-'''Thori'dal, the Stars' Fury''' is the name of a {{quality|legendary}} [[bow]] that drops from [[Kil'jaeden (tactics)|Kil'jaeden]], who is the last boss of the [[Sunwell Plateau]] 25-man raid instance. The name ''Thori'dal'' was first seen in the 2.4 PTR patch notes.<ref>[[Patch 2.4.0|Thori'dal mentioned by name in Patch 2.4 notes]]</ref> This bow is currently the highest dps (level 70) weapon in game, excluding wands.
-== Notes ==
-Thori'dal generates magical arrows when the bow string is drawn, thus eliminating the need for the hunter to carry ammo. Attempting to add ammunition to the paper doll slot Thori'dal will not add extra DPS, and instead produces an error message "Ammo slot full." The high DPS of this bow is most likely the result of this lack of need for arrows since there will be no +damage added from such. The contemporary top arrow (in Burning Crusade) was {{loot|epic|Timeless Arrow}} with a +53.0 bonus and this gives Thori'dal a comparative DPS of 109.8 - presumably. However, due to the nature of [[Steady Shot]], this weapon vastly increases hunter DPS, in spite of having comparable DPS to {{loot|epic|Golden Bow of Quel'Thalas}} with {{loot|epic|Timeless Arrow|Timeless Arrows}}.
-Originally, Thori'dal had a +15% attack speed effect not stacking with ammo quivers or pouches, allowing the hunter to carry a fourth normal bag. This was removed in [[Patch 3.1.0]] as ammo bags no longer grant [[haste]].
-Although Thori'dal was obviously added for [[hunters]], it is not limited to them and may be equiped by any class that can train to use bows. As of ''[[Wrath of the Lich King]]'', it is the highest level, permanent legendary weapon available to hunters: the only other available weapon that is legendary ''and'' permanent is {{item|Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker}}.
-==Speculation==
-{{Speculation}}
-There has been some debate in the roleplaying community and generally with those interested in [[lore]], about who this bow belonged to and what makes it a legendary quality item, beside the stats of course. Some believe it's the bow of [[Alleria Windrunner]], judging by the model of the weapon which is highly reminiscent of High elven style, the yellow description it has and other loot Kil'Jaeden drops - among them is [[Coif of Alleria]].
-It could also be a weapon of some forgotten Night Elf hero from the [[War of the Ancients]], seeing as some other drops from the encounter date that far back. It is also speculated that the bow is actually a manifestation of the Sunwell's energy, that is suggested from its name, its quote, and the ability to generate arrows when the string is drawn.
-So far the bow has no confirmed lore behind it.
