•  [The Elementium Axe]

Description

The Twilight cowards have captured and killed too many red dragons, but one yet lives. Do you remember Lirastrasza? She's shackled nearby and we're going to free her.

But first, we need something sharp enough to cut through her chains.

There's an old ettin named Blindeye the Guardian. He stands watch at the Altar of Ascension to the south.

He has a purely-wrought Elementium axe. I wonder if that's Cho'gall's "ultimate" weapon?

("Blindeye the Guardian: He has the Elementium Axe!")

Rewards

You will receive: 9 40 (or 16 54 at max level)

Progress

Do you have the axe? They're going to kill Lirastrasza soon.

Completion

That thing looks sharp. Sharp enough to the do deed, at least.

But if I'm a judge of weaponry, that's not what Cho'gall's after.

Notes

Pick up Distract Them for Me before heading out. First, head just to the southeast. In the center of a pit is Master Klem, a level 85 elite human warrior with 387k health. Aggro him, knock off 20% of his health and keep him still as Shaw will spawn 20 yards behind him and stealth up to him.

Master Klem yells: You've come for training. Good!

Master Mathias Shaw says: That was fun.

Shaw, once he gets in range, will stunlock and finish Klem off. Head to the southeast next. Justh south of Cannon's Inferno is a big twilight building with Mia the Rose inside. She is a level 85 elite night elf rogue with 387k health. Same as before, knock off at least 20% of her health before Shaw will spawn. Pop trinkets and fight defensively, she hits hard.

Mia the Rose yells: I knew you were coming. No one can resist me, not even you!

Master Mathias Shaw says: You're telegraphing your moves.

Blindeye is just to the west, at the Altar of Ascension, so take a slight detour and kill him. He is a level 85 ettin with 154k health.

Finally, keep heading southwest. In the shadow of the Twilight Altar is a small building just to the west of it. Inside is Dame Alys Finnsson, a level 85 elite worgen druid with 387k health. She fights in cat form.

Dame ALys Finnsson yells: We could have been civil about this, but no!
