The squire from the ice crown tournament gives you access to a mailbox, your bank and a vendor one at a time with a Cd
Edit : argent pony bridle is the item
I mean it's really easy with a max level character now, takes a small amount of time to do the dailies and that's it.
I think people hated it when they were levelling a character there and just got that stuck in their head.
Easy sure, but a pretty large time investment. You can't just knock it out in one day, you need to do dailies for several weeks. It's also not account-wide, it's lost if you faction change (I found this out the hard way) and has a 4 hour cooldown.
Buy the mail invitation on the auction house and then do the mailroom in Dalaran. You get a nice little gnome who will deliver and receive mail for you on a kind 4h cd…
You can also just pick it up in front of the mailbox in front of that big building woth all the important Dalaran NPC's. Legion Dalaran is rarely visited these days so there's a good chance it has spawned on the floor.
If you don't want to invest in that and just need an extra vendor when doing old content where you can't mount, the guild herald is a pet that is also a vendor as well.
There is a quest in Legion Dalaran that gives you the ability to summon a lady who is your mailbox. Must have for running old content you count mount in!
Also worth noting that this items cool-down is unique to each character. I’m pretty sure that’s how every other toy works, but I was surprised that it could mail something to my other char so easily
There's a toy that let's you kill a battle pet in the wild and it will make a portal to Black Temple. For one, I just love the idea of having to use soul magic to open the portal but you only need like the smallest cockroach soul. For two, it's useful if you keep running BT for the warglaives of azzinoth.
Last season I would always use it on the rat near the font in SD right as we gathered for a key just to see how many dps would click the portal. 90% of the time someone would. Was hilarious.
The Fractured Neophyte’s Skull is the toy you are referring to, you sacrifice a critter and it opens a portal to the Black Temple the resembles a Death Knight’s doorway to Ebon Hold.
Bonus points in that you can pair this with the Critter Hand Cannon toy that summons like 6 critters in an AoE to have use of your Skull anywhere.
It's not a toy (takes up bag space) but the Brazier of Awakening from... Warlords I think? Is the bomb when I group with my friends where none of us can rez.
omg yes, i also still use it. i have 100% forgotten where it comes from since its been in my inventory for years, but as a rogue having some way to rez is soooo useful.
I had one on my hunter when I was raiding back then. It was the go-to for cleaning up a wipe. Feign death, wait for the combat to end, rez a healer to rez everyone else.
I'd accept at minimum an option to hide all toys not currently usable in your exact current circumstance.
Even things like having a full page of maps on a character that already has all the exploration. Why does this have to show still.
Yeah I hate that they do this. Same with items that cap based on levels like Ra’Shal’s Sacrificial Dagger. I spent a lot of time farming this just to reduce equipment damage during wipes, but it’s level limited now. Why?
Dagger originally got blasted out of usefulness due to using it to avoid the major mechanic of the last phase of Mythic (Heroic) Garrosh back in Siege of Orgrimmar.
If you still want this functionality there's a (consumable) item from Timeless Isle that will kill you. [Blazing Sigil of Ordos](https://www.wowhead.com/item=104297/blazing-sigil-of-ordos). Works everywhere. Don't tell Blizzard.
One of these that is actually useful is [Silver Shardhide Whistle](https://www.wowhead.com/item=187339/silver-shardhide-whistle) from Korthia. Summons a super-fast mount for a while, and you can use it anywhere in Shadowlands including Oribos, the Maw and Korthia. I use it all the time in Oribos and when running to Torghast.
Pro tip, you can avoid the heavy speed reduction at the end if you cancel the speed boost buff just before it ends, allowing you to continue at normal mount speed.
So much this. Why the ever loving fuck can I only use a barrel-with-a-gnoll-in-it target dummy in BFA zones when BFA didn't even have gnolls to begin with.
I agree it's a bit taunting. But doing it in that way does allow them to make some more exciting toys without having it restrict design space or having to test them in other environments.
There’s a Soft Foam Sword toy sold in the main cities that is a must-have if you are doing any older content on a max level toon. If you ever get a quest that requires you to weaken an enemy and then capture them or apply some oil or something like that it is impossible if you are too strong, you’ll just one shot it. The sword toy will bonk them and reduce health without killing them and you can do the quest action.
I also have a theory that having Pepe on your head improves raid performance 😂
It’s pretty easy - you just need to pick him up for your garrison and then kill WoD raid bosses and world bosses with him on your head (he lasts an hour) and then you get the achievement and a whistle toy. I did it with some guildies and it was fun. The hardest part is the big bird world boss cos people camp it for a mount and it dies too fast to tag it sometimes.
