Nostro's Compendium of Dragon Slaying

Nostro's Compendium of Dragon Slaying is a thick book full of writing that starts the quest chain to obtain the sword Quel'Serrar. Unfortunately, the text appears to be garbled.

This item drops from bosses in Dire Maul. The drop rate is very low.

==Notes and trivia==
* With the revamping of Onyxia's Lair this item is no longer obtainable to players. However, the Broodmother drops level 80 versions of the sword: Burnished Quel'Serrar in 25-man raid and Gleaming Quel'Serrar in 10-man raid.
* '...hide under a ledge or a bridge'...is referring to a fight in Everquest which a guild attempted to kill one of the bosses by hiding their Clerics under a bridge in order to avoid Area of Effect spells, and the guild was accused of hacking/exploiting and was promptly banned.
* The reference to 5-15 Clerics and 10–15 seconds refers to what is known as a 'CHRot' or 'Complete Heal Rotation'. Complete Heal, at the time, was a level 39 Cleric spell that was capable of healing anyone in the game to their full hit point value. The spell had a 10 second cast time, so Clerics were set up in a rotation to continuously be hitting the tank with a Complete Heal every .5–2 seconds so they would not die from a damage spike.
