the Earthen Landlubber's Cache container, which is awarded for completing the weekly storm phase. This method depends on chance, so you should not rely on it as your main approach — buying from Argarom is faster and more predictable.

You can reach Siren Isle from Dornogal: after a short introductory quest chain, an airship opens up that ferries you to the island. Once the introductory chain is complete, a second route appears as well — a drilling rig.

The earthen weapon model from The War Within dungeons exists in several color variants. The closest related daggers and weapons from the same set:

The Earthen Landlubber's Knife uses exactly the same earthy-grey coloring as the Earthen Scallywag's Kris — it is effectively the same look in knife form. The Earthen Deckhand's Dagger carries a different shade of the same silhouette and suits those who want a slight color contrast between the main and off hand. The Earthen Scallywag's Saber is a one-handed sword from the same earthen weapon set, a handy pair for a set that needs not a dagger but a longer blade.

• A natural pairing is the earthen scallywag cloth set from the same vendor: the Earthen Scallywag's Vestment chest and the Earthen Scallywag's Cowl headpiece. Weapon and armor are made in a single stony-earthy palette and come together into a cohesive look.
• It looks good in sets built around the earthen theme and the stone culture of Khaz Algar — muted stone, bronze, and ochre.
• It suits classes that wear cloth and use intellect daggers: mage, priest, or warlock looks in an earthy palette.
• The blade's restrained texture contrasts with bright glowing effects — the dagger works as a neutral anchor if the rest of the set is overloaded with glow.
• For dual wielding, you can take the Earthen Scallywag's Kris in one hand and its recolor, the Earthen Landlubber's Knife, in the other — the look will be fully symmetrical.
