Arthas' old hammer

Commentaire de MikauSchekzen

It stacks in lots of 10. Heheh...

Commentaire de Blackriver

The first epic quest item since Classic and also the first epic item that has no direct function since Classic.

Commentaire de haxasarus

Well now we know why Arthas ditched his hammer for Frostmorune. No stats at all. He must've pulled terrible DPS.

Any-dang-way...

Basically, when you go in the Frostmourne Cave to grab this as part of the Shadowmourne chain, the Lich King shows up and taunts you that you really thought it would be that easy, fills the cave (seriously, theres TONNES of them packed in) with weak zombies (not CoS weak, but weaker than basic NR mobs) and a shielded, elite Vrykul in the middle who will resummon any dead zombies. Light's Vengeance will be thrown to the side, and it takes 8 seconds to loot it - WITHOUT BEING HIT. Use whatever tricks you can - bubble, AotD, whatever, to keep the zombies away from you while you loot it. After this, it flys up in a big bubble of light and flys around the room, spitting balls of light to smash the zombies, before finally nuking the Vrykul and dropping down. Now loot it and claim your prize!...

Or not. 10 seconds ago was merely a setback, and the Vrykul comes back as an elite skeleton! Hes not really all that tough to be honest, if you're in the position to get this weapon you can kill him - just don't pick up that hammer with 100hp left or you'll scream! After this, there is FINALLY nothing left and you can claim your prize :D

ok so my question leads like this... will this be a questitem like every other quest items?
only those who have the quest will see/be able to loot this?
If not i will see alot of raid leaders help thire guilides over pugs etc.
If only the questholder with the current quest can see these items then its "easy peasy japaneeasy"

Commentaire de Killallofu

I just soloed this quest on my dk. It is very easy to do, I just ran in popped army gathered up all of the ghouls laid a Death and Decay on the ground and all of the ghouls died fairly quickly. The zombies attacking you have about 3000 health. When you click on the hammer it will fly up into the air and kill all of the zombies summoned by the Lich King. After that is done you click the hammer one more time and it punts you backwards, you have to fight an elite zombie who has 136k health but hits about 214 on my character who has about 15k armor. After you kill the mini boss you can loot the hammer and you are done. The only thing left is to wait for blizzard to unlock the rest of ICC and get 25 Primordial Saronite......sounds fun.

Commentaire de SirusStarseeker

They should have really given Arthas' hammer stats and such so you can equip it till you get Shadow's Edge.

After obtaining Friendly status with The Ashen Verdict, Darion Mograine inside Ice Crown Citadel instance near the entrance will have a quest available to you: The Sacred and the Corrupt.

To obtain the first item of the quest: Light's Vengeance

1. Fly to 74, 23 Dragonblight.

2. As you walk in and near Arthas' hammer, you will be Chain of Iced and the Lich King will appear, giving a speech while throwing his hammer to the side of the cave.

3. End of his speech he will summon a large number of weak ghouls. Not all of them will aggro unless you get close.

4. Make your way towards the hammer while killing the ghouls.

5. When you have clicked the hammer a bright floating ball appears which flies across the cave killing all ghouls.

6. The ball lands where the hammer was the first time and the hammer reappears.

7. Click it and you will be stunned and punted a few yards.

8. An elite zombie rises.

9. After killing it. Loot the quest item.

Doing this as a DK without using any cooldowns, i was at 75% after the ghouls died and 40% after killing the elite.

Commentaire de Firedwarf

Every warrior should be able to do this if they have a prot spec and some tanking gear

Commentaire de 43311

As a paladin, I'd rather have the choice to use this than Shadowmourne D:

Commentaire de DominoEffect

The mobs must've gotten nerfed in the past few days, then. I just did this as a fury warrior, and the mobs had ~3400 health, the item itself only took about half a second to activate, and the elite mob only had ~130k health.

Commentaire de 475004

WOW lol! i got down to 235 hp wen i killed the elite, im a blood dk who alredy used his ghoul to death pact some health and i almost needed to get a new pair of pants.

Commentaire de LcsRaw

The Battle was really laggy by me =/ first time i failed, but second try i succeded ^^ as Protection Pala it isnt really a hard fight it just takes some time so be patient and dont rush ;)

*Edit my hp was around 12-16k all the time with Seal of Light on, and mana regain from BoS :)

Commentaire de thealmighty

solo'd by a geared fury warrior...wasn't the easiest of things i've solo'd. popped a helath potion and enraged regeneration, killed the guy with about 1k HP left over.

Commentaire de lazorhearth

Just soloed this on my prot pala with one hand busy munching on chips.....not hard just make sure you have all your cooldowns ready, you'll need them.

Commentaire de 18754

Although this should be soloable, if you have trouble with it you cannot rely on any party member or random to help you out with it UNLESS they are

a) also on the quest
b) do not already have the hammer in their inventory/bank

If they are not on the quest then they will be phased differently and cannot aid you.

Commentaire de 532612

All that you've Written here is pretty and nice but where can i found it XD?

Commentaire de luio2revenge

He planed to take on Mal'Ganis and a freaking endless horde of zombie's with THIS? nodoubt why he chosed to look for frostmoore... And Light's "Vengeance" does explain ALOT of his personallity, huh?

Commentaire de crazyfaller

isnt it the same cave ware he got Frostmourne

Commentaire de mrs1996

i cant find it eny wer . >.< its hard ti find it omg

Commentaire de DragynGrizHills

Soloed as ret pally.
Use sacred shield and bash him when u get art of war use flash of light hope for crit and continue with that

Commentaire de castellan

Ha, how do u guys know Arthas didn't have to do the quest himself to get Frostmourne?

