Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (AQ40) Loot Guide
The Temple of Ahn'Qiraj has a lot of extremely interesting loot and most Phase 5 best in slot lists will be filled to the brim with it.
In this guide, we will list all the loot available, alongside its location in the raid, and explain the Tier 2.5 and Qiraji Armament / Regalia token system.
Season of Discovery AQ40 Loot
As with previous phases during SoD, bosses will drop new and improved loot for players to collect. Below you'll find all of the improved loot available in this raid, and all raids currently available, as well as the newly improved tier 2.5 sets!
Token Loot in Temple of Ahn'Qiraj
Similarly to the "Paragons of Power" gear from Zul'Gurub, some bosses will drop tokens that can be exchanged by multiple classes for a piece of class-appropriate gear.
Located to the left side of the Temple, in the area opened after killing The Prophet Skeram, Vethsera, Kandrostrasz, and Andorgos await players who can provide them with the chest, boots, pants, helm, and shoulder tokens dropped by AQ40 bosses.
