Good luck getting to him in time after turning in the item. More than likely someone else will kill him before you can.

Kommentar von 41526

He has pretty good drops for 20 - 30.

1 hour ago he tried to kill Ysondre... hahahahahaha.

He works for Arthas Menethil the ruler of the scourge.

he is a slave to the Lich King.

we had problem killing the beast... he owned us for a while. i am looking forward to kill that beast again.

Hits much harder than most 35 elites.

Kommentar von DrCheis

Sometimes the quest does not properly cause Stitches to spawn.

Stitches is neutral (hostile only when attacked) as he runs to the road, then he becomes hostile and walks toward Darkshire.

I've found that there's almost always some high-level player who intercepts Stitches along the road and kills him, or some low-level player who continues to agro Stitches and run away, effectivly preventing Stitches from progressing along the road.

It's interesting to watch the chain of events unfold as Stitches smashes through the Night Watch positions, but it's very rare that he will reach Darkshire due to player intervention.

This guy is insanely hard. I was walking through Darkshire after getting off my Gryphon ride from Stormwind, when a guy in the middle of the town started screaming. A legion of about 4-6 lvl 20 NPCs went running down the road. I followed them, and, sure enough, here came Stitches lumbering down the road.

He charged the NPCs, and slowly killed them all off. He took out a Dwarf Hunter that was trying to get around him. A level 36 Warrior and a 37 Druid came running up, starting Melee'ing him, while I stood back and shot him with my gun. Soon a 20-ish Hunter came up, sent her pet after him, and then she started shooting at him. We eventually took him down, and that was the end of Stitches. It took us a good 3-5 minutes to kill him.

Mind you I'm a lvl 21 Rogue. :)

I didn't want to Melee him for fear of being killed.

Kommentar von Cross88

I remember getting all excited when the town crier began shouting about an incoming enemy. However, since Stitches is walking down the road it can take him forever to get all the way to Darkshire from where he reaches the road.

As stated before, it would be interesting to see what happens if no players jump into fight him.

Kommentar von 68685

This is my experience - if stitches is already spawned, don't finish the quest line for the bride of the embalmer (if you want stitches to spawn) because if he's already up, then he won't respawn properly.

Kommentar von 67437

lol..i did the quest but i never read the quest log for the story or anything.and i didnt know that spammed sitches..man i wanna kill him

Kommentar von 31055

Just took him down with a 33 rogue(tanking lol) 37 mage and 29 Holy priest (me)
I kept the rogue up until the end of the fight when i went oom the mage finished him off though he hit the 33 rogue for 200-300 so i had to keep dishing out heals as fast as possible.

Kommentar von 79373

Well,just soloed him with my lv 27 hunter!
LOL hunter rocks!
he's so slow speed,so it's so easy as a hunter to kite him.

Kommentar von 79373

Well,just soloed him with my lv 27 hunter!
LOL hunter rocks!I thinks hunter's the only class can do this alone.
Cause he's so slow speed,so it's so easy as a hunter to take his half heath by kite him from where he spawns and all the way to the town,then let the npc do the rest.
it's pretty a long way but it's fun though!!

Kommentar von 79373

took him down with my 27 hunter alone.
he's so slow,just kite all the way.

Kommentar von 78714

As a 56 lock it took me about 20 sec to kill him he has A LOT more health then ur average 35 elite and hits about twice as hard.

Kommentar von 103701

Hahaha I noticed stitches was close. He got to Watcher Jordan I started healing him just then another healer came. I was out of mana the other was at 50%. Then a 3rd healer showed up. Jordan ended up killing him "alone" was a 4-5 min fight :P

Kommentar von 59431

Once he gets to Darkshire he is greeted by level 65 guards. So if you aggro him and are lower than run as fast as you can to Darkshire.

Kommentar von 115548

Where is the Quest Giver for Gift of the Embalmer?

Kommentar von 131722

i am level 40 and was helping my friend in Duskwood and i got a shock as it came past so i started fighting it and it killed me badly lol :(. But i didnt stop i kept using entangling roots because im a druid and loads of level 25s were attacking it and in the end it died but got the femur. Took a while had soo much health lol

Kommentar von 53109

Hm...wonder what a raid of 25-40 level 24/25s could do VS Stitches...

Yet another easter egg:

Abercrombie creates Stitches.
Abercrombie & Stitches.
Abercrombie & Stitch.
Abercrombie & Fitch.

Kommentar von ChillingOut

Stitche's used to be one of the highlights of questing in Duskwood on the first few weeks of the release of WoW. He would be literally unstoppable because at that time there were only a handful of people above level 50.

