Purchased from Waylaid Supply vendors after reaching Honored with the new faction, the Azeroth Commerce Authority/Durotar Supply and Logistics.

All characters must go to the crypt in Raven Hill, and pick up the Decrepit Phylactery. Leave the crypt and enter another one to the west to find a unique NPC called Slumbering Bones. Use the Phylactery on the NPC to summon an elite enemy that drops the Rune on defeat.

Human characters must defeat Kobold Geomancers

Undead characters must defeat Scarlet Warriors

All characters must collect ten books from several locations in Azeroth.

Both factions can find other books in the Barrens' Sludge Fen, just outside the entrance to the Deadmines, the portal to the Wailing Caverns, the Stonetalon Mountains, Amber Mill in Silverpine Forest, near the excavation site in the Wetlands, the northwestern elite Ogre area in Loch Modan, in Ratchet's engineering hub, and in the ruins found in central Darkshore

All characters just acquire the Naga Manuscript by killing Wrathtail Naga in Ashenvale, near the entrance to Blackfathom Deeps. Find three crystals, described in the Manuscript, and use Arcane Explosion near each one.

Purchased from Grizzby in the Ratchet Inn after completing a series of quests requiring several items – 24 Fish Oil, 20 Dark Iron Ordinance, and 16 Shredder Turbochargers. Players have at least 5 Gold to interact with Grizzby.

All characters must simply complete the Level 2 quest that introduces the Rune system to earn Ice Lance. Humans take on the Defias, Gnomes take on Troggs, Trolls take on the Burning Blade, and Undead take on the Scarlet Crusade in their starting zones.

Alliance characters must defeat Stonesplinter Seers until they drop the Rune, found in southwestern Loch Modan

Horde characters must head to Silverpine Isle and kill Rot Hide zombies to get the Talking Head. Use this item to start a three-part quest line that leads to the Rune.

The easiest, but most random, way to get the Hot Streak Rune is to kill Burning Exiles in the Arathi Highlands. There's a very small chance for these enemies to outright drop the Rune on death.

The guaranteed way to get this Rune is to head to the Alterac Mountains, and kill Syndicate Wizards just off the road leading to the Western Plaguelands. Follow the road until it twists through the mountains as it heads east, and kill Syndicate Wizards until one drops a Singed Note.

Then, get to the Blacksmith Forge in Stahndbrad (further down the road leading east to the Western Plaguelands) and look for two bellows on the building's exterior. Use any Fire-based spell on both of them to heat them, which should spawn a level 35 Ancient Fire Elemental. Kill this enemy to get the Rune.

To get the Spellfrost Bolt Rune, you must get Spell Notes: PELFRB STOLLOTS from Skullsplitter Mystics in Stranglethorn Vale. The best place to find this enemy is just outside of Zul'Gurub, though other Skullsplitter Mystics throughout the zone also have a chance to drop the item.

Spell Notes: Missile Barrage (and the Missile Barrage Rune) unlocks via the Phase Two Dark Rider questline. To begin, head to Ariden's Camp in Deadwind Pass at around (52, 34.5) in the zone. Talk to the Dalaran Agent at the camp to get Ariden's Sigil. He will ask you to recover seven Dalaran Relics from Dark Riders throughout Azeroth. Each of the Dark Riders is about as difficult as a Dungeon boss at 40, but because all classes have one Rune tied to the SoD Dark Rider, it's not too hard to get a five to ten-man group together.

The Dark Riders can be found in Duskwood, Deadwind Pass, Swamp of Sorrows, Badlands, The Barrens, Desolace, and the Arathi Highlands. After killing each one, head back to the Dalaran Agent and give him the recovered Dalaran Relics. After completing each quest (which reward about 1.5g at Level 40), the Agent will give you a bag containing the Rune.

Similarly to the Spellfrost Rune, to get the Frostfire Bolt Rune, you must get Spell Notes: TROFF IRESTBOL from Skullsplitter Mystics in Stranglethorn Vale. The best place to find this enemy is just outside of Zul'Gurub, though other Skullsplitter Mystics throughout the zone also have a chance to drop the item.

To get Spell Notes: Brain Freeze (and thus the Brain Freeze Rune), both factions must first head to the Swamp of Sorrows. On the road that forks south from the western entrance from Deadwind Pass, Mages will find a new NPC named Amaryllis Webb. Buy her Entomology Starter Kit for 50 silver, which contains a Guide and a Net, then head to three zones to capture three different creatures.

In Stranglethorn Vale , head to Lake Nazferiti and look for a stump at (45, 19). Use the Net on the Arbor Tarantula on the stump. It should look like a small orange spider.

The Spell Power Rune will take some time to get, as it requires players to read 20 out of the total 24 books in WoW SoD . Pick up the quest Greater Friend of the Library either in Stormwind or Undercity, and get reading. In addition to the base game's books, eight new books have been added to several Phase Two Zones, including Desolace, Dustwallow, Thousand Needles, Alterac, Arathi, Badlands, Stranglethorn, and Swamp of Sorrows. Consider downloading an addon to track your progress with this questline.

This total includes the books that you would have already read for the Icy Veins Rune, which helps cut down on time a fair bit.

To get the Chronostatic Preservation Rune, and the associated Spell Notes, you will need to combine three Partial Spell Notes found on burning enemies throughout Thousand Needles. You will need a group to complete this quest, as each burning enemy requires several Frost-type spells to be cast on it in a short amount of time.

The Scorched Roguefeather Harpy location is in the south of the zone at the base of the southern cliffs, directly south of the Great Lift as the crow flies.
