Sylvanas isn't as nearly as hard as her toy dreadlord, Varimathras. Killing her poses no problems, but killing Varimathras can be... well, let's say tricky. The interestign thing about her is that she looks nothing like her Forsaken brethren and I bet many people who play Undead are very jealous that she has all her body intact.

The leader of the Undead. A tragic character if you know about her past from WC3. I wonder if one day she might be returned to life.

Can anyone confirm the health of these NPC's in UC. The battlemaster's health seems incredibly low (low enough to one shot em) and Lady Sylvanas doesn't sound high enough to be a city leader.

She hates Arthas, he Killed Slylvans while she was alive, Arthas killed Sylvanas while she was Defending her Homeland and Deathknigth Arthas turned her to Banshee, She must have to Possesed a High Elf or Nigth Elf.. Dunno wich one she did.. she looks like a Nigth Elf.. And dreadlord Varimathras is her "Slave" dreadlord Varimathras Swore Loyality to Sylvanas at exchance of Saving his Life and dreadlord Varimathras betrayed his "Brother Dreadlords" When Lichking lose some of his powers and Minion Undead because Illidan threated Frozen Throne with help of Blood Elves and Nagas. But when Lichking lose some of his Powers Sylvans Freed herself Slavery of Lichking And Arthas. She took some Undead to herself and they Became to Forsaken.. "Huoh".. was that all?

She periodically vanishes and reappears elsewhere. She also runs around randomly, regardless of tanking, to shoot people from range. She summons skeletons as well but considering the waves of UC guards that will be spawning you'll hardly notice them. Her erattic vanishing/reappearing and running around can lead to unavoidably pulling Varimathras if she decides to visit him. This happened to us, and though his abilities could make him tricky he didn't have the HP to be a problem.

I'm just wondering....it says she has 3,500 health here, so your saying i could just Mind Blast and Shadow Word:Death her and she's dead?

Commento di Rainfall

"Sylva" (or "Silva") means "forest" in Latin, thus formerly she could be called "Lady of the Forest". That is also obviously resembles her former rank of a Ranger General when she was still a High Elf.

Commento di 83140

as tbc came out they increased her to a higher lvl
pre tbc-around a 62
tbc-anround a 75
and if anyone noticed that elite abomination guards spawn to assist, noticed this during the necropolis patch. when you engaged the 62 elites wandering aroud the elites pawn and assist you.

Commento di 42243

Shes is one of the most tragic characters in the WC history. I hope that she will come to life when you kill Arthas in Wrath of The Lich King (maybe she will give a quest where you shall kill Arthas)

Commento di sammion

Sylvanas has a neat little shadowstep ability that makes the fight annoying as heck and take awhile as it causes all players to untarget her (My pet owl kept her targeted though, somehow.) and have to look around.

Easily the hardest Horde City Leader, The others are mainly Tank & Spank, this one's just annoying.

Commento di 97314

she used to be a Bloodelf, untill she died in a fight with the Scourge and Arthas (the new Lich King) came and sucked out her soul, from what ive heard :)

Commento di Divvy

She's going to play a role in the next expansion setting up a Forsaken camp / city called Camp Agamand in the Howling Fjord of Northrend, supposed to be led and run by her and the Royal Apothecary Society. She is such a passionate character, I hope she has a good ending, whatever it is...I'd assume whenever we get to kill off Arthas she will be pretty pleased. <Champion of the Banshee Queen> title please.

Edited for spelling.

Commento di Divvy

Stolen from Wowwiki...

I know this is probably old news to most just wanted to post it...

Sylvanas will reportedly be moving to (or appear temporarily in) the Forsaken camp of New Agamand in the Howling Fjord of Northrend. It is here that the plague that the Royal Apothecary Society has been developing to combat the Scourge will be tested, as indicated from this section of the Howling Fjord background on the official site:

On the eastern shore, the Forsaken have arrived, carrying a plague of their own to unleash upon the Lich King. Queen Sylvanas has been methodically and patiently overseeing the formulation of this contagion for several years, and the time has come at last to test its effectiveness against the Scourge.

I was fiddling around on the Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne website and found that one of the Blood Mage names are "Sylvos Windrunner." Kinda interesting, would be neat if they put him in game somewhere as a living relative.

