Overview

Goblet of Glittering Favor

Game iconGoblet of Glittering Favor is an epic-quality one-handed bludgeoning weapon with Intellect stats, meaning it suits mana-using classes: priests, mages, warlocks, shamans, druids, monks, and paladins in a caster role. The model is a massive golden chalice on a short haft, decorated with gems and Zuldazari ornaments — the weapon clearly echoes the golden opulence of the troll capital.

The item was added in the Battle for Azeroth expansion alongside the opening of the Battle of Dazar'alor raid in patch 8.1.0. For transmog collectors, it is a striking "chalice mace" that fits well into sets with a golden, jewel-themed look.

Goblet of Glittering Favor drops from Opulence — a treasure guardian and one of the bosses of the Battle of Dazar'alor raid. This is Battle for Azeroth content that has long been outdated in terms of power, so the item is of interest purely as a transmog.

  • The raid belongs to Battle for Azeroth and is farmed for transmog rather than stats.
  • The item's drop chance is around 6.23%, so several runs may be needed.
  • The loot is available on every difficulty where this boss appears: Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, and Mythic.
  • Loot is not limited once per week on the item itself, but the weekly lockout applies to the raid difficulties — it is most convenient to farm across several characters.

The quirk of Opulence is that the fight does not go well solo. Before the boss itself there is a "hallway" with two statues and elementals, and the boss has a mechanic that effectively requires help: the statues must be destroyed simultaneously, and the protective effect from the hallway is hard to obtain alone. In practice, it is easier to go in with a small group or join a ready group that clears the raid even on Mythic difficulty in a couple of minutes.

Who It Suits Visually

  • It pairs with golden and jewel-themed sets in Zuldazari and troll styles — for example, with armor in a yellow-gold palette.
  • It harmonizes with "wealthy priest" or "treasure merchant" looks: the bright golden metal and gems reinforce the theme of abundance.
  • It contrasts with dark and shadow sets — the golden chalice creates an accent, a debatable but memorable choice for a warlock or Shadow priest.
  • It looks great on casters who suit an unusually shaped "artifact weapon" instead of a classic staff or dagger.

Tips

1

Do not try to kill Opulence strictly solo: the statue mechanic and the protective effect from the hallway are hard to handle alone. Bring at least one partner or join a ready group.

2

The fastest way is to join a group farming the raid for the mount and transmog: such groups clear the Battle of Dazar'alor very quickly.

3

Since the item has a low drop chance, it makes sense to farm the boss on several characters in different weeks.

4

Go in on the highest available difficulty — there is a higher chance of getting several transmog items in a single run.

5

Don't forget to enable showing all possible loot in the raid window so you don't miss the items you need.

6

Once obtained, the item can immediately be unlocked in your transmog collection and used on any character that this weapon type suits.
