- How To Get The Band of Radiant Echoes WoW Heirloom
The The War Within prepatch event for World of Warcraft is finally here, and players have been scrambling to take advantage of recently-buffed Residual Memories rewards to get all the Radiant Echoes event rewards they can. Among the many new things you can buy with Residual Memories in the Radiant Echoes event is an unassuming, low-cost item called the Lifeless Stone Ring.
But this Ring is much more than just a White (Common) inventory filler – if you can infuse it with three Essences, it turns into the game's newest Heirloom Ring, one that covers stats not yet covered by other Heirloom Rings before the launch of WoW: The War Within pre-patch. This guide explains how to get this new TWW Heirloom Ring, called the Band of Radiant Echoes, and briefly details its effects and stats.

The Band of Radiant Echoes is a new WoW Heirloom Ring in The War Within Pre-Patch that can only be acquired by participating in its namesake event – the Radiant Echoes prepatch event. As an Heirloom Ring, you will be able to give this to any character on your account by going into your Heirloom Collections tab of the Warband Collections menu.
It gives bonuses to Stamina, Haste, and Mastery, but while leveling your stats really don't matter all too much. The set bonuses for Heirloom gear apply to this new TWW Heirloom Ring, too, including its Rested XP reductions, resource generation boosts, and the Burst of Knowledge effect. It's going to be useful for players who want to level up new characters before The War Within launches, but to get it, you have to do a fair bit of work in the new prepatch event.
How To Get The Band of Radiant Echoes WoW Heirloom
To get the Band of Radiant Echoes, you need four things: the Lifeless Stone Ring, and the Essences of Kalimdor, the Eastern Kingdom, and Northrend. To get these items, you will need to complete events and defeat bosses within the Radiant Echoes prepatch event. Start this event at max level by heading to Dalaran after completing the Harbinger questline, which reintroduces players to Xal'atath.
- The Lifeless Stone Ring can be purchased from any event vendor in any of the three Radiant Echoes zones for 25 Residual Memories, the primary currency of the Radiant Echoes pre-patch event.
- To get the Essence of Kalimdor, you must combine 20x Memory of Kalimdor.
- Earn 1x Memory of Kalimdor by completing (or helping complete) events in Dustwallow Marsh when the zone is active.
- You will earn 5x Memory of Kalimdor by defeating the Remembered Onyxia boss.
- To get the Essence of The Eastern Kingdoms, you must combine 20x Memory of The Eastern Kingdoms.
- Earn 1x Memory of The Eastern Kingdoms for completing (or helping complete) events in the Searing Gorge when the zone is active.
- You will earn 5x Memory of The Eastern Kingdoms by defeating the Remembered Ragnaros boss.
- To get the Essence of Northrend, you must combine 20x Memory of Northrend.
- Earn 1x Memory of Northrend for completing (or helping complete) events in Dragonblight when the zone is active.
- You will earn 5x Memory of Northrend by defeating the Remembered Lich King.
You will only receive a Memory in the active Radiant Echoes zone if you participate in an event when it completes. You cannot just be inside the bounds of the quest, you have to interact with the quest objective in some way to gain credit – whether that means kissing one frog, releasing one Tadpole, or tagging Ragnaros when he's on 1% HP, you must participate to earn a Memory for each sub-event in the Radiant Echoes event.
Once you have collected 20x of each Memory, right-click the stacks in your inventory to create the respective Essences. When you have all three Essences and the Lifeless Stone Ring in your inventory, right-click on the Lifeless Stone Ring to combine it with the three Essences and create the Band of Radiant Echoes!
Once created, you will receive a copy of the new The War Within Heirloom in your inventory, and it will also automatically be added to your Heirloom Collections tab. If you are already at max level, feel free to delete the copy in your inventory without fear of losing this item.
