Might of Stormwind and Warchief's Blessing Buffs In WoW Forever: What They Do & How To Get Them

Written by Geekmandem - 11th November 2026

You might be thinking to yourself, how did I get this amazing new buff on my bars in WoW Forever? Well, that's Might of Stormwind or Warchief's Blessing and you have been blessed by an amazing buff that's super helpful for leveling.

Essentially these are faction-wide world buffs that go out whenever a player hands in the head of Warchief Rend Blackhand, and in Forever the Alliance also get their own version of the buff.

What Does Might of Stormwind & Warchief's Blessing Do In WoW Forever?

Might of Stormwind is the Alliance twin of the Horde's Warchief's Blessing biff, and both give you +300 Health, +15% Haste and 10 mana every five seconds for a full hour.

The Forever version of Warchief's Blessing now applies that haste to spells as well as attacks, so casters finally get a slice of it too. Forever also changes how the buff behaves, because it now persists through death, which is a massive change!

No Effect In Raids: It's worth noting that these world buffs like Might of Stormwind and Warchief's Blessing no longer work in a raid. So this isn't something you'll need to hunt down before those are released.

How To Get The Might of Stormwind or Warchief's Blessing Buff in WoW Forever

Both factions acquire the buff in a similar manner, but through different quests.

Might of Stormwind

For the faction buff to go out, you have to kill Rend Blackhand in Upper Blackrock Spire, grab the Head of Rend Blackhand and hand it to Master Mathias Shaw in Stormwind for the quest End of the Dark Horde. This is a Level 60 quests and as soon as you hand it in, your faction will get the buff.

Warchief's Blessing

Horde players get theirs from the For The Horde! quest, the last step of a chain that starts with Warlord's Command. Take Rend's head back to Thrall in Orgrimmar, and everyone in the Horde gets Warchief's Blessing.

Global?: It appears you no longer have to be in Orgrimmar or Stormwind City to receive the buff, and will receive it regardless of where you are!
