Rethelshi no longer has a vendor tab? what up with this?
You go to the upgrade vendor in the PVP area now â however i just tried to upgrade the off hand and it lets me go though the motions then tells me âitem cannot be modifiedâ
ok great. But what about the PVE vendor trade in storm eggs from the primal storms?
Welcome to Wowheadâs Dragonflight Primal Storms guide! This guide aims to cover everything about Primal Storms, one of the World Events that can appear in the Dragonflight expansion. We detail everything from things to do in the event to a list of rewards of doing said events.
Why Should I Participate in Primal Storms?
There are some reasons players might be interested in farming Primal Invasions:
-
If you missed your chance at crafting the Unstable Elemental Confluence Heirloom trinket during the Dragonflight Pre-Patch event, youâre able to use Dragonflight Primal Invasions to craft the trinket;
-
You can obtain the Blue version from the Raging Tempest gear appearance. The gear also has stats and even a set bonus, but it is not recommended to use Primal Invasions as your main source of gear - The starter ilvl of 359 is already weaker than most sources of gear from before Dragonflight Season 1, and itâll only get worse with Season 1 sources of gear.
-
For collectors and completionists, there are achievements and even two Battle Pets ( Ghostflame and Stormie) and a Mount Stormhide Salamanther.
-
There are also several profession recipes that can drop from Primal Invasion mobs:
-
Jewelcrafters can obtain Design: Elemental Lariat, which crafts into Elemental Lariat, a powerful necklace;
-
Enchanters are able to drop several weapon illusions: Formula: Illusion: Primal Air, Formula: Illusion: Primal Earth, Formula: Illusion: Primal Fire, Formula: Illusion: Primal Frost

Primal Storms Basics
Primalist Invasions are a new type of event that happens in Dragonflight. Every 3 hours, two Dragon Isles zones will receive a Primalist force invasion in certain areas. The locations are marked with a red X on your Dragon Isles map. Invasions last for 2 hours and there will be no invasions available on the map for 1 hour, giving them an effective 3-hour rotation.
There are four types of Invasions that can happen: Storm, Earth, Fire, and Water Primalist invasions. Each invasion fills the area with Primalist NPCs, as well as imbuing already existing NPCs in the area with abilities of the invading element. The invaded area also changes to more closely match the attacking element.

There are no set objectives on Primal Invasions - The objective here is to grind NPCs to collect currency and purchase gear. Youâre able to purchase two tiers of gear with Primalist Invasions, one on a currency that can be grinded whenever an invasion is up, and a rarer currency available on a weekly basis.
-
Elemental Overflow is the main currency that drops from Primal Invasion, dropping from almost all mobs in the invasion. Elemental Overflow is used to purchase the Rare quality (ilvl359) gear from invasions, as well as mounts and pets.
-
Storm Sigil is a weekly currency that can be obtained once per type of invasion per week. Storm Sigils are used to upgrade Rare-quality invasion gear into Epic quality gear (ilvl385).
Primal Storms Rewards
There are plenty of rewards for players willing to do Primal Invasions, raging from pets, mounts and achievements.
Unstable Elemental Confluence Heirloom Trinket
The Unstable Elemental Confluence Heirloom trinket originally available during the Dragonflight Pre-Patch event is available to obtain once more during the Dragonflight Primal Invasions. As this event is structurally different from the Pre-Patch event, it is currently unknown how to obtain the pieces that constitute the trinket - Dimmed Primeval Earth, Dimmed Primeval Fire, Dimmed Primeval Storm, Dimmed Primeval Water.
It is currently theorized that these pieces will simply be a low drop rate from mobs in Primal Invasions. The guide will be updated accordingly once more is discovered about how to obtain the Unstable Elemental Confluence trinket.
Primal Invasion Profession Patterns
Some Profession Patterns can be obtained from Primal Invasions, as a low drop rate chance:
-
Jewelcrafters can obtain Design: Elemental Lariat, which crafts into Elemental Lariat, a powerful necklace;
-
Enchanters are able to drop several weapon illusions: Formula: Illusion: Primal Air, Formula: Illusion: Primal Earth, Formula: Illusion: Primal Fire, Formula: Illusion: Primal Frost.
Primal Storms Mount and Pets
Players are able to obtain a mount and several Battle Pets in Primal Invasions:
Elemental Overflow Mount and Pet Purchases
You can obtain two battle pets and one mount from Primal Invasions. All of these rewards can be purchased from Mythressa in Valdrakken, and they cost Elemental Overflow.
Ghostflame
Cost: 1000 Elemental Overflow
A dream of the memory of fire.
Stormie
Cost: 1000 Elemental Overflow
As an egg, this proto-drake was struck by a freak bolt of lightning. Years later, the lightning still lives inside.
Stormhide Salamanther
Cost: 2000 Elemental Overflow
Sometimes when storm energies infuse a creature, it simply⊠becomes larger and more placid. Few salamanthers are willing to be ridden, but these children of the storm are a notable exception.