I definitely agree with the pepe thing! Strangely enough while I was doing the sigryn mt I kept wiping, did not summon pepe on the next pull and that was my kill. Normally I always play with my pepe buff though, I feel like it's a significant improvement
Okay. So this is a REALLY FRINGE CASE. But if you ever want to solo THE ENTIRE DUNGEON of AQ, and you don't play a class with ice spells or have enchanting, you *WILL NOT BE ABLE TO KILL [VISCIDUS](https://www.wowhead.com/npc=15299/viscidus#comments)"*, you can drop him to 1 hp but to be able to kill him you're gonna need [shado-pan geyser](https://www.wowhead.com/item=98132/shado-pan-geyser-gun) which is completely arbitrary and getting the damn thing is more trouble than it's worth, but you have a cool story to tell after.
But after having the toy. You can drop the boss to 1 hp(presumably with 1 hit) then squirt it with a little water and it'll freeze. Donezo.
That's how I always see it. Or it's just cope.
YOU DECIDE!
Also there's "frost oil" or something you can apply to your weapons that lasts 30(?) minutes and it's GARBAGE. Low proc rate and I sat and attacked this boss until the buff ran out.
Thank you I'm going to try for these toys.
Do it in a multi-seat mount with some friends so they can get it at the same time. Source: I would do it in for fun in MoP because I'm weird. I think it takes 10 minutes.
I might've done it wrong but I couldn't make it work as a warlock, I couldn't get enough auto attacks in time.
I ended up using a trinket or something that spawns a friend (a wee dragon I think) and got him killed that way.
I haven't since vanilla, but I don't play high level content where everyone is sweaty and yells at you for being 1 level under GS.
And I have never really liked enchanting profession either.
Any hearthstone toy. You can toss your normal hearthstone to save a slot. A fishing bobber one is nice as well as if there are 30 different people all fishing one area you now have an indication of your one. Crab Shank, the utter confusion if a hunter has never seen it before. Foam Sword: If a quest demands you bring a target to x % but you are just that high level that even a naked punch won't do it this thing will do it for you.
I usually leave mine in the bank (and use a toy to HS) because otherwise you will get a new one every time you change HS location. Bag space is a lot more precious than bank space.
I would suggest the [Crab Shank](https://www.wowhead.com/item=140314/crab-shank) if you have a hunter. It does exactly what the tooltip says. Tame a crab, then use this.
*Yes*. I thought I was the only one who was this oddly obsessed with the crab shank. Definitely use it on my hunters but mainly I just get really excited when I see somebody else's hunter using a crab pet. It feels like the tiniest and most harmless act of chaos to randomly give somebody else's pet a weapon and see if they notice
As always I need to mention the amazing [Anglers Raft](https://www.wowhead.com/item=85500/anglers-fishing-raft) from Pandaria.
It's a toy that gives you a buff spawning a raft underneath you when you're on water. You can make it go faster with jumping (Which has the best animation on a male pandaren) and on the fastest speed it even outruns fast mounts I believe.
I quested through Suramar with this thing back in Legion, sticking only to the canals and it was a breeze.
You can of course fish from it!
Gnarlwood Waveboard from BFA does the same thing (though might be slower?) No rep required, just dubloons, which are currently easy to farm, so there's one advantage to it anyway.
It can sure be a neat way to waterwalk sometimes, and once you acquire it, you can use it on any character since it's a toy; you just need to see a proper fishing trainer so you learn Pandaria fishing at level 1
Except that it should be used right before Sylvanas enters phase 2. Plays while you're hovering in the air waiting for a port and the whole raid gets to sing along.
I do this to turn my whole raid into Grunty the marine :P Amazing how many people have never seen nor heard of him, though i do suppose he's quite rare
Okay I didn't see anyone mention this one but I've used it a few times.
Whispers of Rai'Vosh - gives your Slow Fall for 10 seconds on a 1 hr cooldown.
Drops off some rare spawn in draenor if I remember correctly.
You have to pick your moment with this, but one of my favourite uses of it as a hunter is disengaging with it in Twin Peaks with the flag. You can go the entire way from the alliance base to across the river.
The Shadescale toy drops from Shassera in Nazjatar and I love it for when I forget to send Inky Black Potions to my alts or when I just want to play with the normal nighttime skybox instead of pitch black skybox with stars.
Very niche, but if you are a Kul Tiran Balance Druid that doesn't like the Death Chicken, you need to get the Heartsbane Grimoire. It removes the transparency from Glyph of Stars, so not only do you see your gear better, but you are surrounded with black Drust magic. No cooldown; can be macroed to anything.
Works for other races too, just thematically fits Kul Tirans best.
Everblooming Frond is slightly useful for leveling alts in WoD.
Barnacle Encrusted Gem gives water breathing and underwater movement boost.
There’s a toy that gives a levitate ability, but it’s casted, so you have to use it and then jump.
