Objectives

Matthias Lehner in the Court of Bones wants you to look for a Bloodstained Stone and complete the Prince's Destiny.

  • The Prince's Destiny

Description

Before the prince became a king, he fought many battles... but only one where he came close to dying.

It was fought right here. After you let me show you what happened, you'll understand everything.

Find a bloodstained stone and pick it up from the floor. You'll see what happened.

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards:
[Gloves of Tormented Recollection]
[Gloves of Troubled Memory]
[Leggings of the Turning Point]
[Bloodstained Helmet]

Progress

Did you see, <name>? Did you?

Completion

After that fight, the prince realized what was holding him back was that he was still human... he could still feel... he could still bleed. He still had a heart.

The first thing he did when he became king was to rid himself of it. He threw it down the pit where we first met. And you, <name>, were the first person to touch it since.

Notes

The duel

Look for the stone at [48.3, 72.8], just west of the quest giver.

When touching the stone the player becomes Arthas again with a different set of abilities. This time, it's a one on one with Illidan Stormrage; the same duel seen after the Warcraft III mission A Symphony of Frost and Flame.

Arthas has four abilities; #1 will make Arthas parry Illidan's next attack, giving him mana, as he starts with none. #2 will heroic strike for a mediocre amount of damage, #3 will knock Illidan back, giving Arthas the range he requires to use #4, a heroic leap attack that deals a substantial amount of damage to Illidan.

Parry until Arthas has enough mana to knock back and immediately follow up with heroic leap attack. Do that about 4 or 5 times to defeat Illidan and complete the quest.
