Overview

Время приказа

Game iconWeight of Command is an epic one-handed mace added to World of Warcraft with the Midnight expansion. The model belongs to the weapon set of the Voidspire raid: a heavy mace head with faceted inlays and a muted purple-black Void glow that echoes the dungeon's overall color theme.

The mace carries the Intellect stat, so as an actual gear piece it is used by classes that work with one-handed weapons and Intellect: paladins, druids, priests, shamans, monks, and Keepers. For transmogrification, the appearance is available to any class that can wield one-handed maces.

The item's value lies precisely in its appearance. By the current Midnight season, gear of this level is no longer top-tier in power, and players farm the mace for the look it brings to their sets.

Source

Weight of Command drops from Imperator Averzian — the first of the six bosses of the Voidspire raid.

  • The raid belongs to the first Midnight season and is tuned for level 90.
  • The dungeon entrance is located in the central part of the zone: /way #2405 45.5 64.4.
  • The mace drops on all four raid difficulties. The item level depends on the chosen difficulty: 233 in Raid Finder, 246 on Normal, 259 on Heroic, and 272 on Mythic. The appearance is identical, however — any difficulty will do for transmog.
  • This is the first boss, so reaching it is quick: you don't need to clear the whole raid to get a chance at the drop.
  • Loot from raid bosses refreshes once a week per character within the weekly lockout, but you can enter the raid and try your luck as many times as you like — the limit only applies to guaranteed rewards.

The appearance is counted as learned once the item lands in your bags, even if you never equipped it. After that, the mace can be sold or scrapped — the look will remain in your collection.

Alternatives / Recolors

There are no separate confirmed recolors with different names for this mace: the Weight of Command appearance is the same across all difficulties of the Voidspire raid, from Raid Finder to Mythic mode. You only need to obtain the item on any one of them.

If you need a similar silhouette of a massive one-handed mace in a dark palette, it makes sense to browse the selection of epic one-handed maces on Wowhead and pick a model to match your set by hand.

Who It Suits Visually

  • It harmonizes with sets in the purple-black tones of the Void and the void — especially with sets from the same Voidspire raid.
  • It suits Shadow priest, shaman, and Keeper looks that lean on dark and cosmic shades.
  • It looks striking against the bright plate armor of a paladin — a debatable but eye-catching combination for those who enjoy playing on contrast.
  • It complements "heavy" concepts focused on bludgeoning weapons, where a large mace head is needed rather than an elegant silhouette.

Tips

1

The fastest way to farm is to enter for the first boss only and leave the raid: the part of the dungeon you need is cleared in a couple of minutes.

2

Get into the habit of checking the drop on several difficulties each week — the appearance counts from any of them, and an extra Raid Finder run costs almost nothing in time.

3

The mace is convenient to farm on characters of the right classes during a fresh season: while the gear is still relevant, a raid run brings both the look and useful loot.

4

If the item drops but is already marked as learned in your collection, you can scrap it right away — the appearance will be kept.

5

For transmog, a version of any item level will do, so don't wait specifically for a Heroic or Mythic drop just for the look.

6

The first boss is faster to clear in a group thanks to the cell-capture mechanic, but with enough power carried over from past seasons the boss can be taken down with a small party too.