Stitch's would basically walk down the pathway to Darkshire untouched, decimating the Night Watch in his way and when he reached Darkshire, there would be a large bunch of WoW players ready to die fighting him and protect Darkshire. Of course they would be overcome and Stitches would attack everything there (I even remember one time he was inside the Inn killing stuff). By the way this was before guards mass spawned once NPC's were attacked in towns, so he basically was free to kill anything.

It was such a good feeling knowing an abomination of the world was heading towards you, knowing he would be there in just a few moments and you were the last line to protect your town along with a few other brave adventurers.

Now you would be lucky if he even got the the town before getting 2 hit by a level 70 or even if he does reach the town, get beat down in a few seconds by a level 65 guard. It is a shame!

Soloed by a lvl 39 Twink hunter with almost no problem just 1 potion.

Kommentar von 156138

Better keep out of his way for now, me thinks being a lvl25 lock.

Thanks for the head up. Mind, I been playing Duskwood for a few days and not met his like yet. Met a lvl30 elite in Raven, we all ran. hehe.

Kommentar von 105431

Someone spawned him today and he made it all the way to the Midsummer Festival camp just outside Darkshire, where he was mobbed by around 10-12 level 26-30s. He got further than normal than when I spawn him.

Kommentar von 17534

I just killed him as a level 33 Affliction Warlock.

I killed Abercrombie's wife, took the heart and Stitches spawned. He was neutral till he got to the road. He attacked me when he turned hostile, I sent my VW in and dotted him up. Then he came for me, I CoEx'd him and just kept dotting/lifetapping. Used one healing potion and he died when he was about to enter Darkshire. Only got help from the NPCs at the camp in the middle of Duskwood.

Kommentar von Dirkster

I met Stitches today behind Abercombie's love shack. He wasn't hostile.
Although I remember him being that way, it could be my memory playing with me.

At least I think he should be hostile, I mean come on... he's a big ass mofo who chops up the innocent, don't make mobs like that neutral.

Kommentar von 193395

My friend a lvl 50 mage couldn't bring this guy down. What's his armor?

Kommentar von 201933

Just as he makes it into town, this 70 rouge runs over and kills him. Fun to watch. :)

Kommentar von barthem

i have killed this monstes on my warlock when i was lvl 42
i sended first my vw to it and spamed health tunnel, when he was full healed i DoTed him and used life tap when i was low on mana
it took me 7 min to take him down

Kommentar von Ruffy

Soloed this mob with my lvl 31 priest, just did Shadow word: Pain and Devouring plague and vampiric embrace and ran around with him =) good exp and fun =) not so much loot tho.

Kommentar von 311102

*Sigh*
He was just walking to Darkshire when 4 level 25 Night watchers attacked him, When he killed them all he was going to attack me, but the big lump got distracted by a lvl 35 mage. She was lucky she was mounted.
Anyway, when she went out of sight he ran to where he was and i started filming him on the way to Darkshire, once he got there watcher Jordan started attacking him and the the chief of the Night watch. I sent my pet in and when he died he fell on me.
:(

Kommentar von 123900

One of the first popular Live WoW videos was a group of (then) high level players pulling stitches to Goldshire, who just decimated the entire town. This was before things like leashes or "high level players" existed. There was a complaint thread on the official forums to which blue replied, "these types of encounters are intended and encouraged." My how things change!

Kommentar von 333756

When I grow up, I wanna look just like him. Oh wait... too late.

Kommentar von 342593

this may have been do to a glitch but one time when my mom was playing she walked OVER the embalmers grave(She was lvl 70) and no one was around doing the quest but suddenly someone yells in chat "Holy &*!@ were'd HE come from"?

Kommentar von 337614

I killed him today as a 40lvl draenei (arms) warrior with 50/50 green and blue items used a superior healing potion and gift of the naaru.He's not that tough.

Kommentar von Meggie

Aw. I remember him from the first months of WoW.

No more play :'(

Kommentar von 315859

He used to be so strong that even players around 50 had trouble taking him down. I had on my 'lock.

He's horribly nerfed now.

Kommentar von 380103

This is a Fun encounter. I'm playing a lvl 22 Hunter and while this Horror was patrolling the Road to Darkshire I decided It would be fun to see if I could kill him alone. I ended up kiting him to Darkshire and let the Guards kill him. This is very fun to do since often other players will help you. Dropped Stitches' Femur for me, Which will go right into my Bank for memory. Fun Fight. Suggest you try it out if he's up!
Good luck!

Kommentar von 266285

I remember doing this quest back in the day on my paladin. He practically ripped everything in his path to shreds.

Kommentar von 269661

Just soloed him as a level 26 warrior because he was bugging next to my quest giver... How?

