Ironically, the icon of these 'bolts' is in fact a screw. Bolts have flat heads which you use a wrench to work with.
The icon for this item has always made me laugh. Why? Let's break it down.
"Handful": Clearly it's not. Unless they're so humongous that one constitutes a handful.
"Copper": Looks like a slightly rusty, but silvery, metal to me.
"Bolts": As stated above, actually a screw.How can we players expect Blizz to fix [insert bug, glitch, or OP ability/class here] when they can't even depict a handful of copper bolts correctly?
(I'm joking, but note that Blizz did make the icons for BC bolts and WotLK bolts more accurate.)
Wowhead, where we debate about anything and everything!
