Legacy of the Icebreaker

==Objectives==
Deal with Magnar Icebreaker.
*Speak with Hruthnir
*Deal with Magnar Icebreaker
*Take Odyn's portal back to Skyhold
==Description==
The greatest warrior should wield the greatest weapons. Long ago a great king, Magnar Icebreaker, wielded weapons crafted from a scale of the mightiest dragon in the land. He should be here, but he is not. Instead he languishes in his tomb.
His son, Hruthnir, is here. He will lead you to the tomb. If Magnar can be saved, do so. Either way, return with his weapons.
==Rewards==
==Progress==
You have done well. You will bring many victories to these Halls.
==Completion==
A great deed was done today. I have gained a mighty warrior, and you a powerful artifact.
==Gains==
*18,850 XP (level 100)
==Notes==
On accept:
:
Hruthnir is standing next to Aerylia. Speak with him.
:Odyn believes you are worthy to wield the Armaments of the Black Wyrm. I am here for Magnar Icebreaker. Let us both be successful, eh?
:
:
You and Hruthnir both automatically jump down towards the portal to Azeroth, with the player then smashing down from the sky into the soil of Shield's Rest, an island northeast of Stormheim.
===Stage 1: The Sealed Tomb===
:Find Magnar's tomb with Hruthnir.
*Find Magnar's Tomb
Hruthnir is standing a short distance down the path. On approach:
:
:
Hruthnir begins running down the path but is soon blocked by a cloud of dust. Suddenly, two Rattling Dead crawl up out of the ground and attack the two Valarjar.
:
By the time you kill the two skeletons, four more Rattling Dead have risen amidst another dust cloud further down the path.
:
:
Upon killing the second group of skeletons:
:
A large group of Rattling Dead are shambling about in front of the entrance to the Tomb of the Old Kings. However, as you and Hruthnir approach, fel flames begin to erupt around the skeletons' feet, and suddenly a group of Lesser Imps led by Pillik appear and kill the undead amidst a series of fel explosions.
:
===Stage 2: The Disturbance===
:Defeat the Legion forces.
*Defeat Pillik
:
Pillik has 537,000 health (at level 100). He mainly casts Fel Firebolts (interruptible) but will occasionally cast "Retreat!", teleporting a short distance away while also spawning more Lesser Imps.
:
:
:
Killing Pillik:
:
===Stage 3: Crypt Crawl===
:Find Magnar's resting place within the tomb.
*Find Magnar
:
Hruthnir walks over to the entrance of the Tomb of the Old Kings and pushes the doors open. Inside, lightning orbs called Swirling Storms are moving about while Reylar the Stormcaller is channeling storm magic. The Swirling Storms deal damage to anyone standing near them. While they have little health, they will regenerate a few seconds after being killed.
:
:
Aid Hruthnir in killing Reylar, at which point the Swirling Storms become permanently dormant and no longer deal damage.
Further down into the tomb, the hallway is taken up by a Windwall that pushes anyone who tries to stand in it back towards the direction of the entrance. The Windwall is maintained by three Spectral Windshapers — one in a southern alcove, one in a northern alcove and one at the western end of the hallway.
:
:
After some time:
:
Follow Hruthnir's advice and use Heroic Leap to reach the windshapers. After killing the southern and northern channelers, the Windwall is removed, allowing Hruthnir to run up to and attack the western Windshaper.
:
After killing the last Windshaper and reaching the western end of the hall, Hruthnir turns south to find a door sealed with two Swirling Storms.
:
:
Use Heroic Throw to destroy the lightning orbs. If the player does not do so for some time, Hruthnir will destroy the orbs himself.
:
===Stage 4: The Confrontation===
:Defend Hruthnir from Magnar's forces.
*Defend Hruthnir
Upon the orbs' destruction, the doors swing inward, opening the way into the Tomb of the Icebreaker. When the player follows Hruthnir down into the chamber, a cutscene begins.
:Magnar Icebreaker, Wielder of the Blackwyrm Armaments, is standing atop a flight of stairs, madly swinging his sword at the air.
:
:The cutscene ends.
Hruthnir runs a few yards further into the chamber, the walls of which are lined with alcoves housing dormant, ghostly vrykul.
:
:
:
Speak with Hruthnir to start the encounter.
:Are you ready to face Magnar with me, <name>?
:
Hruthnir runs forward another few yards into the middle of the tomb.
:
Magnar suddenly leaps down from his platform, landing in front of Hruthnir. He immediately becomes and starts attacking the Valarjar.
:
:
:Magnar knocks Hruthnir back towards the entrance to the chamber, but the Valarjar runs back up to his father and keeps fighting him.
:
:
:
:
Ghostly Icebreaker Champions and Icebreaker Tombguards begin to awaken from their alcoves and attack the player and Hruthnir.
:
:
Magnar leaps back up onto his platform, becoming unattackable as more guards gradually awaken. Two of the dormant vrykul are Spectral Windshapers, who travel halfway up the two stairs leading to Magnar's platform and begins casting a spell similar to the Windwall seen earlier to prevent the player from reaching Magnar.
Help Hruthnir kill all of the non-Windshaper vrykul to proceed to the next stage.
===Stage 5: The Greatest Warrior===
:Defeat Magnar Icebreaker.
*Defeat Magnar Icebreaker
Hruthnir runs up the western flight of stairs, killing the Windshaper along the way and then rushing to confront his father again. However, the Windwall-like spell persists, forcing you to use Heroic Leap to reach the platform.
:
:
:
Help Hruthnir bring Magnar to 1% health, at which point he turns and kneels in defeat.
:
:
:
:Magnar disappears.
===Final Stage: Armaments of the Black Wyrm===
:The sword and shield are yours, claim them.
*Take the Armaments
:
The Armaments have landed in the area between the two stairs. After looting and equipping them, a Val'kyr of Odyn appears next to a pillar of light that allows you to Jump to Skyhold. Return to the Great Mead Hall and speak to Odyn to complete the quest.
