I got this drop personal from fyrakk N kill, it said attune yourself to the dream render’s anthem. I used it and nothing happened.
Any idea what it is?
Hunter pet.

Wrong Item. Cinder of companionship is the hunter thing for the Owl.
Was it Legendary color? Screenshot? Anything other than just saying you got it?
Any new quests pop up inside or outside the raid? Check Central Encampment?
it was purple, epic. I used it my toon went glowing red for 5 seconds and that was it, nothing else happened
Did you check the major town areas for a new quest popup?
yea nothing
Also just got it to drop, used it and it seems nothing new. My guess it makes the legendary have a higher chance of dropping?

I am thinking it is a token to prove “bad luck protection”. It saying it is “attuning” to the Dream Render (the axe). All of the warriors, dks, and pallies that were spec’d into DPS in our normal Fyrakk kill got it.

Might just have been a lucky duck and got the new legendary then. Could be bugged where it should start dropping for all difficulties (like the Evoker leggo).
Or its the bad luck protection which Blizz hinted at when they were revealing the 10.2 info.
I got it too on Normal. When used it deals damage to me and nothing more happened.
On Combat Log says: “Fyr’alath’s Embrace hit you 109.018 Shadowflame.”
I don’t found anything online that could give hints of this item yet…
Safe to assume this is the drop protection advancement blizzard is talking about. Most likely, every one of those shards you collect from Heroic and below (1x for mythic if you kill it), it will gradually increase your weekly drop %.
This is similar to how the evoker leggo worked but it was more behind the scenes rather than a given item.
Edit: I also wouldn’t be surprised if, in the coming months, someone figured out the actual % increase the shards give and you can start tracking your actual increased weekly %-tile
No idea, but I heard actual item won’t start dropping for each region (different modes) until the first axe is completed in each one.
Meeres completed it for EU, so I assume it will start dropping for them on reset, where as NA, Scot would have to finish the quest before it starts dropping.
I am basing this off what was said in Liquids stream, when they were deciding who to give it to.
Probably wrong, hope I am, but if that’s the case probably might wanna wait
Possible. They did say they liked the way the Evoker one worked but that they also wanted to give players a way to work towards it. Maybe this is the way to work towards getting it, until you actually get it. But what we need to know is if its just 100% BL protection until next week or until Scott completes it 100%
This is what I believe as well. The evoker’s one was invisible so people questioned whether it was a thing. This is Blizzard’s way of showing there’s something.
That being said, it’s interesting to know that normal also dropped a “Greater Ember” like Heroic does. This implies the bad luck protection is the same, when it should probably be higher for Heroic (and Mythic, if one is already that far).

Can confirm upon killing Fryakk in Normal today AFTER Meeres completed the Axe quest in the EU, three of us (2 Ret, 1 Unholy DK) all received the Greater Ember drop.
I am assuming since he obtained the equip-able axe, and the leggo achievement, that it is now active as a global unlock happened more than likely. Would like some Blue Confirmation on this; but seems that BLP for the Axe is now on.
Using the item did 105k Shadowflame damage to us; and nothing more, assuming this is to somehow draw the Axe to us. (AKA Bad Luck Protection)

So confirmed, it is not a tank weapon then right? I don’t play DPS so if so then I get to completely ignore chasing the axe which would be nice lol.
I got it specced as Holy Loot so I don’t think it’s a spec thing
