The Legend of Stalvan

Kill Stalvan Mistmantle and show Madame Eva his family ring.
Mistmantle Family Ring

Description

Stalvan Mistmantle led a life of depravity. Innocent victims died by his hand. Undoubtedly he is guilty of countless crimes. Now the lunatic threatens Darkshire. The Light only knows what sordid acts he is plotting. Travel to his cottage just north of town, <class>, and execute Stalvan, once and for all.

When the deed is done, travel to Madame Eva's and show her his family ring. After all, it was her premonition that led to this gruesome discovery. But Darkshire is safer because of her.

i dont think theres one post here so far that doesnt have the words I and solo'd in it, but im a little interested in the story

through letters i found:

1st: he cant teach in moonbrooke so he has to tutor 2 children. the girl is scheduled to marry in 1 year

2nd: the boy is dumb as a post but the girl is smart and captivatingly beautiful

3rd: The girl gives him flowers and smiles at him

4th: She feels for him the way he does for her. they hold hands.... unspoken words go between them...

Then i get:

Darkshores governer or w/e tells me hes a vicous murderer and has a rotten soul and shes been suspicous about him for years, and i have to kill him.

WHAT HAPPENED!

"ironically" enough the ghost that pops at you when you get clues is a girl, and says "toil not on matters of the past, <username>". could this possible be... THE GHOST OF THE SMART CHICK?

so just wanted to express my findings... if you read somthing i didnt about what happened in between him falling in love with an engaged girl and him running a masacre, please tell me.

either post here or mail to Ravenfoot on Whisperwind.

I cant believe I read through all this crap and no co-ords at all and no real help.

co-ords are 77.36 in the Manor Mistmantle - lvl 29-30 on the way to the hut yeilding good xp - clear the area 1st so you can have fun outside with Starvin' Stalvan and you will get the ring (dont wish for anything else) to take and a curse for old times sake.

Finish the area after for extra xp.

And dont do what I did and start a post while in the hut - I just got flogged by respawns - LMAO.

Just solo'd him as a level 26 Protection Paladin. It was very tough, but well worth the axe reward which was a huge DPS improvement for me. I used all of my normal paladin buffs, with the Fire Festival Fury buff adding a lot to my DPS. I had to use both bubbles, lay on hands, and a health potion, but I finally got him! I used exorcism once successfully, but this is a gamble and potential waste of mana. Be sure to have bandages with you, as he runs away when you get his HP low, giving you time to heal up and finish off the final chunk of his health. Don't follow him if he runs out of the house, as he does not attract other mobs (or at least, did not for me) and extra adds would probably hurt.

Of course, I could have waited 2 levels and this would have been simple, but not quite as fun!

Save your finger and check out your auto-run key bindings.

This quest series shuttles you between Duskwood, Westfall, Stormwind, and Elwynn Forest - everything except the Goldshire and Logging Camp bit are easily accessible via gryphon/hearthstone. Do it at your leisure in the 26-28 range as you do other stuff, then take out Stalvan when you get the urge later.

Just as a tip, part of this quest series is in Stormwind, so even though it says Alliance/Horde technially, it's basically impossible to complete if you're Horde, save your effort.

The quest XP rewards leading up to the last quest are ~8500 just by themselves, not bad for an hour or so of gryphon travel and a bit of light jogging. Use the time to make a sandwich or practice meditation. :-P

Crescent of Forlorn Spirits is a lev 35 weapon with a wicked attack speed, and considering you can do this quest before lev 28 easily (28 hunter and 30 warrior smacked Stal, no prob), makes it a desirable weapon.

There is a chest hidden by the Manor at 79,33.&nbsp Not a lot in it, but it's a decent bonus.

Watch out for Stalvan running away at the end.&nbsp He'll run towards the Fetid Corpses and then you have more to fight at once.

I got on a team with a helpful 45 to kill this guy (27 priest at the time). But really, in this quest I wanted to see the story, and see what had happened or would happen.

I felt a bit sorry for the guy, but he was a bit of a creep and obviously insane. Tilloa was quite like her namesake ('Tilloa' is an anagram of 'Lolita' for those who didn't know), to my mind. Nymphet tempting then spurning the older suitor, who went off his rocker. Ah well, such is love. Or something.

Either way, nice questline. :)

The ghouls in the area can give you a pretty devastating (and contagious) disease that slows your cast time by 25% and your hit time by 33%.&nbsp Remember to have a priest cast Cure Disease or take a potion before you take on Stalvan.

Also, as has been said before, READ THE JOURNALS.&nbsp Not only is it a cool, involving story (even though it's a little dumb that no one puts two and two together and realizes that Stalvan MISTMANTLE might live in Manor MISTMANTLE ten feet outside of town) nothing's more annoying than some lazy teenager asking a question he could answer himself if he took thirty seconds to think it over.

Level 24 Paladin was able to easily complete all segments of this quest chain except Stalvan(level 32) himself . I gave it a shot after consuming a variety of&nbsp buffs but to no avail . The aid of a level 30 Warrior pal I partied with closed the deal . Stalvan dropped the quest ring and the warrior pulled a bar of truesilver from the fireplace chest . As for the reward after turning in , both are acceptable items for the expected toon level . If selling , the Axe is worth more . Though I must choose the Axe on the basis that quest items have no level requirement and I would have to be at least level 31 to have a green single handed weapon of this DPS . An enjoyable story line that I didn't mind running to and fro for . I wonder , if I focused only on this quest chain , could I have done it quickly enough to never lose the ten minute curse ? Fun .

77,36 is a good coord for him. He is located at Mismantle Manor and you will find him in the house, or coming out of it every so often. If you are level 30 or higher you should have little to no problem soloing this quest. He will run when he is low on health, so watch out for him pulling others to you when he does.

The quest item for this is good for warriors, the axe is very nice for a short time.

finished this last nite after a long runround. Myself Warrior level 23, and a mage level 25. Had a druid as backup keeping us alive, plus a couple of hits on him when we were wearing down a bit.

Not really sure if it was worth it, had to log right after to go to work.

Just tried soloing this as an Affliction-oriented Human Warlock who had just popped 27 prior to getting this final part of the quest. Didn't have too hard of a time with the beasts around the graveyard, but Stalvan himself proved to be more than a match, even for a Warlock who has put more into his Stamina stat than most other Warlocks that I know. Even having a caseload of different potions (Elixirs of Defense, Wisdom and Firepower) didn't help all that much either. Not sure if using my Voidwalker instead of my Imp would have made much of a difference, but I like to think that the VW could have tanked most if not all the damage before Stalvan finally turned his attention on me.

Oh well will try this another day.

I took him down no problem (30 Pally), but I couldn't open the chest that's in his fireplace. It would start to open for a second then i would get "the item is not in your line of site." i tried every which direction but couldn't get it open. I'll go back later and try again but I'm just glad no quest item was in there.

pain in the a** series, but well worth the ~10,000xp or so for the chain.
stealth and poison make the fight fair, and he will try to run at about 20% health. He's fast without being slowed, so either use crippling poison or clear the undead before you take him out.
