Overview

Левая рука Старины Джона

Game iconOld Jon's Left Hand is a rare-quality fist weapon from the Battle for Azeroth expansion. Despite belonging to the "fist weapon" class, it isn't the usual knuckle-duster: the model is designed as a pirate hook that replaces the hand. Dark metal, a rough mount on the stump and a boatswain's flair make this item one of the best finds for pirate looks.

For transmogrification this weapon is interesting precisely because of its unconventional silhouette. Most fist weapons are claws and knuckle-dusters, while a hook is rare in this class, so Old Jon's Left Hand stands out against the typical models.

The item is obtained on Island Expeditions — a special Battle for Azeroth mode where a small group lands on an island and gathers resources while fighting off enemies and a rival team.

  • The weapon drops from Island Expedition rewards, including the loot caches granted for completing expeditions.
  • The mode is available at different difficulty levels; for farming the appearance, the fastest available option works best.
  • The drop is cosmetic and not guaranteed — it's a random reward from the shared pool of expedition items.
  • The item is Bind on Equip and flagged as personal loot, so you need to farm it on the character who wants the appearance.

Island Expeditions belong to previous-expansion content, so at max level they are cleared quickly and solo, which is convenient for farming cosmetics.

Who It Suits Visually

  • It perfectly completes pirate and boatswain looks together with a tricorn hat and nautical-themed leather armor.
  • It harmonizes with dark leather sets in a brown-and-black palette.
  • It suits rogues and demon hunters, making the look more cutthroat.
  • It contrasts well with formal armor — the hook adds a touch of danger to a neat outfit.

Tips

1

For farming, choose an Island Expedition with the shortest route and fastest resource gathering — that way you'll get more attempts per hour.

2

It's most convenient to farm at max level solo: old expeditions no longer pose a threat.

3

The expeditions' cosmetic rewards are shared across the whole pool, so along the way you'll also collect other weapon and armor appearances.

4

Don't forget to open the loot caches: they also drop cosmetic expedition items.

5

Once the appearance is added to your collection, you don't need to keep the weapon itself — the look is saved forever.

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.
