Get Zin'rokh, Destroyer of Worlds

Zin'rokh, Destroyer of Worlds is a two-handed sword with an unmistakable troll silhouette: a wide, jagged blade in a dark green hue, a bone hilt, and a skull-topped pommel. It is one of the most iconic weapon models of the Classic era, prized by transmog collectors for its cult look and its reputation as one of the rarest swords in the game.

The sword is tied to the lore of the Gurubashi trolls and the cult of Hakkar, the Blood God. Its grim, almost ritualistic aesthetic suits the looks of barbarians, dark warriors, and devotees of the blood cult. Despite stats that are modest by modern standards, players have hunted this blade for years purely for the look.

The sword originally dropped from the final boss named Hakkar in the old Zul'Gurub raid. The drop chance was low — around 5% — and the item itself was bound to the character on pickup.

• This version of the sword stopped being available with the launch of Cataclysm, when the original Zul'Gurub raid was removed from the game.
• It is no longer possible to obtain this exact item from Hakkar in the modern version of the game.

Fortunately, the very same look returned to the game through the Archaeology profession. The Zin'rokh, Destroyer of Worlds version, assembled as a troll archaeology project, is account-bound and looks identical to the original.

• It is a rare troll artifact: creating it requires a high Archaeology skill and a large number of troll fragments.
• The main difficulty is not gathering the fragments, but getting the project to appear at all: troll projects show up randomly and rarely.
• Troll dig sites are concentrated in the Eastern Kingdoms — that is exactly where you should search for fragments using the survey skill.
• Many collectors spend months or even years on this project, so stock up on patience.

• The dark green jagged blade and bone hilt pair well with leather and mail sets built around troll and tribal themes.
• The skull on the pommel reinforces the looks of dark warriors and adepts of the blood cult.
• The sword clashes with light golden-white sets, so it works less well for paladin-style looks.
• It harmonizes with green-swamp and earthy armor color palettes.
