Get Forged Aspirant's Greatsword

Forged Aspirant's Greatsword is the two-handed sword from the entry-level PvP set of The War Within expansion. It is a massive blade with a broad edge and an angular guard, rendered in a strict gray-steel palette with a dark grip. The model belongs to the "forged aspirant" arsenal — the basic appearance handed out for Honor Points in the first PvP season.

The weapon suits any specialization that uses two-handed swords: warriors, death knights, and paladins. Stats do not matter for transmogrification — once bound, the item unlocks its appearance for the wardrobe, and it can be worn on a character of any class with access to two-handed swords.

The model's main value is its restrained "soldier" silhouette without flashy glow. It is a convenient base for strict warrior and knightly looks, easy to pair with armor in neutral tones. The blade reads well at a distance thanks to its large edge.

The Forged Aspirant's Greatsword is bought with Honor Points — the in-game PvP currency of the first season of The War Within. This is the most accessible way to get the appearance: rating and wins in rated matches are not required, you only need to earn Honor in regular battlegrounds or arenas.

The vendor is Velerd, the steward of Honor Point rewards. He stands in the city of Dornogal, the capital of The War Within.

• The appearance is tied to the "forged aspirant" set — the very first tier of the season's PvP gear, so the sword is inexpensive by Honor Point standards.
• Honor Points are farmed in any kind of PvP: regular and rated battlegrounds, arenas, and brawls.
• The item binds on pickup, but to unlock the appearance you only need to obtain it once — there is no need to keep wearing it.
• The sword is part of a single "forged aspirant" appearance set — Velerd also sells the remaining slots of this collection.

• It harmonizes with strict plate sets in gray-steel and dark tones — for example, the basic PvP sets of the same season.
• It fills the two-handed weapon slot for warrior and knightly looks without bright glow or magical effects.
• It suits a mercenary or rank-and-file soldier concept thanks to its practical silhouette free of decorative excess.
• It contrasts nicely with dark leather armor, adding a cold metallic accent to the look.
