WoW Forever New Materials: Death Lotus, Heavy Thorium, Legionite and More
Beta caveat: built from beta records ahead of launch on 4 Nov UTC / 5 Nov AEDT. [Beta data: may change at launch] marks Mount Hyjal details; [Unconfirmed] = to recheck at launch. We will update spawns once launch data exists.
Forever adds new herbs, ores, bars and a new leather for endgame crafting. This page lists each one, what it makes and what is known about where it comes from.

The three new herbs
All three are item level 60. Nobody has confirmed where they grow. [Unconfirmed]
| Recipe | Skill | Marefoil | Demonsage | Death Lotus |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flask of Natural Precision | Alchemy 320 | 12 | – | 1 |
| Flask of Natural Swiftness | Alchemy 320 | 18 | – | 1 |
| Flask of Natural Accuracy | Alchemy 320 | – | 12 | 1 |
| Flask of Natural Aggression | Alchemy 320 | – | 18 | 1 |
| Stealthman 52 | Engineering 320 | 4 | – | – |
| Legionite Glaive | Blacksmithing 300 | – | – | 1 |
| Enchant Gloves - Natural Power | Enchanting 320 | – | – | 4 |
| Enchant Gloves - Lotus Claw | Enchanting 295 | – | – | 1 |
| Gnomish Weather Machine | Engineering 320 | – | – | 2 |
| Ultrasafe Rechargeable Battery | Engineering 320 | – | – | 1 |
Each flask also takes one Imbued Vial plus a Classic herb: 9 Dreamfoil, 6 Icecap, 9 Golden Sansam or 6 Mountain Silversage. Questing.wiki marks the Gnomish Weather Machine product as not yet in the game.
The one lead on Death Lotus is Enchant Gloves - Lotus Claw. Classic WoW Forever says it gives a small chance of Death Lotus whenever you gather any herb in Hyjal. The formula needs Barkskin Burrow Honored, a furbolg faction tied to Hyjal. [Beta data: may change at launch] Questing.wiki lists the formula at Enchanting 285, other sources at 295. [Unconfirmed]
Full flask recipes are on Alchemy recipe sources; herb routes are on herb farming.
New ores and bars
| Step | Recipe | Skill (yellow, green, grey) | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smelt Azerothium | 2 Pitchblende + 1 Coal = 1 Azerothium Bar | Mining 275 | Any forge |
| Smelt Heavy Thorium | 1 Heavy Thorium Ore = 1 Heavy Thorium Bar | Mining 300, 307, 315 | Only at a Molten Foundry |
| Transmute: Legionite | 1 Heavy Thorium Bar + 1 Fel Crystal = 1 Legionite Bar | Alchemy 275, 282, 290 | The only recorded source of Legionite |
The Molten Foundry is a Mining camp object at 300. It costs 5 Thorium Bar, 2 Dense Stone and 1 Truesilver Bar. Details are on the Mining guide and camping guide.
Wowhead's Forever Mining overview places Heavy Thorium Veins in Mount Hyjal, with Torbernite and Fel Crystal as extra finds from them. [Beta data: may change at launch] One player reports the veins look like Rich Thorium with green fel smoke, near the Scourge area. [Unconfirmed]
So every Legionite Bar costs one Heavy Thorium Ore from Hyjal plus one Fel Crystal. The Legionite Glaive alone takes 15 Legionite Bar, 8 Heavy Thorium Bar, 10 Azerothium Bar, 4 Torbernite and 1 Death Lotus.
Pristine Leather and other Scarce materials
Pristine Leather is the busiest new material, used from Blacksmithing 45 and Leatherworking 60 up to 300. Our Skinning guide lists it from about 22 creatures of level 11–21, in zones such as Westfall, the Barrens, Darkshore and Loch Modan.
| Gathering | Scarce materials |
|---|---|
 Mining | Pyrite, Bauxite, Pitchblende |
 Herbalism | Frilled Lichen, Rosecap, Stranglevine |
 Skinning | Pristine Leather, Pristine Hide, Pristine Scale |
The Bountiful Harvest Legacy perk adds 20% Scarce yield per rank. Sources for most Scarce drops are still not confirmed. [Unconfirmed]
What this means for gold
- Death Lotus sits in 9 recipes across four professions, and its only known lead needs a rare formula. Expect thin supply.
- Legionite chains three steps: a miner at 300 with a Molten Foundry, Hyjal ore, then an alchemist at 275. Each step is a chance to sell.
- Pristine Leather feeds 126 recipes from low levels, so early skinners have buyers from day one.
We have no launch prices yet. See crafting for gold and the auction house guide.
Next: ore farming, herb farming, leather farming, Blacksmithing plans, Engineering schematics, all professions.
FAQ
Where does Death Lotus spawn?
Not confirmed. The only recorded source is the Lotus Claw glove enchant, which gives a small chance of Death Lotus from herbs gathered in Hyjal. [Beta data: may change at launch]
How do I get Legionite Bars?
Alchemy's Transmute: Legionite at 275 turns 1 Heavy Thorium Bar and 1 Fel Crystal into 1 Legionite Bar. No other source is recorded.
Can I smelt Heavy Thorium at a city forge?
No. It needs a Molten Foundry, the camp object Mining builds at 300.
Where is Pitchblende found?
Not confirmed. Wowhead thinks it comes from Truesilver veins and higher. [Unconfirmed]