Commento di Divvy

Great thinking there man, it would be awesome if she had some relatives or whatever that were undiscovered or even discovered it would be awesome to see, could really make for a great storyline, I love Sylvanas! Long Live the Forsaken!

Commento di 145392

Ok lets clear this up a bit, Sylvanas was a High Elf, not a Blood Elf.

Diferences:

Blood Elves feed on Demonic Energy when the Sunwell is corrupted (NOTE: CORRUPTED not DESTROYED) hence their eyes are green

High Elves feed on pure Arcane Magic (The Sunwell's and Well or Eternity's) so they have blue eyes.

Blood Elves have Blood Knights

High Elves have Paladins

The ears of the Blood Elves are a bit more vertical than the High Elves's (Though I cant think of an explanation for that)

High Elves are almost extinct, the High Elves that are alive are in Stormwind or in Dalaran (With the exeption of Sylvanas's 2 sisters which both are missing, the one in action and the other just missing. Allera and Vereesa Windrunner).

Noticable thing is that Sylvanas's model is the Night Elf model "modded" to have pale skin,bigger and other eyes. She also sings when you complete a long quest chain starting from a necklace that drops from UD in the Ghostlands. You can also hear the song if you copy this text in your chat: /script PlaySoundFile("Sound\\Music\\GlueScreenMusic\\BCCredits_Lament_of_the_Highborne.mp3")

She used to be Human, actually a leader of the elves. Arthas killed her, and she seeked her revenge on him. It wasn't until her people were killed by the scourge and betrayed by the humans to become enemies of the Alliance.

I thought Sylvanas and Varimathras are you know.... but if you match dreadlord and blood elf thats gross

Commento di 153483

that song sounds awfully like the music on the isle of quel'danas..you know...when your just randomly questing you hear it... i think it is.

Commento di Sinverse

Actually there are a few mistakes here.

First and foremost, the blood elves were high elves. If Sylvanas survived the Third War I would presume that she would be a blood elf by now.

The blood elves did not feed upon the the corrupted Sunwell. The corrupted Sunwell was the greatest danger to the remaining blood elves so Kael'thas planned to destroy it which he successfully did by dispersing the corrupted energies (the remaining pure energy manifested to Anveena by the red dragon Korialstrasz). Kael'thas then accepted Illidan's offer of magic source which is fel magic. It is fel magic that has set these blood elves apart from the other remaining high elves scattered in Azeroth.

Yes the high elves do feed upon arcane currents but only to ease their agony of being addicted to magic and definitely not from the Sunwell, at least not anymore (although this could change prior to the 2.4 events). They naturally have blue eyes and the arcane energy has nothing to do with it. They are not limited to having blue eyes (i.e. Alleria Windrunner and her half elf son Arator).

Blood knights are technically paladins. And Blood Knights are basically the equivalent of the Knights of the Silver Hand. The main thing to note is the blood elves' source of holy energy: holy energy that lingers from the magisters who previously "tended" the captive naaru, M'uru (used to be directly from M'uru pre-2.4). As for the high elves, it would be purely from Light just like all Alliance paladins.

Both blood elves and high elf npc's have the same models so there's no difference in their ears. Maybe you were talking about the night elves or the rare highborne.

So in conclusion, yes Lady Sylvanas was a high elf not a blood elf (whom are non existent at the time she was still alive anyway). But if Lady Sylvanas Windrunner changes models, she would look like a blood elf model which is the same as the high elf npc models. But of course with a touch of more rounded blood red eyes and pale blue skin. Lore-wise she should be as short as female blood elves.

Commento di 65503

If you look at the screen shots you will see the she have the female night elf spell movements the female night elf eye markings, and the femeal night elfs body and skin color. i truly think she was a night elf i mean look at her her name windrunner? sounds like a name named after nature (HINT) (HINT) but both elfs have nature names but all the other facts adds up to her body, skin, markings, movements i guess she picked a night elf bady bye mistake i would if ur dead every thing looks blue so ya. pick which side you like but im pick the night elfs side GO NIGHT ELFS.......and bloods elf my 2 favriot classes

Commento di Thottbot

please dont post when you havent fought her properly, right firstly i went in there solo and pulled her solo without bodyguard so he doesnt protect her.

then i took a raid in for fun it took all of 4 minutes to get to her and no nothing is pulled on entering room simply go into a cove in wall pull her nad AE those skellies, we wasnt successful but we had like 20 people levels 40+ as i said a mess around after a hard days PvP.

the other thing is she teleports which is really annoying as she hits with bow for like 900 on me im a hunter and 1200 with melee good luck guys and girls.

