Warglaive

From Warcraft Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Not to be confused with The Glaive or Master's Glaive.

Warglaives are one-handed, edged weapons most prominently utilized by demon hunters. They are also used by troll shadow hunters and blood elven spellbreakers. Night elves, predominantly the Sentinels, use a specialized variation in the form of moonglaives. The ancient aldrachi were the ultimate glaivemasters[1] and wielded glaives known as warblades, which were forged from rare minerals that could consume their victims' souls.[2]

Notable

A night elf moonglaive.

Notes and trivia

  • In World of Warcraft, warglaive weapons can only be equipped by demon hunters.
  • Warglaives can be transmogrified into one-handed swords and axes.
    • They can technically also be transmogrified into maces, however since demon hunters cannot equip maces, and are the only class that can use warglaives, this is not currently possible.
  • The word "glaive" is also used for a type of single-bladed polearm. This is the sense in which the word is primarily used in the real world, unlike the fictional warglaives.

Patch changes

  • Legion Hotfix (2016-08-09): Glaive weapons can now be enchanted by players.