Primal Storm Pet Drops
The following Battle Pets have a low chance to drop in invasions:
Echo of the Heights
Chance to drop from Storm Invasion mobs
In the mountain air, frost lingers upon the grass as a storm rolls in.
Echo of the Depths
Chance to drop from Water Invasion mobs
What the deep claims, none can reclaim.
Echo of the Inferno
Chance to drop from Fire Invasion mobs
A spark can become an ember. An ember can become a raging fire. This creature was never a spark or an ember, it has only ever been a raging fire.
Echo of the Cave
Chance to drop from Earth Invasion mobs
Formed by the reckless use of elemental magic, the slumbering earth awakens. It is angry.
Primal Storms Gear
Primal Invasions offer two tiers of gear: A starter Rare-quality set gear, offered at ilvl359, and a way to improve that first set of gear with an Epic-quality ilvl385 gear. Primal Invasion gear covers all slots but Necklaces, Rings and Trinkets. Primal Invasion gear also offers set bonuses that help improve your damage and survivability while outdoors in the Dragon Isles.
Elemental Overflow Gear (ilvl359)
This is the basic gear from Primal Invasions, which can be purchased with Elemental Overflow, the currency that drops from all mobs from the invasion. Mythressa is the NPC that sells these pieces of gear, in Valdrakken.
Gear Slot | Cost |
---|---|
Belts, Bracers, Cloaks | 200 |
Off-Hands, Shields | 300 |
Boots, Gloves, Shoulders | 350 |
Strength/Agility 1H Weapons | 400 |
Chests, Helms, Pants, Intellect 1H Weapons | 500 |
All 2H Weapons, Ranged Weapons | 800 |
Storm Sigil Gear (ilvl 385)
The improved gear from Primal Invasions can be purchased from Storm Sigil. Storms Sigils can be obtained once a week per invasion (with each quest giving 2 Storm Sigils), by looting an item that has a low chance to drop from all mobs in that invasion. As there are four types of invasions that can happen per week, this means you can obtain a total of 8 Storm Sigils per week .
-
Storm Invasions - Primal Air Core - Dissipating the Air Primalists
-
Earth Invasions - Primal Earth Core - Shattering the Earth Primalists
-
Fire Invasions - Primal Fire Core - Extinguishing the Fire Primalists
-
Water Invasions - Primal Water Core - Vaporizing the Water Primalists
All Storm Sigil quests are turned in to Rethelshi in Valdrakken, who also serves as the vendor for Storm Sigil gear. You can also talk to Rethelshi at any time to check your progression on how many Storm Sigils you looted for the week, and which invasions you might be missing sigils for.
Purchasing gear from Storm Sigils requires a certain number of Storm Sigils, plus their equivalent in the Elemental Overflow gear . IE, you wanna purchase a ilvl385 Storm Sigil chest, you need to exchange your ilvl359 Elemental Overflow chest plus the amount of Sigils used to purchase it.
Are you a bot? All that testament and didnât answer the OPâs question. And in fact, your info is outdated because Rethelshi doesnât sell storm gear anymore, which was the initial purpose of this post.
bruh why would you copy and paste crap we already know and doesnât answer the opâs question?
He has been reported for hacking and botting.
dude just did a copy paste. lol calm down
back to the question, where do we buy this stuff now? is it on the new primal invasion vendor?
Yeah but he didnât answer the question. Itâs absolute, unnecessary spam.
and it ainât botting or hacking
The tokens can be used to upgrade gear with item upgrade vender. but there is lots of inconsistancies. looks like blue gear upgrades better then it did before. like 470 ilvl pvp. but if you bought primal infused gear from any set⊠no upgrade path. but any blue or epic gear the is not infused upgrades once! So all the tokens we just spent feel waisted on 385 pve gear with 421 pvp
no idea wth youâre talking about. the op wants to know where the vendor went for the 385 primal storm gear.
itâs gone! you use the item upgrade vendors now.
seems dumb lol why remove stuff that people know where itâs at? what is this upgrade vendor where?
that said upgrade are ⊠weird atm.
like a blue quality drakebreaker cloak is 1/2 and 366 ilvl with 408 pvp ilvl it upgrades to 404 ilvl with 476 pvp ilvl.
the same item just last week upgraded to primal infused gear with 385 ilvl and 421 pvp ilvl. with no upgrades attached to the item.
This change penalises everyone that just spent there currency to upgrade to 385/421 gear
You now upgrade the primal storm gear at the NPC in the Valdrakken PVP room, heâs called âCorxian (Item Upgrades)â.
itâs broken, iâd hold off upgrading till after wednesday maintenance.
Thanks so much, Solution
Just grabbed a dagger and came here to piss and moan about not upgrading but was happy to find this post on top then only to piss and moan that I canât upgrade itâŠyet.
sigh
this is dumb. no reason to change this and break it.
