I pity the fool.

Kommentar von 167458

Obvious Mr. T reference.

Kommentar von devvvour

I pity the fool that won't do this achievment!

Kommentar von Belse

I guess it´s still unknown if you have to actually enter one of Naxxrama´s instances or just stand at the summoning stone to do this achievment. But since the minimap says Naxxramas I think you should be able to do it without actually enter an instance. So it´s still possible that you can do this achievment without being 80. I was a little worried about this myself untill I realised this. But we can´t be sure untill Love is in the air begins.

Kommentar von 296933

Has anyone got markers for the exact points we have to put it down or can we put it anywhere in the area..?
E.g The Arathi Basin Black Smith - do we put it in the graveyard, the hut, near the flag..?

Kommentar von Chiba

I guess as long as you're in the zone called "Blacksmith" it will count.

Kommentar von 133472

This macro will work properly, just tested with a vanity pet. You will need to hit the macro twice, however, it will not summon a 2nd love fool, and will prevent you from wasting a love fool if there's already one at your location.

/cleartarget
/tar Love Fool
/pity
/stopmacro
/use Love Fool

Kommentar von Sscorpio

You need enter both Naxxramas and Cavern of time : Culling of Stratholme to achieve these parts of the achievements.

Kommentar von Divyraen

I don't see anyone mentioning this. From what the achievement text says, I'd imagine it possible to get credit for the achievement without being the one who drops the Love Fool.

As long as someone in the raid/party drops down this Love Fool, you will be able to /pity it and get the credit.

Hell.. 25 people taking out their Love Fool isn't exactly a pleasant image.

Kommentar von mouseno4

No i wasted a love fool thinking along those lines. No you must be IN naxxramas for it to give credit. I spawned it right AT the portal and the stone.

You need to be in a raid group and on the other side of the portal.

Kommentar von 304451

The Love Fool is no other than Love Fool.

Kommentar von 289079

You HAVE to be inside Naxx to complete this achievement..

I tried twice outside, and it didn't count.
Once I went inside, It worked.

Kommentar von Amante

Do you have to do it yourself or can you /pity other peoples love fools?

Kommentar von 317558

Has anyone been able to confirm the minimum level to enter Naxx, and thus complete this achievement (and get the title)? I've seen conflicting information throughout the web.

Kommentar von Bauken

a very easy way to get the naxx part, just invite one person to your party and convert to a raid. you can then enter, even if the other person is on a different continent. trust me, it works. I partied with a lvl 3 orc hunter, converted to a raid and it let me in.

Kommentar von 233955

A note about the Gurubashi Arena part... You AND the dummy have to be in the Battle Ring part of the arena. It won't work if the dummy is on the ramp of the arena.

Kommentar von Seprest

Just got 5 in one, pretty nice, me and friend doing at same time btw.

Kommentar von Zeerus

There seems to be alot of confusion here reguarding the AB one.
Just enter an AB, run to the island (anywhere is fine, as long as txt shows up on your screen saying 'Blacksmith'), Drop the fool, /pity and you're done!
/afk or Stay the AB. :D

Kommentar von TomWolf

Arathi Basin - Drop inside the black smith in the middle of the battleground. (or around it, I find inside easier to get done if you just wanna do it and leave)
Culling of Stratholme - Take the portal from Dalaran (violet citadel, upper floor to the left). CoS is located directly south of the entrance to the lair. (south east of the lair) Just go in and drop it inside the entrance and then you can leave.
Winter Grasp - Easiest to do this is when the portal there is up in the portal room in dalaran. If you go there by mount, remember that it's a no-fly zone
Gurubashi Arena - This is in Stranglethorn Vale You can't get this outside the arena itself even though the minimap shows you as in the arena. Make sure the minimap sais "Battle Ring"
Naxxramas - You need to be in a raid group (can consist of only two people) and enter. For those that hasn't you need to go up under the flying building and into it.

Hope this helps someone.

Kommentar von 150990

Where is the Gurubashi Arena?

Kommentar von morgh

You need to be level 80 to enter Naxxramas.

So, again, it looks like Blizzard has made this title a level 80 title only.

That sucks but oh well, time to grind out the last 3 levels or wait until next year.

