Val'anyr - Hammer of the Ancient Kings

A new legendary weapon has been added to the game with Ulduar: Val'anyr, Hammer of the Ancient Kings.

The mace itself doesn't drop from any boss, players can rebuild it through an Atiesh-like questline started by the Shattered Fragments of Val'anyr dropped by most of the bosses in Ulduar-25. You will need 30 Fragments to reforge the Hammer of Ancient Kings, just like the quest item you can drop Fragment of Val'anyr from most of the bosses in the 25-man version of the instance.

Reforging the Mace

This is done during the fight against Yogg-Saron (the final boss of the instance) through the Val'anyr Hammer of Ancient Kings quest.

Quests

There are two quests related to the Val'anyr, the first one is Ancient History started by the Shattered Fragments of Val'anyr, followed by Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings.

Ancient History

Bring the Shattered Fragments of Val'anyr to the Archivum Console in the Archivum in Ulduar.

Description
The pieces fit together to form an elegant hammer. Its construction appears to be at least partially Titan in nature. The console inside the Archivum might have some information regarding this artifact.

Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings

Throw the Shattered Pieces of Val'anyr into Yogg-Saron's maw while he's casting Deafening Roar and defeat Yogg-Saron and recover the Reforged Hammer of Ancient Kings.

This can only be completed in Heroic mode and only if at least one Ulduar Watcher is not assisting you.

Description
The Archivum Console has hinted at a possible way to rebind the fragments of Val'anyr: you must get the fragments inside the physical form of the being known as Yogg-Saron.

It sounds like a long shot, but for an artifact of such power you think the risk might just be worth it.
