Didn't drop an orb for me when I killed him today.

Kommentar von Returner99

his Pyroblast hits for 2,5k on lvl 70 rogue

Kommentar von 28437

Just killed him 3 times in a row, and no orb dropped. Possible the drop % was nerfed, or I am extremely unlucky today.

Kommentar von Dirae

Is he stunable?

Kommentar von Nolimit

Soloable as rogue??

If so, I would farm orbs :D

Kommentar von 31472

u can easy kill him as a 70 rogue. but

ive done this a few times with a 2nd person. cleared all trash in the scarlet side. and he always dropped an orb.

stealth to him and i aint had him drop an orb yet.

so i guess he only drops one if you kill the trash.

Kommentar von zomzom

10 runs and i got 1 from him im getting pissed here
= / either im really out off luck or the drop rate is imba nurfed

I have been killing him several times solo as a 70 rogue using different methods. For fastest runs I sprint through all undead packs from entrance and through the "rat cage" then vanish straight to the left after the cage, sprint allows you to run through and not get caught between the barred gates.

The times I did not get an orb drop was when I skipped all mobs in Scarlet side as well as when I only cleared the cathedral court-yard. I thought maybe getting Timmy to spawn would act as a trigger for Galford's loot table.

To get an orb (still not 100% cause the droprate isn't 100%) I clear the yard and the corridor where Galford is located. Have worked about 90% of the runs I've done so far. I am currently testing Certain numbers of mobs killed to get an orb.
Clearing yard + corridor yields 30 kills. I'm trying all numbers upwards from 20-30 atm.

Gonna report if I find something that seems to work other than corridor + yard clear.

Kommentar von Aredict

He can actually be a tough fight if you're not paying attention. He tricked me into a deadly Burning Winds (stun + dot) and then charged up a Pyro, releasing a Blast Wave when they launched...I barely survived, but ate the next 2 Pyro's with a Grounding Totem.

Just keep an eye out and you'll have your orb in no time ^^

Kommentar von Ambusher

Highly recommended to kill the mobs at the yard. An orb just dropped for me on 8-9th mob. Might just be me being lucky, though.

Edit: This guy is NOT hard as a combat sword rogue... just pop all your CDs and CoS and he'll be lucky to even damage you ;)

Solo tips.. If you've cleared the hallway that he is in, it makes fighting him so much easier. Due to pyroblast being a long cast you can use LOS to cancel it by running into the hall or into the room the 2 monks are in (2.7k + dot is still alot of dmg if he does it twice vs you)

Kommentar von 27746

clearly not 64% drop rate. killed him 10 times yesterday. no orb.

Kommentar von 16359

I did this a a Protection Warrior with Kara/SSC/TK gear. It went fine except for a couple of problems.

Cadaver Worms - No health regen.
Black Rot - 10% reduced chance to dodge.

The exception to Cadaver Worms seems to be food which regenerates percentage of your health per second.

The undead shouldn't really be a problem. You can still pull 2-3 full packs and solo them with high enough avoidance. SC side, on the other hand, shouldn't be underestimated. Pull one group at a time. Any more will pretty much have you perma-disarmed, leaded to a severe gimping of your damage output. Too many 2h wielding Scarlet Galant's with too many Crusader Strike stacks will also leave you very dead, very fast. Groups with more than one Initiate take forever thanks to Flash Heal, I suggest focusing on one healer and using Intimidating Shout when it gets low.

As for Galford, you can spell reflect his Pyroblast.

Kommentar von 75972

Easy soloble as a 70 tankadin, his flames hit hard but not hard enough. just watch the damn patrols on your way tehre since they tend to show up and backstab you as often as possible.

Kommentar von 122343

I'm assuming that the droprate on Righteous Orb has changed since he did not drop any for me in the past couple hours. Can anyone else confirm?

Kommentar von 110266

Same here, around 10 kills and only 1 orb.

Kommentar von 122037

I have no idea what you guys are saying i've been farming both sides of strat with about 1 run every 40 -50 minutes, every time i've killed this guy he has dropped an orb and this is my 13th run....

Kommentar von 181449

I've seen so many mixed answers about the orb being 100% chance to drop of Galford and it's hard to say which is right. Recently I've been running strat alot for orbs and out of the last probably, 12 kills; I've picked up 12 orbs from him. 100% of the time. Then again, in the past when I've run strat, I probably got an orb maybe... 30% of the time off of Galford. I can't say if they increased the drop rate in recent patches but I will say Galford has a pretty darn good chance of dropping an orb compared to everything else :)

Kommentar von 73093

Guys...random loot is random.

