WoW Forever’s First Big Secret Has Been Discovered by Players
Players have uncovered the first major hidden quest chain in WoW Forever, beginning with an Ancient Heirloom ring that appears to have no useful stats. The discovery matters because it shows the new version of World of Warcraft contains secrets beyond its familiar Classic content, and the chain’s final reward remains unknown.
The scavenger hunt involves finding a sword hilt with a specific torch, locating a blade and cleansing a Befouled Water Globe. Players have cleared Dire Maul’s Capital Gardens and spoken to Prince Tortheldrin, whose dialogue points towards earning Honored reputation with the Shendralar faction; the community suspects the reward involves the swords Eluvi’ana and Eluvi’tor.
In short
- A ring starts WoW Forever’s first major secret quest.
- Players suspect two swords are the reward.
- A Shendralar reputation grind may be required.
