Overview

Exacting Mindslicer

Game iconExacting Mindslicer is an epic-quality one-handed sword from the Shadowlands expansion. The model belongs to the weapon style of the Maw's servants: a dark, curved blade with a spiked guard and crimson veins, forged in the smithies of Torghast. Its silhouette is instantly recognizable — it is part of the visual weapon set wielded by the Painsmith's forces in the Sanctum of Domination.

The sword suits any class able to wield one-handed swords: warriors, paladins, demon hunters, rogues, mages, warlocks, and priests in transmogrification appearance. Its dark palette and aggressive profile make the blade a great pick for grim looks.

Source

The sword drops from Painsmith Raznal — the sixth boss of the Sanctum of Domination raid, added in Shadowlands. The boss is located in the Torghast zone.

  • The drop chance is roughly 9.89% per boss kill.
  • The fight takes place at the coordinates of the forge arena.

  • The sword drops on Normal, Heroic, and Mythic difficulties, as well as in Raid Finder if the relevant wing is open.
  • The boss can be soloed at the current maximum level of 90 without much trouble — the stage mechanics and spiked floors stop posing a threat with a large health pool.
  • There is no attempt limit: you can return to the boss every week until you get the item you need.

Visual fit

  • Pairs well with plate sets in dark and bloody tones — the looks of death knights and warriors of the Scourge.
  • Complements sets from the Sanctum of Domination, designed in the aesthetic of Torghast and the Maw.
  • Contrasts with bright holy sets — a debatable but striking choice for paradoxical looks.
  • Fits concepts of the Jailer's servants thanks to its distinctive spiked guard.

Tips

1

The fastest way to farm is to run the raid weekly on Mythic difficulty solo, collecting the entire weapon and armor appearance along the way.

2

Paladins and death knights clear the raid especially fast thanks to their survivability and steady single-target damage.

3

Check several characters at once: each gets an independent drop chance per run.

4

Besides the blade, this boss drops other weapons from the set — do not leave the raid until you have picked up all the loot.

5

If you need the appearance on a specific character, remember that weapon transmogrification becomes available account-wide after first obtaining the item.

6

The path to the boss leads through the previous five bosses of the raid, but at max level they are cleared in a few minutes.
