Given how long the Warcraft franchise has been going on for, safe to say that the lore of the game has been built up quite a bit, and while there are new things added to the game constantly, there are some things that remain a staple. For example in the game there are several weapons wielded by various characters that have become synonymous with the game.
There is Frostmourne which is wielded by the Lich King, then we have the Twin Blades of Azzinoth used by Illidan, then we have Ashbringer which was wielded by Tirion. Also how could we forget Doomhammer which used to be wielded by Orgrim Doomhammer, which was later passed on down to one of the most famous shamans in Warcraft lore, Thrall.
If you’re wondering how the Doomhammer might look like in real life, you’re in luck because Tony Swatton of Man at Arms has decided to forge one in real life. The end result is a pretty damn epic-looking weapon. The way Swatton and his team have crafted it also makes it look almost magical, like there’s a ton of elemental energy swirling inside of the hammer itself, which you can check out for yourself in the video above.
For World of Warcraft players, the Doomhammer will be an artifact weapon that players can actually wield if they were to play the shaman class in the upcoming Legion expansion. In the meantime if you have several minutes to spare, check out the forging process in the video above.
