Mor'Ladim

Kill Mor'Ladim, then return his skull to Commander Althea Ebonlocke in Darkshire.
Mor'Ladim's Skull

Description

From what my scouts tell me, Mor'Ladim wanders throughout Duskwood, following a strange and meandering path through the cemetery. We buried him out past the house on the hill, you know where that is?

There isn't anything I can do to help you, but I wish you good luck.

I was able to solo Mor'Ladim as a level 33 shadow priest, without using potions or anything special. Well, I used the Draenei racial symbol of hope, but after you read what I did, you will find that any priest is capable of soloing Mor'Ladim.

The basic strategy for a priest is to "shackle-kite" him. You want to open with a direct damage spell like mind blast or smite. Or, I suppose if you like, you could also try mind flay. Then once Mor'Ladim starts chasing you, shackle him. Get a little range, wait for some mana to regenerate, then re-open with another direct damage spell.

A few things to note: If you constantly damage and shackle, you will probably run out of mana. So, you really want to wait for mana to regenerate during the shackle. Also, it might take you a little while to wear Mor'Ladim down with this strategy. But ultimately, you will able to solo him. If you have 5 talent points in shadow-weaving, you might be better off using mind blast so that the shadow vulnerability debuff stacks on Mor'Ladim. It's helpful, but not necessary. Also, since you are using shackle, I hope it is obvious that you don't want to do something like, Shadow Word: Pain Mor'Ladim. It will break the shackle for the duration.

There is also a little court yard in Raven Hill Cemetary, which features a broken statue and a cobbled area around it. I found this to be relatively free from all the other monsters roaming the cemetary, and it's a good spot to shackle-kite Mor'Ladim. Just kite him to one side, shackle, and then run to the opposite side.

Hope this was helpful.

Alliance Side Only.
Minimum Level Requirement: 28
Notes: It would be wise to be partied up with others while doing this quest as the mob is an elite mob and could be exceedingly difficult to solo.

Mor'Ladim can usually be found around the vicinity of the following co-ords. (16,38)

Mor'Ladim seems to have a respawn time of 0-5 minutes.

Completion of this quest will lead to "The Daughter Who Lived".

Solo'd as 35 Paladin.

Hits fast, very fast, and has a lot of health.&nbsp Wasn't that hard as a paladin though.&nbsp Not long after killing him a 30 warrior asked me to help him kill it.&nbsp Fine.&nbsp Guy couldn't tell me how to start the quest he had though.&nbsp The Dude aggros me twice more while doing the prereq for the Fel quest and on the way back from killing Fel.

Next day after checking 3 other websites on how to start the qeust, with no mention of the grave, I find out how to start the quest here.&nbsp So I drop everything in Stranglethorn I'm doing and go directly to do this quest for revenge.

So the FIFTH time I kill him, as 38 Paladin, I finish the quest.&nbsp Yay completionism. @.@

I solo'd him with a 38 lvl mage.&nbsp I don't now how hard was he in the past but now he is easy.&nbsp However if you are same level as he or lower, better get a friend with you.

Tip: First, clear the area you are going to fight him from the other mobs.&nbsp You don't want to solo him and 2 or 3 other mobs at the same time.

Make sure u have a few friends with u for this guy. Couldn't solo with my lvl 36 druid at all. Even with the help of a lvl 30 warr. either.
Think twice about this unless ur really bored as the xp can't be worth it.

I've soloed him with my lvl 35 rogue. It's easy with evasion and blind to bandage yourself. With assasination specs it's more easy. So, if you are lvl 35, give it a try!

A hard quest, depending how you look at it. I was a lvl 33 warrior when I did this with a lvl 31 priest and was able to finish him off after a few minutes.

If you're below 38, you may want to do it in a group with a priest if possible. The sword that you get from this quest is also badass )

Tried lvl 35 Warlock with VW, killed me pretty easy! He hits so fast i thought he was in fast forward. Got him down to past half then he aggro'd me not my VW and took me out pretty quick. I'll take him at 37 or 38 and probably kill him a few times more just for fun ) P.S anyone ever seen an NPC wolf lvl 40 + called aggro in Duskwood near the grave yard close to Eliza's Grave? He's not listed in the zone and i almost walked right into him thinking he was a regular dire wolf.

He is one tough customer. A 27 pally and myself took him down after 3 tries. He has 3600 hp. If you're a pally, exorcise the hell out of him!

Kited for fun to WestFall @level 24, also solo killed at 24. Came back and did him again solo when I actually had the quest. Easy Kill, but possibly long kill for Hunter's.

