Welcome to our ultimate guide to the most overpowered items in Season of Discovery Phase 2. With the phase set to launch on Feb. 8, it's time to gear up and dominate. Here's a breakdown of the items you can't afford to miss.

 

• Blazewind Breastplate & Warforged Chestplate
• WolfHead Helm
• Whirlwind Axe
• Ravager
• Herod's Shoulder & Helmet
• Smotts' Compass
• Manual Crowd Pummeler
• Nifty Stopwatch

 

 

↖ Blazewind Breastplate & Warforged Chestplate

For mail and leather wearers, Blazewind Breastplate (23 agility) and Warforged Chestplate (22 strength) are best-in-slot chest pieces obtained from taking down level 50 Elites in Badlands through Tremors of the Earth (Alliance) and Broken Alliances (Horde). They're certainly a challenge but their high demand means you won't have trouble finding a group.

 

 

 

↖ WolfHead Helm

Druids, do just that with WolfHead Helm. The headpiece, which is obtainable through Leatherworking at level 225, grants 20 energy when shifting into cat form. Combined with furor talent in Restoration tree, it totals 60 energy per shift–a true testament for power shifting that remains relevant well beyond its level even into first tier of TBC.

 

 

↖ Whirlwind Axe

Warriors, Whirlwind Axe has your name on it. Though technically available at level 30 with some assistance, it's part of an elite warrior quest that rewards a weapon better than Deadly Strike of the Hydra by 5 DPS. Its slower speed pairs perfectly with your rotation - especially once you get Sweeping Strikes.

 

 

↖ Ravager

Another Warrior-favorite is Ravager providing even more DPS than Whirlwind Axe. Its special active ability transforms it into AoE damage dealer, making it ideal for mowing down groups of enemies. It can be acquired from Herod in Scarlet Monastery Armory.

 

 

↖ Herod's Shoulder & Helmet

While you're at it don't miss Herod's Shoulder and Helmet as they are some of the coolest looking items in the game. They're perfect for any class that can wear mail.

 

 

↖ Smotts' Compass

This sly Elite in Stranglethorn Vale drops a trinket with 1% dodge making it best-in-slot item for tanks, especially Feral Druids. Quest starts with random NPC in Booty Bay and leads you to this intimidating underwater giant.

 

 

↖ Manual Crowd Pummeler

Making a surprising appearance on our top item list is Manual Crowd Pummeler. This blue mace is particularly valuable for its attack speed increase, making it ideal weapon for druid tanks and DPS. Look out for reworked version of it in Naxxramas which could potentially be charge-free.

 

 

↖ Nifty Stopwatch

Last but certainly not least is Nifty Stopwatch, famous for its 40% speed boost for 10 seconds. It's a prized possession among PvP enthusiasts and can be obtained through quest in Badlands.

 

 

Conclusion

Season of Discovery Phase 2 offers plenty of powerful items that can drastically improve your gameplay. Whether you're a Druid, Warrior or any other class, these are worth grinding. Prepare to embark on quests, take down tough elites and dominate PvP and PvE with these game-changing gears. Stay ahead of the curve and happy hunting!
