Where It Drops

Solar Spirehawk drops from Rukhmar, an encounter in the raid Draenor (Warlords of Draenor). The Adventure Guide lists it only on Normal. It is one of 14 items in that encounter's loot table. The game files carry no drop chance, so none is shown here.
Rukhmar occasionally appears as a blazing firehawk soaring through the skies high above the Spires of Arak. The origins of the great bird are unknown, though Rukhmar is venerated as a deity by the arakkoa, seen as an embodiment of the sun itself.

What It Looks Like