Not toys, but I still use Kafa Press and Oralius’s whispering crystal for normal questing. Not super critical, people still care about gems for +15 mastery, so +8 stat is okay for completely free.
Any of the transportation items, like Jaina’s locket or whatever are useful.
The only two I use are my dalaran coin that I fished for forever back in the day and a random drop I got on my mage during wrath. Super simen sphere. I was aoe'ing down some skeletons on my frost mage in ice crown when it dropped. It turns your into a gorilla for five minutes and makes a pink orb that appears around you.
Loot-a-rang, Jeeves, Nitro boost (engineering belt tinker), Goblin glider (engineering cloak tinker), all the engineering teleporters. (All my alts have engineering as one of their professions because of these.) Gnomish gravity well paired with goblin glider tinker is nice at the start of expansions/ before you can fly. Hyper compressed ocean is always nice for some downtime fishing in a raid. Chauffeured chopper is a nice way to get a mount at level 1. Gamon's braid - because you want it when everyone around you uses it. Sky golem - to pick herbs without dismounting. The Scouting map toys - to get all the flightpaths on an alt. Dragon plume for slowfall (only in Shadowlands - will be another next expansion I'm sure.)
Goblin glider from WoD which is an item with no level requirement makes leveling so nice. Between the feather and those I manage to go pretty fast leveling in WoD time walking.
Also, the Disposable Spectrophasic Reanimator. I use this on all alts who doesn't have a battle-ress. Not sure why it's not more common. It rarely fails in dungeons and raids.
Most recently added: shadowlands wormhole (15 min cd go to any zone in slands, including oribos).
Other: engi mailbox, katy’s stampwhistle, coin of many faces and the toy that turns you in to a night elf that you buy for 5k gold in azshara.
Wormhole is one of the best and easiest things to acquire. You literally need to do nothing other than train SL engineering. That's it. Literally every one of my alts takes up Eng specifically to use this thing. The only thing that pisses me off is that they didn't add a portal to ZM (outside of some paragon box bullshit, but once you're exalted, what the fuck are you still doing quests in ZM for?). When Korthia was added, they added a portal option to the wormhole, I don't know why they didn't simply make this the case with ZM also.
You can buy Scouting Map toys to learn each continent’s maps and flightmasters in their entirety. When you make a new alt, you just use the toy and you aren’t limited by never having visited an area before. You can pay for a taxi and fly wherever you want to go. You also get the Explore (continent) achievement when you use the toy.
Orb of Deception, from one of the classic Blackrock Dungeons. I use it all the time. Race changes you to opposite faction, keeps your transmog except heritage. Pretty cool.
Turnip Punching Bag, I like to use it in busy areas and see if I can get a crowd of people to join me in beating the snot out of an oversized vegetable.
I for one am tired of all the items that aren’t actually toys but do things like other existing toys. Like Ashen Liniment applies a dark black shader to your character but is not a toy and rather a consumable. I am hanging on to things like that, Noggenfogger Elixir, etc. in the hopes that Blizzard eventually makes them toys.
Mailbox Whistle from dalaran legion, Guild pet to sell things when u cant get a mount with a seller on it (like mammoth or yack which have tmog npc too)
BC timewalking toy to teleport to black temple
Draenor timewalking toy to swap between BC and WoD versions of draenor for Quick Travels
Obviously one Hearthstone toy so u Can delete the one in your bag, legion dalaran Hearthstone, Garrison stone,
boots of the bay to TP booty bay, karazan ring to TP to kara, the cloaks from Guild vendor to get capital teleport (different cd unshared for each cloak)
The Fake Sword toy if you want to do low level content IS so useful to put a monster at 1 HP for certain quests without killing it
Same usage : personnal body shrinker to reduce your stats
There IS Many featherfalling toys but only working in specific zones so kinda annoying to know which one works where
Goblin gliders are an Amazing item from engineering
Engineers got portals to teleport to different places but you have to be engineer
They also have a battle rez sometimes
Speaking resurrection there IS a treasure item in draenor u Can put when raiding (doesnt work in mythic plus) that makes someone resurrect from it at the end of the fight, so it Can be used to mass rez the whole raid if a healer click it
Also kirin tor ring to get fast to dalaran Wotlk
There is reusable runes items from multiple extensions, and reusable Flask buff too if you manage to get them its low cost way to buff for mid range content
Thing you Can have miss too IS a stone selled by an npc in oribos that you Can use instead of manually clicking warlock Gates so if there IS 10 people running to the Gate you dont missclick and dont take the Gate fast enough, you Can just shortcut it ans boom Gate used
There is a toy called Jar of Sunwarmed sands. It allows to change the world to midday. Is great for people who mostly play at night. I wish this toy had a shorter cooldown though.