Kommentar von 250813

It's possible to stand on the front lip of the Gurubashi arena, in the area that's still out-of-PvP, and pity a Love Fool from there.

Arriving at the Gurubashi Arena, I saw an Alliance Gnome plunk down a Love Fool. Standing on the lip, I was able to click on the dummy at extreme range, and got the last pity I needed for the Achievement. We cheered each other and departed.

Kommentar von Gnak

In Stranglethorn Vale, half way between Booty Bay and Grom'Gol Base Camp

Kommentar von 236316

If you're like me and hate PvP, you can get swim down in the lake in AB. There's at least one spot to the southeast where the zone changes to 'blacksmith', and the love fool can be placed in water.

Kommentar von Hyle

It appears that for WG credit, you need to actually be in the zone while it is contested. I dropped two there last night while Alliance had the zone with ~57 minutes left. And didn't get credit

Kommentar von 191181

You do NOT need to go any deeper into Naxx than just on the other side of the portal. I've seen a few people saying you can drop it by the summoning stone and still get credit, but this is NOT true. I wasted a love fool that way.

Find someone to make a raid group with, go in, drop the fool, pitty and you're done.

Kommentar von 281428

Will I be able to complete this portion with my alts who are not level 80 yet? I would like to get my 72 going on the world events, but don't know if she can enter Naxx.

Kommentar von 70404

The love fool in the Gurubashi arena is Pepitoz mourning over his lost love Cellinedion.

This is a reference to a machinima, which was actually chosen by blizzard to be shown on the official site...

A link to the page it is on

A direct link to the video

So cut the original poster a bit of slack rather than down-rating his comment into obscurity..... ;)

Pepitoz is really quite a good machinima, showing that you don't need amazing video editing skills, professional voice actors or hundreds of hours of footage to create something worth watching.

Kommentar von 302767

if you have too bad gear for naxx like me. after wg or something go to naxx and set up the fool xD

Kommentar von 168184

Requires level 80 as far as I know, unless anyone lower then 80 can get into Naxx.

Time to start leveling.
Please reply if there is a way for a 77 to get this achievement.

Kommentar von Gob4

I joined a raid for wintergrasp, then flew to Naxx and completed the achievement,and made it back to Dalaran before the portal opened to wintergrasp. You just have to enter the portal, no need to advance into the instance.

Kommentar von Razzorblade

I haven't tried this, but can you still /pity and get credit if the love fool is dead by targeting the box? Seems like you should since its name doesn't change.

Kommentar von 21968

"Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena" is the pvp arena in Strangle Thorn Vale. Go into the pvp zone in the middle of it before popping the love fool.

Kommentar von 322184

how do you make a raid group? i dont see that in the list of options when i made a group

Kommentar von artkiller99

Just to sum up,
in order to get this achievment you HAVE to be 80. this is Blizz's way of getting people to be more active in the game by leveling faster. Elders achievment was similar due to one of the elders being in Gundrak, but the Elder would be accessed only in heroic mode.
Love fool, 3-5 can be obtained from the Gifts of Adoration. Yes, if someone puts a Love Foll down in the correct place, as many ppl as you want can /pity him and get the achievment, and no you dont have to be in the same group.
Remember that this is a Agro'er. so Watch were you put him down so that he wont get destroyed. or be quick enough to /pity him.
Regarding the instances and Raids, you HAVE to be INSIDE. being by the portal does not count! you will jsut waste a Love Fool

Hope this Clears some things up.

Kommentar von 287195

I walked into Naxx, dropped my fool, pitied him, and walked out. You don't need to go farther into the instance. I also did the same thing with AB's Blacksmith, The Gurubashi Arena, and The Culling of Stratholme. Oh, Wintergrasp has some hills on the outskirts that zone you in. It's an amazing thing; a priest with levitate. I just popped Levi and jumped. Didn't need to get killed or anything :D

Kommentar von wingman

For the wintergrasp one, I just did it then while the opposing faction owned it and the battle wasn't on. It wasn't in any significant location either, so you should be able to do it anywhere in the zone.