Solo'd as 30 hunter, kited to some trees at sven's camp, just keep running around one tree he won't hit you (make sure you have cheetah aspect on) pet will do some damage, use concussive shot, arcane shot etc & if you have time (and a relatively speedy bow) stop for a second and take some pop shots easy quest for a hunter other classes may have some trouble.

As for the moron who said 25's couldn't solo this quest, LEARN TO PLAY your hunter, knowing how to kite is a must for any hunter out there i suggest you get some practice.

I tried using 28 pally along with 26 Dwarf warrior and 29 Mage and we of course got stomped through 4 rez cycles (hard-headed?). Warrior couldn't hold aggro, so he stayed on me, then mage:P While back for more, 60 NE came through and whacked him with one shot and kept on going. Didn't even get a chance to thank him. Nice sword! 23+ dps plus shadow dmg chance on hit. I alt this with my Verigan's Fist to keep training up with both.

This was a previous posting about fiery enchants but thought it was ok to repost here with a bit more fun detail’s added to the fight.

I was very fortunate to have a friend give me this enchant for free on both of my Hunters Axe's (Steelclaw Reaver) & (Gloom Reaper of the Tiger). The enchant dose not go off a often as I expected it to but when it dose especially when both go off at once the damage and special effects is quite cool.

I do attribute it in part to my victory over Mor'ladium a 35 elite in Raven Hill Cemetery out of Duskwood…

I was level 34 at the time after receiving my new enchants I wanted to try something harder than a standard Mob. I decided to go after Mor’ladium of Raven Hill. After finding a suitable area lease likely to get add-on’s I set a fire burst trap and sent in my pet Phantom she fought very valiantly and would not give up as I pummeled our adversary with arrows with an occasional arcane and triple shot With our foe at just less than half life I did loose my best friend Phantom to the ruthless attacks of Mor’ladium he then turned his ravenous attention to me with a swift blood curdling pace he ran towards me determend to vanquish me to a humiliating and painful death.
He stepped through my trap and became engulfed in flames but it did not slow him down with crashing blows we entered into hand-to-hand combat. With the painful loss of my best friend Phantom I decided to fight to the death for his faithful devotion. I was being beaten down terribly my health and mana was almost gone I drank a greater healing potion and got back about 1/3rd of my health but his attacks were relentless and powerful I almost lost the battle but then it happened, The improbable a double fiery burst from my flaming Axe’s and a single 400 + critical hit at the last few determining seconds of the battle decided to whom the hard fought sorrowful victory would go.
My revenge from many a fearful fleeing and a death or two was complete the dreaded Mob of Raven Hill Mor’ladium lay dead at my feet.

Me, 29 war, with pretty much best gear for my level (Burning War axe w/ +7 dmg enchant for example) and a twink 29 paladin tried to take him for fun. Both got owned the first time cause he ran out of mana, and both got away with 50 hp the second time! Got him to 70% the first time, and 80 second.

He hits like every second and hit me for ~100 each time, and i only hit like 25% of normal damage because of his armor/level!
Me hitting so low means i don't generate very much rage, so i can't really use any special attacks! Wait till higher level, or bring more healers!

This goes to the n00bs who boasted soloing him at level 24-25.

Bullsh*t.

Lv32 Hunter, and not my first, either, and I just barely managed to take him, and he did manage to kill my pet.

There is no way a lv24 or 25 are gonna solo him. Keep dreaming.

Tried to solo as lvl 35 pally. He was defeated, but only because a last minute entry by someone else. His armor and melee attacks are both high. I had to constantly heal myself just to stay alive while the mage kept hitting him. I wouldnt have made it otherwise.

I just downed him by myself. Im a lvl 36 Frost Mage. I just frost bolt him 3 times or until he gets near me, frost nova him, back up, frost bolt him as many times as possible then repeat. I had to drink a healing potion one time and my health was very low by the time he died, but i did it no problem.

Lvl 31 warrior Lvl 31 priest. Wasn't even close though it wasn't a fast fight.

Basic warrior and priest tactics dropped him.

Warrior - Use a shield. Defensive stance, keep 5 sunders on him and use shield block - guaranteeing a block is useful in this fight though I don't think it was really needed. Heroic strike if you have the energy.

Priest - Mana is for healing and hothing else. Wand him if you aren't healing. Don't cut the heals too close.

solo at lvl 35 pally took him down easily with use of healing spells, lay on hands and immunity spells, takes a bit, if you are doing it alone keep him secluded from the other baddies around the area
