'''Heirlooms''' (also referred to as just ''looms'') are an [[item]] type that was introduced with ''[[Wrath of the Lich King]]''.<ref name="discover">http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=9679633896&sid=2000#18</ref> The items have a <span class="qc-heirloom">light blue hue</span> in their text color (<span class="qc-artifact">golden</span> before [[patch 7.0.3]]), and their attributes scale with the character's level<ref name="detail">http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=9679633896&sid=2000&pageNo=4#75</ref>, with upgrades to increase the max level it can scale to. Nearly all heirloom items are named after popular items from the early days of [[World of Warcraft|classic WoW]] and share the look of these items.
   
  +
Once purchased, heirlooms are learned like mounts, pets, and toys, and show up in the [[Heirlooms tab]]. From there, players can upgrade their heirlooms to be effective for more levels, and to make copies of the heirlooms to use on a character. Heirlooms can be mailed to any character that shares the same account, including those of opposing faction or on different realms.
−
Once purchased, heirlooms bind to account, as opposed to an individual character.
  
   
  +
Since after [[patch 9.0.1]], heirloom provides better attributes and a set bonus during the leveling experience to reach current content. Prior to patch 9.0.1, the shoulders, chest pieces, cloaks, helms, legs, and the rings granted greater [[experience]] gains while wearing them. The experience bonuses stacked with each other and with the [[rested]] bonus, and affect experience gains from [[quest]]s, but did not stack with [[Essence of Wintergrasp]]. The maximum possible experience bonus from heirlooms alone was 55%<ref>[https://twitter.com/WarcraftDevs/status/960944085551890432 WarcraftDevs on Twitter]: "The XP bonus from Recruit a Friend is the only form of bonus experience that has a maximum of 50%. Heirlooms stack with other bonuses, like the Darkmoon Faire one, in the same way they did before the change."</ref> (with full heirloom set, Garrison Shipyard Ring, and [[Dread Pirate Ring]] from the [[Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza]]).
−
They can then be mailed to any character that shares the same account, server, and faction. Heirlooms are useful as they automatically take on the attributes of a blue quality item of the level of its wearer. At level 80, heirlooms are approximately equivalent to an [[item level]] 187 {{quality|rare}} item, and will ultimately be replaced by questing, instancing, and PvP at level 80.
  
   
  +
Heirloom items do not have a durability stat and do not need to be repaired. This saves money when leveling the character.
−
Heirloom items can also be returned for a refund within the normal two-hour grace period, but only on the original character that purchased them and only if these items were not mailed to a different character yet.
  
   
  +
Heirloom item restrictions are skill-based and not class-based. For example, any class could wear the cloth shoulders and chest for the 20% experience boost, but classes such as warriors and rogues would not benefit from the item's casting stats. Because characters don't typically get any shoulder or head gear until after level 20, putting any lower-armor-type XP enhancing heirloom you may have sitting around (like cloth, which all can wear) on even a mail or leather class will be helpful until you start getting equipment for what would otherwise just be just an empty slot
−
Mail and Plate Heirlooms bought will lower one level of armor type (to Leather and Mail respectively) for characters below Level 40. For instance, when purchasing an Heirloom for a Shaman, you want to be buying a Mail item, as it will scale down to Leather on your Shaman, until you reach Level 40, when it will become Mail again.
  
   
  +
==Collection system==
−
Heirloom shoulders bestow upon the wearer the blessing of the original wearer, and therefore allow greater experience gains while wearing them. The experience bonus from the shoulder pieces stacks with the rested bonus and includes quest experience <ref>http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?sid=1&topicId=17367750090&ST=US-73861-kaM41bWbsbmbG2WaJRPlyer7WjORv0Stu0b</ref>, but does not stack with [[Essence of Wintergrasp]].
  
