Stats by Level

Before any upgrade, Spear of Rethu scales with the wearer from level 1 to level 40, and its item level always equals the wearer’s level.

4 upgrade tokens raise that cap: Weathered Heirloom Scabbard to level 45, Battle-Hardened Heirloom Scabbard to level 50, Eternal Heirloom Scabbard to level 60 and Awakened Heirloom Scabbard to level 70.

Fully upgraded, at level 70 it is item level 70 with +16 Agility, +24 Stamina, +32 Critical Strike and 157 armor, and deals 30 to 55 damage at 3.60 speed (11.8 damage per second).

Other Agility heirlooms

Heirlooms for the other slots with Agility among their stats, up to three per slot, the closest stat lines first.

How the numbers add up

Agility on Spear of Rethu rises from +2 at level 10 to +16 at level 70, a gain of 14. The largest rise between two listed levels is +4, from level 10 to level 20. With no upgrade token the Agility stops at +8 at level 40, so the tokens account for the last 8 points.

The level cap starts at 40. The 4 upgrade tokens lift it by 5, 5, 10 and 10 levels in turn, to a final cap of 70, which is 30 levels above the base cap.

Of the 11 differently named two-hand heirlooms, 5 list Agility, 11 list Stamina and 7 list Critical Strike among their stat types.

No other two-hand heirloom shares the source line Profession: Archaeology.

Counted from the retail client’s heirloom, item and scaling tables; nothing here is estimated.
