Hidden Warrior Artifact Appearance Is Up on NA Hidden Warrior Artifact Appearance Is Up on NA You'd think the Arms Warrior hidden artifact appearance wouldn't really be all that relevant anymore, but since we can now transmog it in any spec, Strom'kar, the Warbreaker is getting very Axe-y is definitely worth mentioning. Warriors in the US who don't yet have it should be pretty happy today as the hidden  Arcanite Bladebreaker appearance is available, so hurry! Head to your Legion Order Hall and grab the Secrets of the Axes quest from Master Smith Helgar (he's over by the Forge of Odyn) and he will give you a quest where you must duel Saurfang to earn the hidden appearance. Shadowlands brought the ability to transmog weapons in other specs to the artifacts, so this is even more worth doing, and thanks to redditor CrebTheBerc for noticing! The quest is usually up for around a day. World of Warcraft WoW Today at 05:32 by Starym

Henry Cavill Teases Secret Project - Most Likely Just Witcher-Related But Perhaps... Henry Cavill Teases "Secret Project" - Most Likely Just Witcher-Related But Perhaps... Update: it seems the tease IS gaming related, just not WoW! Apparently the text on the script is de-blurrable and is related to Mass Effect. You can read more about it over on PC Gamer.