Kommentar von Milkzkrieg

My alt is level 63, and i would like to do this achiev. Anybody knows if its possible to do the "I Pitied The Fool" achievment AFTER the event is done? Like save some Love Fools and used them when im 80? Thanks

Kommentar von Ceruleagos

You need to be level 80 if you are considering getting this title. You MUST use a love fool inside the instances (Naxx and Culling of Strathholme), doesn't matter where. For Culling, I did it right as I zoned in and got credit. The same for Naxx. However, you have to be level 80 minimum to enter Naxx. You can't summon anyone lower level inside, so yea. Found out the hard way on my alt who has everything but Naxx.

Kommentar von 322555

if u are a a lower lvl and cnt get in in then can warlock summon u to naxxenttrance and do it there.

and for the culling of strathholme can u jsut stand outside doorway to inctance and do it there or do u have to go inside

Kommentar von Yvelle

As stated above, I was able to get the achievement while the opposing faction had control of Wintergrasp, and not during the battle. I don't know if who controls has any affect on completely this achievement.

Kommentar von Sinestra

At 65-91 in dragonblight (on a bridge) it says ''witergrasp'' and u get the info of the BG at the top of your screen. I droped the fool there and /pity it and it worked. :)

Kommentar von 321101

For the Wintergrasp achievement, I took my flying mount to 33,26 in Dragonblight and landed on the mountain, walked a little and zoned into Wintergrasp, threw the Love Fool on the ground, /pity, then walked back the way i came back into Dragonblight and got back on my mount. Opposing faction held Wintergrasp but that doesn't matter as long as you're in the zone.

Kommentar von 140992

there is a place in WG were u can fly, do this achievement and take off again. its located at 51.5-97.5. Its right along the border of WG and IC. if u put the fool in the wrong place, just remember this, YOU have to be at the required spot. the fool doesnt matter as long as u can target it while you are in the right location.

Kommentar von 307382

As i saaw the comments above it is impossible to do this achievement as an 70 lvl mage. Done all the others except this and the "Be Mine!" one.
Destroying the junk now :/

Kommentar von Chodo

Zoning in is enough. So yes, you can just invite a friend, convert to raid and zone in.

Kommentar von CyberBlade

Wintergrasp: Can be done anywhere in Wintergrasp.
Arathi Basin Blacksmith: Cone be done anywhere near the Blacksmith.
Naxxramas: You have to do it inside the Raid-instance. It can be done just when you enter. You do not have to advance in the Raid.
Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena: Can be done inside the ring. Where the PvP is going on.
The Culling of Stratholme: Can be done just inside the instance.

I hope this helps :)

Kommentar von 264964

But the question is: "Can you get a friend, invite him to a party, convert it to a raid group, enter Naxxramas, lay down your love-fool, pity it and get the achievement. Or do you need to advance further into the instance rather than just inside the portal?"

Yes. I just did it today. 2 ppl in the raid group, one was in Durotar. I popped into Naxx, /pitied, and got credit.

Kommentar von Seriusftw

I can confirm that you get a friend, invite him to a party, convert it to a raid group, enter Naxxramas, lay down your love-fool, pity it and get the achievement. you do not need to go further into the instance, just inside the portal is fine,

Thats how i did it.

Kommentar von 288555

If you don't control the blacksmith areaand you just want to get it done and there attacking you, get a pally to bubble you, quickly plop a fool down and /pity it. Or if your a pally bubble yourself. Thats what i did.

Kommentar von 241166

yes you can just have two person raid group for naxx

Kommentar von PirateSpice

Yep! I just did this, and got the achievement.

Kommentar von chickensrool

summoning inside CoT stratholme DOES NOT WORK I REAPEAT WONT WORK

Kommentar von Mjensen

I got this yesterday: Grp up with a random player in dragonblight, converted to raid, entered instance, layed down love-fool and pity.

I just moved 10 yards maks in the instance, before I used fool.

Kommentar von Darkravager

I checked this, it only works if you enter the instance.
Get any old 80 to group you, convert to raid, then hop through the portal. Once inside, you can drop the dummy anywhere in the central chamber, without making a single kill.

Kommentar von soulol

You can pity a dead Love Fool and it will count for the achievement.

Kommentar von 207536

I placed mine down near the water, just inside of the "Blacksmith" zone limits, and it worked fine.

Kommentar von 150529

at which lvl you can enter naxx?

Kommentar von 323494

can't you get summoned inside Naxx by a warlock or something? it's like a regular summon then isn't it?

