Notes
- Originally, Elemental Flux was only used to make
[Enchanted Elementium Bar]s which were solely used in a quest to obtain
[Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker]. Despite its extremely limited usage, Elemental Flux was sold by all the game's blacksmith supplies vendors alongside
[Weak Flux] and
[Strong Flux]. Elemental Flux received another use in Cataclysm as a reagent for the
[Hardened Obsidium Bracers], though it is unknown why a peculiar ingredient like Elemental Flux would suddenly be used to craft a single, rather insignificant green-quality item. Elemental Flux received yet more attention in Battle for Azeroth when it became a common ingredient for many of that expansion's Blacksmithing items alongside
[Durable Flux]. The reason Elemental Flux is seemingly randomly used as an ingredient is unknown.
