Stats
Mark of the Chosen is prized for versatility: it isn't tuned for one stat but gives a bit of everything — strength, agility, intellect, spirit and stamina via a proc when you take damage.
Stats:
- Type: trinket
- Effect: chance on being struck to grant +25 all stats for 1 min
- Note: only procs while you are being hit
How to get it
Mark of the Chosen drops from Lord Kazzak, a world boss by the Dark Portal in the Blasted Lands. He is killed by a large group out in the open world, with no dungeon entry.
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Source | Lord Kazzak (world boss) |
| Type | Trinket (on-hit proc) |
| Class | Tanks, hybrids |
| Stage | Pre-raid / open world |
On an x5 server world bosses are killed often and population is high — gathering a Kazzak group is easier than it seems. Mark of the Chosen is especially valuable to tanks: the proc fires exactly when you are holding the damage.
Who needs it
Mark of the Chosen suits tanks and hybrids best. Since the proc is tied to taking damage, it is ideal for a protection warrior or a bear druid who are constantly under attack. The all-stat spike adds both survivability and threat at once.
x5 tactics
Mark of the Chosen shines in roles where you steadily take damage. In a pure DPS slot it loses to specialized trinkets, but for a tank it is a reliable all-rounder.
- Tanks — wear it on bosses and in dungeons where you are constantly hit: the proc stays up almost all the time.
- Hybrids — handy during the transition until you assemble role-specific trinkets.
- In pure DPS with no incoming damage the effect sits idle — pick on-use trinkets there instead.
Summary
Mark of the Chosen is a rare example of a truly versatile Vanilla trinket. Its all-stat proc is especially valuable to tanks and hybrids, and it can be earned in the open world with no raid attunements. For a player who switches roles often it is a convenient go-anywhere item that fills the trinket slot until specialized upgrades appear.
