The final raid of the expansion, Manaforge Omega is coming, and with it comes the ultimate source of powerful new gear and rewards. To help you navigate the loot system and prioritize your goals, we've created a comprehensive overview covering every aspect of the raid's rewards. Inside, you'll find a complete breakdown of item level progression, detailed loot tables for all eight bosses, how to acquire your Tier Set armor and information on the unique-effect items that will define your character's power this season. We also cover the new Great Vault requirements, the raid-exclusive Manaforge Vandals Renown track, and the magnificent mounts you can earn.
In the new Manaforge Omega raid, players will face eight bosses, with loot rewards increasing in item level as they progress deeper into the instance. A significant change from previous raids in this expansion is the removal of Very Rare items. While some gear will still possess unique special effects, it will no longer drop with the bonus item level typically associated with that higher rarity.
Tier Set armor can be acquired from five specific bosses throughout the raid. Furthermore, the final boss, Dimensius, drops a universal Tier Token called the Hungering Void Curio, which allows any class to redeem it for any Tier Set piece they need. To unlock weekly rewards from the Great Vault, players must defeat a minimum of two, four, or six bosses to open all three available raid slots.
Here is a breakdown of the item levels for gear dropped in the Manaforge Omega raid. As noted earlier, item levels increase as you defeat later bosses. The table below reflects this progression by organizing loot into four tiers. It also lists which type of Ethereal Crest you can expect to receive from bosses on each of the four difficulties.
| Difficulty | Tier 1: First Boss | Tier 2: Bosses 2-3 | Tier 3: Bosses 4-6 | Tier 4: Bosses 7-8 | Crest Dropped |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LFR | 668 | 671 | 675 | 678 | Weathered Ethereal Crest |
| Normal | 681 | 684 | 688 | 691 | Carved Ethereal Crest |
| Heroic | 694 | 697 | 701 | 704 | Runed Ethereal Crest |
| Mythic | 707 | 710 | 714 | 717 | Gilded Ethereal Crest |

So, while you won't find any of those super high item level "Very Rare" drops in Manaforge Omega, there's still some cool loot with special effects. You can enhance the effectiveness of your Reshii Wraps with two items from the raid. First, The Soul Hunters drop a pair of boots for each armor type that will cause your wraps to activate 50% more frequently, providing a significant boost. You can refer to the boss's loot table for the specific item for your class. Additionally, the final boss drops the Band of the Shattered Soul ring, which adds a defensive layer to your wraps by granting a shield that helps you survive heavy Cosmic damage hits whenever they trigger.
Probably the most unique item is the Maw of the Void, a two-handed Agility/Strength mace from Nexus-King Salhadaar. It's basically working like Loot-A-Rang. You just use the mace, and it loots everything in a 40-yard circle around you.
Casters should seek out a powerful weapon and trinket combination in this raid. The Diamantine Voidcore trinket provides a set bonus when equipped with one of the special "Voidglass" weapons. These weapons include a staff from Soulbinder Naazindhri, a dagger from Fractillus, and a sword from Nexus-King Salhadaar. On their own, these weapons have a chance to deal extra damage or shield an ally. However, the two-piece set bonus amplifies this effect's power by a massive 200%.
Beyond the powerful gear dropped by bosses, Manaforge Omega offers a variety of unique collectibles and reputation-based rewards. This section focuses on the magnificent mounts you can acquire and the new Manaforge Vandals Renown track, which provides its own set of exclusive items for those dedicated to clearing the raid.