Kommentar von 68111

Does this have to be completed during the event, or can you do it anytime as long as you have the love fool?

Kommentar von 99583

I pitied the love fool in Arathi Basin today (after the event was over) and got credit for the achievement, so I assume it can be completed outside of the holiday. =)

Kommentar von Elarieline

I made a mistake by trying it at 78. Big mistake. You have to be lvl 80!

Kommentar von Taxersj

Yes just did it today with 37 minutes left on love fool, was last place I needed but just hit 80 two days ago but slipped my mind til I moused over box.

Kommentar von 322555

obvious MR.T PITY FOOL
THEN THERE WAS A I PTIED THE FOOL

Kommentar von 146819

I think Mr. T's Night Elf Mohawk should've been selling the Love Fools.

Kommentar von 39966

I tried /pitying people wearing title "the Love Fool" in the specified areas, but it didn't work, sadly :(

Kommentar von 541325

This quest has nothing to do with the Night Elf Mohawks.

What you have to do is save up your love cards and buy The Love Fool https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=22261

Then put him down in the places that are listed.
Then use the /pity emote on him.

Be Warned however, The Love Fool makes near by Mobs attack it so you have to be fast, these mobs can also turn and attack you right after it is dead.

Kommentar von Unii

So basically you have to be 80 to get this achievement and the title. WTH is up with that? I can complete everything else easily on my 25 rogue.. Seems like the only world events you can complete under 80 these days is Midsummer and Noble Garden...

Kommentar von Yammeh

Just so you know, the Pity Fool is consumed upon use. Just wasted 10 Love Tokens finding this out.

Kommentar von Xaith

In the Love is in the Air event of 2010,
the Love Fool is purchased with 10 Love Token.
Please note that each Love Fool is a one time use only, so you technically have to buy 5 of them for a total of 50 token.
While not necessary, it is recommended to do this particular achievement with your friends to reduce the total cost for each person.

Just like in the year 2009, you have to enter two PvP zones, one raid zone and one dungeon zone to complete the achievement, and one free for all battle arena in Stranglethorn Vale.
Player versus player combat can be avoided though, by just rushing to the Blacksmith in Arathi Basin, dropping the Fool and /pity'ing him. Make sure to enter the blacksmithy building before dropping the fool, just to be clear you didn't waste it.
Should there not be a battle going in Wintergrasp, it is very likely that you will not face an enemy player at all.

Kommentar von 164923

My "LoveFool" Disappeared from my bags after using it only 2 times. Any help?

Kommentar von 542180

Wintergrasp is only no-fly when there's a battle going on. :) Other than that this was super helpful! Thank you. :D

Kommentar von Lynkyn

What I did was spam /4 (LFG) looking for four other people with Love Fools. We went to Gurubashi and opened trade with each other to check we all had fools, then one person summoned their fool, we all pitied it. We then went to Culling of Stratholme and repeated the process. Then we joined Arathi Basin as a group, went to the Blacksmith and repeated the process. We all went through the Portal in the Silver Enclave to Wintergrasp, one person summoned their fool and we all /pity'd it. Then to Naxx as a Raid, went into the instance, someone summoned their fool, we /pity'd it, and five people got the achievement.

Got the achievement and only had to buy one love fool.

Kommentar von Jazzism

You can also get credit even after the dummy pops and there's just a base with a spring.

*edit* Oh yeah you don't get credit back if you buy one and not end up using it :/

Kommentar von Woffie

If it's not clear to readers...you need to buy Love Fools from the Gobbies or target ones already placed by others. This is NOT a NPC that is walking round. Must have been all the paint chips I ate as a child but for some reason I could not grasp this for like 45min of flying around WG using the target Macro.

...jeesh I need to drink more...

Good Luck!

Kommentar von 62855

Just wasted a love fool because, when I "zoned in" to CoS, it did not zone me in. I assumed (once the 4 min loading screen finally finished) that I would be INSIDE the instance, and plopped the thing down. It turns out it "zoned me in" right outside, if that makes sense >.<

So be careful when doing this quest with all the lag that some servers appear to be experiencing at the moment. I expected to finish my achievement today, and now I can't.

