So the item dropped for my warrior, but before I could loot the item (I'd right clicked to loot all, but before it got to that item) someone blew the horn which moved us to the next area, so I didn't get to loot it.

It didn't show up in my mail later, either. So if you end up with some speed freaks like I did either move quickly to loot or tell them to hold off on the horn so you can loot the item to get him.

Description

You hold King Ymiron's blade and realize what a fierce combatant he would make, were he to fight on your side. Perhaps Odyn could be persuaded to force the vrykul King's spirit to fight alongside your army.
