The Frozen Flame

Obtain Felo'melorn from Lyandra Sunstrider in Icecrown Citadel.

• Mage Portal Taken
• Obtain Felo'melorn

It is time we make our move,. I can conjure a portal that will take you directly inside but it will take some time before I can make another and join you.

The Lich King will no doubt sense the magic of your arrival so you will need to move fast to locate Felo'melorn and secure it.

If Lyandra has the blade with her then I fear she may not relinquish it easily. Be prepared for anything,.

• 22600 XP (at level 100)

Felo'melorn... I can barely believe that such great power is locked within a blade as beautiful as this!

With this weapon in your hands, the Legion will surely fall!

Take Aethas's Portal to enter a special version of Valithria Dreamwalker's room in the Frostwing Halls of Icecrown Citadel.

The player spawns at the south end of the Frostwing Halls, and the entrance to the main room is guarded by a Frozen Necromancer skeletal mage with 129,000 health (at level 100) and two Frostblight Skeletons with 134,000 health each (also at level 100). Focus on the necromancer first, as the skeletons move slowly and only have a small area-of-effect attack (Razor's Edge), that deals damage in the area marked on the ground in front of them. Kite the skeletons around while killing the necromancer and then the skeletons.

In the main room are two patrolling Frostblight Skeletons and 13 Frost Blocks, that either when the player approaches too closely or run out of health (19,161 at level 100), releases the Frozen Geist (with 38,322 health at level 100) inside that has a stacking movement speed debuff. At the far end of the hall, the Iceborn Conjurer is channeling Chilling Winds in either the middle third or the outer two thirds of the room that will push the player backward. Stand on the edge of the wind field and side-step away when the conjurer changes portions.

Get within 30 yards of the Iceborn Conjurer lich to stop the channel and start the encounter. It has 382,000 health (at level 100) and frost mage abilities, like a Frost Nova with a cast time and Blizzard.

• The servants of the Lich King have conjured walls of ice to block your path. Destroy them.

Walk up to the first wall and destroy it. Upon entering the next room:

The next two rooms have constant falling ice blocks, much like the Pit of Saron gauntlet before Scourgelord Tyrannus. Steer clear of the Frost Blocks to avoid spawning more geists as well. Continue destroying Ice Walls. After destroying the third ice wall, enter the Spire and turn north, heading counterclockwise. Clear another necromancer and two skeletons, then two more geists and a Wretched Horror with 191,000 health each (at level 100). It only has basic melee and a slow-to-cast Hulking Kick that can be sidestepped.

Clear the last wall to enter the Crimson Hall and begin the next stage.

• Survive the assault of the burning dead.
• Defeat waves of enemies (3)

After destroying the fourth wall, Lyandra appears in front of a wall of flame in the far part of the hallway. Lyandra summons five Exploding Ghouls with 35,476 health each (at level 100). Spread a Living Bomb or three around (if so talented), wind up a Flamestrike, then use Dragon's Breath to hopefully finish one off and trigger explosions to kill the rest.

Lyandra summons two Burning Skeletons with 124,000 health (at level 100). They have a Burning Smash frontal cone attack that can be sidestepped.

• yell

She finally summons Charbone, a plague-dog with 177,000 health (at level 100), before running past the fiery barrier into the Crimson Hall. Take out Charbone to start the next stage.

• yell

Lyandra is standing with Felo'melorn in hand in the center of the Crimson Hall, with a pile of scattered bones behind her.

• Slay Lyandra Sunstrider.
• Slay Lyandra Sunstrider
• yell

Lyandra has 295,000 health (at level 100) and uses Fireball, Pyroblast (interruptible), and Phoenix Reborn, which deals damage in a 4 yard radius around a selected area.

Aggro:

• yell

At around 60%, Lyandra teleports backwards and becomes engulfed in a Wreath of Flames, making her immune to all physical and magical damage. She then immediately raises Gorewing the Awakened from the bones on the floor to attack the player. Gorewing is a bone wraith with 152,000 health (at level 100). Its main ability is a Bone Storm-like Flame Whirl. Try to stay out of the area of effect by using Scorch on the move, then planting and using bigger attacks. Right after Gorewing is summoned, however, Aethas Sunreaver teleports in to distract Lyandra.

Aethas then uses Spellbind to imprison Lyandra with arcane magic. Upon killing Gorewing, however, Aethas gets knocked back and stunned by Arcane Backlash, allowing Lyandra to once again attack the player.

Finish Lyandra off.

• Felo'melorn is yours. Take it.
• Take Felo'melorn.

Felo'melorn appears in the center of the room amidst a fiery explosion. Aethas has recovered from the backlash and walks over to stand next to the blade.