Commento di Thottbot

Sylvanas Windrunner used to be a High Elf once (with a name like that, who knew!).

When arthas was trying to get some really niftey item to resurect his little lich buddy he had to grind his way through, well, almost the entire high elf race to get to it.
Sylvanas had the unfortunate task of being the Commander in Chief of all the High elf Forces defending the Elf-Ville.

Arthas was victorius, Killed everyone, and murdered Sylvana. But since he was an evil prick, Killing her just wasnt enough so he raised her as a Banshie.

He then went ahead and did a whole bunch of other stuff and ended up fighting Illidan on some huge iceberg rather close to the crown of Azeroth, When he was fighting he got weak and lost controle of a big portion of his army in the Easten Kingdoms, Those forces either became mindless drones, or gained sentience and rebelled under the command of the Bansie Lady Sylvanas Windrunner.

They took over the undercity, Had a huge party and are now planing a bunch of ways to get revengo on the Lich King.

Oh, and she also became great buddies with Varimathras and he became her bodyguard.

Ok, that said, If you still want some questions answered just either play the games or read the story featured on Blizz.com.

Commento di Thottbot

Well I actually read WoW's history now. And it all makes sense.

*reads game manual once again*

Apparently she was Ranger-General of Silvermoon, but she indeed was a HIGH ELF. So was her army.
She was killed in the battle and Arthas "resurrected" her as a Banshee.
Along with her army, the undead Forsaken, she breaked lose from the Scourge and Plague and stuff and claimed the ruins of Lordaeron herself. Today it is the Undercity, capital city of the Undead.

Commento di Thottbot

Has anyone who played WarcraftIII:Reign of Chaos
thought about how easy sylvanas was to kill with a lvl 6+ arthas?
Okay, BIG question; if Bliz choose to make an Arthas-boss instance how overpowered do you think he will be?
All-race alligned war with 100+ raidgroups?

Commento di Thottbot

The bosses are basically identically to players except they have massive amount of HP.

That being said, the bosses have different "true levels"

Here are the list of faction bosses:

Alliance:

Highlord Bolvar, aka I didn't see a giant dragon standing five feet away from me, Fordragon----at stormwind keep
Archbishop, aka I have a basement inviting any horde warlock to summon raid me, Benedictus------at stormwind cathedal
King Magni, aka I need you to kill my son in law, Bronzebeard-----at ironforge highseat
High Tinker, aka no nobody know I exist, Mekkar------at ironforge Tinkertown
Archdruid Faugon, need anger management, Staghelm------at top of Cenarion Conclave at darnassus
Priestess Tyrande, aka husband missing for ten thousand years, Whisperwind---at temple of moon at Darnasus
Lady Jaina, aka I love green (Thrall) more than blond (Arthas), Proudmoore----at top of the Theramore central keep

Horde:

Lady Sylvanas, aka I am the queen of Zerg..er forsaken, Windrunner----at Undercity Royal Chamber
Majordomo, aka I can fly before the beer gut, Varimathas----at Undercity Royal Chamber
Warchief, aka I didn't ninja this platemail, Thrall---at Orgrimmar valley of wisdom
(Don't know his title) Vol`jin, aka I like to stand and chill while alliance raiding Thrall --at orgrimmar valley of wisdom
Highchieftain Cairne, aka I die three times a day at Warcraft III, Bloodhoof---highchieftian's tent at Thunderbuff

That being said, i think the easiest boss to take down will in fact be Archbishop Benedictus. Since there is a basement right beside him which is perfect for horde's summon sneak attack. The archdruid, Tyrande and Jaina are all standing at pretty cramped places, so they are a bit harder.

Sylvanas and varimathas are standing together. Thrall and Vol'jin is standing together. But no raid is really stupid enough to take two bosses on at the same time. They will simply pull one out.

Again, all bosses are acting as players in term of damage, which means they can outlevel you by 10000 level, but you will still be able to hit them.

