As we begin 2024, we wanted to highlight some of the most popular items, quests, NPCs and spells on Wowhead's Dragonflight database for 2023!
2023 spanned 3 seasons and a lot of these entries show what players looked up or searched the most on the Retail site! Most of these entries are Dragonflight related, however there's a couple from previous expansions that are still very popular.
Professions seemed to take up the most of the awards this year, with Elemental Lariat showing up on two lists!
Items
- Elemental Lariat — The premier item of Season 1 as every class had one on their best-in-slot list during that time, and the pattern was super rare and initially cost around 10 million gold.
- Dragon Shard of Knowledge — A very coveted profession item that grants Artisan's Mettle and extra Profession Knowledge. With Profession Talent trees and crafted gear being very powerful, these were a coveted drop and could drop from a lot of activities!
- Onyx Annulet — A very powerful Ring that was released in Patch 10.0.7 that was intended to be an upgrade for all players. It was intended to be replaced in early Season 2, however this ended up not being the case for a lot of players and Blizzard decided not to nerf it until 10.1.5 so it remained on a lot of Best-in-Slot lists.
- Prophetic Twilight Stone — Combined with the Onyx Annulet, it was one of the gemstones that had a positive feedback loop and caused it to be so powerful.
- Frosty Soul — A crafting material that is frustrating to get. It's needed for many special crafts including the Evoker Legendary! This was originally harder to get as well before they made it much easier to acquire in a patch.
- Spark of Ingenuity — The most important and time-gated Crafting Resource in Season 1.
