Durgen's Crescent Axe Stats
The Forever tooltip describes a rare-quality one-handed axe with ID 270256. Your character equips this weapon in the Main Hand slot. Even a Warrior or Rogue with dual wield won't put it in their off-hand. All stats fit within the six lines of the tooltip:
- Item Level 18
- Requires Level 13
- Damage 20–39 at a speed of 2.40
- DPS 12.29
- Bonus +4 Strength
- Binds when picked up
Binds when picked up keeps the axe off the auction house. The game also won't allow you to trade it to another player. That's why our team will guide your character through Hall of Thanes to the final boss. You won't have to assemble a five-player group for each attempt or wait for a tank in Ironforge until Durgen drops the reward.
Hall of Thanes Loot From Durgen Dirgehammer
Durgen drops his loot as the fourth and final boss of Hall of Thanes. This Dark Iron leader enters the fight with two Lesser Stone Golems. He casts an AoE fear effect on the group in the middle of a hall with Dark Iron mobs. Our team handles both the golems and this fear effect while your character remains in the group. You won't have to risk a wipe near the crowd of Dark Iron mobs.
Durgen's loot table includes three additional entries alongside the axe:
- Direhammer Leggings (leather)
- Robes of the Disgraced Thane (cloth)
- Durgen's head for Old Ironforge Incursion
Durgen's head is a special item from Hall of Thanes loot. Alliance players deliver it to King Magni Bronzebeard as part of the Old Ironforge Incursion quest. Magni gives you your choice of Calibrated Blunderbuss (gun), Ironforge Greathammer (hammer), or Deepblaze (wand). Your character will obtain the head from our Durgen kill in Reliquary of Kings if the quest is active in their quest log before the run begins. This saves you a second trip to the dungeon to see Magni.
First Named Drop in WoW Forever
We consider Durgen's axe to be the first named drop in Forever. This named weapon of the Dark Iron leader drops at the end of the earliest new dungeon in World of Warcraft Forever for characters from level 13 to 18. Hall of Thanes does not impose a lockout after a run. That's why our team can start a new attempt without waiting for a reset. We recommend that melee fighters buy Durgen's Crescent Axe at level 13 to gain Strength in their main hand.
