From Zarakel Cavern and The Great Vault to even newer, more dangerous realms, there’s always a profitable way to risk your neck in World of Warcraft. Shadowflame Essence is one of the rarest reagents in the game, and there’s no guarantee of success when attempting to collect it. On the bright side of Azeroth, you won’t need much of it to whip up all of Blizzard‘s related recipes. Grab the few feeble flames you need, and you’ll have all the power you require. Here’s how to get Shadowflame Essence in World of Warcraft.

Time to take a break from Fyrakk Assaults. To get Shadowflame Essence in World of Warcraft, you must visit the Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible raid. During this challenge, you can defeat several great bosses, each of which can drop Shadowflame Essence. At the same time, the chance of success is negligible, so not every raid will bring you this item. Here are some of the mobs you can slay to claim this item:

  • Kazzara, the Hellforged
  • Magmorax
  • Zskarn
  • Warlord Kagni
  • Neltharion

In addition, you can buy Shadowflame Essence at the auction house. That said, the price may exceed all your expectations. We don’t recommend resorting to this method unless necessary. It is much more efficient to build a team with a hero and farm Shadowflame Essence on your own.

How to Use Shadowflame Essence

Shadowflame Essence is a key reagent in several items, but it’s far from the only ingredient you need. At least you’ll only need one for each crafting project, so you won’t be stuck grinding for long.

Shadowed Alloy:

  • Shadowflame Essence x1
  • Awakened Fire x1
  • Awakened Order x1
  • Draconium Ore x5
  • Khaz’gorite Ore x2

Shadowflame Wreathe:

  • Shadowflame Essence x1
  • Vibrant Shard x4
  • Resonant Crystal x4
  • Awakened Fire x4

Shadowflame-Tempered Armor Patch:

  • Shadowflame Essence x1
  • Rockfang Leather x2
  • Pristine Vorquin Horn x2
  • Awakened Fire x2
  • Resilient Leather x150
  • Earthshine Scales x2

Tinker: Shadowflame Rockets:

  • Shadowflame Essence x1
  • Dracothyst x1
  • Shock-Spring Coil x2
  • Greased-Up Gears x4
  • Arclight Capacitor x1
  • Reinforced Machine Chassis x1

With Shadowflame Essence in your hands (or at least in your Alloy and Wreathes), it’s time to return to the field of battle.
