Fight him in the corner and stay near the tanks as he has a nasty knockback that clears aggro. So if your MT looses aggro just run to the MT so he can possibly get the Prince off you before it kills someone.

Prince Tortheldrin has a whirlwind attack that hits pretty hard. 1,000 or so on "soft" players. It seems that he will use this attack to his advantage when more than one opponent is nearby.

He also occasionally uses an arcane blast on the tank that knocks him back and also resets the aggro. Having high arcane resistance on the tank will help to avoid this.

he's friendly until you kill immol'thar so you have to kill immol before you can kill him

Kommentar von notwithead

He puts out an impressive amount of Damage even on a 70, completely soloable but do not take him for granted

Kommentar von LoKHor

Very easy as a frost mage. Easier and faster than Immol'thar. Just get initial aggro with Water Elemental and then own him. ;)

is his green hat no longer avaliable? just killed him now and didn't get it...
or isn't it a guarantee?

Tried him with a group of 5x56, and couldn't take him down. In retrospect, we probably should have used Amplify Magic since he's melee only, but I'm still not sure if that would be enough. Our group is pretty well balanced but once he switched aggro to any of the squishies (priest/mage/warlock, in our case) they died really fast. Even having a second tank with the voidwalker wasn't enough.

We did get him down to ~20% on one of the tries, so a group with better gear/skill/luck might fare better and get him, but I'd really recommend being at least 57 before taking him, and expect to have to pull out all the stops.

He doesn't still drop the winter hat.

yay! the namesake of my server!

they should really make whatever your server is named off of drop something useless, yet cool.

This guy does pack quite a punch compared to the other push-over bosses. He's still easy but he was hitting me (80 Enh in blues) for 400-600 almost every second.

Kommentar von 167903

At aggro he yells

"Who dares disrupt the sanctity of Eldre'Thalas? Face me, cowards!"

He actually have a voice over for him. It's pretty terrible, but nifty at the same time, considering he's only some boss in an abandoned instance.

is there a way to get his blades?

I feel it worth noting that killing this guy does not damage your Shen'dralar rep, even though he's technically their leader. So if you're going for the Insane and also need the quests done that squish him, there's no conflict. The other Shen'dralar don't seem to care at all that you kill him right in their library, strangely.....

Kommentar von kberends1979

Has anyone in a more recent patch bothered to get beyond friendly (possibly even exalted with Shen'dralar?) and then tried bringing Nelfarian's head to this npc? I'm curious, because I know Blizzard loves to make insane easter egg requirements like this for things, and was notorious for doing so in Classic content.

I figure were the NPC to actually give up the location of "Ashbringer" upon presenting him Nelfarian's head, this would make sense as a pre-requisite requirement.

I may just have to test that on my level 80 pally tank. Besides now that recipe drops have been increased farming old world and bc factions to exalted that nobody else has will be a good way to make some extra cash for the random old-schooler affectionados like myself.

Hmm maybe Blizzard will someday finsih the Winterspring Hyjal & Uldum anyone? Some offshoot T9 full circle raiding content? One can only hope....

Kommentar von 585305

I feel it's worth noting that Prot Warriors with Warbringer are gonna find that kickback just as irritating as before. Maybe it was just bad luck, but any time I tried to Charge or Intercept, it said Immune and I didn't move. The cooldown was triggered, so it was used, but it seems he's somehow immune to Charge technics (unlike most bosses who are simply immune to the stun from it, meaning you still charge at them)

Again, I could be wrong! Just an observation.

Kommentar von marclar

Does anyone know of a way to copy his equipment? I wanna make my banker look like him :]

Kommentar von iffy

Since Dire Maul was reduced in level, a lot of people may be doing this boss for the first time. Despite playing since classic myself, I'd never actually finished this instance, and would've found this tip helpful.

Healers, his Counterspell is brutal, especially since "slow and mana-efficient" is the name of the game these days. Make an attempt to keep a HoT on the tank at all times, whenever possible. Instruct the tank to tank him in the corner, and stand as far back as you can. The Counterspell has a 30-yard range and lasts entirely too long, so if your tank is getting knocked all over the place and the boss is getting repositioned, you will get spell-locked, and he may very likely die while you stand there pounding your heal button, hoping that the urgency of your button presses will make it end faster...

NPC is wearing:
Verschlammte Stulpen
Brustschutz aus Silithidenknochenpanzer
Schiftung des Reisenden

The actual plate shoulders that match these pieces are Sumpfschulterstücke though.

for anyone who wishes to copy his outfit. Unfortunately there are no legs or boots like this available to players in the game. The closest match I have been able to find are:

Stiefel des Kolosses
Schienbeinschützer des Zerschmetterers

Kommentar von MABGamer6407

The achiv for killing all the lead boss's in Dire maul, He is not 1. In fact Its Immol'thar oddly. and hes fought before.