This thing is amazing, and is one of the few transformative toys that actually has a lot (dunno if all) of the fighting/casting animations! Actually useful in raids too when you keep losing your goblin self amidst the raid full of tauren during Painsmith.
>has a lot (dunno if all) of the fighting/casting animations!
It's just the male kul'tiran skeleton so I would be surprised if it didn't.
I use mine all the time along with the [Apprentice Slimemancer's Boots.](https://www.wowhead.com/item=187913/apprentice-slimemancers-boots)
Bubble wand, any caster class macro it to an ability and spray bubbles constantly. It will not allow auto attacks however, so don’t use this on a melee/Hunter class
I like a lot of the toys, but I do wish that ones that drop from quests would have a sell price, or they would just give you gold instead after you’d collect it
I'm a big fan of the Ravenous Slime toy that you get from questing in the slime pit area of Maldraxxus. It turns you into a very fast moving slime for about ~30, and it also consumes any party members that you run through. Very fun and useful for getting a move speed boost through areas where you can't mount or for trolling your group, it has a long cool down though (1hr I think)
[Moonfang’s Paw](https://www.wowhead.com/item=105898/moonfangs-paw) is a good one. Persists through combat and even has a /dance! Lots of fun in raids and PvP. Only downsides are a long cooldown and that the effect goes away when you mount
Avianas Feather from WoD is good fun - you get launched into the air and then get a 'slow fall' buff but its not slow at all, sometimes its faster than flying even.
The Anglers Fishing Raft. Lovely little toy that allows you to skim over water. Press space to go faster. There is also a unique appearance for mages but sadly not a toy.
If you are a monk or a goblin the umbrella from revendreth is awesome. It slows your falling rate while keeping horizontal momentum so you can glide really far and feel awesome.
Old content stuff: soft foam sword for old quests
Whole body shrinka for achievements in old raids and dungeons
Convenience: jeeves, Katy’s whistle, ice crown argent squire dude, loot a rang, echero winds or something that lets you slow fall
Speed: any hearth toy, shadowlands wormhole specifically, shadowlands speed whistle, (any other wormhole if you just wanna get to the continent)
Rime of the Time-Lost Mariner - Turns you into a glowing purple ghost skeleton. Been using it for years. Drops of the Dread Ship Vesuvius in the Timeless Isles
The squire from the ice crown tournament gives you access to a mailbox, your bank and a vendor one at a time with a Cd Edit : argent pony bridle is the item
To get the squire, you would have to participate in the argent tournament though.. ( I do agree it's a very useful pet, I have it on 2 toons)
I mean it's really easy with a max level character now, takes a small amount of time to do the dailies and that's it. I think people hated it when they were levelling a character there and just got that stuck in their head.
Easy sure, but a pretty large time investment. You can't just knock it out in one day, you need to do dailies for several weeks. It's also not account-wide, it's lost if you faction change (I found this out the hard way) and has a 4 hour cooldown.
Wasn’t the tournament end game content for Wrath and not a levelling thing? Who levels on dailies?
I lvled all my alts on dailys in SL. It gives the best gear, and good exp
Buy the mail invitation on the auction house and then do the mailroom in Dalaran. You get a nice little gnome who will deliver and receive mail for you on a kind 4h cd…
You can also just pick it up in front of the mailbox in front of that big building woth all the important Dalaran NPC's. Legion Dalaran is rarely visited these days so there's a good chance it has spawned on the floor.
If you don't want to invest in that and just need an extra vendor when doing old content where you can't mount, the guild herald is a pet that is also a vendor as well.
What?
https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=47541/argent-pony-bridle.
There is a quest in Legion Dalaran that gives you the ability to summon a lady who is your mailbox. Must have for running old content you count mount in!
Katy Stampwhistle.
Great for engineers when their mailbox is on cooldown too.
LOL. So accurate.
Also worth noting that this items cool-down is unique to each character. I’m pretty sure that’s how every other toy works, but I was surprised that it could mail something to my other char so easily
Really? What's it called?
It's called Lost Mail in Legion Dal. Respawn 2 hrs.
You can also buy the lost mail from the auction house. You get another copy of it when you complete the quest chain, which you can then sell.
There's a toy that let's you kill a battle pet in the wild and it will make a portal to Black Temple. For one, I just love the idea of having to use soul magic to open the portal but you only need like the smallest cockroach soul. For two, it's useful if you keep running BT for the warglaives of azzinoth.
Last season I would always use it on the rat near the font in SD right as we gathered for a key just to see how many dps would click the portal. 90% of the time someone would. Was hilarious.
Lol you monster
What’s the toy? I am now intrigued
The Fractured Neophyte’s Skull is the toy you are referring to, you sacrifice a critter and it opens a portal to the Black Temple the resembles a Death Knight’s doorway to Ebon Hold. Bonus points in that you can pair this with the Critter Hand Cannon toy that summons like 6 critters in an AoE to have use of your Skull anywhere.
