- Effect: chance on hit — attack power burst
How to obtain
Harbinger of Doom drops only from Kel'Thuzad, so the path to it is a full weekly clear of Naxxramas.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Source | Kel'Thuzad (Naxxramas) |
| Type | Melee DPS trinket |
| Class | Warrior, Rogue, Hunter |
| Tier | Naxxramas (Vanilla endgame) |
On an x5 server Naxxramas is cleared faster — you can realistically close Harbinger of Doom in a few weeks of farming Kel'Thuzad. Discuss priority among DPS in advance.
Who needs it
The trinket is valuable for Fury warriors, rogues and hunters: frequent hits raise the attack power proc rate, giving a clear boost to average DPS. It is an upgrade over AQ40 trinkets.
Farming tactics on x5
How to speed up getting the item:
- Ensure a clean run through every wing of Naxxramas to Kel'Thuzad — without it the drop will not appear.
- Agree on distribution among DPS: warriors, rogues and hunters all want the trinket.
- Until it drops, use AQ40 DPS trinkets (for example high attack power ones) as a stopgap.
Summary
Harbinger of Doom is one of the benchmark DPS trinkets of Vanilla's final tier: the mix of permanent stats and a strong proc makes it a goal for several melee classes. It is worth keeping Naxxramas in the rotation for it.