Not guards, was up near abercrombie. I simply (accidentally) aggroed him, and noticing how hard he hit... ran away... and upon resetting and beginning to run back, despawned.

TADA!

*I see the future, where somebody will reply to this post saying /golfclap or the likes*

Kommentar von 186578

Stitches is unfortunately easy now. My friend and I kited him earlier this year to Stormwind with the intention of breaking the monotonous standing around and the guards simply attacked him and he died in a matter of seconds. Though if he didn't die by the guards the 80s would have dealt with him and if we kited him to Goldshire the guards would babysit the lowbies and deal with him quickly.

It's unfortunate that if we did this 3 years ago chaos would have erupted.

Kommentar von hordman

hahaha i wish that happened im anti alliance

Kommentar von ZobmieRules

I tryed it about an hour ago and failed (soloing)only me and the 4 npc's who get ownded in 3 hits

I tryed again with another friend who was in the area , he finaly summoned him and it was 32 priest (me) 37 hunter and a 25 warrior tryed to take him BUT all of a sudden a 33 belf pally pops up and trys to kill us D:, BUT (again) a 30 draenei palidin and a 29 human palidin come and duel him, the warrior and hunter are trying to take down Stitches while i heal EVERYONE, they kill the belf and come help dmg sitches but then the belf respawns (about 20 seconds later)! (At this point Stitches is at 8k hp) the 2 palies jump off and take down the belf again, while i was healing them the hunters pet died (was tanking stitches) and jumped onto the hunter, i was healing him and the palies were too busy killing the belf, i go oom! then a sickening THWACK *arrghghh* as the hunter falls, now Stitches is at 1300 hp! the warrior is still pounding away, Stitchy is on ME! i bubble and fade, now the palies jump onto the huge thing and land the finishing blows! the mighty guy falls as i rez the hunter.....we did it......we killed stitches.....i take my Femur (well deserved)...oh the belf? he spawned and was running down the path to stranglethorn vale on his horse.........

epic.......
anyone who HASNT killed him or doesnt want to do that huge quest chain.....do...it...
also if ur lvl like 46,make a new toon and lvl it up to around 33, u want it to be a fun challenge, not an easy kill not worth it kill.:) good luck everyone'!

Poor Stitches, downed by a bunch of palas (aren't we the protectors of light or whatever? :P) me a level 32 pala retri (tanking because i was the higher level) a lvl 24 holy pala healing, a 25 pala retri attacking, and a 26 prot pala attacking, I used lay on hands when the healer got out of mana, everything went good... then our common enemy ruins everything...a DK came by when it was at 3% hp and killed him! our glory moment *sniff*.

Kommentar von doku45

Lol yesterday me and my level 6 friend where walking around when we saw him. I was level 39 so i thought me and my pet Starving Mountain Lion could take him.... We attacked He killed leo, my pet..... Then i used the feigin death, he killed my level 6 buddy (his fault for attacking him to lol). I watched the Darkshire kill him, but now im level 40 and plan to kill him once im level 45 to 50. I WANT REVENGE!

Kommentar von 512207

I remember when Stitches attacked Darkshire. But Horde just killed all the NPCs and players that had PvP on. I didn't have Pvp on of course. But because of the lack of NPCs he was raving around for about 20min before the NPCs respawned and by that time about twenty Lvl 25s got killed.....Over and Over again! I just sat back and watched.

Kommentar von Magus2002

hmm, directly after getting the quest to get the embalmer's heart, I mounted straight for the grave and found Stitches still standing there right behind his hut, however, upon approaching the grave, he just randomly despawned and dissapeared :p guess I saved the day..?

Kommentar von Reihn

Stitches. Yes. Well, right now Stitches has a buy one get one half off deal on all core denim!

This is basically the fel reaver of Duskwood.

Kommentar von g4rgamel

Solo'd by 32 warlock (demonology specced)

Keep dots up, immolate, corruption and curse of agony, and heal your pet as much as possible (I used my voidwalker, doubt its doable with anything else at that level)

If you're feeling safe you can throw in a shadowbolt or two, but I recommend saving the mana for drain life as you'll lose life when healing your pet.

Fight took about 4-5 minutes, 707 exp given at kill, the offhand and the proudness of soloing 12,2k hp!

edit: (He hits for about 100-200 ish, crits for almost 400)

Kommentar von Ixias

My 31 retri pally in BoA gear got a little too confident and tried to kill Stitches earlier today.
After about 8 seconds, I bubbled and ran like a little girl.

Kommentar von 574388

Surprised no one else ever noticed this but he seems to yell out "DARKSHIRE... I HUNGER!". Not exactly sure when he does, but he did it for me as I was about to run into him on the road. I imagine this could be a reference to Sinistar, famous for such things as "Beware, I live!", "Beware, I hunger!" and "Run, coward!"