Getting lovely charms may be harder now also. It appears that blizzard has "nerfed" the ability to get them from trampling the undead in the citadel daily quests in Icecrown, and I've found the drop rate to be very low off normal kills.

Kommentar von 363646

Can someone tell me what i am doing wrong?
I tried this achievement 3 times in wintergrasp, all 3 times wintergrasp was controlled by the horde so there was no pvp going on.
I seached for an ice elemental and targeted him as i emote him with /pity
then i place a love fool item close too him so he attacked it.
I /pity him again for that i know for sure and i killed him.

after this i still have not my achievement so my question is what do i wrong?

i was thinking of kill an human maybe
or i was thinking of kill when pvp battle is going on.
but i dont want to spoil another 10 tokens of this achieve again.

Kommentar von 133620

FYI this is a ONE TIME USE item, so try not to waste it! You will have to buy 5 to get the achievement or leach off of others love fools!

Kommentar von 537321

lol....or in BG.....if ur a hunter,do eagle eyes w8 for an ally to drop the pity fool....then when u see it click and pity :)

Kommentar von 303059

I hate quests or achievements that REQUIRE you to be in a group. Seems like they should tell you, saving you a trip half way around the world just to find it out the hard way. >:-(

Kommentar von 56184

The most difficult part of this cheev is getting the fools... if you are lucky enough to have 4 peeps with one each, should be easy... I did this on my pally and lock with the intent of "solo'n" it, just for the lore's sake of it... may not have been the best way to go about it, but only 2days worth of charms, np.... only caviate is that you need at least one more to make the raid group required for naxx... enjoy

Kommentar von EZHK

Naxx requires you be IN the raid instance. By the stone won't cut it.

Kommentar von x5992

I hate when Blizzard does this. The holiday events are suppose to be fun and should be able to be completed by all players. Not just the 80s.

Kommentar von 450238

when you do the naxx one it will only work if you are in the instance not by the summoning stone.

Kommentar von 151989

I think it also needs to be mentioned, since it's not clear, that you need to have one Love Fool for each location. That's five in total. I was under the impression you could buy one and use it as many times as needed.

Kommentar von 772160

Make sure you go to CULLING of Stratholme in Tanaris (Caverns of Time), and not just Stratholme. Wasted a stupid Love Fool... :(

Kommentar von 762648

The Love Fool is only usable once per item. You can't buy it once and use the same crate in all the locations, you have to buy one for each location - so be careful where you place it. Also, it disappears rather quickly so don't wait too long with the /pity.

Kommentar von Shamnz

i dont get were to pity

Kommentar von ToughGirl

where is Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena?

Kommentar von 321580

FYI - Only ONE charge per item. :)

Kommentar von ToughGirl

does it matter Specifically where in Naxx? or jus anywhere in there?

Kommentar von ToughGirl

and same a Caverns of time.... it matter like if u have 2 be all the way zoned in where zombies start battle or can it work near the zone in entrance?

Kommentar von 771700

Yea...sadly I spawned mine on top of nax.... Didn't count : / no biggie except account expires in two days so most likely going to farm a few 10 or so tokens.

You have to be IN the raid. I tried casting my by the stone like someone said, did not count. Wasted two of them.

Kommentar von frozenulfrick

Its a one time use.

Kommentar von Zer0C

Is any1 having problem with the Wintergrasp part of this achievement? I did all the other 4 fine with no problem but this one you pop the Love Fool click , /Pity and the fool vanish without giving you credit.

Kommentar von 785140

Just so everyone knows, don't drop the love fool in the Wintergrasp fortress right when you port in, it will vanish immediately. Just go outside of the fortress anywhere in Wintergrasp.

Kommentar von 785798

I went to NAXX and as I entered, just to be sure I went close to the entrance where the spiders are, then I dropped the love fool box and wrote /pity and nothing happened, it was not checked from the achievement list as already done. So I wasted one. Does anybody have a suggestion?

Kommentar von ToughGirl

i zones in naxx and as i was near entrance still worked 4 me... jus be sure to target it and type /pity

Kommentar von canyonvr

As a predominately solo player (I know it's an MMO!) I don't like the idea of having to group into a raid just to get part of this achievement.

Accidentally, I figured out a way to get into Nax without bothering anyone with begging for a raid group just so I can go in and out for the few seconds it takes to get this part of the achievement.