  +
[[File:Heirlooms tab.jpg|thumb|The Heirlooms tab in patch 6.1]]
  +
[[Patch 6.1]] implemented the [[Heirlooms tab]] in the [[Collections]] interface, and thus players now only need to acquire heirlooms once to learn them. Once learned (like pets, mounts or toys), players can right-click on an heirloom to add it to that character's inventory. Duplicate heirlooms and heirlooms that have been learned but are not useful to the current character can (like toys) be deleted without any further issue if they have not been enchanted.
   
  +
The vast majority of heirlooms scale from levels 1 to 60, but can be upgraded with tokens three times: once to be effective from levels 1 to 90, secondly to 100, and finally to level 110. Upgraded heirlooms, when created from the heirlooms tab, will show up in characters' bags at the upgrade level seen in the UI.
−
Another advantage of heirlooms is their lack of a [[durability]] stat, and therefore lack of need to repair. This saves money when leveling your character.
  
   
  +
Enchants only apply to individual copies of heirlooms (unlike upgrades), so if an heirloom has been enchanted and it is no longer useful to the character wearing it, consider mailing the heirloom to another character rather than deleting it.
−
==Shoulders==
  
−
The heirloom shoulders were originally sold only in Wintergrasp or Dalaran; in [[Patch 3.2.0]], the shoulders sold in Dalaran are also purchasable from [[Evniki Kapsalis]] at the [[Argent Tournament Grounds]] in [[Icecrown]] for [[Champion's Seal]]s.
  
   
  +
Nontraditional heirlooms (like the [[Dread Pirate Ring]] or Garrosh weapons) are invisible in the heirlooms tab until acquired. Only the highest-difficulty Garrosh weapon will be visible in the UI if the player has the same item in multiple difficulty modes.

Now-upgradeable heirlooms acquired before patch 6.1 were automatically added to the heirlooms tab at upgrade level 1/2 (effective up to level 90) regardless of whether or not they were actually upgraded, with the heirloom items themselves staying in the character's bags, bank, or void storage.

===Other sources===
  +
Beyond the vendors, there are a few other sources of heirlooms:
  +
  +
*In the [[Brawler's Guild]], once players reach rank 8, they may purchase the {{Versions/Loom|Brawler's Razor Claws}} for {{cost|1,000}} from [[Quackenbush]] at [[Bizmo's Brawlpub]] in the [[Deeprun Tram]] beneath [[Stormwind]] or from [[Paul North]] at the [[Brawl'gar Arena]] in [[Orgrimmar]].

  +
*[[Defending Champion]] and [[Returning Champion]] are PvP trinkets obtained after completing the 12-trinket quests for the [[Gurubashi Arena]] and [[Darkmoon Deathmatch]] respectively.

  +
  +
==Upgrades==
  +
As previously mentioned, heirlooms as sold by the vendors are effective from levels 1 to 60. Upgrade tokens are available for purchase to upgrade heirlooms to be effective up to level 90, 100, 110, and 120 respectively.
  +
  +
During Timewalking Dungeon Events, the Timewalking Vendor sells upgrade tokens in exchange for Timewarped Badges.

Additionally, during holidays like [[Love is in the Air]], [[Hallow's End]], or the [[Lunar Festival]], vendors tend to sell upgrade tokens in exchange for the event currency.
−
==Chestpieces==
  
−
Heirloom chest pieces were released in [[Patch 3.2.0]]. Like the shoulders, they have a 10% experience boost from quests and kills, and this boost stacks with the 10% from the shoulders (thus making leveling for the lower-levels much easier)<ref>{{ref web |url=http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?sid=1&topicId=17631614834&pageNo=2&ST=US-1711575-IAOAptRJpFh55KAVyNbuTj4y3iSBRiaQcpH#36 |title=Re: 3.2 new heirlooms |accessdate=2009-08-03 |author=Zarhym |date=2009-06-16 |quote=One thing I can tell you is that chest piece heirlooms will be available in the next content patch. They will provide a 10% experience bonus that stacks with the shoulder bonus.}}</ref>.
  
