Funny, Altruis looks just like Illidan with his two glaives :P

Commento di Split

For me, he is located at: 27, 43

Commento di BobTheGreat

Anyone know who this Altruis guy is, he seems like Illidan.

Just in case people are curious about it: Talking to this guy makes him sheath his weapons for a couple moments, and since they're double-bladed weapons it apparently lets you see how this type of weapon looks when not being used.

They fit over the back and cross when dual wielded. Most of the blade sheaths way over your head, so it will be very obvious that you have it when walking around town and such.

(As far as I know just about every npc that has these weapons has them out their hands, so I really never saw them like this until I spoke to this npc, and the only possible way to even get this sort of weapon is currently an unconfirmed drop from Illidan. http://www.wowhead.com/?item=32837)

Should demon hunters ever become a class option Altruis would almost certainly be part of whatever quests there would be to become one.

In performing quests for him, he speaks much about his desire: to destroy demons, and to destroy demon hunters who became what they are for power (such as Illidan's pupils at the black temple). He also reveals that he was once a student of Illidan's before his corruption, he also recognizes that the blood elves also have the potential to become demon hunters both because of their arcane affinity and that there would be more support for demon hunters among the blood elves than night elves.

As further testament to Blizzard's keen ability to play with words, Altruis' name is most likely taken from the word altruism, which means "unselfish concern for the needs or interests of others, providing gratification vicariously or from their responses". Seems like Altruis's mission statement to me...

This is the laziest demon hunter ever.

Stairway to Heaven reference... =D

Talk about him all you want. If I ever met a guy named who never wore a shirt and carried two huge warglaives around while blindfolded and rode a dragon, spent his time hunting demons, and he called himself "Altruis the Sufferer" I wouldn't mess with him. You know this guy listens to Slayer.

He sounds like a lazy emo to me; and how did he get to be a demon hunter anyways?

Of the 5 that Illidan trained, three died, one went mad, and one passed.

So where does lazy-arse here fit in

Was he the one that turned up late, perchance?

Commento di boiledelephant

When I first saw him, I thought he was a parodic Illidan impersonator (kinda like those idiots you get dressing up as Jack Sparrow in cities). He looks in every way like a tacky knock-off, even down to his name with the title.

His being a trained demonhunter explains it somewhat. But it also makes you wonder. Is this brown-pants, no-shirt-and-twin-warglaives thing some kind of dress code? Are you not allowed to wear a shirt if you hunt demons for a living?

Because I'd certainly want to.

6.9k hp.

I expected an elite demon hunter to have a reasonable amount of hp.
I know it may seem pointless because he's unattackable, but a 7k hp guy doesn't look very "powerful". Not really.
And consider that hes dragon (http://www.wowhead.com/?npc=18418#comments) has almost 3.5 millions.

27.43 easy to see thinking that he got a big drake at his left hand

QFT but yeah im hoping that they develop the demon hunter lore a bit more in a later expansion (twisting nether ftw?)

Commento di entropicdragon

Altruis speaks (spoiler alert!)

What do you see when you look to the west, mortal?

I see twisted steel and smell sundered earth.

Do you know what I see? A precursor to invasion.

Aye, the master was wise in sealing the portals but has since lost his... how shall I put this? The master has lost his focus. Yes... Focus.

With this loss, the Legion has seized opportunity. They seep out now, growing in number day by day.

Legion?

The Burning Legion. Demons. I see them as clearly as you can see your own hand in front of your face. That is, I used to be able to see them clearly.

With the Legion's return come new machinations. Under normal circumstances, I am able to sense the prescence of a demon from a thousand paces.

<Altruis grimaces.>

And now?

They elude me. I cannot see past their defenses. They have put in place wards to prevent detection.

<Altruis points westward.>

They fear us because they know we fear nothing. The cost for such power is great, the sacrifices many.

How do you see them now?

<Altruis turns to face you and smiles.>

I do not.

<Altruis points to his steed, Nethrandamus.>

We must stop them before these forge camps are able to complete whatever it is they are building.

Forge camps?

That is what these structures that litter the landscape are called. The Legion have employed the mo'arg and gan'arg to build weapons of mass destruction at these mobile forge camps. Let us not find out what it is that they intend to build in Nagrand!

You will be my eyes. Your weapons will be my fury.

Commento di 381348

Is it me or does this guy look like Illidan Stormrage?

Commento di Forrtress

I strangely seem to think he looks like a Good version of Illidan,

minus the wings, he has the same weapon type, same blindfold, and same race (kinda)

anyone agree with me?

Commento di 662504

Is this brown-pants, no-shirt-and-twin-warglaives thing some kind of dress code? Are you not allowed to wear a shirt if you hunt demons for a living?

Because I'd certainly want to.

Being a female player I really like the no-shirt dress code on male night elves :-)

Anyway I think the lack of armour is a statement about demon hunters. Their power is not from some items they have, but from a strength within. The path of a demon hunter is a spiritual path.
In his various quest dialogues Altruis explains that a demon hunter's mind and heart make the difference between success and failure/ insanity/ corruption. Their not being geared (except for the weapons) is a symbol of this dependence on inner strength.

Now this is all my speculation. Might as well be the hot sun of Nagrand that made him put off his shirt. :-)

Best of buds with this guy.

Anyone Know what Glaives/Weapons he has?

Commento di Leiaza

Every time I speak to him he mounts me up on his drake anyway to stop this? I can't even get a chance to pick up the quest he gives

Commento di LoreFanatic

One of the things he says after the survey quest is that both camps have pit lord leaders. Apparently he didn't listen to our report well enough because Demos is a Man'ari Eredar.

Commento di badabaron

It should be noted to do all the quest he offers you will need to complete a couple quest in Shadowmoon Valley for either Larissa Sunstrike or Exarch Onaala.

Commento di DavalPrestor

His kilt appears to be made out of the Gambali Corazzati dell'Ardore skin, and his belt is from the same set. Not sure about his boots, though.

Commento di Kakapenka

Apparently changed names for legion to Altrius.

Commento di WeazelGames

LEGION SPOILER ALERT: Confirmed, Altruis the Sufferer is indeed right with you when you first enter the Vault of the Wardens

Commento di Deihjan

Does anyone know if his Outland model has been updated to fit with Legion demon hunter assets (horns, tattoos etc.)?

Seeing as he's one of the demon hunters you break out in the Vault of Wardens and has gotten some swanky horns and tattoos, it'd be a shame if his Outland-self wasn't as swanky looking.

Commento di Naniel

Who else came here to check what he did back in the Burning Crusade? :D

Commento di ZeroUm

Trivia: Altruis may be related to AltruisWoW, aka Executive Producer & Vice President, World of Warcraft, John Hight.

Commento di Mirades

there's a bug, always when you talk to him you get instantly put on his dragon for the inspection quest... so you can't read the lore text atm until it's fixed.