Manaforge Omega continues the trend of raid-specific reputations with the introduction of the Manaforge Vandals. Much like the Gallagio Loyalty Rewards Club from Liberation of Undermine, this system allows players to earn Renown solely by participating in the raid. Increasing your standing with the Vandals will grant access to a variety of valuable rewards, including:
| Renown Level | Reward |
|---|---|
| Level 1 | Access to vendors and auctioneers at the Shadow Point hub. |
| Level 2 | By defeating Loom'ithar, players can acquire Loombeast Silk - with a chance for multiple to drop at once - which is used to fashion new Cloak Appearances at Shadow Point. |
| Level 3 | Gain 15% increased movement speed out of combat and the ability to weaken trash mobs in the Cultivation Chambers and The Unbound Vault. |
| Level 4 | Receive the Shadowguard Translocator (a temporary teleport to the start of the raid) and a 3% damage/healing buff for your Warband. |
| Level 5 | Unlock a raid skip that takes you directly to Nexus-King Salhadaar if you've defeated him at least once on your present difficulty. |
| Level 6 | Enchantments and Mana Oils become more effective inside Manaforge Omega. |
| Level 7 | Extend the enemy-weakening effect to the Technomancers' Terrace and increase your Warband's damage/healing buff to 6%. |
| Level 8 | Unlock new Enchanting and Inscription recipes, the Vandal's Gearglider mount, and the pet Zo'ya. |
| Level 9 | The Soul Hunters now drop three to six permanent Soulgorged Augment Runes. |
| Level 10 | Movement speed bonus increases to 30% (stacks with the first) and the Warband damage/healing buff rises to 9%. |
| Level 11 | Extend the enemy-weakening effect to The Shadow Docks. Elite enemies now have a chance to drop Warbound items weekly. |
| Level 12 | Nexus-King Salhadaar now drops Ethereal Essence Sliver - with a chance for multiple to drop at once - for purchasing cosmetic appearances. |
| Level 13 | The Warband damage/healing buff increases to 12%, and you can recruit the pet Looker. |
| Level 14 | Grants the title Star Savior and The Bone Freezer mount. |
| Level 15 | The Warband damage/healing buff maxes out at 15%, and you unlock the ability to teleport to Manaforge Omega from anywhere. |
As with every major raid, Manaforge Omega introduces several magnificent new mounts for players to collect. For achievement hunters, the Umbral K'arroc is the guaranteed reward for completing the raid's meta-achievement Glory of the Omega Raider. The Royal Voidwing, a majestic, purple-hued creature, is the reward for completing the quest A Twilight Oath's End. Based on how it currently works on the Public Test Realm (PTR), you'll first need to get the Mark of the Twilight Oath item from the final raid boss. This item starts a quest, which you can complete by taking it to Ve'nari in the Oasis on K'aresh. Turning in the quest to her will reward you with the mount. Keep in mind that this process could change before the update goes live.
For raiders who brave the ultimate challenge, the Unbound Star-Eater awaits. This stunning cosmic serpent has a rare chance to drop from the final boss, Dimensius, but only on Mythic difficulty, making it a highly sought-after trophy.
Additionally, two more mounts can be earned by building renown with the new Manaforge Vandals faction. Upon reaching renown level 8, you will receive the Vandal's Gearglider mount, and later at renown level 14, you will be rewarded with The Bone Freezer.
In The War Within Season 3, players have the opportunity to earn an additional Catalyst charge to help complete their Tier Sets more quickly. This is achieved by earning the The War Within Season 3: Voidborne Victor achievement, which requires completing one of three challenging objectives: defeating the final raid boss, Dimensius, on Heroic or Mythic difficulty; reaching a Mythic+ rating of 2000; or attaining a rating of 1600 in Rated PvP. Successfully completing any of these will reward the Crystallized Ethereal Voidsplinter, an item that can be redeemed at the Matrix Catalyst in Dornogol for one bonus charge.
Furthermore, players can unlock exclusive enhanced visual effects for their Season 3 Tier Set armor. This cosmetic upgrade is tied to the Void Wear Prohibited achievement, which demands a higher level of skill. To earn it, players must complete one of the following high-end goals: defeat Dimensius on Mythic difficulty, earn the The War Within Keystone Hero: Season Three achievement, or achieve an Elite rank in Rated PvP for the season. Finishing one of these tasks grants the K'areshi Voidstone, which permanently unlocks the bonus visuals for your armor set.