Kommentar von zemmix

His drop rate on the orbs has to have been nerfed. There is no way it's 68%. I just spent the last three hours running live side, killed this guy 5 time but 0 orbs!

Kommentar von 168193

i killed it25 times and had no orb drop :(

Kommentar von 177671

He dropped one for our group today, so it's still in.

Kommentar von 274287

the bouqqet doesnt drop anymore ( 12 feb 2009 )

Kommentar von 158000

Confirmed, no red roses anymore

Kommentar von 268064

Please people, stop the useless posts about how you are able to solo it with a 70+... Its not usefull to people in the intended level range of this instance as for now, since patch 3.3 with the random dungeon option, the place is farmed a lot more often because of good gear for leveling and the nice exp bonus you can get.

My question is if ppl who post here could please give us some tactics about how the fight should be done with a 5-man group around lvl 60.

I thank you in advance ;)

(and yes I have several lvl 80s now that are able to solo them, but that doesnt help my leveling Feral Druid =P)

The orbs are highly coveted for Crusader on heirloom weapons.

Today i managed to kill him 10 times while farming Shards, Rep and his orbs and he dropped the orb the first 6 times. I then went off and got Crusader on some heirlooms, came back for one more orb and killed him 3 times with no drops, last time it dropped.

I did this as a mage and i found it was very fast if you go through one entrance and Blink past or freeze and Blizzard the Mobs for most of it, I was 80 so if i hugged the wall i could get past most groups but some you will aggro.

When you get to the first of the Scarlet Crusade you can Blink past the first 2 at the barricade, walk around the others and when you get to the stairs, go towards the 3/4 standing there and blink when about 10 yards away and you will get up the stairs, walk through and after the tunel, stick to the left side to avoid a group, pass through the hall and avoid Patrols by either waiting until they are in a group of people before blinking through them (By going 10 yards away from them and then blinking).

If you get into trouble, try not to run away but instead kill the group if you can or use Invisibility or any Invisibility Potions you may have. you will get to a corridor with 2 doors, take the one on the left and stay close to the wall on the right and you will not aggro the guards. when you get to the end of the building he is opposite the last boss, you can either continue Blinking past Mobs or you can go invisible and run into his room, Soloing his was not hard because most of his attacks did ~500 damage on me with Frost armour but that was absorbed by my Ice Barrier. I managed to kill him quickly enough and make my way out again.

I found Blink by far the most useful spell and any i aggro'd i would just Frost Nova and Blizzard them, using Cone of Cold if any survived. I did this in Early Heroics gear in Frost specc but it could be possible in any gear. You could try this without any gear and once you kill him, run into the Boss or Groups of Mobs and die, reset while you are a ghost and run in.

All accounted for, I Managed to get him done the last 4 times within 1 hour (Because the other times i was soloing the entire instance) although it could probably be done faster.

Kommentar von kerrymayall

He really does throw the book at you, this guy.

Kommentar von 716821

Remember guys that the npc is in the scarlet zone just in front of balzannar.. have fun..

Kommentar von OfficialHelpKenn

The drop chance is 95%. So it doesnt drop if you're VERY unlucky :)

Kommentar von Menjina

The dropchance on orbs is not 95%.

It is 100% and 0%.

Sounds weird right? The reason is quite simple though.

If you kill the scarlet trash, he will drop 1 orb 100%.
If you stealth to and kill him, he won't drop one.

Kommentar von Thottbot

where's he at?

Kommentar von Thottbot

when you're in the last corridor on balnazzar's side of the scarlet side of strat, he's left (and balnazzar on the right)

Kommentar von Thottbot

I've noticed this guy dropping righteous orbs very often lately, possibly every time I kill him. Maybe Its just a coincidence but can anyone confirm that he always drops a righteous orb?

Kommentar von Thottbot

cant recall exactly which day, but a few day's ago he dropped me one too

Kommentar von Thottbot

Confirmed, for eight runs he has dropped a Righteous Orb each time. Likely bumped to 100% so that it isn't as unreasonable to craft/enchant with orbs. Average drops per run is at three for our four man groups. Maximum drops in a run is at eleven.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Archivist drops it. it's a white drop, no roll.

Kommentar von Thottbot

This man is also suppose to drop the rank 7 food for mages. 3180 hp in 30 secs.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Blizzard noticed the drop rate on righteous orbs have gone WAY down lately so they decreased the chance of most Crimson folks to drop one and buffed his chance to 100% to make it balanced. Your chances to get them got from 1/10 to 3/10 and then to 3/5 and now back to 1/5 =S the price never stays the same.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I was wondering if a 60 rogue with full epics and a thunderfury plus a 60 druid with decent blues could stealth farm him? If not duo, trio?

