Get Radiant Foil
Overview

Radiant Foil is an elegant one-handed rapier-sword of epic quality, added to World of Warcraft with the Midnight expansion. Its slender blade with a bright, "radiant" finish makes it a great choice for noble, fencing-style looks.
Thanks to its light silhouette, the rapier looks great as a dual-wield weapon and paired with a shield. It suits many classes that wield one-handed swords.
Source
- The rapier drops from the reward chest in the vault at the end of Sorties — the solo and group content of the Midnight expansion.
- This chest can be upgraded: over the course of a sortie you need to clear out special Nemesis enemy groups, marked with helmet icons on the map.
- The upgraded chest appears at higher sortie difficulty levels, so valuable loot drops more often there.
- Sorties are completed solo or in a small group and are not tied to the weekly raid lockout.
- The weapon is bind on pickup, so you need to farm it on the character who wants the appearance.
Alternatives / recolors
The Radiant Foil has visually similar slender one-handed swords with a comparable fencing silhouette. No confirmed recolors of this exact model with separate identifiers are established at the time of writing, so focus on the item itself. Look for blades similar in shape among the light one-handed swords of the Midnight expansion.
Who it suits visually
- Suits light sets in bright, golden-white tones.
- Harmonizes with noble, "aristocratic" and fencing-style looks.
- Looks great paired with a shield thanks to its slender silhouette.
- Works as a contrast with dark armor when you need a single bright accent in hand.
Tips
Clear out special Nemesis groups during the sortie: this upgrades the reward chest at the end and increases the chance for valuable loot.
Run sorties at higher difficulty levels — the rewards are better there.
Bring a helper companion along to clear sorties solo more confidently.
If the rapier doesn't drop, repeat the sorties: there's no weekly limit on the content itself.
Watch for the helmet icons on the map — they're the guide for upgrading the chest.