After a Wintergrasp battle I was in Dalaran when I noticed I was still in a raid group. Before realizing the significance I left the group. Then it donned on me that this would be an easy way to get into Nax.

So, I kept my eye on when Wintergrasp BG was up, joined the battle, flew to Nax and got my fool pitied, and still had time to fly back and defend Wintergrasp!

Kommentar von shiftingillusion

This item is now tagged with "Requires Love is in the Air," which leads me to suspect it may be removed from our bags / no longer useable after the event ends. This would be bad news for anyone who isn't quite 80 and wants the title.

Confirmed by GM just now:

"With anything that has the stipulation "Requires world event," the achievement will not proc after the event is over. Most of the temporary items will also be removed from players inventory once the event is over as well."

Kommentar von Waterdragon

Went and did it in Arathi Basin, I dropped my fool and there were several of us that got credit for it, also dropped one....non grouped...in Wintergrasp and others around me were able to /pity and I believe they got credit for it as well.

Kommentar von 12engesea

Just got this achievement yesterday, for Naxx and CoS, you just need one other person in the group. They don't even have to be in the instance with you.

Kommentar von 780876

why do people make this sound difficult? just run to BS @ start with a group of people and quickly drop inside bs, its fairly simple :D

Kommentar von 622351

You can get the wintergrasp part of this achi even if your faction does not have control of WG.
I flew to over the main building (where the questgivers etc usually are) and landed on a ledge above the VOA entrance door, whipped out my love fool and pitied him, got the achi.
(this advice is especially for anyone on a server whose side is sucky at pvp and never wins WG, don't think my side has had WG since cata launched)

Kommentar von PSPlayer

For Alliance. To pity the fool. As of 2011 you can buy the Love Fool from any Lovely Merchant in the capitol cities for 10 Charm Bracelets each.

You then go to these location.

Wintergrasp --- Anywhere in the zone will do, not just the Fortress.
Arathi Basin Blacksmith --- You only need to be on the little island, not necessarily in the shop itself.
Naxxramas --- You need to be inside the raid. Standing on the entrance platform won't do it.
Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena --- Well, that pretty much describes it. In the Cape of SV.
The Culling of Stratholme --- This is the instance in the Caverns of Time, Tanaris. Not Eastern Plaguelands.

To get the achievement right click the fool in your bag and place it near you. Select the fool that you just made and type in your chat window /pity.

Kommentar von Ranadicus

When I dropped my Love Fool in Naxx Mr. Bigglesworth attacked and destroyed it. He then proceeded to attack me as well.

Kommentar von Phaidra

You will need x10 that means x10 or complete a daily quest in one of your major citys .
So to complete all of the 5 places , you will need an amount of 100 .

Wintergrasp You can do it in the whole area of Wintergrasp , there is no specific position needed .
Arathi Basin Blacksmith On the area of Blacksmith in Arathi Basin .
NaxxramasYou will have to be in a raid to be able to complete it , make sure you have enter the raid .
Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena At stranglethon Vale , you can see on your map an area named Gurubashi arena , get in there .
The Culling of Stratholme It's in Tanaris , "CAVERNS OF TIME" .

Make Sure before you have placed your , you are ready to /pity it or they won't complete!

Good luck with your achievement :)

Kommentar von 793670

First buy 5 Love Fools.

Then follow these directions to pity your fool.
Right click you Love Fool located in your bag, aim him close to the chat box on your screen, put him down and type /pity. I will say you look down on love fool with pity or something like that... make sure you got that location before you leave (lol).

Wintergrasp- Just fly to Wintergrasp in Northrend. Anywhere in Wintergrasp. Pity your fool.
Battle Ring of Gurubashi- Go to Straglethorne and look on your map for the Gurubashi Arena. In the middle of the arena, Pity your fool.
Arathi Basin Blacksmith- Que for Arathi Basin Battleground. Look on your map and find the Blacksmith (in the very middle of the bg), go to the back of the building or something and Pity your fool.
The Culling of Stratholme- Go to Dalaran and take the portal (located in the Violet Citadel; it's located NW on your map.) Go in the building and walk up the stairs and go the the left portal- Caverns of something (lol); its the left one. Then fly and follow the mini map alll the waaaay down the path into the instance, then Pity your fool.
Naxxamus- is a little more difficult. You must be in a raid party of at least two. (invite someone, convert the party to raid), the person does not have to be with you when you enter. Fly to the floating building and look for the entrance underneath it. Enter and Pity your fool.