   
  +
===Cost===
−
These can be purchased from [[Dame Evniki Kapsalis]] once the title {{title|[[Crusader (title)|Crusader]]}} has been earned, at the [[Argent Tournament Grounds]] in [[Icecrown]] costing 60 {{item|icon=|Champion's Seal|Champion's Seal}}, or from [[Enchanter Erodin]] (Horde) / [[Enchanter Isian]] (Alliance) in [[Dalaran]] costing 40 {{item|icon=|Emblem of Heroism|Emblem of Heroism}}.
  
  +
There are currently 22 armor pieces, 16 weapons, and 13 off-hand and miscellaneous available to everyone. Additionally, being [[Revered]] with a guild grants access to 20 more armor pieces. Finally, there are 2 armor pieces, 3 weapons, and 17 off-hand and miscellaneous which are acquired through special means. One-handed weapons have a cheaper base cost, but upgrade costs are the same as two-handed. To max out each piece would cost the following:

==Stat values==
  +
{{ood-section|Patch 9.0.1}}
  +
An heirloom's stats correspond to the [[item level]] of a [[Rare|blue quality item]] requiring its wearer's level until the heirloom stops leveling, as specified by the tooltip. However, heirlooms give bonuses to four different stats from a far lower level than blue items start doing so. At level 100, heirlooms are equivalent to an item level 605 {{quality|rare}} item, and will ultimately be replaced by questing, instancing, and PvP at the maximum level. The [[#Garrosh_weapons|heirloom weapons]] that were dropped by [[Garrosh Hellscream (tactics)|Garrosh Hellscream]] are instead equivalent to an item level 620 {{quality|rare}} weapon at level 100.
  +
  +
On reaching levels 58, 68, 81, 86, and 91, players may notice unusually large increases to an heirloom's effective item level, because these are the lowest required levels for blues introduced in, respectively, the ''[[Burning Crusade]]'', ''[[Wrath of the Lich King]]'', ''[[Cataclysm]]'', ''[[Mists of Pandaria]]'', and ''[[Warlords of Draenor]]'' expansions. However, since the [[stat squish]] in [[patch 6.0.2]], there are no longer large increases in heirloom power from these jumps in item level, except the jump that occurs at level 91 (reflecting the new ''Warlords of Draenor'' blue items).
  +
  +
* Leveling from 57 to 58 increases an heirloom's item level from 62 to 79.
  +
* Leveling from 67 to 68 increases an heirloom's item level from 105 to 139.
  +
* Leveling from 80 to 81 increases an heirloom's item level from 187 to 279.
  +
* Leveling from 85 to 86 increases an heirloom's item level from 333 to 384.
  +
* Leveling from 90 to 91 increases an heirloom's item level from 463 to 520. This increase approximately doubles all stats on the heirloom, including weapon DPS. This shift does not occur on the [[#Garrosh weapons|heirloom weapons]] that were dropped by [[Garrosh Hellscream (tactics)|Garrosh Hellscream]] in [[Siege of Orgrimmar (instance)|Siege of Orgrimmar]] prior to the launch of ''Warlords of Draenor'', which follow a different line of item level progression.
  +
  +
==Enchanting your heirlooms==
  +
{{main|Enchantments by Slot}}
  +
  +
Heirlooms can be enchanted only with enhancements that will not bind the item to the character. All enchantments can be applied to heirloom items. High level enhancements applied to items equipped by low level players have their power scaled down to be similar to enhancements intended for that level range. Note that profession-specific enchantments still require the profession.
  +
  +
==Non-traditional heirlooms==
  +
===Hodir Shoulder Enchants===
  +
Heirloom shoulder [[enchants]] can be used at any level, but are only usable by level 30 characters and makes the heirloom soulbound. This is to allow for the use of these enchants without having to grind through the [[reputation]]s of [[Sons of Hodir]] with another character.
  +
  +
Note that the Sons of Hodir heirloom items are only the ''highest level'' version of the item the faction vendor carries. For example, [[Lesser Inscription of the Axe]] is not an Heirloom and the name will not appear in the light blue color in the vendor's trade window.

