One of the bosses of Stormwind. Serves as the protector to King Anduin Wrynn.

Notes: Possesses a cleaving attack, as well as an AoE stun. High survivability, and a location close to the Stormwind battlemasters make him a less-than ideal target for horde looking to kill a city leader.

This guy is a @#$%ing beast. Who needs an army for https://www.wowhead.com/classic/quest=3835 when you have a living god?

This guy is able to solo about 20 level 60 elite dragons in the alliance onyxia key quest. When not on that quest, he is surrounded by dozens of level 55 nonelite guards (not to mention all the alliance players who are just a tram ride away). It would take at least 2 full raid groups for the horde to even think of fighting this monster.

He is a paladin-type mob. He has an AOE hammer of justice, a pally-type shield and he can heal himself to full health with a single spell (though he doesn't cast this very often). He also summons level 55 nonelite guards (in addition to Stormwind Keep's regular defenders) once every minute or so to protect him. Oh, and did I mention that if you get him to 10% health, he shields and hearths away, making him impossible to kill? (Okay, I was joking about that last part).

He was beefed up for the exact reason he far too easily took aggro off the groups doing Onyxia quests and died, effectively losing you the quest.

In his current incarnation, killing him is definately not impossible but extremely hard. Most importantly because he can hammer of justice and then throw off an instant follow-up cleave hitting for more than, as far as I could tell, 6000 damage on the super-armored Elite Guards. Even with a host of good healers and an MC geared MT the chance of him instantly killing the aggro holder is just very big should he get a crit or an especially lucky combo off, and that spells instant death for a raid that has already laid down a fair amount of damage.

I am sure it is doable, though. Broodlord Lashlayer could probably wipe the floor with him, so your friendly neighborhood super guild on any server shouldn't have any trouble if they bothered.

How much hp does this dude have? 500,000 or something like that?

评论来自 Thottbot

i know that a 2k heal doesn't even register as 1% of his life

评论来自 Thottbot

what if you plan like a thing with a friend, at the same time as the boss is fighting the onyxia moobs the horde jump in and help the dargons to kill the boss, could be a plan..

评论来自 Thottbot

Ya i gusse that could be a good idea.........but then again if he can wipe the floor with 20 million of those guys then im sure he could probaly do it with some horde thrown in on the side

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.

Actually he is iirc the son or grandson of a certain lady ? Fordragon which you could have playing in... Warcraft III ?

Not sure about her name or which Warcraft game it was... but he's a decendant from a Warcraft storyline npc.

评论来自 Thottbot

after watching him kill many many dragons while waiting for bg ques, ive noticed he has several main attacks:

aoe hammer of justice (same duration as a palys- 6sec) but he uses it around every 30 sec or so.

aoe cleave- this and his auto-attack are his most used attacks, according to my observations.

sunder armor- i might be off but 5x = equalled about 4-5k armor sundered

shield wall- similar to a warrior's but this he WILL use every 30 secs, which is unbelievable.

i also heared he has divine shield and lay on hands but since his hp never went below 85% or so, i guess he never needed to use a heal.

The horde raided Stormwind EXACTLY when the Windsor Event was triggered. I died just as they got to the keep but I think they had to fight BOTH Onyxia and Bolvar. I didn't get to see any of it, though =S by the time I rezzed, they were all gone and bolvar was in his old potision again.

评论来自 Thottbot

I found him quite literally 2 minutes ago, dead center of the keep.

Someone had just completed the quest that summons onyxia.

评论来自 Thottbot

With the help of certain mods, I can check how much mana a person has. One day when I was waiting for BG, I noticed that Bolvar had 52k mana. I was kinda surprised and awed as well. When I watch Bolvar take out those 8-10 elite dragons, he would usually end off at about 88-90% hp.

Now after patch 2.0.1 Bolvar has a little (by our standards a whole mana pool) more mana than 67k. Also, when killing the dragons, he doesnt go below 98%, and barely touches the 99%.

I'm guessing since the level cap will be raised to 70, they decided to raise the levels of all the city leaders as they did the guards.

i was going into the castle one day and then i somehow got his ret aura with my devotion aura so i looked around at some people and they also got his aura....not really sure how but it doesnt seem to happen anymore

And got this response:

Highlord Bolvar Fordragons respawn timer has changed with the last patch and may have affected The Great Masquarade quest. They are working as intended.

So sit and wait for him to respawn I suppose! :/

评论来自 Allakhazam

For the Horde: Bolvar really isn't that tough. Have some mages deal with periodic guard zergs, and just have DPS burn him down. 30-40 people are required, though 20 people probably could take him if he was by himself. The additionals will be necessary to ensure he goes down before the Alliance can intervene, as well as holding off the early arrivals.

Tanking is easy. He has an AOE Hammer of Justice for a 3-second stun, a 25-point Thorns effect, and he cleaves. He'll also shield wall periodically.

So far I've seen him burned down to 0% before the Alliance can come over from Ironforge to respond several times now.

Apparently, Fordragon is bugged. He's been randomly despawning regardless of quest completion... for some reason, I suppose. As of 28 April 05, Blizz promises to fix him 'next patch'... so best of luck trying to get your keys until mid-june.

does he drop anythin?

评论来自 Allakhazam

You fools... You can't kill him not while there are other players around.

I had my orc hunter kill the kid though.

评论来自 Allakhazam

how much honor do you get of a leader estimated?

评论来自 Allakhazam

Until the recent fix; Bolvar's respawn timer was on a 5-6hour timer instead of the intended 5-6 minute. It's been fixed in the recent patch. And for all those looking to do The Great Masquerade quest, you can solo it if you do it right. Once Onyxia shows up, just stand at the back and pull the dragon guards to the front entrance, but not too far or you'll fail the quest. If you're a paladin then Divine Shield once you have aggro, Vanish if you're a rogue, feign death if you're a hunter and for all other classes...just lead them towards Bolvar so he takes the aggro and pray you don't die. If you do die, don't release or you'll fail the quest. Bolvar can kill all the dragons himself and still be at 30% if you pulled properly (the keep guards will spawn and attack the dragons)

hope this helps

评论来自 Allakhazam

Yo don't need to pull anything. Those guards that will be transfromed into dragons will just go for bolvar, and you can just sit back (in the same room) and watch the fight.

We tried to return Onyxia's head.. waited for him to spawn for an hour or so. Nothing.

评论来自 Allakhazam

why does he get stuck in his fighting stance sometimes?

评论来自 Allakhazam

Where the hell does he hide? Can't find him in the castle and nowhere else too.

评论来自 Allakhazam

Maybe anyone knows what this guy wears ? items name ?

评论来自 Allakhazam

"I had my orc hunter kill the kid though."

How can it be when he is "Invalid Target" marked when horde tried to attack the king (lvl5)? :P

评论来自 TerribleAtGames

What is Bolvar's respawn rate? He never spawns, and people have been doing doomed attempts of The Great Masquerade the whole evening.