Congrats! :D

Kommentar von Lucilite

For Wintergrasp, do you have to be in the battleground version of the zone (with a battle going on), or does it work just to fly into the zone on the map, where there's no PVP just creatures & such?

Kommentar von 853704

Since people keep asking this other places too-
You only need to be in the Wintergrasp zone. You do not need to join the battle.

Kommentar von kykuky

Just to help,
You can /Pity an Enemies love fool and it will count towards the Achievement.

Kommentar von Lucilite

Do you have do all of this in one year to get the achievement, or can you do it incrementally?
Like say I get Wintergrasp, AB, and the Arena done this time, but run the holiday ends before I have time to buy more dummies. When it starts again next year, will I only need to buy 2 Fools to get the remaining places, or will I have to start over with all 5?

The key point here is that if my toon that can't likely do all locations for the achievement, then I don't want to spend my LoveTokens on ANY Fools if they'll end up being wasted.

Beware! There is a bug with Gurubashi right now that prevents one from getting the achieve there. I put in a ticket about it and Blizz gave me the credit though.

Don't forget to /pity the Love Fool. Seems obvious, but I forgot it. Twice...

Kommentar von PsychoBilli

I discovered the hard way that you may not necessarily need to buy a Love Fool when doing the Arathi Basin part of this achievement, as in many games there will be multiple players looking to do this achievement. So don't do what I did and buy all 5 love fools right away. Buy one to be prepared, then head into the BG and see if someone else drops a Love Fool. If not, then you can drop the one you brought, but if so then it will save you 10 Love Tokens.

Was able to get Naxx by setting my Hearthstone to Wintergarde Keep Joining the Battle for Tol Barad, when the battle was over I stayed in the group hearthed to Wintergard and was able to enter the Raid.

How to complete this achievement:

Make sure you have 50 Love Tokens in order to buy 5x Love Fools.

You will have to visit following places:

- Wintergrasp - place the Love Fool somewhere inside the Wintergrasp area. Once placed target it and type /pity.

- Arathi Basin Blacksmith - place the Love Fool on the island in the center of the battleground, commonly known as "The Blacksmith". Once placed target it and type /pity

- Naxxramas - place the Love Fool inside the raid (group up with someone and convert the group into a raid). Once placed target it and type /pity.

- Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena - place the Love Fool in the center of the arena (in the battle area!). Once placed target it and type /pity.

- The Culling of Stratholme - place the Love Fool inside the dungeon (does not matter where - just make sure to be inside the actual dungeon). Once placed target it and type /pity.

As Alliance I find the fastest route to be: Queue up for Arathi Basin (optional) -> Get to Stormwind -> Fly to Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena -> Use Wormhole Generator (if engineer) or get a portal to Dalaran -> Fly to Wintergrasp -> Fly to Naxxramas -> Get back to Dalaran and use the portal to Caverns of Time.

As Horde I find the fastest route to be: Queue up for Arathi Basin (optional) -> Get to Orgrimmar -> Fly to Ratchet and take the boat to Booty Bay -> Fly to Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena -> Use Wormhole Generator (if engineer) or get a portal to Dalaran -> Fly to Wintergrasp -> Fly to Naxxramas -> Get back to Dalaran and use the portal to Caverns of Time.

If you have done this correctly you will now be the proud owner of the achievement "I Pitied The Fool" !

You can now create an unlimited-duration trial account, so just dual-box onto it, create a level 1 of your faction, alt-tab to your main, /i, convert to raid, then close the second WoW application. Now you're in a raid, no other people required. Also useful for that elusive race/class combo you just can't find for other achieves (Eine Handvoll Liebe, Von Hasen und Häschen), provided they don't need to be over level 20.

Although the replies are correct that you need a level 10 to start a raid, I thought the gist of my comment was still useful, as it doesn't take *that* long to hit level 10, and could be helpful to anyone having trouble finding a group (on my low pop server there have been times getting to level 10 was faster than finding someone to start a group with). However, with MoP you can now get into older raids without being in a group at all, so I'm going to mark this as out of date.