According to the World of Warcraft Strategy guide, all the bosses are in fact level 63 with exception of Bolvar, Varimathas and Tyrande. (Don't flame me if I remembered wrong.)

varimathas, level 100---probably why no one has tried to mess with him yet. As far as we know, he could have kicked Ragnaros' ass by himself if he tried.

Tyrande Wisperwind, level 75----sigh...poor darnassus, with max population of 5 people at peak hour. Though I did hear quite a few raid wipe from her by the starfall.

Highland Bolvar Fordragon, level 90---if you are alliance come to Stormwind three times a day and watch he kill 7 level 62 Onixya's elite guards by himself and have 80% health left. It has been confirmed by my own eye that he does indeed use divine shield...multiple times in a 10 minute. As far as I know, he is the only boss that will heal himself to full health.

The rest are the bits of information I had with how these bosses fight.

Alliance:

Highlord Bolvar Fordragon----A combination of warrior and paladin, divine shield + cleave + laying of hand? (heal himself to full, but didn't see his mana go down. I want his talent spec!) Summon stormwind guards.

Archbishop benedictus------so far i heard is that he bashes you with his staff and cast holy nova.

King Magni Bronzebeard-----Avatar from Warcraft III. Don't become immune to magic though.

High Tinker Mekkar------no fight heard

Archdruid Faugon Staghelm------been took down a few times, but I don't have any information on him.

Priestess Tyrande Whisperwind---only know she cast starfall sometimes. Summoning darnassus sentienal.

Lady Jaina Proudmoore----Massive AoE at very cramped tower and she will teleport your maintank outside theramore. (Imagining Jaina with a baseball bat and yell "Home Run!") Summoning theramore guard.

Horde:

Lady Sylvanas Windrunner----Shooting arrow with a lot of damage, melee with a sword and teleport around. Summon skeleton guards.

Majordomo Varimathas----no fight recorded

Warchief Thrall---Only saw him fight at distance from the alliance most wanted video. Summon Orgrimar grunts. (He is a platemailed shaman. i don't know whether he cast shocks or not)

Vol`jin-----no fight recorded

Highchieftain Cairne Bloodhoof---Same old Cairne from warcraft III. No rebirth though and the weapon is a giant totem instead of a halberd now.

k, hopefully these information helps.

Commento di Thottbot

Racial Leaders should drop something they have/use making raiding more benefical

Cairne should drop His Totem which can be a 2H mace

Thrall should drop his Hammer(mace) which can be a 1h mace or his plate armor

Sylvanas should drop her bow or swords

Varimarthas uses his claws so maybe you can rip out his hands which can be fist eapons

Rexxar can drop his 1h axes

Bolvar can drop a shield or sword

Tyrande could drop her weapon what ever it is she had a bow in Warcraft 3

Magni can drop his Hammar(mace)

Arch Druid Fandal Staghelm could drop a staff or armor or better yet insults

The high Tinker can drop his shield or goggles

The archbishop can drop a staff or cloth armor

Jaina Proudmoore cawn drop her staff, a spell book or cloth armor

few days ago just after the burning crusade came out i caught a glimpse of her summoning four spirits while chanting something. i saw it happening twice. it lasted for a minute or so. the spirits disappeared after a minute, sylvanas called someone named belore and picked up an amulet from the floor. any idea what's up with her?

Syvlanas was a high elf. After Arthas lost contorl over her, she took back control of herself, and then went to go find her body. Naturally, her body wasn't exactly perfect, seeing as how it was dead for a while. She took it back, one thing lead to another, and now she's the Forsaken's leader.

She's got a nelf body because Blizz hadn't made high elf bodies a the time, and was given a placeholder body that never got replaced.

Commento di Thottbot

ive helped defend during UC raids and when sylvanas is stuck everything aggros.. about 5-6 deathguard elites, all the royal dreadguards, the battlemasters, sylvanas' summoned skeletons, and varim if there is aoe... definitely not an easy pull ;]

Commento di Thottbot

I love watching the feeble efforts of the alliance as Sylvanas and Varimathras easily take them out in droves. Having the enthusiastic server we have, dozens of buff are placed on them and the alliance lvl 70's are quickly killed. So much fun...

Commento di Thottbot

Verimathras can easily kill Sylvanas. Not in WC3, but in WoW. Verimathras has never been killed. Sylvanas has.

