Sigil of Arathor

Retrieve the Sigil of Arathor and return it to Zengu in Hammerfall.
Sigil of Arathor

Description

Though they can barely be said to control Stromgarde, let alone the whole of Arathi Highlands, the human prince trots the remnants of his cavalry over the countryside. I can't understand why he does it, but who understands the way the humans think, hm?

Whatever his reasoning, more importantly, he has given one of the sigils to Lieutenant Valorcall, their cavalry leader. Locate him and bring his sigil back to me.

Reward

Also, you get: 55

Progress

Valorcall will not be easy to track down, <name>. Mounted on horseback, he can cover ground quickly. Nonetheless, we must have his sigil.

Completion

Losing their cavalry leader will prove a large blow to the Stromgarde defenders. Better yet, it means that we are only one sigil from being able to have Trol'kalar for ourselves.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:

I had a hard time finding anyone to help with this quest. He walks a path from Stromgarde &amp; Dabyrie's Farmstead with 2 other elite types (lvl 36 I think). See links above for Sigil of Arathor item for path he walks. I got lucky while looking for him solo. His group came across the Horde courier group walking towards Hillsbrad. When they started fighting each other, I attacked Lt Valorcall. Item dropped and then helped the courier group kill the other two.

I don't know if anyone else has been having this problem, but I couldn't loot this guy if I killed him inside strom. I kept getting ""you don't have permission to loot this corpse"".

If you kill him on the road that runs past Strom he'll be lootable. Not the path that leads up to Strom, but the road that runs past it.

Good luck

confirmed, you have to wait till hes on the road that connects to the road leading to stromguarde in order to be able to loot him. even relogging didnt work for me when i killed him any sooner.

Ok, I just had a conversation with a GM regarding Valorcall...

He said to kill the bodyguards first, then kill Valorcall, OR you can wait for one of the bodyguard's body's to disappear in order to loot Valorcall.

Honestly, I don't know if either of these options will work. I killed Valorcall on the road to Stromgarde, logged out and back in and was able to loot the body. /shrug

Still bugged as of today. Unable to loot, or difficult looting at best. To confirm what was said above, killing the guards first, wait a few then kill valorcall. Let one guard despawn then loot valorcall.

I couldn't loot either at first, even after logging in and out twice. However, the mob eventually became lootable before it despawned. I would definitely continue to try looting before resorting to killing him and his buddies a second time!

I was very lucky with this one, a passing blood elf lured them away, I got Valor with a fireblast then killed him while the guards were chasing the elf.

Soloed as lvl 34 shadow priest. It's a faceroll with psychic scream and some dots. Had to use a mana pot since my mana regen sucks after the spirit nerf, but oh well. Killed the adds first and then him (on the road), didn't notice any problem at all with looting.

Soloable as a 34 druid in bear form with that extra Herbalism heal, just make sure to focus Valorcall and interrupt his heals. He heals himself and his buddies.

I did the log out, wait for the body guards to vanish, and did it out side of Strom. 2nd attempt got it by looting the body during combat.

Soloed as a level 33 BM hunter with some decent BoA gear and a turtle pet.

The thing that sucks is the fact that he's basically a paladin. I started off by popping AotH and both Blood Fury (orc racial) and Rapid Fire. I went to town on him and right when he was about to die, he healed to full hp. I got him down again and he turned on Divine Shield, so I managed to kill one of his adds while he was immune. Then, divine shield went down and he was back at full health and I managed to knock him out before he could heal again.

I also had an add on me almost the whole time. They don't seem to hit very hard.

Good luck.

It messed up on me twice too, reloading ui, logging out and in.. nothing helped. Actually, rather typically, I got killed by some level ? alliance during my /reloadui - be wary of that one ;)

Simple solution.. kill him first, loot during combat.

I did however still have the same looting problem trying to loot from the bodyguards afterwards, but at least I had the important loot :)

Had a few problems with this questy myself, and i think i have figured out what is wrong with it... sorta...

Saw them on the map, had a friend run by and agro the group then run off...

Once my buddy no longer had agro i went and killed the group, couldnt loot them but my friend could...

Tried the same thing again but after killing them i waited about 3 minutes and looted them just fine...

Then i killed them after a respawn and was able to loot that time with no problems...

Hope that helps a bit...

I loved these quests in hammerfall when it was Elite. Now its boring and just another easy grind. The cavalarly leader now was *!@# easy, the whole group went down with 3-4 arcane blasts (w/ frost nova).

Found him on the road directly north of that circle with the elementals, I'm 80 doing Loremaster, so all 3 of them went down with 1 swing, but had no loot issues.

Horde side perspective:

As larkspur states, you can find him on the road. I was lucky enough to find him near Refuge Point, getting ganked by the troop of Undead NPC's that patrol the road. I helped them out, sighting him first because I didn't want to chance them killing him before I could get credit. Then I finished off the other 2 NPC's with him. The Undead ran off. I ran over and looted the corpses.

Ive just had the same loot issue on this quest but it could be a bug from the previous quest in the chain, after I handed in 'Sigil of Thoradin' I had a sigil fragment in my bags, didn't think anything of it.
When I came to loot Valorcall for this quest I kept getting permission denied etc and couldnt loot him, however I then deleted the 'sigil fragment' and immediately he was lootable.

If you can't loot the sigil try clicking your portrait and resetting all instances, worked for me

I just did this quest with my druid and I encountered the looting problem as well. After killing Valorcall and his guards three times and not being able to loot I submitted a ticket. I went ahead and engagged them a fourth time on the main road close to the road to stormgarde and was unable to loot again, but I walked a fair distance away and came back and it allowed me to loot the corpses. The corpses were on the main road just before the path into stormgarde, and I walked down the main road towards hammerfall till just a few steps past the first ""Stonehenge"" loking gateway and walked back to the corpses. When I came back I was able to loot them all!

HUNTERS!

Put your pet on passive, kill Valorcall, then feign death.
The other two will get on their horses and vanish.
Then the corpse is lootable.
