Hunters: For those of you that want to learn how to kite General Drakkisath in UBRS, or plan on working on your Epic Bow / Quiver / Staff quest later on, Emberstrife is an excellent place to train. As a hunter, the General, as well as the quest involve being very skilled at kiting enemies. As such, you should brush up on your skills beforehand. Emberstrife's lair, and the surrounding swampland is a great place to train to learn how. You've got a variety of terrain to work with (raises, dips, water hazards, corners, jumps, dead-ends, etc) as well as a boss that will let you know VERY quickly if you made a mistake (he hits like a tank, at least before 2.0). In addition, it's not OVERLY populated in that region, though the mob is required for a couple of quests (on both factions). As such, you probably won't run into too many people who are looking to fight him, so you'll usually have him all to yourself, day or night. Just bear in mind though, that if someone else needs to do their quest(s) involving him, be courteous and let them do it, or even lend a hand. Remember, at the end of the day, it's the person behind the screen that your working with, not just the character. Be courteous, and you may find that the person you gave a hand to saves your skin. :)

This is the NPC that is needed to create the Seal of Ascension. Vaelan will give you the Forged Seal and a mind control item. It is important to set the seal before the fight. When Emberstrife gets to be about 10 percent, have the person forging the key try to use the orb to control Emberstrife. Simply move Emberstrife to face the Seal and have his use his breath on it.

Commento di 47148

Doing the Seal of Ascension quest is impossible to do on a level 70 mage. I keep accidentaly killing him by mistake, and his respawn time is SLOW AS HELL.

I'll try using my wand from like 25% to 10%, because 1 fireball at 25% kills him...

Commento di Caje

Lol, I did that with my 70 shaman.

I WF proc too many and boom 28%-dead. Sucked.

Commento di 30736

It may be worth noting for anyone having problems with casting the flame breath. If, when you mind control him, the icon is grayed out, then you need to kill him and wait for a respawn.

Chances are that the last person who used him for their seal, didnt finish him off and you can only use the ability once per spawn.

Hope this helps

Commento di Thottbot

depends on if you are horde or alliance. Horde require him for onyxia, Alliance require him for UBRS key.

Commento di Thottbot

Here's some things we learned trying to get the key.

If you are a HUNTER doing this, dismiss your pet... with a pet, you won't be able to use the orb.

Place your seal first... it only lasts for 5 minutes, so be prepared to place it again if you have to (I did).

Watch for the "Emberstrife's Will Falters" message. Should happen about 7-8% of her health - everyone should STOP attacking at this point. Right-click the orb... you'll then get her "controlled"... go stand by your seal on the ground and click the orange button (with a black shield) like stated earlier. This makes her breath fire and the seal changes to a "Forged Seal of Acsencion". At this point, wait for your MC to fade, kill her, then loot that seal. Or you can loot the seal which breaks the MC and kill her and then re-loot (since it interrupted with mine, heh).

If your seal vanishes BEFORE you get her to breath, you can place it again, which breaks the MC, then just re-MC her again. Hope that helps!

Commento di Thottbot

Soloed him as a Druid with ease (he can be hibernated)
Took some time tho. Unfortuneately, the drakes in Test of Skulls are immune to sleep :(

Commento di Thottbot

Ummm... we are doing the alliance UBRS key and got Emberstrife down, MCed and everything... but accordin got the person doing it, no abilities came up and he ran out of charges. Also according to him, the ring and the seal disappeared altogether...

Is there any way to fix this or am I gonna have to deal with some stupid GM who has no idea what they are doing?

Commento di Thottbot

easily done on your own if your a warlock,

cast fear Curse of shadow shadow bolt,do that for about 5 mins then place the seal in front of you as stated above use his spell
took no damage from him :)

Commento di Thottbot

Easier when you root/starfire when you're not spec into moonkin or have lots of mana. When it gets tough you can hibernate. First just clear outside the cave then go in and hibernate/starfire pull him outside then starfire/root. When hes 7% just root and drop unforged ascension and mc :P

Commento di Thottbot

I did this no problem as a 60 hunter with the help of a warrior and a priest. Just remember if you're a hunter or a warlock you have to have your pets dismissed before you will be able to mind control him.

Commento di Thottbot

Our Guild went to pay Emberstrife a visit yesterday evening.

1) We took him on his ledge and did not pull him into the water: no problems experienced with Mind Control.

2) I attempted it first but timed the MC wrong .. then died and the second member got his key made without Emberstrife recovering, so you can get more than one key forged in a single visit.

3) Emberstrife seems to be down to about 10% of his health before he told us that he was getting a headache ;). Thats noticably less than an 8th, so just wait for the message before attempting to MC him.

Commento di Thottbot

Soloable by frost mage.
He has 30K HP, 30.000/600=50 Frostbolts (without frost novas). You'll need superior/major mana potion or straight hands to keep him off while regenerating mana.

