The new Corrupted Knot has purple wrappings, and lighter colored bands around the head.
Avid collectors may recognize Tunk’s Lil’ Whomper as one of the more elusive one-handed models in the game, one of several items that can drop from the Ogryn boss Tunk during the Darkmaul Citadel mini-dungeon. Though with no way to return to the island or instance after finishing the initial leveling process, players looking to farm this appearance must reroll a new character and complete the entirety of the introductory experience in order to encounter Trunk again – making for a very tedious and time consuming farm.
The exclusive coloration of the Tunk’s Lil’ Whomper will help ensure it remains sought after.
Patch 10.2 addresses this with a new drop from Oakheart in Darkheart Thicket, a returning Legion dungeon added to the Season 3 Mythic+ rotation! The Corrupted Knot is a purple wrapped recolor of the original though, so for better or for worse, there’s still reason for the most dedicated collectors to continue going back to Exile’s Reach.
