Might of Menethil — Transmog Set Guide

Might of Menethil is an epic two-handed mace from the classic Naxxramas raid. It has melee stats: Strength, Stamina, and critical strike rating, which is why it was once considered one of the best two-handed weapons for Warriors, Paladins, and Enhancement Shamans.

Visually, it is a massive pommeled hammer with a heavy faceted striking head on a long shaft. The name references House Menethil, the royal dynasty of Lordaeron to which Arthas belonged. Today the item is valued mainly as an appearance: the imposing silhouette of a classic two-handed mace is instantly recognizable and suits knight and paladin looks.

The mace drops in the Naxxramas raid.

• The source is Kel'Thuzad, the final boss of the raid. He is the final objective, and you must clear all wings of the dungeon to reach him.
• The item binds on pickup, so it cannot be passed to another character — you need to farm it on the hero who wants the appearance.
• The drop chance is low, so several runs may be required.

Naxxramas is an outdated raid, and today it can be cleared solo at max level. No special access requirements are needed to enter: just fly to the raid and clear it up to Kel'Thuzad. Since the farm is weekly, if you have bad luck with the drop, it makes sense to visit the boss once a week.

This model has no widely known color variants. Based on the silhouette of a massive two-handed mace with a similar head, you can pick a replacement among other classic-era weapons.

If this heavy "knightly" silhouette is exactly what matters to you, look for similar two-handed maces among the loot of classic raids from the same period — many of them are crafted in a unified visual style.

• Suits death knight and paladin looks in heavy plate armor.
• The massive shape pairs well with sets in a silvery-steel and dark palette.
• Fitting for "Lordaeron" concepts and looks that reference House Menethil and the fall of Arthas.
• It contrasts with light armor — on characters in cloth or leather it looks deliberately bulky, which is sometimes played up on purpose.
