Eeeeek, rats!

Comment by Tamika

each time Lumbering Oaf uses his charge ability on a player, random number of Mine Rats spawn around the lumber pile which the player was smashed into. Keep the boss alive until you kill at least 20 of them (4-5 charges should be enough IMO).

Comment by Adopi

Got this one today, the rats spawn near the broken teleporter and other places throughout..but as tank that's where I noticed them. Keep boss alive long enough to allow each dps and healer that needs the achievement time to run back to the spawn area to kill the rats they need. I personally will track the achievement while doing it to make sure I'm on target, otherwise easy achievement in the end.

Comment by Grogal

Very easy at lvl 90. Did this as a prot warrior.
Just use auto attack untill he does a charge (each charge spawns about 7 rats - aoe those each time) Just do this 3 times and that should be enough to kill 20 rats in 1 encounter and get the achievement.
Finish the boss and up to the next fight

Comment by Moonley

Here is what you do at 90:

You need Lumbering Oaf ALIVE - he is the one who spawns the rats!

Only use Auto attacks until you have killed enough rats. Should you have problems with keeping him alive, you can run just outside the door where you came from, and the encounter will reset.

NOTE that you dont need 20 rats killed in a single fight - you can reset the fight infinitely until you have it.

Impossible to do cause is bugged. When the lumbering oaf smash you in the wall nothing spawn.

Comment by Tigerarmy666

Because it hasnt been said and some people might not be aware, these are critters. Not adds that spawn. They're not visible behind the log sometimes so its best to use a /tar mine rat macro.