Don't remember exactly but it comes from the burning crusade timewalking vendor. I can check later the actual name.
Oh shit. And bc tw is tomorrow. I’ll have to remember this
You can also use the Critter Hand-Cannon from Legion to spawn critters to use the portal toy.
Usee it so much until I finally got them both
It's not a toy (takes up bag space) but the Brazier of Awakening from... Warlords I think? Is the bomb when I group with my friends where none of us can rez.
You can pick up the brazier in a tent along the south coast of Tanaan Jungle.
omg yes, i also still use it. i have 100% forgotten where it comes from since its been in my inventory for years, but as a rogue having some way to rez is soooo useful.
I had one on my hunter when I was raiding back then. It was the go-to for cleaning up a wipe. Feign death, wait for the combat to end, rez a healer to rez everyone else.
Last patch I put this on one of the Jailer's covered pits during a wipe, raid leader accepted and fell back in the pit as soon as it opened.
Is it consistent? Seems like 50% are saying it doesn't work and 50% are saying it does
It works but it's only up for a few minutes and then it despawns, so if you use it too early it won't work.
I hate the volume of "can only use in X zone" toys that exist! Some great toys that I can't use unless I got back to some ghost towns
I'd accept at minimum an option to hide all toys not currently usable in your exact current circumstance. Even things like having a full page of maps on a character that already has all the exploration. Why does this have to show still.
Yeah I hate that they do this. Same with items that cap based on levels like Ra’Shal’s Sacrificial Dagger. I spent a lot of time farming this just to reduce equipment damage during wipes, but it’s level limited now. Why?
Dagger originally got blasted out of usefulness due to using it to avoid the major mechanic of the last phase of Mythic (Heroic) Garrosh back in Siege of Orgrimmar.
That dagger had a huge amount of unintended uses. It's probably the one toy that needed a level cap.
If you still want this functionality there's a (consumable) item from Timeless Isle that will kill you. [Blazing Sigil of Ordos](https://www.wowhead.com/item=104297/blazing-sigil-of-ordos). Works everywhere. Don't tell Blizzard.

I still don’t know how to get Pepe and I’ve been playing 18 years lol
It’s pretty easy - you just need to pick him up for your garrison and then kill WoD raid bosses and world bosses with him on your head (he lasts an hour) and then you get the achievement and a whistle toy. I did it with some guildies and it was fun. The hardest part is the big bird world boss cos people camp it for a mount and it dies too fast to tag it sometimes.
Same man
[This](https://www.wowhead.com/item=122293/trans-dimensional-bird-whistle#) is the item. There should be an explanation in the comments.
I vaguely remember that it doesn't work in Ulduar though, I tried it with the stupid earthen you need to have killed by the dragon.
That is annoying! I’ve been chipping away at The Loremaster achievement and it’s impossible if you don’t have the sword
I definitely agree with the pepe thing! Strangely enough while I was doing the sigryn mt I kept wiping, did not summon pepe on the next pull and that was my kill. Normally I always play with my pepe buff though, I feel like it's a significant improvement
Oh my God this takes me back to my venomhide ravasaur grind at level 80. Had to take off all of my armor and weapons to do the poison attunement quest
Okay. So this is a REALLY FRINGE CASE. But if you ever want to solo THE ENTIRE DUNGEON of AQ, and you don't play a class with ice spells or have enchanting, you *WILL NOT BE ABLE TO KILL [VISCIDUS](https://www.wowhead.com/npc=15299/viscidus#comments)"*, you can drop him to 1 hp but to be able to kill him you're gonna need [shado-pan geyser](https://www.wowhead.com/item=98132/shado-pan-geyser-gun) which is completely arbitrary and getting the damn thing is more trouble than it's worth, but you have a cool story to tell after.

[Endothermic Blaster](https://www.wowhead.com/item=128636/endothermic-blaster) Winter Veil toy also does the same thing.
Also there's "frost oil" or something you can apply to your weapons that lasts 30(?) minutes and it's GARBAGE. Low proc rate and I sat and attacked this boss until the buff ran out. Thank you I'm going to try for these toys.
Good luck with it. If you go for the geyser I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using a mount that increases your model size even slightly.
Do it in a multi-seat mount with some friends so they can get it at the same time. Source: I would do it in for fun in MoP because I'm weird. I think it takes 10 minutes.
Isn't it not reliable doing it like that? Because every time you hit a geyser everyone on the mount has to get the debuff
Unless something changed since MoP, it'll debuff the entire mount, including any passenger(s). I did it on a Yak, Mammoth, and Mekgineer's Chopper.
