This Explorer Imp pet can be summoned alongside any of the Warlock&#8217;s other demon pets but it won&#8217;t do anything other than follow you so if you get into a fight it&#8217;ll just watch you and your current pet duke it out against your current enemy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-182232\" src=\"https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"675\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver.png 675w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-200x113.png 200w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-80x45.png 80w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-398x224.png 398w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-620x350.png 620w, https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/bw-sod-p3-fel-sliver-340x191.png 340w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 675px) 100vw, 675px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>How to collect loot with the Explorer Imp<\/h2>\n<p>While your new imp friend can collect loot, it can&#8217;t just pick up any loot: it&#8217;s looking for portals. Fel portals appear randomly throughout a handful of different zones in Azeroth. These portals have different names based on the zone but all of them seem to function the same way. These are the Fel portals you can find:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/npc=222228\/fel-sliver\">Fel Slivers<\/a>: The Barrens, Silverpine Forest, Westfall<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/npc=222696\/fel-crack\">Fel Cracks<\/a>: Ashenvale<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/npc=222697\/fel-tear\">Fel Tears<\/a>: Swamp of Sorrows, Desolace<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/npc=222698\/fel-scar\">Fel Scars<\/a>: Blasted Lands, Azshara, Feralas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>When you come across one, speak to your imp to send it through. It will disappear and you will gain the &#8220;Imp on a Mission&#8221; buff and you&#8217;ll be unable to summon your imp while it&#8217;s active. After a relatively short amount of real world time, the buff should disappear and you&#8217;ll be able to summon your imp again: it will give you an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/item=220446\/otherworldly-treasure\">Otherworldly Treasure<\/a> bag.<\/p>\n<p>These Otherworldly Treasure bags scale based on your level range but each bag has a chance to drop the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/item=221499\/rune-of-the-felguard\">Rune of the Felguard<\/a> for Warlocks. There&#8217;s also a chance that you can get different profession recipes, crafting materials, consumables, and various green and blue gear like the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowhead.com\/classic\/item=223215\/orah-raka\">Orah Raka<\/a> wand.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blizzardwatch.com\/tag\/season-of-discovery-runes\/\">Runes<\/a> aside, these treasure-seeking imps at best can give you gear upgrades and crafting materials and at worst stuff to sell at your nearest vendor, so it doesn&#8217;t hurt to toss your new demonic friend into every portal you see!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WoW Classic Season of Discovery has added a significant amount of new items in all the released phases so far, and surely we have a lot more to find but as of Phase 3 Warlocks specifically are in for a small treat, or rather, many small treats.
