This is the item needed to obtain Quel'Serrar (https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=18348). You get this book (either through long days in Dire Maul or the Auction House) and you return it to the library. The follow up to start the chain for the Quel'Serrar is found here https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=7508

Commentaire de 8903

This item is a random drop off any of the mobs in any of the Dire Mauls. Gives one of the best tank swords in the game, along with earning the best looking award.

"you could have gotten quite a lot of gold for this book on the black market, <name>. Especially since the protective seal has been broken, leaving the secrets of dragon slaying viewable to any with the requisite intellect to consume the knowledge held within the sacred pages."

A Warrior has knowledge to read a book then a Mage?
Paladins i can understand but....

Edit: Paste screwed up had to fix it.

Commentaire de 32907

The Book is about slaying dragons. Specifically the typical Knight in Shining Armor Tactics. AKA -Sword and Board Fighting Techniques. A mage might know where to aim a sword to slay the dragon, but they don't have the other required know how and practice to get a sword to hit that target.

Edit: As of Patch 3.2.2, this quest may or may not be still completable. Since Onyxia was updated, the quest chain may have been set so that you can no longer start it. However, I will leave the guide posted in the event that you are still able to start and complete the entire chain.

Since I was a bit confused on how to help my brother with this, I figure I will post a mini-guide here on how you go through the entire process.

First, you will need to pick up Foror's Compendium of Dragon Slaying. This can be obtained either through a very lucky drop inside Dire Maul, or off of the auction house. The above average price was about correct; my brother paid 200G for his copy.

After picking up the book, use it. It will start a quest called Foror's Compendium. In order to turn it in, you must go to Lorekeeper Lydros, located in the northern section of Dire Maul. However, unless you have the Crescent Key, you are not going to get very far. If you do not have the key, continue reading from here. Otherwise, skip the next two paragraphs.

In order to obtain the key, you must kill Pusillin, a boss in Dire Maul East. To fight him, go into Dire Maul East from the three-way split (Where you can access the entrances of all three wings). Upon entering the eastern wing, you should be set in the southeastern corner of a room where you can look down upon a grassy area. From here, head west along the path until hitting the wall, which you will then head north. There, you will find a friendly version of Pusillin.

Talk to him, and he will run away. Chase him down, and speak to him again. He will repeat this two more times until he is able to be fought. He will summon some adds during the fight, so be ready for them (They went down rather quick with my brother and I, so any form of AoE should suffice against them). Once he is down, he will drop the Crescent Key.

Now, head to the northern wing of Dire Maul. Once inside, head north into the grassy area where you will see a decent number of Gordok Mastiffs. On the western side of the grass is a ramp leading west. Head down it, and use the key to open the door. This will open a rather lengthy path to the library, where you can turn the quest in to Lorekeeper Lydros.

Upon turning the quest in, you should be given A Dull and Flat Elven Blade. Accept The Forging of Quel'Serrar from the blade, and turn that quest back in to Lorekeeper Lydros. He will now offer you the final quest of the chain in obtaining the Quel'Serrar.

The last quest, also named The Forging of Quel'Serrar, is the funnest in the chain. You must now go to Onyxia's Lair. This will require you to get a raid together to slay Onyxia.

After beating on Onyxia until she is around 20% of her health (A guide to fight her is located on her page), the Warrior or Paladin obtaining the Quel'Serrar is to drop the Unfired Ancient Blade between Onyxia and the main tank. It is required that Onyxia breathes fire on the sword that appears. Otherwise, you will need to abandon the quest, and pick it back up from Lorekeeper Lydros back in Dire Maul.

After Onyxia has been slain, and the sword has been breathed on, the Warrior or Paladin should then right-click the sword that appeared to receive the Treated Ancient Blade. They should then use the blade on Onyxia to complete the objective of the quest.

Following loot distribution, and whatever else you want to do, head back to the northern wing of Dire Maul. Go down into the grassy area, and down the ramp on the western side. Using the Crescent Key again, open the door and head to the library. Speak to Lorekeeper Lydros, and turn in the quest to receive your Quel'Serrar!

