Get Wind-Reaver's Dagger of Quick Strikes

Wind-Reaver's Dagger of Quick Strikes is a one-handed dagger from the Mists of Pandaria expansion. The model is styled after the mantid: a curved chitinous blade in an amber-brown hue with a serrated edge and a hilt resembling the joint of an insect's limb. The model belongs to the mantid weapon family — the same visual line as the amber blades of the Klaxxi faction.

The dagger is named after Kil'ruk the Wind-Reaver, a mantid paragon from the Klaxxi council and the first paragon the player meets in the Dread Wastes. The item is of rare quality and binds to the character, so its value is purely cosmetic: it is a free appearance for your transmog collection that requires neither raids nor reputation.

The dagger is one of the lost treasures of Pandaria. It is not a mob drop but a static object that lies out in the open world and is picked up directly.

• The appearance is obtained from the object Wind-Reaver's Dagger of Quick Strikes in the Dread Wastes zone.
• The treasure has two spawn points, and only one is active at a time. If the item is not at the first point, it is at the second.
• First point: /way 9.7 37 — at the northwestern edge of the zone.
• Second point: /way 71.8 36.1 — in the eastern part of the Dread Wastes, at the base of a cliff.
• It is picked up once per character. Reputation, level, and attunements are not required — you just have to reach the spot.
• Collecting the treasure counts toward the achievement chain: Lost and Found (1 treasure), then "Finders, Keepers" (5), "One Man's Trash..." (10) and Is Another Man's Treasure (20 treasures, rewarding the title "the Relic Hunter").

To reach the Dread Wastes, it is most convenient to fly in from the Townlong Steppes or the Krasarang Wilds — the zone sits in the southwestern part of Pandaria. On a leveled, modern-level character the trip takes a couple of minutes of flight.

• It harmonizes with sets in a natural, chitinous palette — leather and mail kits in brown-amber tones from Mists of Pandaria.
• It looks great paired with amber mantid weapons — for example, with the Amber Slicer of Klaxxi'vess for a matched rogue set.
• It suits "insect" or "mantid swarm" themed looks — the appearance reads as part of a unified mantid set.
• It contrasts with cold blue and silver armor — the warm amber blade becomes a bright accent on neutral plate.
