Relentless Gladiator's Decapitator — Transmog Set Guide
Overview

Relentless Gladiator's Decapitator is a two-handed battle axe from Arena Season 7 of the Wrath of the Lich King era. It is a massive double-bladed greataxe with broad crescent blades and a dark haft, finished in the blue-steel palette characteristic of the Relentless set, with cold highlights. The weapon's silhouette is heavy and aggressive, instantly reading as a high-rank arena reward.
The axe belongs to the season's elite PvP set and was long a status trophy for rated players. Today the item's combat value is irrelevant — it is sought for its recognizable "gladiator" look, which fits well into the plate ensembles of warriors, paladins, and death knights.
Source
The weapon is part of the Arena Season 7 rewards and is now bought with honor marks from vendors of legacy PvP gear.
- The vendors are located in Dalaran above the Crystalsong Forest (Northrend), near the dueling area.
- For the Alliance, the axe is sold by Arcanist Uovril of the Silver Covenant.
- For the Horde, the same look is available from Magister Arlan of the Sunreavers.
- The purchase currency is the
Mark of Honor. These marks are exchanged for legacy PvP weapons and armor with no rating requirements. - There are no longer any season or rank restrictions: the look is available to any character of a suitable class who has saved up enough marks.
Marks of Honor are earned from wins in battlegrounds and epic battlegrounds, and also drop from daily and weekly PvP rewards, so you can accumulate them entirely through random PvP without rated play.
Alternatives
The Relentless set is just one of the "gladiator" seasons of Wrath of the Lich King, and the axe has direct color "siblings" with the same silhouette from neighboring seasons.
- The Furious and Wrathful sets of the same expansion use the same greataxe model in a different color scheme — their looks are bought from the same Dalaran vendors for honor marks.
- If you want exactly this silhouette but in a colder or darker palette, compare the available colors right in the transmogrification window using the two-handed axe filter.
- A similar heavy double-bladed greataxe can also be found among the raid loot of the same period — a convenient substitute if you don't have PvP currency on hand.
Who It Suits Visually
- It combines into a single look with the plate set of the Relentless Gladiator from the same season — the axe was designed as part of it.
- It harmonizes with dark-blue and steel plate, where the cold highlights of the blades support the overall palette.
- It stands out in contrast on red and gold paladin sets, becoming a bright accent of a stern PvP look.
- It suits concepts of fearsome veteran warriors and death knights who need a large, recognizable weapon with an aggressive silhouette.
Tips
Two-handed axes are wielded by warriors, paladins, and death knights — try the look on exactly these classes.
Stockpile honor marks in regular battlegrounds: no rating is needed to buy legacy gear.
Visit the vendor for the entire Relentless set at once — the weapon and armor are sold by the same NPC, so you can assemble the full look in a single trip.
Before buying, check the two-handed axe filter to see whether you have already unlocked a similar silhouette from a neighboring PvP season: the colors are easy to mix up.
To reach the Dalaran vendors faster, use the Ring of the Kirin Tor teleport to Northrend Dalaran or the corresponding portal — this is the old Dalaran above the Crystalsong Forest, not its version from later expansions.
The look is added to your collection immediately after purchase, after which the item no longer needs to be kept in your bags.
