Magister's Cleaver — Transmog Set Guide

Magister's Cleaver is an epic-quality one-handed axe added to World of Warcraft with the Midnight expansion. The blade is styled after the blood elves: a curved edge with a gilded pattern and red inlays that are characteristic of Silvermoon weaponsmithing.

The weapon is crafted by blacksmiths and suits classes that use one-handed axes. The item is part of the "magister" line of Midnight blacksmithing weapons — a series with a shared silhouette and a common set of reagents, united by the theme of the magisters of Silvermoon.

Magister's Cleaver is a product of the Blacksmithing profession in the Midnight expansion. It is not a boss drop but a crafted item that a blacksmith assembles from a recipe.

• The recipe is learned from Plans: Magister's Cleaver, which requires Midnight Blacksmithing skill level 50.
• The plans are sold by vendors in Silvermoon for an artisan currency; the entire "magister" weapon line is available there as well.
• The build uses Silvermoon Weapon Wrap — a reagent crafted by leatherworkers and sold on the auction house.
• The finished weapon binds on pickup, so the unlocked appearance stays on your character; when ordered from a patron blacksmith, the item can be obtained even without the profession yourself.
• For the appearance collection, it is enough to craft or obtain the item once — the item level of 246 is irrelevant for transmog.

• It suits blood elf ensembles and the Silvermoon theme — the gilded pattern echoes the armor of magisters and blood knights.
• It harmonizes with plate and mail sets in crimson and gold tones — for example, with sin'dorei warrior or hunter looks.
• It contrasts with cold blue-silver sets — a debatable but striking accent.
• It looks great paired with another weapon from the magister series for a unified character style.