Kommentar von Thottbot

How exactly would a Rogue actually get there, though? Sneaking through Stratholme is no picnic. The zombies and ghouls see right through Stealth.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Could it be that one has to kill the cannon master first in ordert to drop an orb? soloed him 3 time now and got no orb :(

Kommentar von Thottbot

Solo'd... level 70 mage. Dropped an orb. Did not kill cannon guy.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yes I think he does, therfore making it easier for players to get crusader. I think its just a blizzard thing.

Kommentar von Thottbot

quite easily soloed the whole thing as a 70 warrior ^^

Kommentar von Thottbot

this guy is NOT 100% drop rate for orbs
i just snuck in and solo and no orb 4 me

Kommentar von Thottbot

this guy is NOT 100% drop for orb
i just snuck in and solo - no orb for me

Kommentar von Thottbot

I stealth ran up to this guy 3 times and no orb i dont know where the hell u guys came up with almost every run

Kommentar von Thottbot

Guys, we all know that Righteous orb drop in Strat on almost every run, so why make a big thing of it?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Unconfirmed, but stealthing in seems to not work, but clearing the mobs then killing him works 100% for me. I think the chance that he drops an orb goes up as his lackeys go down.

Kommentar von Thottbot

how do you get into the "scarlet side of strat"?

Kommentar von Thottbot

I had a party with a 70 druid tank im lvl 60 rogue, we did the whole instance and he drop the orb.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Damn this orb

I killed this guy 5 times with my 70 druid , still no orbs

And this instance is just fked up, the uds can see thru stealth, especially the stealthed ones, super gay. ANother retarded thing is that you can't leave ud strat (live) once you entered. So disapointed at blizzard..

The drop rate could be false information.

Kommentar von Thottbot

What lvl do u have to be to go in the instance?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Don't even bother farming this guy. In the time it takes to sneak/kill your way in you could easily farm the AH bouyout price.

Plus when you factor in that none of the trash drops in strat are twink items it becomes even less worth it.

+Repair bills
+you could be gaining rep somewhere in outland
+the droprate isn't what it has been
+the reset process sucks

eff it

Kommentar von Thottbot

Soloed by me pretty easily.. got through the place w/o wiping.. only problem is the rats.. my want to go combat for bladfurry for them...

Kommentar von Thottbot

I am not sure how the orb drops from this guy. I have killed all mobs about five times in the live side and he dropped it each and every time. I also have tried to just stealth directly to him not killing any mobs and I can say that he didn't drop the orb so there is something that must happen for the orb to drop from him but I haven't figured it out yet.

Easy way to stealth to the live side below:

1) Enter instance
2) Make your first left.
3) You want to head towards the right towards the open gate. When you pass by gates will close and 100's of rats will spawn. Kill them and gets will open for you to pass.
4) You want to head towards your left then go strait, live side on your left huge open gate with some humans.

Also note that if you kill the guys on the steps I belive this is how Timmy gets summoned. Just kill them and look for timmy's yell. Kill timmy and get a quick blue before you even enter.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Is this guy soloable by a decent geared hunter?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So he drops the new mage ability "Conjure Food Rank 7"?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Confirmed! He droped Tome of Conjure Food VII for my mage on 2nd kill. Its white & boe, so make sure u check his corpse yourself.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

got the devout gloves! on my first run... might be the last too XP but then again the cape drop from him seen alluring enough

Kommentar von Allakhazam

he does pyroblast for over 2000 dmg.

also, he does a fire "dot" which stuns. can be removed by priests and paladins.

apart from that hes easy. hes melee attack is faily weak. just zerg him, thats what "i" usually do.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Solo'd as a lvl 70 Fury Warrior. Didn't use any cooldowns like Recklessness, just straight up dps. I did not try to Shield Bash or Pummel to interrupt his Pyroblast near the end of the fight...and I guess I could have used Spell Reflection also. Oh well. I thought maybe I could Execute him before he got his cast off, but no luck. It hit me for about 2500....almost died. Dropped a Righteous Orb and some blue that I DE'd.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

What group is needed to get him dead?Is it a hard?Any special attacks(aoe etc?)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Never saw this guy. Can anyone please say where he is found?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I farm Live Strat for two reasons. Orbs and Gloves. I have never seen gloves drop in the 40+ runs I have had. I hate this guy...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

dont think the drop rate on the righteous orbs is 46% anymore ive stealthed to him atleast 50 times now and havent seen 1.. maybe im just unlucky

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does he not always spawn? I havnt seen him any of the last few times ive been there...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

He always spawns, in a room next to Balnazzar's room (scarlet part). Hoping to get devout drop from him..
