Khor, Hammer of the Corrupted — Transmog Set Guide
Overview

Khor, Hammer of the Corrupted is an epic-quality two-handed bludgeoning mace from the Battle for Azeroth expansion. It is a massive war hammer forged in the likeness of the titan keepers' weaponry: a heavy head with faceted metal plates, glowing inlays of titan energy, and dark streaks of Old God corruption running along the haft. The silhouette deliberately echoes Taloc himself — a keeper that the Old Gods turned against his own creators.
This is the very weapon wielded by the first boss of the Uldir raid. The model is large and reads clearly from a distance, so the hammer looks great on characters built around a brutal, "mechanical" theme. Its palette is cold metal with a greenish-gold glow, tying it to other items with a titan motif.
Source
The hammer drops from Taloc, the first boss of the Uldir raid. This is an ancient titan laboratory in the heart of Nazmir, opened in the Battle for Azeroth expansion.
- The drop chance is about 1.74%, so the item rarely drops in a single run.
- The hammer drops on any difficulty (Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, Mythic), so the most accessible mode is enough for transmog.
- Taloc stands right at the raid entrance, and you can reach him within a minute.
- The raid is long outdated, so it can be soloed on any class at the current level — no group needed.
- Boss spawn point:
/way Nazmir 52.4 30(entrance to Uldir).
Taloc fights in two phases: between them he spreads damaging pools across the floor, but in solo mode at max level this poses no difficulty whatsoever.
Alternatives
This model has a "mirror" variant with the same appearance but a different purpose and color scheme.
| Name | Source | Wowhead |
|---|---|---|
| Taloc, Uldir raid (illusion variant for the transmog collection) |
The "Khor, Hammer of the Guardian" variant is an illusion item: it is not equipped as a weapon but instead adds the appearance directly to your warband's transmog collection. If what matters to you is the look rather than the weapon itself, this version unlocks the appearance guaranteed on drop.
There are no close silhouette recolors of the "Khor" model itself in the game — it is unique to Uldir's titan theme.
Who It Suits Visually
- It harmonizes with titan- and Mechagon-themed sets — cold metal with a greenish-gold glow.
- It suits looks built around the Old God corruption motif: the dark streaks on the metal echo the sets from Uldir.
- It contrasts strikingly with warm-toned plate armor — a debatable but expressive accent.
- Because of the large head, the hammer reads well on tall race models such as draenei, orcs, and tauren.
Tips
Run Uldir once a week on several characters — each one gives an independent chance at the drop.
Take the most accessible difficulty: it makes no difference for the appearance, and Raid Finder clears the fastest.
If you want to guarantee the appearance, deliberately farm the "Khor, Hammer of the Guardian" variant — it adds the look straight to your collection.
Classes with high movement speed and strong self-healing are optimal — for example, a paladin or a demon hunter: they run to Taloc quickly and don't fall behind on survivability.
The appearance is saved account-wide once learned, so there's no need to farm it again on other characters.
Don't confuse the hammer with the same-named item "Khor, Hammer of the Guardian": the first is a full-fledged weapon, the second is an illusion for the collection.
Taloc has no mechanics that block a solo clear, so the farm is safe on any class.