FB-FB-FB-Nova-FB-FB-FB-FB-FB-FB-Nova-FB-FB-FB...

Run around the pool and cliffs, use Ice Barriers (just in case; I wasn't hurt a bit). No need to kite him out of the cave.

On the will message (3K HP) I put the seal down, MCed on the first try, moved camera as close as first-person view, breathed on the seal, took the dragon up the cliff then finished him off.

The whole fun took about 3-4 mins or so.

Commento di Thottbot

Those of you needing to egt your UBRS key as a druid will have absolutely no problem soloing emberstrife. He's very easily slept, I never had a single resist unlike most dragonkin and even though it was a long fight you can just starfire, hibernate, rinse/repeat wear him down until the message appears.

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'ed Emberstrife as a Rogue for the Seal of Ascension. Hits around 700 on Leather, watch out for 1300-1400 crits.
He's not immune to anything, so keep him stunned as much as possible. Be sure to use crippling poison, so you can Gouge and kite him (regen energy and KS cooldown). When kiting him up and down you can easily use bandages without having to blind.
Watch your Bandage timer, as you will get hit and you will have to bandage yourself -> kite him as much as possible between stuns so the bandage timer wears off.
Funny fight if you like the challenge.

Commento di Thottbot

soloable with frost mage, since he is not immune to anything.

Commento di Thottbot

just tried doing double keys, cant do it, gotta kill and mc a new one

Commento di Thottbot

I killed him solo yesterday with a lvl 60 Druid, Balance spec, and 5 pieces of Wildheart set.
Just used one major healing potion, and one Major mana potion. One innervate and the fight lasted no longer than 15 minutes using the sleep, starfire.

By the way, although this dragon has very low magic resistance, he did resisted sleep once or twice, so be alert to spam sleep button in case he resisted the first attempt.

Commento di Thottbot

Just Arcane Rank 1, Serpent max rank, Multishot max rank, Cheetah and one mana pot.

Run circles around his cave and always keep him tagged, or he will evade when you use the Orb.

When he gets around 2000 HP, I think he moves a lot slower and you'll want to compensate. Drop the seal by clicking on it in your inventory and it will make a blue glowing thingy on the ground. Arcane, get a little more range and pop the mind control item. Maneuver him to where the seal lays on the ground and press his "pet" ability on the far left of the bar. You can now drop MC and kill him or feign. You'll have a "Use" icon on the ground to get your forged seal. Each item appears to have 5 charges. If you run out of charges on either, you have to destroy both items, ABANDON the quest and return to the quest giver. He will give you a new Unforged Seal and Draconic Orb.

Commento di Thottbot

coords?

Commento di Thottbot

When i get the Forged Seal Of Ascension, where do i end the quest?Is it Vaelan? If it is then its bugged for me.

Commento di Thottbot

This dragon hits for around 400-500 damage even as a level 70 warrior. I was well-geared and still only able to bring it down to 30% health.

Other classes could probably solo Emberstrife. However, if you're a warrior, bring a friend!

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'd as a 70 prot warrior. No resist gear, just alot of shield bash. No pots used either.

Commento di Thottbot

Solo'd as a lvl 61 lock.
Just feared and dot'd. It never even touched me.

Commento di Allakhazam

You can solo this as a mage, is hard and takes a long time, but it can be done. Just circle the plateu his at, when you jump it he will go all the way around, then use frost nova and if needed cone of cold (thats the dangerous part) and do not stop to damage use fire blast. I admit I didn't solo it, had a 60 pala to help, but he was dead 80% of the time, and really wasn't needed. (By the way this was in his level 61 form)

Commento di Allakhazam

I tried it as the previous druid suggested and kept dying in the cave until I realised that the DOT from my Moonfire was breaking the Hibernate everytime.

My suggestion for druids is Starfire & Hibernate and just stay in the cave. No risk of agroing adds, and just slowly walk Emberstrife around the room. Easy as pie, although it did take a good 20-25 minutes.

Remember to keep Faerie Fire up and it doesn't break Hibernate, so do it when you please. Innervated once, just cause I couldn't wait for my mana to regen, but easy if you are patient.

Commento di Allakhazam

He has 30k health, about double of those elite demons in winterspring.

He is ABOUT the same as them, because they both hit for 700 (ABOUT!).

An important thing to note is you must put NEAR him when he is under 20% health. When he gets between 6-10% health, use on him (you should see an emote first, if you are within range. If not, just guess and use it, should work.)

Now he is mind controlled (for 45 seconds to 1 minute) , you WILL see a pet action bar. Walk him to the , so that he is FACING towards it.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A DOWN OR ELSE!

Use the far left spell, I forget the name, but it looks like a and the mage spell combustion.

IF YOU FAIL, YOU ARE A @#%^TARD AND IT HAS A 3 HOUR COOLDOWN, NICE GOING DUMBASS. If not, nice job! pick it up.

good job, unless your a dumbass, then go kill yourself.

