Get Grieving Spellblade

Grieving Spellblade is an epic-quality one-handed sword added to World of Warcraft in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Statistically it is a typical caster weapon: intellect, critical strike rating and haste, so back in the day it was carried by warlocks, mages and other characters who fight with one hand and cast spells.

For transmogrification, the sword's value lies in its model. It is a short blade with a dark, slightly jagged silhouette and a muted metallic palette — the weapon looks grim and suits "dark" concepts rather than bright ceremonial armor. Because of its modest length, the blade looks great as a dagger-like sword in one hand.

The sword drops in the Naxxramas raid — the flying necropolis of the Scourge, which in Wrath of the Lich King hovers above Dragonblight. This is outdated content, so today the raid can be cleared solo on almost any class and level.

• The drop source is Grand Widow Faerlina, the second boss of the Arachnid Quarter.
• Raid entrance coordinates: /way Dragonblight 87.6 51.0.
• Grand Widow Faerlina is located near the start of the necropolis, and you can reach her within a couple of minutes after entering.
• The sword does not drop every time — it is a random drop from her loot, so you may need several repeat runs.
• The raid lockout allows one run per week per character, so to speed up the farm it is convenient to run several characters.

• It suits dark warlock and mage looks — the blade's muted metal does not clash with smoky and shadowy spell effects.
• It harmonizes with sets in black-and-gray and dark purple tones, especially with cloth armor of a somber style.
• It reads well as a short "dagger" sword in one hand for a rogue or warrior playing a lightweight look.
• It contrasts with bright and gilded armor — a debatable combination, but one that puts the focus on the weapon.
