The '''Black Guard Swordsmith''' is a level 62 [[elite]] armored [[skeleton]] in the "[[Scourge]]" side of [[Stratholme]]. He does not appear normally in the instance but will appear when a player tries to pick up a parchment called "Blacksmithing Plans". The Swordsmith will appear and will try to kill the players.

The "Blacksmithing Plans" appear to the right of the stairs of the first [[ziggurat]]. [[Baroness Anastari]] appears at the top of that ziggurat. It's best to clear out any enemies in the area before trying to trigger the Swordsmith.
