Secret Hunters Uncover Eluvi'ana Quest Chain
Players in World of Warcraft: Forever have traced a multi-step quest chain on Zephras Isle that rewards the sword Eluvi'ana.
Updated on Nov. 11, 2026 in eSports
Secret hunters in World of Warcraft: Forever discovered a quest chain that ends with the sword Eluvi'ana, a weapon that is not particularly strong on its own. The chain takes place entirely on Zephras Isle and requires the Skyborne elves to access.
Why it matters
The hunt shows how players are uncovering hidden content in the game's new expansion ahead of wider discussion. Players have reached Honoured reputation with Shen'dralar as the next step in the hunt, pointing to further content still ahead.
Players spent roughly one week uncovering the chain, which begins with an ancient heirloom ring from the starting zone and requires a corrupted water globe from Darkshore or Blackfathom Deeps. Eluvi'ana is obtained at the end of part one, and the Ancient Hilt is rewarded at the Ruins of Ban'aethal on Zephras Isle.
The players
World of Warcraft: Forever
The newest expansion in Blizzard Entertainment's long-running massively multiplayer online role-playing game, in which the quest chain was found.
Shen'dralar
A zone in the game where an NPC directs players to visit after collecting quest items, and where players are working toward Honoured reputation.
The details
The quest chain begins with an ancient heirloom ring from the starting zone, and players must gather the Night Watchman's Torch in Duskwood, then return it to the Ruins of Ban'aethal to receive the Ancient Hilt. Players then track down an Ancient Blade, which spawns in one of several locations on Zephras Isle, to complete part one and obtain Eluvi'ana.
Timeline
Over the past week, secret hunters discovered the quest chain.
The quest chain was uncovered following the launch of World of Warcraft: Forever.
Season Trajectory
Hidden quest chains like this one have a history in World of Warcraft of growing into major long-term content, and the Eluvi'ana hunt is speculated to follow the path of the Waist of Time quest chain. Its eventual impact will depend on whether the sword is upgraded in later updates.
Players hunting the Eluvi'ana chain must gather items across several zones, including Duskwood, Darkshore or Blackfathom Deeps, and Zephras Isle, so the hunt requires planning and time. Anyone interested in the quest should expect to spend significant effort on the multi-step process.
The takeaway
The Eluvi'ana quest chain shows how hidden content in new expansions can be uncovered through patient exploration and community sharing. Players interested in the hunt should track how the sword may be upgraded in future updates.
