Intro
The Legendary Cloak questline in World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria Classic is one of the most iconic progression chains of the expansion. It rewards you with a powerful cloak that not only boosts your stats but also grants unique effects tied to Pandaria’s celestial August Celestials. This step-by-step guide will cover how to unlock the cloak, what rewards you get in each phase, and how to progress through Wrathion’s multi-chapter storyline.
If you don’t want to grind through weeks of raids, Valor farming, and reputation, you can always skip the hassle with Onlyfarms.gg’s Legendary Cloak Service. But if you’d rather tackle it yourself, let’s dive into the full walkthrough.
Legendary Cloak Overview in MoP Classic
The questline is split into five chapters, each tied to different phases of MoP Classic content. Wrathion, the Black Prince, is your main quest giver and guide throughout the storyline, starting in the Tavern in the Mists.
Here’s how each chapter works:
| Chapter | Phase | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| I: Trial of the Black Prince | Phase 1 | Sha-Touched Gem (+500 Agility/Strength/Intellect) |
| II: Wrathion’s War | Phase 2 | Eye of the Black Prince (adds prismatic socket to Sha-Touched/Thunder King weapons) |
| III: Two Princes | Phase 3 | Legendary Meta Gem (usable in ilvl 502+ helms) |
| IV: Celestial Blessings | Phase 4 | Choice of six item level 600 epic cloaks |
| V: Judgment of the Black Prince | Phase 5 | Final Legendary Cloak with unique effect |
After completing the questline, you also unlock access to Ordos, the Timeless Isle world boss. The unlock is account-wide—once you do it on one character, all your alts can enter Ordos’ sanctuary.
💡 Extra cloaks can be purchased from the Blacktalon Quartermaster:
- Epic cloaks cost 10,000 gold each.
- A Timeless Essence of the Black Dragonflight (to obtain another Legendary version) costs 125 coins (with discounts for reputation).
Epic Cloaks and Their Effects
Here’s a breakdown of the six item level 600 cloaks available before upgrading to the Legendary version:
| Cloak | Effect Name | Effect Description |
|---|---|---|
| Qian-Le, Courage of Niuzao Qian-Ying, Fortitude of Niuzao |
Endurance of Niuzao | Absorbs one lethal attack (2-min cooldown). Tank-only. |
| Xing-Ho, Breath of Yu’lon | Essence of Yu’lon | Damaging spells may launch jade dragonflame at your target, dealing spellpower-scaled damage to up to 5 enemies. |
| Jina-Kang, Kindness of Chi-Ji | Spirit of Chi-Ji | Healing spells may increase healing done by 5% and redistribute overhealing to up to 5 allies for 10 sec. |
| Fen-Yu, Fury of Xuen Gong-Lu, Strength of Xuen |
Flurry of Xuen | Damaging attacks have a chance to unleash a Flurry of Xuen, hitting up to 5 enemies every 0.3 sec for 3 sec. |
These cloaks provide spec-defining power spikes, and once upgraded, the Legendary Cloak becomes one of the most important pieces of gear in the expansion.
