If a character completes the quest before Wrath of the Lich King is released, the character will still receive the achievement. Source: Tigole.

Yes, you "can" three man it.

Given that you have the following:

two friends that can tank/dps/heal. (whatever you need in your group)
These friends should ideally be level 80 and not want any of the materials that you need.
And like I stated before, you may need your friends for multiple runs, especially if you're starting from scratch.

So if you have friends like that, then yes, this is a walk in the park, a slow one at that.

Ignore the fact that you can three-man Molten Core for the Bindings and the Eye.

So yes, I did actually ignore that fact.

but you need a companion to enter the instance

All you need is a raid group and your "companion" can be anywhere else.

True. I personally make a trial account, create a character, and then group with that. It's handy because i can simply "force close" WoW on the trial character (i.e. closing it manually, rather than using the "Exit game" option), and then the character will be disconnected, but i can still go into raid instances without issue. When the trial account expires, if i want to enter raids still, i simply create a new trial account, and do the same again. This way, i don't bother guildies, friends, and it's simple if i need to leave the raid group to quest, and then rejoin without bothering people.

I only really use it for soloing raids and bosses that i know i can manage, and there's no other real benefit other than what i mentioned here.

So yeah, I finished this quest as a druid today and didn't get the achieve. What the hell is this. I've even seen other druids with the achieve. : /

Awww just got the sword on my Priest and was expecting to get the achievement, hopefully they fix it soon.

I do see people were quoting to an outdated version of the achievement.Unfortunately it does require 'Wielder of the Thunderfury - wielding does mean equipping

now to wait that Shamans and Druids can use swords!

Classes who cant wield swords arent getting their achievements for obtaining a legendary sword...Ghastly, simply ghastly! Im sure there should be an achievement for those who complete it and use Thunderfury as a coat rack.

I made an account to share the following information posted by Ghost Crawler on 2010-06-25:

We aren't removing MC or BWL as of this writing. We aren't going out of our way to remove old legendaries. The only risk there in a case like Thunderfury is if we change a zone like Silithus so much that the quests become hard to keep intact.

http://blue.mmo-champion.com/t/25578319313/need-clarification-on-what-is-getting-changed/

So at this point neither party in this debate can say with absolute certainty players will or will not be allowed to obtain the materials for and craft Thunderfury.