Commento di Thottbot

She is not a night elf gone bad you dumbass...
She is a corrupted high elf...
Since Arthas wiped out the high elves, she had to choice to take her corrupted "sisters" and make her own race called the forsaken...
She is not evil, she is still technically a high elf, but she sided with the horde side for a reason I do not know of...
If arthas never began losing his power in wc 3 tft, before he gains the power of the lich king, sylvanas would still be part of the scourge with arthas...
So yeah...She is NOT a night elf gone bad...She is just a corrupted high elf that was able to get her and her sisters out of arthas's corruption while arthas was weak...

Commento di Thottbot

Forgot something...
The only reason she LOOKS like a night elf, is because there were no high elf characters before the Burning Crusade pack came out...
Hopefully they make a new patch that changes the appearence of sylvanas and makes her LOOK like an undead high elf...

Commento di Thottbot

I wonder if Dalaran is going to Boss unlike Shattrath witch should let the Aldor and Scryer raid Bosses of that faction if they have any. (I think that would be cool for next patch)

Commento di Thottbot

Ignore...

Commento di Thottbot

I want to clear up the argument about her appearance.

Here is a picture of her from WCIII: Frozen Throne:

Dark Ranger Sylvanas (Undead High Elf/ Banshee Queen):
http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/wowwiki/images/thumb/9/9d/Sylvanas-WC3.jpg/120px-Sylvanas-WC3.jpg

We can either decide from here that, A) Blizzard was lazy and slapped together a female Night Elf model instead of make a whole new model for Sylvanas; B) The High Elf/Blood Elf models were unavailable before Burning Crusade and Blizzard didn't want to spoil the inclusion of Blood Elves (which would kind of mean that Blizzard would update Sylvanas' model after TBC was released); or C) The female Night Elf model used for Sylvanas in WoW closely (if not perfectly) resembles her Warcraft III portrait after death, and does more than what a darker High Elf model could have for her character.

I'll go with choice C.

Commento di Thottbot

Please dont dog me if im not right about this but I am huge Sylvanas fan so I think I wont mess up.

Part 1: Sylvanas Windrunner was the RANGER - GENERAL of ALL the rangers of the high elf race.

Part 2: Now Arthas comes with his scourge army to ressurect the Lich Kel'THuzad (Arthas killed him in WArcratf III)

Part 3: Arthas fights Sylvanas from the outer kingdom of Quel'Thalas all they way to her main base in Silvermoon. Now this is where it happens. Arthas killed her then used his dark powers to bring her back as an Undead Banshee.

Part 4: Sylvanas was a servant to the Lich King until... The LICH KING started to lose power NOT Arthas.

Part 5: When the Lich King and Arthas (Arthas began losing poower as well) started to lose their powers Sylvanas and her elven sisters now banshees broke free of the Lich King's grasp and Sylvanas started her own reign. Which is where the dreadlords and the humans come in.

Part 6: Now when Sylvanas was her own she searched for her body after she found it (not as perfect as it was when she was a HIGH ELF becuase of all the rot) she took it up regianed her old form.

Thats what happened basically may have left a few parts out.

Note: The reason why Sylvanas looks like in Night Elf in WoW is because before TBC their were no Blood Elves in WOw you couldnt play them. So Blizzard didnt want to spoil the High Elf model AND the Blood ELf model by making Sylvanas look like she should. So they used a Night Elf model and Blizzard never changed her. But their are High Elf forms looking almost exactly like the Blood Elf form except for the difference etween the blue and green eyes. If you want to see for yourself their are three things you can do. A) Look around Azeroth and Outlands their are High Elves scattered about (look at thoose eyes because you wont be able to tell otherwise there models are the same. High Elves have blue eyes Blood Elf green.) B) Go to Auberdine, Darkshore and on the docks their is a High Elf named Fiora Longears. Or C go to wowwiki.com and type in "search" either High ELves witch will give you more information on the race or Fiora Longears a certain High Elf ive seen so you know the High Elf Model.

I hope this all helps.

