This quest is available to hunters only and awards the weapon piece of the Trappings of the Unseen Path.

Trappings of the Unseen Path


  • Honored: Ring - Signet of the Unseen Path (quest)

  • Revered: Cloak - Cloak of the Unseen Path (quest)

  • Exalted: Weapon - Scythe of the Unseen Path (quest)

This quest requires the Qiraji Spiked Hilt, which can drop from any of the later boss in the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, as well as idols and scarabs which can either drop off trash or can be found inside Scarab Coffers.

Even though it is obtainable at any reputation level, players must reach Exalted with the Cenarion Circle before being able to complete this quest.

I started at about 5k revered reputation with Cenarion Circle when I decided to get this. The hardest part was finishing the move to exalted rep, and spent about 1 week or so doing the badge quests overall, though I alrdy had 7 tactical badges, but those are easiest of the 3 to complete personally. Spent about 200g to gather supplies to complete the logistics badges.

The hilt needed for this is a chance drop off a couple of the bosses in AQ20, the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, namely Moam, Ossirian, Ayamiss, and according to WoWhead, Buru as well.

The idols and scarabs are just the random chance drops off mobs in AQ20 and AQ40. For a raiding guild, obtaining these is not difficult at all, but can be quite expensive on the AH.

It was worth it to get this, my original intention for exalted CC rep was for:

but this was a nice addition as well to dual wield with Doom's Edge should I be forced into melee combat for a short duration of time.

Description

The Qiraji and their servants wield items made with the rarest and finest materials: bones from gargantuan ancient creatures, gems from the depths of the earth, metals pure and strong. Just the sight of Qiraji artifacts fills me with an urge to practice my craft with their shattered and smelted pieces. Prove your allegiance to the Circle, {name}, and I will make you a powerful weapon from the finest Qiraji materials.
