WoW Forever Warlock Weapon Quest: The Orb of Soran'ruk and the Staff of Soran'ruk at Level 25

The Orb of Soran'ruk is the class quest that gives a warlock a staff or an off-hand in WoW Forever. Doan Karhan, a human warlock, hands it out at a small camp east of Camp Taurajo in the southern Barrens. Warlocks of both factions can take it from level 20.

He asks for 3 Soran'ruk Fragments and 1 Large Soran'ruk Fragment. The small pieces drop in Blackfathom Deeps and the large piece in Shadowfang Keep, so the quest needs both dungeons. With all 4 in your bags, he rebuilds the orb in the form you choose: the Orb of Soran'ruk or the Staff of Soran'ruk.

The quest text tells the story: the orb broke in 2. The smaller piece was broken up again for the acolytes of the Twilight's Hammer in Blackfathom Deeps, and a wizard in Shadowfang Keep kept the larger piece.

Fragment	You need	Dropped by	Dungeon
Soran'ruk Fragment	3	Twilight Acolyte	Blackfathom Deeps
Large Soran'ruk Fragment	1	Shadowfang Darksoul	Shadowfang Keep

Both fragments are quest items, so take the quest from Doan Karhan before either run. The large fragment is unique: 1 is all you can carry, and 1 is all the quest asks for.

Both rewards are item level 25, bind when picked up, and only a warlock can use them. Each adds damage to both Fire and Shadow spells.

Reward	Slot	Fire and Shadow damage	Also
Staff of Soran'ruk	2-hand staff, speed 2.90	up to +34	+14 Stamina
Orb of Soran'ruk	Held in off-hand	up to +9	Use: restores 48 health every 3 sec for 30 sec, 10 min cooldown

The Staff is the bigger upgrade for most warlocks: up to 34 extra damage to both schools against 9, plus 14 Stamina. The Orb suits a warlock who already wields a strong 1-hand weapon, and its heal over 30 seconds tops you up between pulls.

What WoW Forever changed

In Classic Era both rewards are green items. There the Staff adds up to 9 Fire and Shadow damage and no Stamina, and the Orb adds up to 4 and heals 25 health every 3 seconds. WoW Forever raised both: the Staff now adds up to 34 and 14 Stamina, and the Orb adds up to 9 and heals 48 health a tick.