Commento di Allakhazam

its weird.. Blizz made her look like a NE since the High Elven NPC's would be made different when TBC came out(now) but they found out she is much more terrifying to look at as a NE model, because of her height compared to a BE/HE. but she was turned UD by Arthas when he went to Quel'Thalas in WC3 to revive Kel'thuzad in the Sunwell, draining the arcane powers that turned the HE/BE to the magic hungering creatures they are, and turned Sylvannas into a banshee under Arthas' control but she broke free because Arthas and The lich King's powers where fading(WC3 TFT missions, human and scourge) so she took over Lordaeron and killed that Lord Garithos guy, Detheroc and got Varimathras to kill his own brother Balnazzar(or, "kill", as some said he is the leader of the new Scarlet Crusade, inside Stratholme Living). since Blizz didnt have any good High Elf looking NPC's except for those from the various Blood Elves scattered around the world, for example Lothos Riftwalker in Blackrock Mountain, the guy you can acces MC trough, was not a pretty looking elf but now is a normal BE, they made her a NE since they are kinda scary looking(well she is, some kind of....) but why didnt they change her? 1: she is huge as a NE. 2: she has those cool markings only NE women can have and she is white/black so she looks awesome. and 3: because the NE woman model was/is the sexiest model of all the women races. hope i helped someone, and myself.. xD

The quest where she summons the Banshees to sing is a BE quest, you find a necklace at Windrunner Spire in Ghostlands, when you return it to her she summons the banshees, oh and its a beautiful song, hang around and listen.

Commento di Allakhazam

Everyone says she's undead. Well if that's the case, why is her race specified as humanoid when you target her, and it is clearly shown above too, as humanoid.

Level: 25 to 500 Humanoid

She is currently not undead. She may have been or will be in the future, but not now.

I like her though. Night elf chicks rule.

This is weird. Did Blizzard really try to pull this one off in their sleep?

Sylvanas is the sister of Alleria Windrunner, one of the Alliance's heroes from the WC2 expansion who is assumed dead on Dreanor until proven otherwise (come on, Alleria, get back here and set your wayward sister straight). Yes, it's her who is portrayed as the last statue on your right in the Valley of Heroes when you enter Stormwind from Elwynn.

Now, both of the Windrunners were ranger captains from the Quel'Thalas region which is no more since it was decided to punish the highelves for wanting to keep themselves away from all the action in WC3. Bad idea, yes. But that doesn't mean she has to change appearance so much that it looks like she's one of the by far elder nightelves now. And although there's far between them, there is actually highelves stationed in various places. One of them is in the Wizard's Sanctum as a lvl 50 mage trainer. And while she does have the same freakish height and lovely bouncy attitude as an ordinary nightelf female, her long ears do point upwards rather than backwards. And Sylvanas is supposed to be a highelf transformed into a banshee and not just a brooding gigantic nightelf.

So what has happened? I'm out of ideas.
Reducing her to the state she was in when our lovely spoiled brat Arthas transformed her is certainly a no-go. Think of Blind Mary in Duskwood. Brrr. The "dark ranger" from the Frozen Throne still sounds much too mainstream and dorky but I suppose it works and fits for most occasions.

My plea would be that they at least gave her the looks of her highelven brethren and made her drink some Noggenfogger elixir and shrink a little.

Or what?

I went in one day on Frostmane and decided to pickpocket her. I got one of those level 45 mushroom food that restores ~2000 HP and approximately 3 silver.

Awesome loot.

Commento di Allakhazam

are all the other bosses just as %^&*ed up as this one? or is it just her?

Commento di Allakhazam

Could anyone link most low level items that look like what she wearing? It would be nice to look like her as nelf xD;

The robe looks a bit like robes of arugal and those gloves like some plate..

Oh and those who still dont know the story nor understand it...check these:

She was killed and transformed into a Banshee by arthas. The lich king controlled her mind.
The lih kings powers were fading. Sylvans took control over her body appearnce. The lich kings power faded even more. The lich king didn't controll her mind anymore. She had a meeting with 3 dreadlords whos plan was to kill arthas. Her banshees trapped arthas while she shoot a paralyzing arrow and was prepared to kill him slowly but Kel'thuzad was there in the right moment and killed the banshees but sylvanas escaped and swore to hunt arthas for the rest of her life. She begun to fight one of the dreadlords, varimthas (spelling?). He begged for his life and echanged it for his loyality. They killed the 2nd dreadlord. And sylvanas said that varimithras should kill his brother to prove his loyality but he doubted for a moment but finished him of anyway. Sylvanas and varimthras formed the Forsaken. Hope that is all :p

NE BE and HE are all different and represented in WoW. She is a High Elf from Quel'Thalas. She gave Arthas such a hard time defending her home that when he finally defeated her he made her a Banshee. She targets humanoid now as she is Forsaken and all forsaken target as such. If you think Im full of crap either go pay Warcraft 3 or read this link.

