Got off my lazy ass to write this thing
=================
WHO CARES?
=================
A lot of people might say, "Who cares? It's one stupid
item." Where I come from, we spend all day trying to
find every single secret in a game. Doesn't matter how
retarded it may be, if it can be done, it should be
done. Just to spite the programmer who didn't think
any one would take the time to care.
This FAQ is also here for the few people who would
refuse to maphack or use codes to reveal all the places
on the map.
I'm also using this as a little excersize to make a FAQ
with pictures because I'm really interested in making
PDF based strategy guides so kids don't have to shell
out 15$ for some printed piece of crap that never
updates.
=================
PRETEXT
=================
The optional quest to find the fragments of the
shadow orb is in the Night Elf campaign, the mission
titled "The Tomb of Sargeras"
Once you complete the quest, you'll have the Shadow
Orb +10 which increases the wearer's attack damage by
10, armor by 3, and grants enhanced hit point
regeneration.
The warden will have this for as long as you have her,
then it will eventually be passed on as the story
progresses. It is still unclear wether or not the orb
can be passed to Illidan.
=================
FRAGMENT 1
=================
There's a statue of a huntress that you'll come across.
Past that, there will be two staircases you can walk up.
(1)From the top of the lower stair case you'll be able
to see a ledge with a rune. (2)Just Blink over to that
ledge. Keep going down that path until it comes to an
end. (3)From the end of that path you'll see another
ledge straight across that you can Blink to. (4)At the
far end of that ledge you'll find a piece of the orb.

=================
FRAGMENT 2
=================
Right after you save the Druids of the Claw, enter the
area they were in. (1)Directly to the left and right
there are rocks inbetween the temple walls and the
surronding caves. Blink across the left set of rocks.
Keep exploring down that path as far as it goes. (2)It
curves around and you'll find another piece of the orb.

=================
FRAGMENT 3
=================
After you climb the three staircases that are near the
huntress statue, (1)there is a piece of the floor that is
glowing. Step on that piece of floor with the Warden.
It will open a door. The door is located to the south of
the top of the first staircase. (2)In that room Blink
to the platform in the middle, then Blink to the ledge on
the left. (3)There will be a piece of the orb.

pass. Blink to the rune and then follow that path to the

room. The orb fragmment is there.

=================
FRAGMENT 5
=================
You'll be going through the caves for a little while.
Eventually in the north west most part of the map
you'll be able to go up a hill and fight a giant turtle.
(1)If you bring the Warden to the south west most part of
that ledge you should be able to see a rune. Blink to
that area and there will be a number of barrels and
crates. The piece of the orb will be there.

FRAGMENT 6
=================
Just south of the hill where you fought the giant turtle
I just spoke of in the previous entry, (1)you'll find a
tree. Use a huntress owl sentinel on that tree. It will
reveal a ledge to the south east that you can Blink up
to. (2)There will be a piece of the orb.

FRAGMENT 7
=================
As you head eastwards and into the level, you'll come
across another tree. Use another huntress owl sentinel
on that tree. (1)It will reveal an area behind the wall
that you can Blink to. Kill the turle in that area to
recieve another piece of the orb.

After you get back into the temple, there will be an
area to the north that you will enter and find a (1)ledge
overlooking a flooded floor. Blink down to the floor and
head north. (2)There will be a ramp to the right that
leads to an area. When you walk up there, it will reveal
an area to the left with a rune. (3)Go back to the
flooded floor and Blink up there and there will be
another piece of the orb.

When you enter there will be a path leading north and

F.A.Q.s
=================
This is traditionally the area where I answer frequently
asked questions reguarding my guide. But I find it pretty
hard to believe there will be any questions seeing as how
I'm not only describing where this stuff is, but giving
you pictures as well.
If you have any questions, please make sure you've read
this guide very closely before asking me.

I don't have a version of frozen throne that I can play
with online...*cough*thanks edonkey2000*cough*. Hey, I'm
poor. Gimme a break. So, I figured I'd try to help out
the community in the meantime while I'm waiting to get
a used copy where I work so I can get it at a deep
discount.
Read the F.A.Q.s section before asking me any questions
reguarding this guide. For general Warcraft3 questions,
please bother someone else.