Edit: I did this as a 60 tauren balance druid. I started off using starfire + moonfire combo. When he got closer, I used Hibernate. Starfire again until he was out of the cave, at which point I entangling rooted. A chinese farmer was farming the dragons (no longer elite) so I didn't have to worry about those, but when 4 respawned, i killed them with ease, while Emberstrife was rooted.
The fight took 7 minutes to get him to 8% health, used innervate at the very beginning and towards the end.

Killed does NOT have a drop, but skins for a .

IMPORTANT: Unless you have are a hunter who's kiting, a druid who's rooting, or a warlock who's fearing (watch out, fear WILL aggro the little dragons), you WILL have an impossibly hard time doing this solo.

Commento di Allakhazam

can you kill him as an alliance with out the seals and orb

Commento di Allakhazam

Anyone doing the UBRS key quest I'll explain what to do against Emberstrife.
Take a party of 4 or 5 with a tank and healer. You'll need to take him down to 10% for his will to falter.
When his will falters you place the unforged seal of ascension on the ground then target Emberstrife and use the orb of draconic energy.
When you are in control of him you get 4 new buttons in the bottom left of your screen above your toolbar. You need to face the unforged seal and click on the 2 buttons that make him breath fire.
Then you right click on the forged seal and pick it up.

Commento di Allakhazam

i dont get it,how do high lvl dragons get in capital cities like org.,ive been playing for 7 months and i havent seen him!

Commento di Allakhazam

Solo'd easily as a 60 Druid... used hybernate and moonfire to get him out of cave then moonfire and entangling roots till his will faltered..threw down my unforged seal when his will faltered at 8% or so...used the draconic orb and charmed him..breathed flame of the black dragonflight on the unforged seal.. then finished him off and grabbed my forged seal. And Im feral spec'd so if I can do it any druid should be fine..had to Innervate once.

Can't solo him as a 70 warrior. I used all my cooldowns and a super healing potion. More proof that Warriors suck.

Commento di Allakhazam

soloed as a 70 tauren feral drdui finished him with fero bite and i was max health didnt use any health cept frenzied regeneration to be full hp lol otherwise i would finished to 10k hp quite easy

Commento di Allakhazam

Took him down in just a few minutes. Lvl 60 Frost mage with mostly tier 0 armor.

As RaistlinMajer said, you have to kite him in a circle throughout his cave. When you start, position yourself in the water just to the right of his platform. Make sure you can reach the bottom of his ramp with one of your Frostbolts, so you can keep hitting him as he's trying to get to you. Keep wailing away with rank 10 Frostbolt until he's fairly near but don't let him get close enough to hit you as he'll take you down pretty fast.

Then you're going to kite him in a clockwise direction around his cave. Use a lvl 1 frostbolt to keep him slow and to hold aggro while you kite him around in a big circle through his cave. Don't run for more than maybe 3-4 seconds before casting again. (Lvl 1 Frostbolt will likely not dmg him, it's just to keep him off you) When blink is up and/or when you're a decent distance, throw a couple of rank 10 Frostbolts on him. During the entire time you're kiting, watch his portrait to see if Frostbite has proc'ed, and if so immediately start casting lvl 10 Frostbolts until he breaks again. Then go back to kiting.

After you've made a complete circle and are back at his platform, go up it and Frost nova him in the spot where he started. (Again, you don't want to stand next to him for long) Then jump down to the spot you started attacking him in the first place and rinse and repeat from the top.

Doing it this way I had him down about 35-40% each lap around his cave. I did it twice (as I got so caught up with killing him the first time I forgot to forge the seal :-/ ) and on the 2nd time he hit me once the entire time and I only had to make 2 1/2 laps. (roughly 10 min fight)

Some tips...
- If he gets too close, don't panic, just frost nova, get some distance, and proceed with kiting.
- Bring bandages with you and make sure evo is up, in the event that the fight runs longer than expected. A major health/mana pot or two wouldn't hurt.
- Be generous with the lvl 1 Frost bolts if you want to be safe. They're 25 mana, which you'll regen before you cast the next one if you have Mage Armor on.
- If you're more daring (or just impatient), use Frost Nova when it's up, blink, and use your lvl 10 Frost bolts. Kite when he breaks free.

Good luck!

Gave me and my fiance a bit of a tif, for the Seal of ... quest.

Commento di Allakhazam

Duo'ed with a hunter friend of mine.

Basically have 1 hunter on the lower level in the water and the other where Emberstrife stays put when not aggroed. The strat is to trade hate by FD'ing and at 10% or lower mind control her to forge the seal. Easy stuff take 10 mins max.

Tip: No pets :D

Commento di EquineForm

One of the worst quests of all-time. I give up. I don't even want my UBRS key anymore because this quest sucks so bad.

Commento di Solivarnik

Soloable as a warlock, even without pet. Just dots and fear. Once he will be like 8% HP, you get a message, that he falters. Lef fear wear off and while he comes to attack you, dominate him with the orb.
