The Boon of Blackfathom will drastically increase your stats and make leveling and clearing dungeons a breeze, and you need to get it whenever possible. Here’s how you can get the Boon of Blackfathom buff in WoW Classic Season of Discovery.

What are Buffs in WoW Classic Season of Discovery?

World buffs in WoW Classic are available by completing specific activities or getting them when a player turns in a specific quest in a capital city.

Here are the World Buffs you can get in WoW Classic:

  • Warchief’s Blessing
  • Rallying Cry of the Dragonslayer
  • Spirit of Zandalar
  • Songflower Serenade
  • Dire Maul Tribute buffs (Mol’dar’s Moxie, Fengus’ Ferocity, Slip’kik’s Savvy)
  • Sayge’s Dark Fortune buffs (from Darkmoon Faire)

Unfortunately, most of these buffs are available at level 60 and still aren’t a part of Season of Discovery. Instead, Blizzard Entertainment created the new Boon of Blackfathom buff.

What is the Boon of Blackfathom (BFD buff) in WoW Classic Season of Discovery?

Boon of Blackfathom buff increases the critical chance of your spells, melee, and ranged attacks by two percent and, it gives you 20 attack power and an additional 20 percent movement speed. 

It lasts for two full hours, and you lose it if you die. Luckily for you, you can store it using Chronoboon Displacer for later.

You can get the Boon of Blackfathom (BFD) buff if you’re located in either Thunder Bluff or Darnassus when a player turns in the Perfect Blackfathom Pearl quest. This quest starts from the item with the same name and it drops from the final boss in the Blackfathom Deeps raid, Aku’mai. You will also get the buff if you turn in the quest item yourself. 

You can get this quest item once per character and it has a 100 percent drop rate chance from Aku’mai.
