While the quest text says you'll be given a weapon (for which you have gathered materials earlier), only some class/spec combos will it; everyone else won't get anything, not even a complementary monetary addition to the standard quest gold.

A bit disappointing, but eh.

This quest has been reported on WoW forums by many people as slightly bugged. For a lot of people, including myself, after completing this, they do not receive their promised reward, OR the meta achievement.

For some people, relogging worked, others had to hearth to org/equivalent. For a few, nothing seemed to work until they logged in the next day.

Eventually, you should end up with the achievement.

Edit: scratch slightly bugged, this quest is in dire need of a fix. People getting random achievements, titles and reports of a raid-quality staff have been popping up...
