Get Grom'tor's Charge
Overview

Grom'tor's Charge is a rare-quality one-handed axe originating from The Burning Crusade. It is a classic orcish model: a heavy, broad blade with a jagged edge and a rough haft, styled in the spirit of the Warsong clan.
The weapon references the lineage of Oronok Torn-heart — the words "We shed blood in the name of justice..." are engraved on the item. This lore touch makes the axe a great choice for orc-themed looks, especially if you are assembling a set built around the Draenor and Outland theme.
The item level is 80, and it binds when picked up. Its stats are long outdated, so the axe's value today lies purely in its appearance for transmogrification.
Source
The axe is awarded for completing the quest The Cipher of Damnation - Grom'tor's Charge — the final step of the lengthy "Cipher of Damnation" chain in Outland.
- The location is Shadowmoon Valley, the last Outland zone available since The Burning Crusade.
- The quest is given by Grom'tor, son of Oronok, at Coilskar Point in the eastern part of the valley.
- The final stage requires finding the first fragment of the Cipher of Damnation and the key to the Coilskar chest.
- The reward is granted once per character — it is a quest item, not a drop with a repeatable chance.
- The "Cipher of Damnation" chain is fairly long and tied to the story of Oronok's lineage, so set aside time for the preceding quests in advance.
Today the entire chain can be completed solo on any class: the enemies of Shadowmoon Valley have long posed no threat to a character of current level.
Visual Pairing
- It fits well into Warsong clan orc looks and the Outland theme thanks to its rough forging and dark metal.
- It harmonizes with plate and mail sets in brown-and-steel tones, where a brutal accent on the weapon is needed.
- Paired one-handed axes of this model in both hands create an aggressive "barbaric" silhouette for a warrior or hunter.
- It contrasts with golden and bright sets — a debatable but expressive combination for those who enjoy a rough weapon texture next to ceremonial armor.
Tips
Set aside time for the entire "Cipher of Damnation" chain: the axe is its final reward, and you cannot obtain it by skipping the previous quests.
Before turning in the quest, check the offered reward options and choose the axe specifically if you are collecting this model.
To reach Shadowmoon Valley, use the Outland portal network from Shattrath or go directly through Hellfire Peninsula.
The chain is easily completed solo — a separate group is not needed even at a low character level.
If you plan to collect several weapons of Oronok's lineage, keep an alternate character ready: the quest cannot be turned in again on a single hero.
After acquisition, the appearance itself is saved to your appearance collection and is available for transmogrification on any suitable class on the account.
