Required Money: 20

Description

Well met, <class>. I've something that might interest you.

I have in my possession a set of armor much like the one worn by those of your profession, but of much higher quality. I'd be willing to trade the bracers for ordinary ones in exchange for a small favor.

The blood of the frostsabers and bears that inhabit Winterspring has properties I'm in need of at the moment. Bring me a sizeable sample of it along with the bracers and a small amount of gold. You shall find the effort worth your while.

Go to Winterspring, seek out the Sabers at the top portion of the map.&nbsp The bears didn't drop as often as the Sabers.&nbsp My kill ratio was about 5/6 to 1.&nbsp Any Saber in that area will you give you the goods.

If you intend to do the next step of the chain to get the gloves and belt, you can save a return trip (as well as 10 Gold) by picking up a Fel Elemental Rod before you leave.

It is purchased from the imp Vi'el, who resides in a cave near the entrance to Darkwhisper Gorge. Travel south along the road from Everlook, and cross the bridge. You can sneak past the two elite Hederine Slayers at the entrance to the gorge, and also past the elite Felhound at the mouth of the cave if you pay careful attention to its patrol route. Purchase the rod from Vi'el for 40 and take it back to Mux.

If you wait to actually get the quest, the guy swindles you by charging an extra 10G so buy it while you are there.

see the post for winterspring blood, but to repeat here: go to 51,11 / 55,11 (cant remember which)
there is a hillside with cubs.

I had a 90% drop rate, by killing JUST 59's and the cubs and waiting for the respawn. Did the lot in under 15mins

The questgiver is in the same room as King of Ironforge... in Ironforge - ironically :)

Just enter the room, and you find her(?) on the left side.

Will the panthers drop the items before you have the quest? I'm lvl 56 and would like to start collecting for the quest now. Is that possible?

Samples drop off the sartooth bears quickly, 15 samples in 20 minutes. Drop rate was better then 60% for me. The bracers are not required to get the samples. The drop rate could be connected to your level, I got the samples as a 67 rogue.

Now going to find the bracers.

I dont think the bears in Winterspring actually drop this, I got none from about 20. Try the frostsabers instead

I am so excited about WoW Classic, that I decided to post a comment on this quest... This final quest I completed SO MANY years ago, when I first hit lvl 60!
I will comment on this post when I finally do it once again almost 14 years later.

It might be the nostalgia talking, but this truly is the greatest game ever created!

You will lose your enchantment on the bracers once you upgrade.

The reason it's classed as a dungeon is probably because of the Wildheart Bracers. They drop off of mobs in both Stratholme and Scholomance.

I couldn't find a decent group for either and ended up buying them on AH for about 25g.