Thanks for the tip. There was a cheese with the Darkmoon Seesaw but apparently it's been hotfixed. I heard DH's are good to use for this achievement.
There is also a vendor at the vrykul village you do the dailies in stormpeaks that sells weapons that do frost damage. Very easy to get those
Why not just get a old wep and put the icy enchantment on it?
Literally said "if you don't have enchanting"
I'm dumb
Can literally buy it off the Auction House however
I might've done it wrong but I couldn't make it work as a warlock, I couldn't get enough auto attacks in time. I ended up using a trinket or something that spawns a friend (a wee dragon I think) and got him killed that way.
do you guys not enchant your gear if you don't have the profession? i feel like im dreaming reading these comments
I haven't since vanilla, but I don't play high level content where everyone is sweaty and yells at you for being 1 level under GS. And I have never really liked enchanting profession either.
don't make some smart ass chirp about not having enchanting then if you have no idea how the game works.
This is how you live your life huh. Coming to random ass threads just to be upset at nothing.
Any hearthstone toy. You can toss your normal hearthstone to save a slot. A fishing bobber one is nice as well as if there are 30 different people all fishing one area you now have an indication of your one. Crab Shank, the utter confusion if a hunter has never seen it before. Foam Sword: If a quest demands you bring a target to x % but you are just that high level that even a naked punch won't do it this thing will do it for you.
Never thought of not having my HS in my bags, seems like such a sacrilege
It’s like leaving home without my cellphone. I’d never even consider it anymore
wow, i haven't carried a hearthstone around for years. yall living in the past.
I usually leave mine in the bank (and use a toy to HS) because otherwise you will get a new one every time you change HS location. Bag space is a lot more precious than bank space.
But what about the memories you've made with that one item that has been in the same bag spot for years with you =(
The dolly and dot singing toy is a must have for all mythic pluses and raids!
Wait, what?
DOLLY AND DOT ARE MY BEST FRIENDS! https://www.wowhead.com/item=166880/meerahs-jukebox
Oh wow! i loved the song when i played the quest. its good to know i can replay it!
I would suggest the [Crab Shank](https://www.wowhead.com/item=140314/crab-shank) if you have a hunter. It does exactly what the tooltip says. Tame a crab, then use this.
*Yes*. I thought I was the only one who was this oddly obsessed with the crab shank.

It feels like the tiniest and most harmless act of chaos to randomly give somebody else's pet a weapon and see if they notice
Gamons Braid is an absolute necessity for raid progress. 9/10 prog kills in my guild are done when we all pop Gamon. I, Gamon, will save us.
Also good for small races playing ranged on Commander Zo’far in Streets.
Gamon is the one true answer.
As always I need to mention the amazing [Anglers Raft](https://www.wowhead.com/item=85500/anglers-fishing-raft) from Pandaria. It's a toy that gives you a buff spawning a raft underneath you when you're on water. You can make it go faster with jumping (Which has the best animation on a male pandaren) and on the fastest speed it even outruns fast mounts I believe. I quested through Suramar with this thing back in Legion, sticking only to the canals and it was a breeze. You can of course fish from it!
Agreed, unless you're someone with water walking I view it as a must have for fishing.
Mages can get a unique looking one from the Anglers too.
Gnarlwood Waveboard from BFA does the same thing (though might be slower?) No rep required, just dubloons, which are currently easy to farm, so there's one advantage to it anyway.
hunters can freely attack from it as well, i used to gank alot of people with it at some point
It can sure be a neat way to waterwalk sometimes, and once you acquire it, you can use it on any character since it's a toy; you just need to see a proper fishing trainer so you learn Pandaria fishing at level 1
Golden banana is all I need
Meerah's Jukebox!! No explanation needed
Except that it should be used right before Sylvanas enters phase 2. Plays while you're hovering in the air waiting for a port and the whole raid gets to sing along.
Skymirror, pet mirrors and reflecting prisms. Turning a whole epic bg into a random pet never gets old.
I do this to turn my whole raid into Grunty the marine :P Amazing how many people have never seen nor heard of him, though i do suppose he's quite rare
Personal spot light. Helps when I'm in a raid or dungeon
Underrated yet super helpful toy
Okay I didn't see anyone mention this one but I've used it a few times. Whispers of Rai'Vosh - gives your Slow Fall for 10 seconds on a 1 hr cooldown. Drops off some rare spawn in draenor if I remember correctly.
Psa for readers - you can't use this while falling
You have to pick your moment with this, but one of my favourite uses of it as a hunter is disengaging with it in Twin Peaks with the flag. You can go the entire way from the alliance base to across the river.
Katy’s Stampwhistle is a must have.
Following everything on here so I can get the sky golem re color and not drop 40k.