In Wintergrasp - I learned NOT to use this near envious monsters. My pet attacked the monster that was attacking the fool and I didn't have time to target, let alone type /pity. You don't have to be near monsters to get this to work.
The Gurubashi arena part - It clearly says "Battle Ring of Gurubashi Arena" ( a red text will let you know you are there). Just be ready for a fight if any other players are around.
For the Naxxramas fool - Check the Dalaran weekly raid quest for Archmage Lan'dalock. There are always people forming raid groups for them and Blizz sets one in Naxx during the holiday.
Arathi Basin Blacksmith - Even if the opposing faction holds it you can place the fool behind the building with enough time to /pity it before you die (fingers crossed). There is always a chance a rogue or hunter is stealthed inside.
The Culling of Stratholme - Not to be confused with Stratholme in Eastern Plaguelands, You don't have to talk to the guy at the top of the ramp in this level 79 dungeon or go any further than the entrance. Just enter, drop it, pity it and leave; like its a speed date.
I dismiss pet before these just to be safe because it looks like a chew toy.

You can get the dummies on your alts and trade them with a guildie to transfer to your main. This saves your Love Tokens on your main for the pet and mount. Just FYI.

Woo, last time I have to PvP until Children's Week. I hate world event achievements that force you to do battlegrounds for no good reason…

Kommentar von Scoobyboo

I didn't see this mentioned anywhere, but when you are doing this together with a friend you only need one Love Fool.
And you can both pity the same one :)

Why not enjoy a nice romantic Picnic in Dalaran afterwards...

Kommentar von Takata

Confirmed pretty much what everyone is saying. You just have to be in the area specified. Here's a tip, just look at the top bar above your mini map where it mentions your location. As soon as you see the location change to where you need to be just plop down the fool and /pity it! Also once again for Naxx you can just make a party with a friend, convert it to raid and you can enter the instance and pity the fool. Your friend doesn't even have to be the right level or anything for you to enter. Hope this helps!

Useful for this event and many other which require cross-faction targets:
Make a trial account under your battle.net account and dual-log on it, and simply create the character combos you need for the achieve, then travel to meet them & do whatever you need.

Unfortunately, you can't make Death Knights on the trial account, but you can still use it to log on some random crossfaction character you made on it, and simply do /who human death knight and make a /target macro for the names of any of them you think you can find, then go off & hunt them down.
Has proved useful for checking if there's any such players in places like Dalaran or Hellfire Peninsula or other quickly & easily reachable places to get the achievements done, without needing to deal with battlegrounds.

Finally, you can quickly level a character to 10 on that trial account and use him to make raid anytime you need, for example to enter Naxxramas for this achievement.

aaww man you gotta backslash pity it? no wonder it didnt work ,

Kommentar von NinjaSamwray

Well, I get lost in caverns of time.. and as a newer player I thought that battle ring was inside zul'gurub.... wowhead could point the exact locations on the map...

Kommentar von IAmAtomica

Could not get credit for Naxxramas. I flew inside, pitied the fool not once but twice.

I suppose it's because I was not in a raid group.

Steamed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Follow the guide for where from Thali. It's perfect.

You will need to either purchase a "Fool" from the vender for 10 tokens or know someone who has one.
The "Fool" is only good for one (1) use.

So....if you are doing this on your own, you will need to make sure to do the dailies for the love tokens, buy your 5 "Fools" and then go to all the places and set out your fool and /pity.

If you do all the dailies you should be able to buy one fool a day.

Hope this helps.

Proof that Blizzard actively hates the playerbase.

Sure. Lets make an achievement that's required for a meta of a FOR FUN event. But...we'll make it so one of the required areas is a FFA PVP spot so griefers, regardless of faction, can hang out and make sure you can't get the completion.

Kommentar von BoSoxFan08

WotLK Classic confirmed on 19 Feb 2023. You can be 77 and fly up to Naxx and stand behind portal swirl and it say "you have to be 80 to enter..." and throw down a Love Fool and /pity it and get the credit. I did it and gor the achievement. It was the final thing I needed for the I Pity the Fool and for the Love Fool achievement. It's been a good day. Got my Cold Weather flying and this today!
