The best head-slot transmog can now be located once you know how to find Lord Godfrey’s Old Spectacles in World of Warcraft easily. It can only be found in one location - Gilneas. That means you must head down to the newly-opened zone - whether Horde or Alliance - and start fishing.

While it’s likely you can find it anywhere in the waters of Gilneas, there are a few spots where players have reportedly had luck finding Lord Godfrey’s Old Spectacles in World of Warcraft. You can find the coordinates below:

Personally, my fishing spot of choice was (50.75, 48.04). Unfortunately, there’s no confirmed number of casts you need to do into the water to get this item to drop. It will take some time - some players have gotten lucky and picked it up in 20 or so casts, while others, like myself, spent well over 100 tries.

I also recommend going into your hotkey settings and searching for “interact.” Make an interact key (I used “F”) so you can just tap a button once the bobber dips into the water. You do have to have your mouse hovering over the bobber, but it’s far less tedious that way.

What this means is that the only requirements on how to easily get Lord Godfrey’s Old Spectacles in World of Warcraft are to have the fishing skill and to be able to safely get to the Gilneas zone.


Reclaiming Gilneas is only one of the new content updates to come to the game in the Seeds of Renewal update. There’s so much to be excited about in WoW for the year 2024.