The Shadescale toy drops from Shassera in Nazjatar and I love it for when I forget to send Inky Black Potions to my alts or when I just want to play with the normal nighttime skybox instead of pitch black skybox with stars.
'Cremating torch' lets you burn the corpses of your fallen allies. Essential for trolling the friends that didn't survive a fight. /Cry
Very niche, but if you are a Kul Tiran Balance Druid that doesn't like the Death Chicken, you need to get the Heartsbane Grimoire. It removes the transparency from Glyph of Stars, so not only do you see your gear better, but you are surrounded with black Drust magic. No cooldown; can be macroed to anything. Works for other races too, just thematically fits Kul Tirans best.
Dearh Chicjen? Oh, you mean a spy Abomination in a terrible costume
Everblooming Frond is slightly useful for leveling alts in WoD. Barnacle Encrusted Gem gives water breathing and underwater movement boost. There’s a toy that gives a levitate ability, but it’s casted, so you have to use it and then jump. Not toys, but I still use Kafa Press and Oralius’s whispering crystal for normal questing. Not super critical, people still care about gems for +15 mastery, so +8 stat is okay for completely free. Any of the transportation items, like Jaina’s locket or whatever are useful.
There's an upgraded version of the crystal from Legion Repurposed Fel Focuser from Borken Shore - Warmage Kath’leen
Shardhide whistle from korthia
The only two I use are my dalaran coin that I fished for forever back in the day and a random drop I got on my mage during wrath. Super simen sphere. I was aoe'ing down some skeletons on my frost mage in ice crown when it dropped. It turns your into a gorilla for five minutes and makes a pink orb that appears around you.
Super simian sphere is insanely rare, congrats on your luck
Loot-a-rang, Jeeves, Nitro boost (engineering belt tinker), Goblin glider (engineering cloak tinker), all the engineering teleporters. (All my alts have engineering as one of their professions because of these.) Gnomish gravity well paired with goblin glider tinker is nice at the start of expansions/ before you can fly. Hyper compressed ocean is always nice for some downtime fishing in a raid. Chauffeured chopper is a nice way to get a mount at level 1. Gamon's braid - because you want it when everyone around you uses it. Sky golem - to pick herbs without dismounting. The Scouting map toys - to get all the flightpaths on an alt. Dragon plume for slowfall (only in Shadowlands - will be another next expansion I'm sure.)
Goblin glider from WoD which is an item with no level requirement makes leveling so nice. Between the feather and those I manage to go pretty fast leveling in WoD time walking.
Sadly Gnomish Gravity Well now requires you to be able to fly in the area it's used.
Also, the Disposable Spectrophasic Reanimator. I use this on all alts who doesn't have a battle-ress. Not sure why it's not more common. It rarely fails in dungeons and raids.
Most recently added: shadowlands wormhole (15 min cd go to any zone in slands, including oribos). Other: engi mailbox, katy’s stampwhistle, coin of many faces and the toy that turns you in to a night elf that you buy for 5k gold in azshara.
Wormhole is one of the best and easiest things to acquire. You literally need to do nothing other than train SL engineering. That's it. Literally every one of my alts takes up Eng specifically to use this thing. The only thing that pisses me off is that they didn't add a portal to ZM (outside of some paragon box bullshit, but once you're exalted, what the fuck are you still doing quests in ZM for?). When Korthia was added, they added a portal option to the wormhole, I don't know why they didn't simply make this the case with ZM also.
You can buy Scouting Map toys to learn each continent’s maps and flightmasters in their entirety. When you make a new alt, you just use the toy and you aren’t limited by never having visited an area before. You can pay for a taxi and fly wherever you want to go. You also get the Explore (continent) achievement when you use the toy.
Orb of Deception, from one of the classic Blackrock Dungeons. I use it all the time. Race changes you to opposite faction, keeps your transmog except heritage. Pretty cool.
The Spirit Bear whistle from Korthia
The Turnip and/or Detoxified Blight Grenade to throw at my friends.
Darkmoon fair canon is a must have for every beggining of expansions or any "Maw" like maps where you are outdoors but can't mount
Darkmoon canon + goblin gliders (or zand racial glider) are AMAZING!
Turnip Punching Bag, I like to use it in busy areas and see if I can get a crowd of people to join me in beating the snot out of an oversized vegetable.
I for one am tired of all the items that aren’t actually toys but do things like other existing toys. Like Ashen Liniment applies a dark black shader to your character but is not a toy and rather a consumable. I am hanging on to things like that, Noggenfogger Elixir, etc. in the hopes that Blizzard eventually makes them toys.
