Does anyone know if he is important to warcraft lore at all? I just don't understand why he is the Stormwind boss because until WoW we've never even heard of him, he was just kind of thrown in.

what lvl is he?

Comentado por 131539

MM killed him on the bugged ptr with item stat stacking, took 3 120k lightning bolts to kill him.

Could just be the ptr, but he most definately had more than 55k hp.

Screenshotted, put in screenshots, dropped 70g.

Found this in some old patchnotes listing the change of Stormwind leader for whatever reason..

1.41 Patchnotes:-

Archbishop Benedictus staged a temporary coup, and has taken the title of NPC leader of Stormwind City from Highlord Bolvar! Horde seeking to take out the leader of Stormwind should focus their efforts on Archbishop Benedictus for the duration. These changes will remain until the next content patch, when Highlord Bolvar reclaims his rightful throne:

Highlord Bolvar should be respawning between 5 and 8 minutes.
Archbishop Benedictus should be respawning every 2 hours.
Bolvar will give no contribution points.
Archbishop Benedictus will give 15,000 contribution points.

He is nearly exactly the same height as a male Night Elf, hair and/or hats not inculded.

He is no longer a boss now. They recently changed him to a 60 elite, but he still has a ton of health.

Comentado por Zmic

Possibly reference to "Pope Benedict"?

Comentado por 250222

Since they changed him from a boss to a level 60 elite, I've seen Horde hiding under the cathedral and farming him every respawn. He can easily be killed solo and his respawn timer is about 10 minutes. Good way for farming some easy gold if you have nothing else to do.

Comentado por 153653

Why did they change him to a 60 elite ? As I know all faction cities have 2 bosses...

Comentado por AngryBiscuit

Don't forget, Jaina Proudmoore is tecnically a human boss, despite that fact that she can be 10-manned.

http://www.wowwiki.com/Archbishop_Benedictus

Archbishop Benedictus (formerly Jarl, surname unknown) is the leader if the Church of the Holy Light based out of Cathedral of Light in the city of Stormwind.

The current archbishop is a middle-aged man named Jarl, though following Church tradition he gave up his birth name when he was elected to this high position, and adopted a new, holy name.

In his youth, he was the younger son of a wealthy Lordaeron merchant, and was raised to join the family business. He found religion instead, discovering the Holy Light after meeting an old traveler one night and almost dying when a pack of mercenaries attacked them both. After recovering, Jarl petitioned to join the Church, and was accepted immediately. The kindly Jarl was the student of Lordaeron's religious leader, Archbishop Alonsus Faol. Jarl spent many years learning from his pious master. He rose quickly to the rank of senior priest, and had charge of a large town in Lordaeron when the Scourge appeared. Jarl did his best to evacuate his parishioners and then joined them in their flight to Azeroth. The Church settled him in a town there, but soon promoted him to Stormwind City instead. While there, he helped the Church of Light construct its most striking monument: the Cathedral of Light in Stormwind. He was being considered for promotion to bishop when Archbishop Faol died, and the council chose to elevate him to archbishop instead.The newly named Benedictus took charge of the Church and swore to continue the good work his mentor had begun so many years before.

That is basicly his whole history. He is a minor character, but I thought his backround was pretty interesting

Upgraded to a boss again with a new gear set in Cataclysm. He has 54.9 million hitpoints and all damage increased. Screenshot submitted.

WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!

It is uncovered, that Archbishop Benedictus is a member of the Twilight Cult, and so he betrayed the Alliance.

Proof: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D5FDFygrrJE&feature=player_embedded

Edit: The video contains the voices of Thrall too. The Varian soundfiles starts at 1:03

Patch 4.0.1 edit: He has been empowered, he appears to be strong as a battlemaster. 505k HP, and moderate damage with smite (about 1.2-2k on my water elemental).

To note is his Holy Explosion, i think it deals quite high amount of damage.

EDIT: He is soloable, his holy barrier's still a level 60 one.

