Maw of the Void — Transmog Set Guide

Maw of the Void is an epic-quality two-handed blunt mace added to World of Warcraft in The War Within expansion (patch 11.2). The model is built around a Void motif: a pulsing black-and-purple singularity hangs from the head in a metal frame, surrounded by warped space and void particles. The silhouette is massive and ominous, leaning into a cosmic, "all-consuming" aesthetic.

The weapon occupies the two-handed blunt weapon slot and suits the classes that wield it — warriors, paladins, death knights, and druids. Beyond its looks, the item has a thematic on-use effect that pulls loot from killed enemies toward you, making it a recognizable "void" accessory for any set.

The mace is obtained in the Manaforge Omega raid — the final The War Within raid on the planet K'aresh. The source of the appearance is the raid's last boss, Nexus-King Salhadaar, who seeks to awaken the all-consuming Dimensius at the heart of the complex.

• The mace drops directly from Nexus-King Salhadaar's loot with a chance of around 4.2% per kill.
• The appearance is available on Normal, Heroic, and Mythic difficulties — Normal and Heroic share one variant, while Mythic mode grants a separate model variant.
• This is a raid boss, so the usual weekly loot lock applies to it on each difficulty.
• The item becomes soulbound on pickup, so collect the appearance on the character who needs it.

As The War Within content, the raid has long stopped being current and is farmed solo for the appearance. At the max level of 90, you can realistically solo Nexus-King Salhadaar on Normal and Heroic, running the raid once a week.

The model has at least two variants: a shared one for Normal and Heroic difficulty, and a separate Mythic variant that drops only from Mythic Nexus-King Salhadaar. The singularity head silhouette is unique to this mace, so it has no full recolors from other sources. If you want exactly this appearance, there is only one source — Nexus-King Salhadaar in Manaforge Omega.

• It harmonizes with sets in a black-and-purple, cosmic palette — looks for Void servants and void knights.
• It pairs with mail and plate sets featuring void and starry motifs — for concepts from The War Within theme.
• It fits looks for death knights and warriors that lean into a "dark," otherworldly aesthetic.
• It contrasts with bright gilded plate — a debatable but striking pairing of radiant armor with a void weapon.
• It works as a meaning-laden accent in sets that play on the Void and the cosmos, thanks to the pulsing singularity on the head.
