The Forging of Quel'Serrar

You must get Onyxia to breathe fire on the Unfired Ancient Blade. Once this is done, pick up the now Heated Ancient Blade. Be warned, a Heated Ancient Blade will not remain heated forever - time is of the essence.

The last step before returning to me is to slay the beast and drive the Heated Ancient Blade into her corpse.

Do this and Quel'Serrar will be yours.
Treated Ancient Blade
Provided Item:
Unfired Ancient Blade

Description

Take the unfired ancient blade to the lair of Onyxia and engage her in battle.

Some trickery must be utilized for the heating of the blade. While in combat, she will surely try to incinerate you with her fiery breath. You must plant the unfired ancient blade nearby and hope that the fiery breath heats the blade. If you live beyond this, pick up the now heated ancient blade and finish off the dragon.

Plunge the heated ancient blade into her smoldering corpse to fashion the treated ancient blade.

Reward

You will receive:
Quel'Serrar

Progress

Perhaps one day, another will wield the prismatic blade.

Completion

<Lydros murmurs something unintelligible.>

As promised, <class>, the blade of Quel'Serrar.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 995 experience (59 70 at max. level)
  • 200 Reputation with Shen'dralar

More instructions here:

Basically, while fighting Onyxia, ""drop"" the sword between the MT and Onyxia and let her breath on it. After she breaths on it and its heated, you have 20 minutes to kill Onyxia (so don't drop the sword until she is around 10%).

After, loot the Treated Ancient Blade from her corpse.

If you fail, you need to ""fail the quest"" and go back to DM to get it again.

BTW:
-Put Sword Down
-Have her ""breath on it"" so it becomes heating.
-Pick it up (Bit of a pain with the fears)
-After she dies, click on her body then ""use"" the sword.

In the heat of the moment you may get excited in phase 3 of Onyxia about placing down your sword, but keep in mind, she can still breath on/and own you. If you don't get a battle res before she's dead then you're waiting another reset.

10% - 15% is the perfect time to run in and drop the sword at the feet of the MT. Make sure you let your MT and raid leader know that you are going to do this in advance though :)

Once she is dead, grab the sword and drive it into her before the 25 min timer is up. Once you do this, you can take your time in returning it to the DM Library. (Some people thing you need to get back to DM within the 25 min - this is not true, you can take a long as you like)

Be careful. the single-use quest item works anywhere else, and not just in the lair :( Clicked on this while putting item on taskbar ready for trip to the lair. Back to Dire Maul for another /sob :(
... Be careful, because ""Place on the dirty floor next to a Dalaran postbox"" doesn't have quite the same epic questline ring to it as ""Place under the flaming breath of Onyxia""
