The recipe drops off of a few mobs in the Western Plaguelands.

Notes

This consumable is classified in-game as a Guardian Elixir and will not stack with other Guardian Elixirs or Flasks.
  • Gift of Arthas is named, not surprisingly, after Arthas Menethil, former prince of Lordaeron, now the Lich King.
  • Like the Gnomish Shrink Ray, very few mobs are immune to the effect of this item. Having a main tank chug one of these can help clear through trash mobs in raid dungeons.
  • This recipe no longer causes a disease to be put on the target, but rather a curse that does the exact same debuff. This is probably a consideration of the Death Knight class, who have a few abilities that are based on the number of active diseases they have on the target to deal more damage, such as Scourge Strike.