As a mage:
He can be soloed, but requires some discipline. I'm talking for frost, but i think arcane could be done anyway. The key is speed: no allies should interfere. Draw him to a room so that players wont notice immediatly where you are. Despite the time, his high health is a problem aswell. Be sure to fight him and use Deep Freeze every time you can, but don't waste cold snap as of now. Use Icy Veins at the starting, if needed. As soon as you reach about 60% HP, cast mirror image, take your distances (because of Holy Explosion) and use evocation to heal yourself. Keep fighting him, he shouldn't last much longer. Keep pet and frost barrier always up. Should you require, use invisibility and let pet attack him, but don't make the elemental die (or dismiss him if alliance joins the battle and run away).

Arcane could be used aswell (?): Mirror image + arcane power + arcane blast spam.

Now with awesome hat.

Comentado por 153653

Correct, now he got 55 million hp which can't be 5 or 10 maned, you need a lot more to down him. On my server Ravencrest Stormwind is the city with most players so even is hordes is trying to kill him ( I dont see the reason because he does not gives any achi or something) many alliance will aid because of: 1. Fyling mount, if you fly from Trade District you are at the Cathedral in max 10 seconds, 2. City defender achi. 3. Just killing stuff is fun

Comentado por StaticLgtBrngr

This new version of him hits for 30k as well, I'm guessing that killing him now will get you a faction leader honour kill though I cannot confirm this.

Comentado por swepty

Ah this guy is gunna get interesting soon ^.^ huge twist.... I have a feeling that he isn't going to be so easy to beat as all the comments describe.... but i don't think im going to post to many spoilers about an npc who is soon to become epic...

He is also the Twilight father as revealed in the new novel...and honestly if your looking up benedictus you probably already know this

Comentado por Martacus

I bet that he will be a boss in the new 4.3 Deathwing raid instance under the guise of "The Twighlight Father"

Should be interesting...

Comentado por 634937

Kind of funny how Blizzard has revealed his true side yet he is still hanging out in Stormwind with players unable to do anything to him. Shouldn't he at least be moved? I mean, I know the faction leaders hasn't found out yet, but still

Why have people brought it upon themselves to downrate half these comments?

It's as if the fact that the Warcraft version of the Pope, one of the key spiritual priest leaders in the game, is one of Deathwings right-hand men and leader of the Twilight Cult is both irrelivant and un-intresting...

Or a bunch of 12 year olds want thier WoWhead Achis for rating comments...

In patch 4.3 he'll be a boss in the upcoming heroic "Hour of Twilight"

Taken from the dungeon journal:

Archbishop Benedictus is the revered leader of the Church of the Holy Light. For years, his wise guidance has been instrumental in seeing humanity through bleak times. Yet beneath his apparent benevolence lies the shocking truth that Benedictus has pledged himself to the eradication of all life on Azeroth through the agency of his dark master... Deathwing.

Comentado por 838878

His name means 'Blessed be' which is quite ironic since he serves Deathwing.

Comentado por skumbananer

Just because he joins the Twilight Hammer does not mean that he has to be insane, evil or corrupted. Maybe he sees Deathwing as more of a purger/cleanser of the world than a destroyer. many Faiths of today believe in Armageddon/Ragnarrök etc. Why wouldnt a follower of the light believe that his world needs a good cleansing, and embrace Deathwing as a incarnation of the Light?

I'm getting tired of killing corrupted guys that say I'd do the same if only I've seen what they've seen.

Anyone know if it's possible to get his hat?

Comentado por 9mmx19

You can talk to Bispo Palhares about Benedictus' disappearance but he doesnt believe you when you tell him he's a "bad guy."

Comentado por arkhi

For RPers: The shoulders he wear is the same model as Omoplatas de Runatrama. Unfortunately, there is no color that is the same as the Archbishops. However, I personally found Ombreiras de Teia Diáfana to be just as suitable as this is what the femal Priest Trainer in the altar wears. He wears Veste de Runatrama as a robe.

Arcebispo Benedictus
