Tips

  • The transformation lasts 30 minutes with a 30-minute cooldown, meaning you can remain transformed indefinitely by reusing the hat.

  • While transformed, only your weapons are visible — all other appearance elements are determined by the transformation.

  • The Faded Wizard Hat is flagged as a Quest Item, so take care not to accidentally delete it from your inventory.

  • Druid forms and similar class-based transformations will cancel the Faded Wizard Hat's effect.

  • See the video guide for a full walkthrough of the quest chain.