Now, for some tips and notes:

Be sure to wait for Onyxia to drop down to about 20% of her health before dropping the sword; you only have a total of 20 minutes to pick the sword up and use it on her before it will disappear
If you are having trouble getting people to go to Onyxia's Lair with you, let Death Knights know they are welcome to the raid. You can get a lot of DPS from the Death Knights, and they are just the right level upon leaving Ebon Hold to go help slay Onyxia.
Be sure to allot yourself enough time to complete the chain; it may take you well over two hours to complete it if you cannot get enough people to go kill Onyxia, or even get the Crescent Key if you are not able to run yourself through Dire Maul.

DOES count towards Loremaster of Kalimdor

Commentaire de Thottbot

and sneak down the ramp, along the wall to the left, where you will find a door and another down ramp leading into the library (Athenaeum). you will need the crescent key to get in.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Its a random Rare drop from Dire Maul. Guildee got it yesterday in DM west off a boss. it doesnt always drop off the boss its just random. doing the chain quest gets u the Quel'Serrar but also requires u to defeat onyxia

https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=35887/grèves-tachées-de-terre

Commentaire de Thottbot

it is .1% on most bosses. i have been farming for 1 month, abotu 300 dire maul runs, that is abotu 600-800 boss kills. i have never seen it drop.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Ony is actually very easy if u have tanks geared properly. oth MT and OT have to have 200 fire resist or more to whistand her breath.
If u get this book, and u need the sword, check for ony raiding guilds and talk with them, they might help u out and sneak u on their next ony raid. good luck, is an awesome sword

Commentaire de Thottbot

The atuneam is at north .
Find someone with the key and u could walk with no agro to there. first door left in the middle.

Commentaire de Thottbot

if ur tank dies instantly from Ony's breath, he/she is not a very good tank.... its called fire resistance

Commentaire de Thottbot

need to kill her again,just got the book.
btw she is kinda easy,whe downed her on our first run(2 try's tho)with almost no fire res gear!
fight take's not alot of time

rong char :s

Commentaire de Thottbot

We went up against Ony last night, and downed her in a close battle.

Around 10 percent, I went up and planted the blade into the ground near our MT. Before I could get away, I did die.

I watched the blade though and it did say Ancient Heated Blade.....then she died.

Before she was looted and skinned, I was raised. However, our entire guild couldn't find the sword, as it looked as if she basically fell on it.

So, we coulnd't find it so we looted and skinned. The body went away after the skinning and we still couldn't find it so I made a ticket and submitted it last night.

This morning blizzard emailed me and said to abandon quest and go get it again and do over. Big freaken help that is, that's exactly what I'd do if they didn't help at all. So basically I'm waiting at least another week for their screw up. The only thing I can think of is that since I died maybe that has something to do with it, even though the guys in my guild said that shouldn't have anything to do with it.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Your problem is that ony died before you got ress... the sword dissapear's if she dies and you dont stab her with it...
Not much Blizz can do with that... sorry pal...

Commentaire de Thottbot

when i talked with the guy in the library
i got a blade but this one is different
i think i have to go and chande the blade

Commentaire de Thottbot

the blade that the guy gave you is the blade that needs to get fired by onyxia's breath. just run into onyxia's lair, drop it in front of her at around 5%, then it will turn into the ancient heated blade. go pick up the anicent fired blade and turn it into the guy at DM. then you get your shiney new epic sword.

if you are not keyed for onyxia, that really sucks.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Thanks alot Zlander for giving the exactly information that I need. Thnaks to you other to as well.I really appreciate it =)

Commentaire de Thottbot

Guys, u don't actually have to take a breath from her u just leave it on the floor UNDER the MT at the time and when it gets fired, pick it up, u have to then do it in 20 mins, which is not too hard. when ony is dead, PUT IT IN HER CORPSE then it becomes treated and you bring it back and get Quel'serrar. Tada

Commentaire de Thottbot

Lords & Ladies:

There is a lot of whining above, but let me set the record straight. My guildmates and I have assisted in the forging of no less than half a dozen Quel Serrars in Onyxia's Lair. It is not all that hard if you know what to do.

After the first two phases of the Onyxia battle have passed, let your tank be absolutely confident that he has the great wyrm under control. Get her down to bout 5% so that you know that you've got this battle within reach. Plant the blade in front of Onyxia's face next to your tank, then quickly get the heck away from her.

(If the battle is going badly and you're not completely confident that you're going to win, KEEP THE BLADE in it's sheath. You can always try again after you wipe if you didn't put it down to be breathed on.)

Your tank (who should have sufficent Fire Resistance to sustain a GREAT MANY breaths, duh!) can give you a shout when the blades been breathed on.