===Garrosh weapons===
−
==Weapons, Accessories, Misc==
  
  +
From [[patch 5.4]] to the launch of ''[[Warlords of Draenor]]'', [[Garrosh Hellscream (tactics)|Garrosh Hellscream]], the final boss of [[Siege of Orgrimmar (instance)|Siege of Orgrimmar]], dropped heirlooms for level 90-100 players. These heirlooms can no longer be acquired, and are invisible in the collections UI unless one of the heirlooms has already been learned. If players have multiple versions of the same item in different difficulty levels, only the highest-difficulty heirloom will be visible in the UI.
−
The weapons sold in Dalaran will also be purchasable with Champion's Seals. Two new weapons were added that are only purchaseable with Champion's Seals.
  
   
  +
These weapons start at item levels of 556, 569, or 582, for the normal, heroic, and mythic versions respectively (flexible, normal, and heroic, before [[patch 6.0.2]]). All 3 versions scale linearly to item level 620 at level 100, however, so the item level difference between the 3 versions decreases as a character approaches level 100. For example, at level 95, the weapons have item levels of 588, 595, and 601, respectively, which is a difference of 6-7 item levels, compared to the 13 item level difference at level 90.

===Mythic dungeon trinkets===
−
==Enchanting your Heirlooms==
  
  +
5 new trinket heirlooms were added in [[patch 6.2.3]], available to the launch of ''[[Legion]]'', having a chance to be rewarded to the player through [[Personal loot]] upon the defeat of the [[Warlords of Draenor]] dungeon bosses on Mythic difficulty. These trinkets can only be used from levels 100-110.
−
Heirlooms can be enchanted only with enhancements that will not bind the item to the character. The items are treated as [[item level]] 1, and as such can not use most Burning Crusade or higher enhancements, including Death Knight runes. Also worth considering is the fact that some of the enhancements that can be used will not actually take effect unless the character using them is of the appropriate level.
  
   
  +
{|class="darktable zebra"
−
For the sake of space, only the most useful enchantments are included. (Note: You are able to place Zandalar Signets on Heirloom Items if you have the rep though they require lvl 55 to become active.)

Though technically heirlooms (they have the light blue color), commendations are [[BoP]] and should be consumed immediately after purchase.

Latest revision as of 10:23, 29 May 2023

Heirlooms (also referred to as just looms) are an item type that was introduced with Wrath of the Lich King.[1] The items have a light blue hue in their text color (golden before patch 7.0.3), and their attributes scale with the character's level[2], with upgrades to increase the max level it can scale to. Nearly all heirloom items are named after popular items from the early days of classic WoW and share the look of these items.

Once purchased, heirlooms are learned like mounts, pets, and toys, and show up in the Heirlooms tab. From there, players can upgrade their heirlooms to be effective for more levels, and to make copies of the heirlooms to use on a character. Heirlooms can be mailed to any character that shares the same account, including those of opposing faction or on different realms.

Since after patch 9.0.1, heirloom provides better attributes and a set bonus during the leveling experience to reach current content. Prior to patch 9.0.1, the shoulders, chest pieces, cloaks, helms, legs, and the rings granted greater experience gains while wearing them. The experience bonuses stacked with each other and with the rested bonus, and affect experience gains from quests, but did not stack with Inv essenceofwintergrasp [Essence of Wintergrasp]. The maximum possible experience bonus from heirlooms alone was 55%[3] (with full heirloom set, Garrison Shipyard Ring, and Inv jewelry ring 39 [Dread Pirate Ring] from the Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza).

Heirloom items do not have a durability stat and do not need to be repaired. This saves money when leveling the character.