I find it funny she's supposed to be queen of the Undead but she doesn't even talk to you...

even Cairne talks to you.

I was wondering a couple of things about Lady Windrunner here...First of all, does anyone know what armour she is wearing? The gaunts, belt and boots look like Deathbone(plate)...And the chest does too only it's not the same colour as the actual deathbone chest (it actually matches the gloves and boots)...And the skirt looks like the bottom half of Arugal's Robes...can the chestplate and skirt be obtained by players?

Second, which game was it that she was turned into the Banshee Queen? WC3 or the Frozen Throne expansion?

Thanks!

I think Lady Sylvanas Windrunner is a "Dark Elf" i have heard about a Dark Elf is a evil night elf :D

Commento di Allakhazam

She got killed by Arthas and was resurected as a Banshee close to Quel'Thalas. She did become to first Banshee. She was Artas loyal servant. But the Lich kings powers were fading so she took control of her body appearance and transformed herself into an High-elf. The Lich kings powers were still weakening. The Lich king controlled every undead units mind but while his powers were fading, Sylvanas begun to think self and not being a "prisoner" :p . So the days passed and it was three Dreadlords wanting to have a meeting with her. Their plan was to kill Arthas but Sylvanas wanted it alone. Her fellow banshees trapped Arthas and Sylvanas shoot a paralyzing arrow so that he couldn't move. But Kel'thuzad and slaughtered all her Banshees but she did escape. Then she fighted all the dreadlords and spared one dreadlords life for echange for his loyality.

That's what happened, and she turned into a Banshee in Reign of Chaos.

Commento di Allakhazam

In WC3 when Arthas resurrects her as a Banshee she has the Highborn Ghost looks. You know, the ghosts going "Aaahh" and "Oooh" whenever you smach them...

Now she's back to her elf shape? What did I miss?

Commento di Allakhazam

ok mate thts below me now :)
first of all the night elves HATE the High/blood elves because, when the night elves first bbrought the demons into azeroth using magic, they swore NEVER to use magic again, but one family (the sunstriders (as in kael'thas sunstrider) rejected this, andwere forced to use move to lorderon, they made they home there, by tht time the humans had came along and the high elves taught the humans magic.
and no such thing as high night elf :P
and high elves were NEVER called peace elves, they were lead by kael into outland and they were rewarded with more magic and arcane power they cud ever imagine, and they lef tthe alliance because erm the alliance were bein racist or what ever , but iblizz made a crutial mistake, if the horde Belves still follow kael as there leader, how come they can still kill them in an instance (well perhaps not yet, but soonish)
heres something aswell on how the Belves and draenei fell out, kael lended them his "machine", the exodar, to get to Azeroth, the draenei gave no reason for the jopurneys and left agf=trer having crashed kaels machin, he swore war against the draenic forces and the draenei swore to destroy the burning legion once and for all... ( al thought blizz might want to clarrify some pure histroy on High elves blood elves night elves, the scourge the burning legion and the hatred tht draeni and Belvs have for each other after the both helped eahc other..

I'm just wondering what kind of abilities does she have? Like Tyrande is supposed to have starfall, doing 1500-2500 dmg/tick?
Would be nice to know, if someone tried attacking her :)

Commento di Allakhazam

Killed her the other on EU-Hellscream. Had a full raid of players between 55 and 60 (mostly 60) and we took her down very few deaths. Mobhealth estimated her health about 500000 HP and as it has been said previously, she blinks around the room like crazy, making it hard to damage her much. The room has a number of Lv60e guards that will respawn several times over the fight plus she summons a whole bunch of 50+ (non-elite) skeletons. These are however, not immune to magic as I spent most of the raid clearing out her summons and I'm a mage. Because of this, I can't say much about her damage, though she does some AoE that seems to do decent damage. The only thing I can say is that the people who died were ambushed by guards or her summons and not due to her direct action.