Run over and pick up the blade. If you're concerned about getting killed, down a Fire Resistance potion before running over to Onyxia's face. Grab the blade and get the heck away from her.

At that point you've now got 20 minutes to take her from 5% to 0%. If you can't do that, well, maybe you should have sold the book to start with. :-P

Grab your blade and stick it in her corpse. Run back to Dire Maul and complete the quest.

If you've pulled it off, welcome to the elite ranks of Azeroth.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Guys, don't make this quest a "fable" and don't put it on a pedestal. It is totally doable!

First of all, it's not that hard to withstand the breath. At all! If you're in a guild doing Onyx runs, and are structured, someone will be able to make the Onyx cloak (Which makes you live through one deep breath without dieing.)

Having said that, ofc you do need alot of fire res, but honestly, if you think u can just join a random guild raid and swoop inside to get it, just forget it. Gear up on some dark iron plate items, chain shoulders, and plan it well. get ur sta up and fire res up. You can do it.

Good luck!

Commentaire de Thottbot

Ok, you get this book in DM, drops just like any other random book there, just alot less often. Take it to the library. They send you after Onyxia. Guess what, Ony's a cakewalk. My guild took her with 25 earlier this week. With a full 40 man, it takes 15 minutes to kill her from start to finish. By the time she breathes, she has 5 minutes left. So if you have your hearthstone, you can take the blade peice from her and get movin pretty dang quick. Enjoy the easy to get sword. Also, it gives experience because the exp. reward is how they calculate the 60 gold conversion for quests.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I got this a couple of weeks back randomly when I got off my ass to do my Paladin mount quest :P

I was like "hmmm... i'll hang onto this, badluck it's TBC now though"

My mate who is a pally tank in an SSC/TK guild said "Mitch this is an omen for you to also spec prot" lol. We'll see, we'll see :P

Commentaire de Thottbot

LoL, wow, even that guy's comment from almost a year ago made me itch.
I seriously...seriously....SERIOUSLY hope he/she was joking.

that droped the first run i did in dm

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I wish i had that damn book. Done over 450 DM runs(all instances) and never seen it droped.
Gonna eat %^&* and get lucky :P

Commentaire de Allakhazam

afaik you can go to DM an get another blade then. i suggest planting the blade near the MT at around 5-10% if everything is looking good. shouldn't be too much of a problem with an experienced group. afterwards, you pick up the sword and use it near onyxia in order to plunge it into her body. after that, go to the athenaeum in DM.

What is the rogue equivalent?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

When you get this book, you give it to a guy inside DM. Then he gives you a new quest called A dull and Flat Elven Blade. Later on, you have to go to Onyxia and wait for her to breathe fire on it. You have to put it in front of her before breathing fire. When she breathes fire, u have to kill her in 20 minutes. When she dies, u stick the blade in to her corpse and create the forged elven blade. Then immideately return to the guy in DM to get your Quel'Serrar.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I'm serious.

I've been doing DM runs for months, I've been there so many times the ogres all know my name
and they point and laugh as I walk by, but no drop.
nothing. nada.

Running MC in almost full Might now, but still a crappy old blue axe (Iceblade Hacker) to use for tanking.

The newer warriors in my guild, all still in blue and green gear somehow all seem to pick them up for cheap
or atleast affordable, and everytime I check AH they're up for more then 900 (which is way too much these days.)

Can you imagine me standing there in full Might epics, swinging my pathetic little axe,
while the rest of them have this huge green-glowing sword?
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy they managed to get their hands on it..
every warrior should get this. They're my guildies and go team!
But it just seems unfair.

Still.. I'm not giving up. I'm a warrior, and all you warriors understand this.
I shall have this thing one way or the other.. if I have to go and smash everything that stands in my way.

DM here I come... ...again.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

The book starts an Epic Quest for Wars & Pallys for the 1h sword Quel'Serrar. This epic sword nearly out damages most 2H Weapons including some high Epic 2H.

The Quest: The Forging of Quel'Serrar. After a few steps here and there. The last part is to have Onyxia breath on Sword (fire the sword). Then you have to kill her in 20min.

I plan on Dual Wielding Quel'Serrar with another Epic or rare. That will be SWEET! :)

Can someone post what needs to be done to complete this quest? I would really like to know what has to be done.
