About the Hunt for Illidan Expansion


Released in July of 2008, The Hunt for Illidan is the final in a sub-series of 3 wow tcg expansions following the storyline for The Burning Crusade. Introducing 252 cards to the wow trading card game, The Hunt for Illidan also introduced Demon Heroes, as well as more rewards for those "Loyal" heroes that weren't traitors from "Servants of the Betrayer". So, what would a wow tcg expansion be like without loot cards, right?

Well, we have all the juicy information of them right here in ascending order of rarity.

  • The Footsteps of Illidan
  • Disco Inferno!
  • Ethereal Plunderer

Another super-common loot card, The Footsteps of Illidan, is a twink friendly loot card that gives one of your lucky characters with The Path of Illidan. This item, while usable in any alternate forms (yes, druid friendly too!), allows the footsteps of your character to leave behind them tiny flickering flames of footprints as they walk about. This effect lasts for the duration of 5 minutes and the only thing that dispels it is dying…and of course right-clicking the buff. While it is a super-common loot card, you can still find it on Ebay for its "Buy It Now" price of around $3 or $6 USD. Since it is so cheap, it's no wonder why it hasn't been seen on the bidding side!

Disco Inferno, a fun, group use item, is the type that will have your friends asking to use your disco ball all the time! Except now, they won't accidently leave it plugged in and burn down your house. No, this fun little loot card gives one of your characters the D.I.S.C.O. item, which creates a small box with a disco ball with mirror effect. Upon right clicking, which is performable by either faction, the player gains the buff "Listening to Disco" and proceeds to /dance. This twink friendly item, should you want to shock and awe your friends, will run you near $40 to $50 USD using the "Buy It Now!" feature, and bids normally are around $20-$32 USD.

The Final loot card here happens to be the Ethereal Plunderer which awards any ONE of your characters with the Soul-Trader Beacon item, which counts as a NPC-Pet/Companion. The special thing about this "pet" is that it also acts as a very special vendor. The currency is, of course, Souls or Ethereal Credit, which can only be cashed in to the vendor. The unique feature of the Ethereal Trader is the items it sells. An item that allows you to detect invisibility, a npc-pet mutating item that will keep the pet mutated for as long as it follows its owner, Ethereal Liquor and a Ethereal Essence Sphere which acts like the Heavy Leather Ball items or their "play catch" brethren. The main items of interest are the gear items that it sells. With no statistical value other than the amount of bragging rights, this Ethereal happens to sell the clothing to make your character look surprisingly similar to this otherworldly companion. While this is the rarest card in The Hunt for Illidan, you can expect to pay around $300 USD or more, but with the bidding system, it's easier to find one that is somewhere around $200 and $300 USD.