I believe that they key to defeating her is to leave Varimathras alone, which we did, he was still alive and unaggroed when we all hit the portal and left. Pulling Sylvanas without aggroing Varimathras is fairly easy, just have the entire raid hug the left wall on her chamber, move around, killing guards until she is between you and Varimathras. From that vantage point, she is pullable without any problems. She gave one HK: Leader, 360-somthing honor points and apparently 20-somthing gold to one of the parties.

What's the quest where Sylvanas summons banshees to sing?

First, you need to get the item, The Lady's Necklace (Item Link). It drops off of the level 14-15 Deatholme Acolytes and Fallen Rangers at the Windrunner Spire (15,55) in the Ghostlands. Right-Click on the item in your bag to begin the level 15 quest titled, "The Lady's Necklace" (Quest Link).

Take the necklace to High Executioner Mavren (44,32) at Tranquillien. Talk to Mavren again to start the quest "Journey to Undercity" (Quest Link).

Take the necklace to Lady Sylvanas Windrunner in Undercity.

NOTE: Make sure that "Enable Music" is checked (turned on) in Sound Options before you turn in.

i have played all Warcraft games.. even WoW .. so i know.. arthas actually won her in dalaran.. she asked him to kill her fast .. but he said " i'd rather prefer to make you suffer..Windrunner " so then she was transformed into a forsaken.. Getting this chance.. Arthas-The Black Knight.. went to quel'thalas to destroy the Sunwell.. ( Not Moonwell.. Moonwell is at Darnassus ) Getting the power of the Sunwell for that to revive a Lich king called Kel'Thuzad.. Kel'Thuzad was ruled by a ice brain or something like that.. dont remember too well.. When windrunner died.. her friends were transformed into banshees.. Windrunner swore to have vengeance.. so then she find Arthas in Eastern Plaguelands ( Not Western ) and she
Shoot him an Poisoned Arrow so then she says " Now Pay me.. this arrow will first make u feel bad.. then you will realize you power is being drained.. your powers flows around you.. then it gets to me.. so i can absorb it and make you pay for this betray.. dont you remember our goods time? before u pick that sword and make your best friend, ( A Dwarve ) Died.. u offered him to gain the power.. you killed your own father and then now You're a king ? well not for long.. you have 3 days until you get a cure.. Lets see if you can find Azjol'Nerub.. kill a Rounding Scarab and get her sting.. the potion if the thing that you have to make.. if u heal this arrow will be useless.. but if not.. you will.. DIE "
At the end of this he finds the sting.. but was too late.. he just died.. And guys this is the end of WC3: Frozen Throne.. Arthas was a Human.. Him friend ( i dont remember name ) Was a dorf.. and Lady Sylvanas Windrunner was once a High Night elf.. sitted right next to Tyrande Whisperwind and Furion Stormrage.. This called Furion Stormrage is brother of Illidan Stormrage.. but even they are
family Tyrande.. His wife.. wished to free Illidan more then he does.. when she free him she realize what she do was a Mistake.. she free him.. so now he is Hidded in Outland.. waiting for a idiot mortal to enter His realm.. And here is Something u guys should know.. is SUNWELL not Moonwell.. whatever these Blood Elf were called Peace Elves.. they were Alliance.. but they switched to horde .. because they wished to get their energy back.. arthas and they maked a deal " If You.. Peace Elves.. switch to the Horde and being called Blood Elf.. you will get more power than the expected.. our power sources are more powerfull than the
sunwell.. feel free to choose " so they choose horde and here we are.. Hearing the lament of Lady.. Because she lost all what she had.. Blood Elves.. Once Called Peace Elves.. gave her the amulet.. which was lost in Ghostlands.. and this is all.. im not giving quest info.. im just telling the true story.

If she is that powerful, and near invulnerable, does that mean she drops awesome loot ?

And if she does, what does she drop? If it is anything below spectacular i don't see the reason why you would put in the effort to get beaten by horde players, and 2 SUPER bosses..

heh...this is the most stupid boss i ever met...I was a lvl 60 warrior and i had a lot of health potions...in about 15 minutes i have beaten her...all by myself

Kind of weird that she looks exactly like a night elf when she's apparently a high elf transformed into a forsaken.