Commentaire de 126811

it no longer takes 8 sec to pick it up, i just head to the spot where hammer landed, pop up my army of the dead when i got there, loot it in less than 2 sec, killed the elite in less then 1 min, thats all.
another advice, dont bother to kill the ghouls, the elite will revive them, just go where the hammer is and try to right click it if you dont have an ability like army of the dead.
good luck

Commentaire de 476703

That would be awesome (And more correct lore-wise)

EDIT: This was supposed to reply to Magaso's comment

Commentaire de Calexa

Just a heads up - this item will disappear from your inventory over time. I picked it up after initially getting the quest. Went to get it from my bank pre-raid last night and poof - gone. So, unless you feel like doing it twice (admittedly, it's a very cool encounter, so I really didn't mind), you may want to hold off until you're ready to actually complete the quest after acquiring the other quest items.

First time I did it as a Prot Warrior and as the above posters have mentioned, it was cake. Last night did it in a rush as Fury... not so cake, but doable using frenzied regeneration or a health pot if necessary in the mob of zombies.

As an aside, for anyone with health issues after initially clicking it and polishing off the remaining zombies you CAN eat without interruption before clicking on it the second time to engage the elite.

Commentaire de hampusdif

hammer of grief would be a better model ^^

Commentaire de rosa08

I can only imagine the arguments on RP realms as to who used the "real" Light's Vengeance to make their Shadow's Edge. "You sir are a liar and a fraud! I am the mighty soldier who acquired the discarded hammer" then me "STFU noob".

Commentaire de luxxar

Looks like Grand Marshal's Battle Hammer

Commentaire de sean2358

sounds like any plate wearer who can clear enough of icc to get friendly should be able to one shot this (even if they have to resort to pots/cds, or getting fully raidbuffed) what i don't get though is why blizzard doesn't add a support quest to un-phase classes that can't pick the quest up so we can carry our noob friends / ppl who spam in trade to make a few g. if someone wants to buy their way to shadowmourne let them imo.

Commentaire de 714671

I SWARE IF THE LEADERS OF THE HORDE AND ALLIANCE WHO ARE LIKE UNKNOWN ELITES TEAM UP TOGETHER THEY COULD WIPE THE WHOLE PLACE WITH TIRRION AND DARION BUT NO THE LEADERS HAVE TO STAND BACK AND STAY ~~ALIVE~~.

Commentaire de MiltiadesBooga

Funny name on this thing; vengeance is against the principles of the Light, which we're told often, and yet...

Commentaire de Rico77

the quest will lead you to the place where you can find the hammer you need for the quest

^^

Commentaire de Sundridge

So Prince Arthas left this on a cave and it is lying on the floor for all these years, fighting against the harsh weathers of Northrend and it is still not even buried to the snow.. Do not underestimate

Commentaire de Aeliren85

So, can someone explain to me how we make an axe out of a hammer?

Commentaire de Faell

I can confirm that there is a currently a bug that will sometimes cause the Light's Vengeance to not spawn when you enter the cave. There are multiple reports of this on the bug forum. It is likely something to do with CRZ.

There are two possible work-arounds:
1) Visit the cave right after server maintenance / restart.
2) While standing inside the cave, have a friend invite you to a different server so that you phase into their server.

I used method number 2 to successfully get my Light’s Vengeance.

Commentaire de zedoox

I've boosted my character and i've forgot the chain quests to this hammer, please can anyone link me the chain quests? thank you.

Commentaire de Zashule

As of 6.0.2 this item had disappeared from my bags. After panicking for a bit, I learned that it is now one of those quest items that no longer take up bag space. So even though it disappeared from my bank I was still able to turn in the quest with the other materials.

Commentaire de eyekahn

Most sadly, at this point, when you walk into the cave the items formerly present are now not there to trigger this event from happening. This means the Crimson Deathcharger is no longer obtainable.

One last stab at making us sad, sad heroes, Arthas. Well played.

Wanted to let folks know before thy flew out there as it's not readily apparent on all items that might lead folks on a wild hunt.

Commentaire de slemdorull

If the quest bugs (no quest item and the dude summoning ghoals in the cave), try swap realm using cross realm assist or join any random group in dungeon finder tool. Enjoy! :)

Commentaire de myrddinwylt

Here is a map for this location.

http://i.imgur.com/hkbnou1.png

When flying there, there is an entrance that is in the side of the mountain (a cave). It is also a phased area once inside the cave.

Commentaire de Mikhala99

As of Shadowlands (probably BFA also) you need to be in War Mode to see the hammer in the cave to pick up the quest item.

So yes, schlep your backside back to your capital city before even heading to the cave.

Commentaire de Ravencloud999

I encountered the bug where the event didn't spawn upon entering the cave. Going back to Stormwind and turning on WM fixed it though!

Commentaire de Dreycraft

I just completed the mini-event for Light's Vengeance with absolutely no problems without War Mode on, I entered the cave and saw the hammer sitting there glowing very brightly and the event immediately triggered. It looks like Blizzard actually fixed a bug related to content that is 12 years old, I'm blown away by that.

Commentaire de Alkaholic1

Completed on March 4th, 2022.
No issues whatsoever Blizzard must have fixed the issues.

Commentaire de Kexmon

The quest marker is correct. There's a cave, just south of the marker. Go inside, wait, run to hammer and click it, wait, click hammer, wait, kill mob, click hammer, wait.
