Get Obsidium Cleaver
Overview

Obsidium Cleaver is an epic one-handed axe with a fiery, volcanic styling. Its massive dark blade with a jagged edge looks as if it were cast from cooled lava, with red-hot veins running across its surface. The model comes from the weapon set of the Firelands raid and captures the theme of flame and molten rock beautifully.
This is a one-handed axe with item level 46 and a required character level of 35. It is bind on equip, meaning it can be freely bought and sold on the auction house until it is equipped. The appearance is sought after for fiery and "volcanic" looks on any class that can wield one-handed axes.
Source
The appearance is obtained in the Firelands raid on Mount Hyjal — a raid from the Cataclysm expansion.
- The axe drops as random loot from minions and other trash mobs throughout the raid, rather than from a specific boss.
- Since the item only becomes soulbound when equipped, you can farm it on one character and mail or sell it on the auction house to another.
- In addition, the same axe can be purchased from the gear vendor inside the Firelands for the
Crystallized Firestone currency, which also drops from the raid's minions. - The raid is long outdated and can be soloed without any trouble on any class of an appropriate level.
Who It Suits Visually
- Ideal for fiery and volcanic looks — especially for a warrior or paladin in red-and-black plate.
- It harmonizes with sets that feature glow and red-hot accents, such as Cataclysm-era tier gear.
- It contrasts with cold, icy sets — it can become a striking "fire versus ice" accent.
- It looks great paired with a second fiery one-handed weapon for a dual-axe berserker look.
- It fits the theme of fire elementals and the Twilight's Hammer cult from Cataclysm.
Tips
The axe only becomes soulbound when equipped, so the fastest method is to buy it on the auction house if someone has already listed one.
When farming it yourself, head into the Firelands and clear minions: the axe drops randomly from trash mobs, not from bosses.
At the same time, collect Crystallized Firestone — you can buy the same axe from the gear vendor right inside the raid with it.
The raid is outdated and can be soloed, so you can farm calmly on any leveled character.
The appearance belongs to the one-handed axe class — it can be transmogged onto any one-handed weapon of this type by an eligible class.
For a complete fiery look, pair the axe with armor featuring red-hot accents and a shield or second weapon in the same palette.

Started playing back in Pandaria, when the pandaren were still a novelty. Got stuck on Monk because it's the only class where you don't get dizzy after a dash. Tries to manage both tanking and kicking enemies in the face.