Kommentar von TastyBrush

Fought him some days ago as a lvl 31 mage. First I tried where the pack of guard stands, simply by frost noving him so he would attack guards instead. went pretty well until all guards had died :P
next try was in Darkshire, Watcher Jordan helps alot more being lvl 39 rather than 20 like the pack before. But I got to high threat after 2 frost novas (cold snapped) so I runned inside Darkshire where the lvl 65 guards took him down like fire melts butter, but suprised enough I got the loot :D
Still got my femur as memory :)

Kommentar von Ethlin

I remember this one time a friend spawned Stitches, and I got on my troll shaman and wind shear kited him to Sentinel Hill. Unlike Darkshire, the highest Sentinel Hill guards are level 40, which I quickly disposed of on my Horde. And since I was kiting with wind shear, I had basically no aggro on him, so anything that attacked him (aka levels 10-20) got aggro on him.

He tore Sentinel Hill apart.

Kommentar von Ethlin

What if this guy took the day off, and Patchwerk replaced him?

Darkshire! I ...err... Patchwerk want to play!

Kommentar von 625927

Ethlin, lol

I wounder what would happen if some horde killed the lv 65 npc at darksheir (and the flight path dude)' would stitches move on or just wait in the same area?

Also, is there any other NPC's which are like stitches? (So they walk around reigon like stitches and/or go to towns and stuff like that)

Kommentar von 104789

Is this guy impossible to kite, now? :\ Whenever I try he just abruptly despawns after a while, even if I'm still smacking him. As in, literally disappears, not just runs back to where I originally aggroed him. Though, he does respawn in that spot. It's weird.

Kommentar von Neverknow

Ebonlocke cheats.

...Seriously, spawning a wave of guards? How cliché.

Kommentar von Aimsyr

Poor Ol' Stitches, why does everyone blame him for butchering over half of Darkshire?
I mean seriously, it was all in self defence. They struck first!
All this poor cuddly abomination aspired to be was a nice gift for the mayor...

Blah Stiches cant rampage anymore :( Level 65 guard in Darkshire made mincemeat out of him.

Kommentar von johannhowitzer

Just defeated Stitches SOLO as level 31 mage, these were my talents: http://www.wowhead.com/talent#oZZAcMhoou:ZV

Kited him about halfway from the "T" intersection in the middle of the zone, and Darkshire. As often as possible, poked him with Frostbolt, Frost Nova, sometimes Fire Blast if I had to. Two uses of Evocation plus mana gem, wanded when oom but my wand did not often connect.

So for those who wonder if it can be done, YES, you can do it, but it will be very risky. I ended with 30 health. As a mage, you really need to know the exact range of your Frost Nova!

I did not plan my talents ahead for this fight, but likely these talents are most important:
Precision - reduces chance he'll reset, plus safety
Permafrost and Improved Frostbolt - makes it safer to reapply the chill
Arctic Reach - give you more breathing space on Frost Nova

Kommentar von 665802

I soloed it on my 30 hunter, pretty easy, runned all the way from the camp at the road to STV, to darkshire with aspect of the cheetah on, i had dealt around 1k dmg to it when i reached darkshire, then the guards just did the rest for me, and i got the loot

Kommentar von StaticLgtBrngr

As of Cataclysm Abercrombie (the quest starter) has now moved to the tower at Beggars Haunt and he sends you out to gather materials like before, though the end quest to kill Eliza has been removed and you now have a quest to kill Stitches (which is a phased event) in its place where you get a choice of 3 blues on completion.

During the event Darkshire is burning and under attack by Stitches with Abercrombie riding on his shoulder directing him to attack (screenshot submitted) though he is now a 23 elite down from 35 and now has 3k health, down from 10, so he should be an easy solo for anyone high enough level to do the prequests.

Kommentar von Mother

My husband just took him out solo as a Level 27 mage with arcane spec. He let the guards tank and he sat back and spammed arcane blast and arcane missels. He got the femure, the new mage for cat is badass!

Kommentar von regma

Oh what "fun" times when I first played WoW (back during LK). I didnt know bout him and tried to avoid him/it only to get one shotted. Course it was funny watching a horde trying to take it on as well only to also met the same fate.

Ah the "good" times. :)

Unfortunately, this version of Stitches was removed when the Cataclysm pre-patch dropped. This effectively renders Stitches' Femur - a hip-sheathed transmoggable offhand, unobtainable.

The present day version of this mob is Stitches, who exists only in the scenario at the end of Duskwood's A Hermit's Errand questline during the quest The Embalmer's Revenge. this new version has no notable loot to speak of.
