Lamplighter's Mercy — Transmog Set Guide

Lamplighter's Mercy is an epic two-handed sword added to World of Warcraft in the The War Within expansion. It is a broad blade in the style of the Arathi lamplighters of the Isle of Dorn: a warm gold-and-brass finish, an openwork guard and pommel echoing the motif of lanterns and the Holy Light. The weapon looks noble and "radiant," without aggressive demonic aesthetics.

It is collected first and foremost for its appearance. The sword carries item-level stats in the 70s range and is available to every class that uses two-handed swords — the warrior, paladin, and death knight. The warm gold palette makes the blade convenient for "holy" and Arathi looks.

The sword is obtained in Delves — the solo and group underground content of the The War Within expansion. It drops not from an ordinary chest, but from a special cache.

• The source is the Hidden Trove, an extra chest that appears in the reward room at the end of a delve.
• For the cache to spawn, you must use the Delver's Bounty item before the fight with the delve's final foe.
• After that, the Hidden Trove appears upon completing a tier 4 or higher delve.
• The bounty itself is obtained in bountiful delves: it rarely drops from ordinary reward chests or from special caches during incursions.
• The sword is just one of many possible items in the Hidden Trove, so you should not count on getting exactly it in a single run.

Delves can be completed solo, so you can gather the blade without a group — you just need to obtain a bounty and regularly open caches.

• Ideal for Arathi looks of the Isle of Dorn — it pairs with the gold-and-white lamplighter sets and the Holy Light theme.
• Harmonizes with "holy" plate sets of the paladin in a white-and-gold palette.
• Looks good with armor in warm brass and honey tones.
• Contrasts with the dark armor of the death knight — the golden blade sets up a "light against darkness" image.