Heirloom item restrictions are skill-based and not class-based. For example, any class could wear the cloth shoulders and chest for the 20% experience boost, but classes such as warriors and rogues would not benefit from the item's casting stats. Because characters don't typically get any shoulder or head gear until after level 20, putting any lower-armor-type XP enhancing heirloom you may have sitting around (like cloth, which all can wear) on even a mail or leather class will be helpful until you start getting equipment for what would otherwise just be just an empty slot

Collection system

Heirlooms tab

The Heirlooms tab in patch 6.1

Patch 6.1 implemented the Heirlooms tab in the Collections interface, and thus players now only need to acquire heirlooms once to learn them. Once learned (like pets, mounts or toys), players can right-click on an heirloom to add it to that character's inventory. Duplicate heirlooms and heirlooms that have been learned but are not useful to the current character can (like toys) be deleted without any further issue if they have not been enchanted.

The vast majority of heirlooms scale from levels 1 to 60, but can be upgraded with tokens three times: once to be effective from levels 1 to 90, secondly to 100, and finally to level 110. Upgraded heirlooms, when created from the heirlooms tab, will show up in characters' bags at the upgrade level seen in the UI.

Enchants only apply to individual copies of heirlooms (unlike upgrades), so if an heirloom has been enchanted and it is no longer useful to the character wearing it, consider mailing the heirloom to another character rather than deleting it.

Nontraditional heirlooms (like the Inv jewelry ring 39 [Dread Pirate Ring] or Garrosh weapons) are invisible in the heirlooms tab until acquired. Only the highest-difficulty Garrosh weapon will be visible in the UI if the player has the same item in multiple difficulty modes.

Pre-6.1 heirlooms

Now-upgradeable heirlooms acquired before patch 6.1 were automatically added to the heirlooms tab at upgrade level 1/2 (effective up to level 90) regardless of whether or not they were actually upgraded, with the heirloom items themselves staying in the character's bags, bank, or void storage.

Heirlooms with attributes that are no longer used (such as dodge or PvP resilience) were updated to provide another secondary stat (crit or haste).

Guild vendors

Guild vendors sell heirloom helms, cloaks, and legs with guild reputation requirements. Helms and cloaks merely require honored guild reputation, while legs require being in a guild that has unlocked the Achievement general workingasateam [Working Better as a Team] achievement:

Other sources

Beyond the vendors, there are a few other sources of heirlooms:

Upgrades

As previously mentioned, heirlooms as sold by the vendors are effective from levels 1 to 60. Upgrade tokens are available for purchase to upgrade heirlooms to be effective up to level 90, 100, 110, and 120 respectively.

During Timewalking Dungeon Events, the Timewalking Vendor sells upgrade tokens in exchange for Timewarped Badges.

Additionally, during holidays like Love is in the Air, Hallow's End, or the Lunar Festival, vendors tend to sell upgrade tokens in exchange for the event currency.

Cost

There are currently 22 armor pieces, 16 weapons, and 13 off-hand and miscellaneous available to everyone. Additionally, being Revered with a guild grants access to 20 more armor pieces. Finally, there are 2 armor pieces, 3 weapons, and 17 off-hand and miscellaneous which are acquired through special means. One-handed weapons have a cheaper base cost, but upgrade costs are the same as two-handed. To max out each piece would cost the following:

Achievements

Chauffeured Chopper

Chauffeured Chopper

There are four achievements for learning heirlooms, with the last requiring 35 unique heirlooms learned. Upon unlocking the fourth achievement, players will receive a letter in the mail with a Inv misc gift 03 [Clinking Present] attached. Inside the present is the Inv misc key 06 [Chauffeured Chopper], a mount that can be used by players of all levels.

Stat values

Icon-time This section contains information that is out-of-date. Reason: Patch 9.0.1

An heirloom's stats correspond to the item level of a blue quality item requiring its wearer's level until the heirloom stops leveling, as specified by the tooltip. However, heirlooms give bonuses to four different stats from a far lower level than blue items start doing so. At level 100, heirlooms are equivalent to an item level 605 rare item, and will ultimately be replaced by questing, instancing, and PvP at the maximum level. The heirloom weapons that were dropped by Garrosh Hellscream are instead equivalent to an item level 620 rare weapon at level 100.