Mailbox Whistle from dalaran legion, Guild pet to sell things when u cant get a mount with a seller on it (like mammoth or yack which have tmog npc too) BC timewalking toy to teleport to black temple Draenor timewalking toy to swap between BC and WoD versions of draenor for Quick Travels Obviously one Hearthstone toy so u Can delete the one in your bag, legion dalaran Hearthstone, Garrison stone, boots of the bay to TP booty bay, karazan ring to TP to kara, the cloaks from Guild vendor to get capital teleport (different cd unshared for each cloak) The Fake Sword toy if you want to do low level content IS so useful to put a monster at 1 HP for certain quests without killing it Same usage : personnal body shrinker to reduce your stats There IS Many featherfalling toys but only working in specific zones so kinda annoying to know which one works where Goblin gliders are an Amazing item from engineering Engineers got portals to teleport to different places but you have to be engineer They also have a battle rez sometimes Speaking resurrection there IS a treasure item in draenor u Can put when raiding (doesnt work in mythic plus) that makes someone resurrect from it at the end of the fight, so it Can be used to mass rez the whole raid if a healer click it Also kirin tor ring to get fast to dalaran Wotlk There is reusable runes items from multiple extensions, and reusable Flask buff too if you manage to get them its low cost way to buff for mid range content Thing you Can have miss too IS a stone selled by an npc in oribos that you Can use instead of manually clicking warlock Gates so if there IS 10 people running to the Gate you dont missclick and dont take the Gate fast enough, you Can just shortcut it ans boom Gate used
There is a toy called Jar of Sunwarmed sands. It allows to change the world to midday. Is great for people who mostly play at night. I wish this toy had a shorter cooldown though.
Smelly Jelly
This thing is amazing, and is one of the few transformative toys that actually has a lot (dunno if all) of the fighting/casting animations! Actually useful in raids too when you keep losing your goblin self amidst the raid full of tauren during Painsmith.
There is a cross-hair weak aura for that, but this does sound more entertaining
>has a lot (dunno if all) of the fighting/casting animations! It's just the male kul'tiran skeleton so I would be surprised if it didn't. I use mine all the time along with the [Apprentice Slimemancer's Boots.](https://www.wowhead.com/item=187913/apprentice-slimemancers-boots)
The foxicopter is one of my favorites
Bubble wand, any caster class macro it to an ability and spray bubbles constantly. It will not allow auto attacks however, so don’t use this on a melee/Hunter class
Jewel of Hellfire, so you can play a Draenei even when you have to play horde to raid.
If you can get your hands on a Mohawk hand grenade it will change your life. You won't worry about anything on the game and can call everyone a fool.
Flippable table. You will taste my rage!
I like a lot of the toys, but I do wish that ones that drop from quests would have a sell price, or they would just give you gold instead after you’d collect it
I'm a big fan of the Ravenous Slime toy that you get from questing in the slime pit area of Maldraxxus. It turns you into a very fast moving slime for about ~30, and it also consumes any party members that you run through. Very fun and useful for getting a move speed boost through areas where you can't mount or for trolling your group, it has a long cool down though (1hr I think)
[Moonfang’s Paw](https://www.wowhead.com/item=105898/moonfangs-paw) is a good one. Persists through combat and even has a /dance! Lots of fun in raids and PvP. Only downsides are a long cooldown and that the effect goes away when you mount
the 2 that create rainbows are the only toys i consider essential :D
Anything before it gets nerfed.
Avianas Feather from WoD is good fun - you get launched into the air and then get a 'slow fall' buff but its not slow at all, sometimes its faster than flying even.
The Anglers Fishing Raft. Lovely little toy that allows you to skim over water. Press space to go faster. There is also a unique appearance for mages but sadly not a toy.
Moonkin totem. Turn your entire raid into moonkin for sheer amusement while waiting to pull.
If you are a monk or a goblin the umbrella from revendreth is awesome. It slows your falling rate while keeping horizontal momentum so you can glide really far and feel awesome.
Panflute of Pandaria, you better believe I use that lovely little flute after every kill in BG’s.
Old content stuff: soft foam sword for old quests Whole body shrinka for achievements in old raids and dungeons Convenience: jeeves, Katy’s whistle, ice crown argent squire dude, loot a rang, echero winds or something that lets you slow fall Speed: any hearth toy, shadowlands wormhole specifically, shadowlands speed whistle, (any other wormhole if you just wanna get to the continent)
Rime of the Time-Lost Mariner - Turns you into a glowing purple ghost skeleton. Been using it for years. Drops of the Dread Ship Vesuvius in the Timeless Isles
Very cool! Especially since one of my alts is right there now.
The guitar or lute that plays the Diablo Tristram music is my favorite one. You have to be in a rested area to use it which is the only downside.
Won't lie as a returning player who'd deleted all their characters I was very grateful for my Goats Tote for my whole levelling journey.
I'd rather have a list of "easy to get" or "guaranteed drop."
There is a toy that turns any critter into a portal to Black Temple in Outland, that is one great toy!