Kommentar von 432158

3 manned him today, 42 prot pala, 42 combat rogue, 43 arcane mage.

My tactics as tank/healer were to use devotion aura and seal of insight, and using only flash of light and word of glory to heal. When he interrupted me I had enough health/defence to survive the 15s, but I was close to dying at the end and popped lay on hands. At this stage he was at ~7k hp and we took him down easily.

Kommentar von ceasure

The cloak that he drops has a healing effect, does it stack with spell power?

Kommentar von AllBeefWiener

As of Patch 6.0 this boss is a god. He hits incredibly hard and does an AoE that can one shot melee. He can't be kited and he counterspells healers for 15 seconds, coupled with the fact that he can kill tanks in a matter of seconds, if your tank or healer aren't in heirlooms you're going to have an incredibly difficult time with him.

Kommentar von xRahXephoNx

for anyone soloing him while soloing dungeons for leveling as a caster or as someone who actually has abilities that can be interrupted know this:

his spell lock is not actually all that scary because he basically uses it in a "window" - hes not waiting for you to cast a spell with a cast time, as long as you cast instant spells he will wait for some time and then silence you anyway, so your best tactic would be to countdown his 30 sec cd and, once his silence is up, wait for him to use it, throwing instants at him.
After you hear a distinct sound of counterspell and/or see the little arcane thingy on yourself - you are free to cast whatever you want .

soloed him as lvl50 disc priest today using this approach.

Kommentar von Xella

While Tortheldrin doesn't turn hostile until you kill Immol'thar, you can still attack him when he's neutral. This means you can actually just skip straight to him and not bother with the conduits and whatnot if you're just going for transmog—the only boss in East that you need to mess with the conduits for is the big demon dog. You'll burn through your ten instances an hour pretty quick, obviously, but that's usually fine.

In Legion, Prince Tortheldrin is part of the questline to obtain the hidden artifact appearance for Ashbringer: Herz der Verderbnis. Speaking to him while holding Kopf von Nefarian and Ein vollständiges Exemplar von "Nat Pagles Handbuch für Extremangler" will yield the following dialog:

For 10,000 years I have ruled this kingdom. In that time, I have heard many fascinating tales from those that would walk the hallowed grounds of the House of Shen'dralar.

As I am bound to this place, I often exchange stories with visitors. Do you have a story for me or perhaps you would like to hear a story?

💬 Why not both, your highness? I will tell you the tale of the black drake Nefarian's fall, if you would tell me more about this book and the Ashbringer.

Ah, yes. I had heard of Nefarian's demise, but it is indeed a treat to see his grisly end firsthand. Were I not stuck in these halls I might pay his lair a visit.

Perhaps one day.

As for my end of our agreement, the tale of the Ashbringer is one of my favorites, of course.

<The Prince glances at your weapon and smiles.>

But it would seem you are familiar with that particular tale.

💬 What about this book? Can you tell me what it all means?

A human mage gave me a copy of that book many years ago. He kept trying to convince me to help him, going on about something to do with fighting fire with fire.

I cannot leave this place, as you know, so that was the last I saw of the strange fellow. He went off to reunite with his allies, I presume.

You are not the first to inquire about this book, however. I wonder...

💬 Who else sought you out?

He was a Tauren if I am not mistaken - and I am not often mistaken.

He came here with a copy of that very book, just as you have today, but had no proof of the black drake's death, and so my lips remained sealed. He was quite eager to learn about the Ashbringer's whereabouts.

Perhaps if you found him, he might be able to enlighten you further.

The Tauren in question is Bardu Scharfblick in Tirisfal Glades. You can see the full questline in this great comment.

I was luck to find both of Nat Pagle's books on the AH and I haven't been to Dire Maul in years, so here's for those who have no idea what they're doing (like me).

Dire Maul is broken up into three wings and each wing has its own instance. You want the west one (Capital Gardens).

Finding the West Entrance
Fly over the big colosseum on the world map and face north. If you look around, there are big archways in each of the directions. The west archway is to the west and has two golden statues on either side of it. Fly down to that archway and take either of the smaller doors to enter the instance. The map should say Dire Maul Capital Gardens.

Dire Maul (West) Capital Gardens.
Stay on the ground floor and head straight to Tendris Warpwood in the middle of the map. There's a closed doorway in the right corner of his area that takes you through a winding hall into the next area--IGNORE IMMOL'THAR. Take the hallway to your right. Prince Tortheldrin is under you, so go jump off the side and chat with him.

Kommentar von Vasiliski

random info for Statistic (and transmog) lovers
1. there is no pre-request to kill him
2. you can avoid killing anything but him
3. you can kill only him and run back to entrance in less than 3 minutes (destro warlock - demonic circle/burning rush, etc), others might take 4minutes
4. he always drops 2x items, they can be same

drops after 10X kills

Strangely enough when I killed him with an auto attack I did not receive credit for killing him and could therefore not complete the bonus objective.
