EU+US Guide: Useful Toys

Hurtaz

Grandfathered
I'm pretty sure many people missing what benefits they can get from toys, at least at level 1. Therefore, I created this thread to help you find the toys you need to have!

Toys you need to have

Iron Boot Flask
Bought from Olut Alegut (H) or Rork Sharpchin (A) for 10 Relic of Ulduar. These are dropped in Halls of Lightning and Halls of Stone. It will take about 10-15 minutes for a level 100 to get this Toy and when used on a level 1, it sometimes deals around 400 damage to the attacker. Active for 10 minutes with a cooldown of 1h. This is probably the best toy available.

Shard of Archstone
Dropped from Havak (level 88 Rare) in Kun-Lai Summit. Won't take more than 30 minutes to get if you farm it on a level 100 and are realm jumping. This toy makes you into stone and won't let the enemies target you. Can only be used while out of combat and any movement will break the effect. I find this toy useful in duels.

Throbbing Blood Orb
Contained inside Looted Bleeding Hollow Treasure in Tanaan Jungle after you have completed a quest chain. This item will transform you into a hulking orc with the ability yo jump high. This is useful in tough terrain, when jumping over a cliff or water etc. as mentioned by Roboartist. The toy has a cast time of about 1.5s and another 2 seconds of effects before you can move again.

Items that turns into toys in Legion
In Legion, some of the Pandaria tools/utility items will turn into toys. If you don't want to farm them on you low level character now, do it on your level 100 and wait until Legion to use them on your twinks.

Hardened Shell
Dropped by Nessos the Oracle (level 88 Rare) in Kun'Lai Summit. This item throws a hard shell on the target that dismounts it. Useful in PVP when enemies using their mount to get close to you. This item does have a cast time of about 1.5 seconds which makes it a bit harder to find a situation when to use it.

Battle Horn
Dropped by Blackhoof (level 86 Rare) in Valley of the Four Winds. Useful in PVE when you need to get aggro. This is a AOE taunt that will taunt all targets around you in a 40 yards area.

Throbbing Blood Orb (from a Tanaan mob) is useful as well.
It can get you past vast distances of rough terrain, water, make tough jumps, and possibly even kite/catch up to a player.

Of course! Thanks for tip, will add it as well. Have had that item for long, but never thought of using it in that way. Have just seen it as a fun cosmetic thing.
 
Don't forget that the transformation ones are also useful for hiding your weapon enchants/whatever other reason you might have to hide what you look like.

Wow, thanks for this list @Hurtaz. I didn't know about Shard of Archstone. Does that make you immune to all mobs? Like if I was wandering through Mt Hyjal as a level 20, could I simply run through for 5 mins without being attacked? That is a must have toy for Vets / F2P's who want to explore all Azeroth. Damn I hope that's how it works.

I probably picked it up on my old 100 main but would have deleted it as it wasn't a toy back then. Darn it :mad: I cleared my bank space as there were too many of these things being picked up in Pandaria. Might need to see if I get 7 days free in the upcoming Pre-Patch or just after to pick this must have up!

Edit : Doh - just read up on it and obviously as a statue you don't move, dughhhh. I thought it may give some immunity from being attacked while still moving but I guess it could still save you, like a more effective Shadowmeld. At least it may give another opportunity to try and get out of trouble once you cancel de-buff. Still, looks worthwhile.