On reaching levels 58, 68, 81, 86, and 91, players may notice unusually large increases to an heirloom's effective item level, because these are the lowest required levels for blues introduced in, respectively, the Burning Crusade, Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm, Mists of Pandaria, and Warlords of Draenor expansions. However, since the stat squish in patch 6.0.2, there are no longer large increases in heirloom power from these jumps in item level, except the jump that occurs at level 91 (reflecting the new Warlords of Draenor blue items).

  • Leveling from 57 to 58 increases an heirloom's item level from 62 to 79.
  • Leveling from 67 to 68 increases an heirloom's item level from 105 to 139.
  • Leveling from 80 to 81 increases an heirloom's item level from 187 to 279.
  • Leveling from 85 to 86 increases an heirloom's item level from 333 to 384.
  • Leveling from 90 to 91 increases an heirloom's item level from 463 to 520. This increase approximately doubles all stats on the heirloom, including weapon DPS. This shift does not occur on the heirloom weapons that were dropped by Garrosh Hellscream in Siege of Orgrimmar prior to the launch of Warlords of Draenor, which follow a different line of item level progression.

Enchanting your heirlooms

Main article: Enchantments by Slot

Heirlooms can be enchanted only with enhancements that will not bind the item to the character. All enchantments can be applied to heirloom items. High level enhancements applied to items equipped by low level players have their power scaled down to be similar to enhancements intended for that level range. Note that profession-specific enchantments still require the profession.

Non-traditional heirlooms

Hodir Shoulder Enchants

Heirloom shoulder enchants can be used at any level, but are only usable by level 30 characters and makes the heirloom soulbound. This is to allow for the use of these enchants without having to grind through the reputations of Sons of Hodir with another character.

Note that the Sons of Hodir heirloom items are only the highest level version of the item the faction vendor carries. For example, Inv axe 82 [Lesser Inscription of the Axe] is not an Heirloom and the name will not appear in the light blue color in the vendor's trade window.

Name Cost
Inv axe 85 [Greater Inscription of the Axe] 100g
Spell arcane teleportorgrimmar [Greater Inscription of the Crag] 100g
Spell holy divinepurpose [Greater Inscription of the Pinnacle] 100g
Spell nature lightningoverload [Greater Inscription of the Storm] 100g

Garrosh weapons

From patch 5.4 to the launch of Warlords of Draenor, Garrosh Hellscream, the final boss of Siege of Orgrimmar, dropped heirlooms for level 90-100 players. These heirlooms can no longer be acquired, and are invisible in the collections UI unless one of the heirlooms has already been learned. If players have multiple versions of the same item in different difficulty levels, only the highest-difficulty heirloom will be visible in the UI.

These weapons start at item levels of 556, 569, or 582, for the normal, heroic, and mythic versions respectively (flexible, normal, and heroic, before patch 6.0.2). All 3 versions scale linearly to item level 620 at level 100, however, so the item level difference between the 3 versions decreases as a character approaches level 100. For example, at level 95, the weapons have item levels of 588, 595, and 601, respectively, which is a difference of 6-7 item levels, compared to the 13 item level difference at level 90.

Mythic dungeon trinkets

5 new trinket heirlooms were added in patch 6.2.3, available to the launch of Legion, having a chance to be rewarded to the player through Personal loot upon the defeat of the Warlords of Draenor dungeon bosses on Mythic difficulty. These trinkets can only be used from levels 100-110.

Reputation commendations

Select Mists of Pandaria factions have Grand Commendations available for purchase that double the reputation gains with factions once their commendation has been purchased and used. In order to purchase a commendation, one character on the player's account must reach revered standing with that faction.

Though technically heirlooms (they have the light blue color), commendations are BoP and should be consumed immediately after purchase.
