Gold-Plated Spear — Transmog Set Guide

"Gold-Plated Spear" is a two-handed polearm of uncommon quality with a distinctly goblin aesthetic. The appearance is a long spear with a massive gilded tip and ornate trim in the spirit of the Cartels' lavish opulence: gleaming metal, a deliberately expensive look, and the goblin love of flashy gold.

The item was introduced in patch 11.1.0 of The War Within expansion alongside the Undermine zone and belongs to the "gold-plated" weapon series, which shares a common theme and color scheme. The model fits mercenary and wheeler-dealer looks well, and the golden trim makes it a standout accent against more subdued armor.

The appearance is tied to polearms, so it can be used in transmogrification by warriors, paladins, death knights, monks, demon hunters, and druids — all classes that can wield polearms.

"Gold-Plated Spear" is open-world loot from the Undermine zone, available in The War Within. The item is not tied to a raid or a specific boss: it drops from reward caches you earn from activities across the zone.

• Zone: Undermine, requires The War Within expansion.
• Source type: open-world loot, not a raid drop.
• Drops from reward caches earned through quests and events in the zone, and also appears as a reward from a local chain of errands.
• Binds to your character on pickup.
• There is no limit on attempts: the caches can be farmed regularly by repeating local quests and events.

To increase the drop rate, complete Undermine quests and events that grant reward caches — that is where the gold-plated weapons most often come from.

• Goblin wheeler-dealer and Cartel mercenary looks: the golden trim emphasizes the theme of wealth and ostentatious luxury.
• Sets in a golden-yellow palette where the weapon works as a bright accent.
• Ceremonial and parade looks of a guard or standard-bearer, where the gleam of the metal feels appropriate.
• Contrast against the dark or industrial armor of Undermine: gold against steel and rust looks especially striking.
