Welcome back to Know Your Lore, WoW.com’s column about the story behind the game we all play. A featured questline in Patch 3.3 , the story of Quel’delar is available to any player who attains the Battered Hilt , which can drop from any mob in the Icecrown Citadel 5-man dungeons. But what’s the story behind this ancient and powerful weapon? Long ago, the night elves and the five Dragonflights worked together with great ceremony to forge a set of incredibly powerful prismatic swords, intended to be the first line of defense against any evil that would challenge the races of Azeroth: Quel’serrar , the High Blade, and Quel’delar , the Sister Blade. Quel’serrar was gifted to the night elves, but ultimately nearly destroyed. For thousands of years it remained partially intact with the Shen’dralar of Eldre’thalas, who anticipated that one day it’d be possible to reforge the blade. Only recently did this occur, with heroes reforging the blade in the flames and black heart of Onyxia, broodmother of the Black Dragonflight. The blade’s triumphant return to its full glory brought great joy to the night elves, who thought the blade lost forever. Its sister blade, however, followed a different path. This writeup contains spoilers from the Quel’delar questline and should be avoided if you want to be surprised when Patch 3.3 launches.

Heres an article I found when surfing all about The Queue: Tooth explosion

Welcome back to The Queue , WoW.com’s (almost) daily Q&A column where the WoW.com team answers your questions about the World of Warcraft. Alex Ziebart will be your host today. Today’s edition of The Queue is gifted to you by my horrifying toothache that has kept me awake at ridiculous times of the day for the past week. You can thank the toothache for this article, because otherwise I may have done something healthy instead, such as sleep . Mordockk asked… “Is Quel’Delar going to be a Legendary weapon? If so, does that mean there is going to be two Legendary weapons next patch?” Continue reading The Queue: Tooth explosion Filed under: Analysis / Opinion , Battlegrounds , Arena , The Queue The Queue: Tooth explosion originally appeared on WoW.com on Thu, 05 Nov 2009 16:00:00 EST.

Here is a great article all about Patch 3.3 PTR: Behold Quel’Delar
Want to learn how to level incredible fast? Click here
If you remember back to our Quel’Delar post (I know it was a different world back then) here’s the sword itself, according to World of Raids . The sword definitely appears to bear a certain kinship to Quel’Serrar in terms of its appearance. We’ve also had reports in the comments that the Quel’Delar quest chain involves the Sunwell in some way – picking up where patch 2.4 left off, perhaps? The more we learn about this sword, the more interesting it becomes. Is it a trick of the Lich King? The famous Runeblade left behind by the Sunstrider dynasty? As of yet, all we have are tantalizing glimpses . I personally hope to get to see more soon .

Here is a great article all about Patch 3.3 PTR: Quel’Delar and the new Icecrown instance
Click here to View the Best Gold Guide
What, pray tell, is Quel’Delar? That’s a good question, and as of Patch 3.3, we’re about to become far more intimate with it. At present all we know about Quel’Delar is the area near the Argent Tournament called Quel’Delar’s Rest (as seen above), where a massive dragon skull seems impaled on a sword half buried in the ice. Speculation on the sword, the thing it is impaling, and whether or not we’d get to pull it out of the ice (as well as to links to Quel’Serrar/Quel’Zaram, famous swords with the Quel prefix meaning High in Thalassian/Darnassian) look to be on the verge of being solved. It seems that MMO-Champion has found a whole series of spells related to Quel’Delar and the new Icecrown instances in the latest PTR build. You apparently need to bring the blade into the Forge of Souls and temper it, then bring the tempered blade to someone , possibly Krasus , which then possibly phases you into a battle to cleanse an evil form of the sword . Please keep in mind this is all speculation based on spell descriptions, but at the very least we know that there’s more to that patch of barren ice near the Tournament than we’d been led to believe. It’s apparent from the descriptive text on this spell that Quel’Delar is deeply connected to Icecrown Citadel. Is Quel’Delar eventually going to be a player item? Is it connected to Quel’Serrar, as was speculated? Does it want to help or hinder the Lich King, or is it connected to some other denizen of Icecrown? We don’t know yet, but the time till we find out seems fast approaching.
