Get a group of 2-3 for this. Colossals will spawn adds as their health depletes(up to 3 total).

Commentaire de 12815

Coords: (18.40) and surrounding area.

Suggested group: 3 people although it can be done with 2. Perfect group: tank, healer, dps

These mobs summon non-elite adds (up to 3) as their health drops down. Once they are dead, they can be looted again with mining skill.

Take care with agroing more mobs, move your target away from the area, since these elites wander around, and also Fel Reavers

Commentaire de 9799

Can solo easily by kiting these mobs through the pass leading to the Temple steps.

Guards take care of the rest.

Warning: Grabbing more than one may seem like a good idea to speed things up, yet every time I did this the guards seemed to hesitate and I'd die or have to Feign, and lose at least one. Classes unable to dump aggro may find themselves in trouble.

Easily soloable as a 62 priest with 327 spell dmg.

Commentaire de 6833

These can be soloed as a feral dr00d. Just take care to kill the first two spawns as soon as they are there.

My strat:

Root the mob, cast moonfire, faerie fire. Regrowth/rejuv then bear charge into the mob and maul away.

First add spawns at 70%, kill that straight away; 2k hp and should die fast.

After that add was dead, carry on mauling/mangling away. If hp does run low - bash/root run away heal, hots whatever and go back in. Kill the 2nd add that spawns as fast as possible that should be around 45% hp.

After that kill the mob till he's dead then kill the spawns after. One thing I did notice is when I CCed the last spawn with nature's grasp, and finished the mob off because my health was running low, was that the spawn despawned after maybe 10-15 seconds. It might be worth someone testing this to see if all spawns disappear after 10 seconds or so. :)

It's gonna be slow but they are soloable. Just be very careful where you pull, casting demo roar can pull a nearby mob to you and that is insta death for you. Move the mob to a clear area and you should have no problems at all.

Commentaire de 17376

Solo'd easily by any warlock as these giants can be feared. If you keep your fear up at all times, you don't even have to deal with the small spawns.

Soloable by 61 priest

Commentaire de 24036

Can be solo'ed as lvl 62 frost mage. Just have mana/healing pot ready but it can be done without. Oh and use pet. With cold snap you can grind 2 after each other. But have to have pet ready.

You can also just frostbolt kite them and run away from the adds. They are a bit slow to spawn and wont aggro if u are far enough away.

Commentaire de 40256

Easily soloable by any Alliance player. Done it as lvl 61 rogue ;D
Approach from the Temple, pull and run back. Somewhere near the gates attack again, otherwise the giant will turn around and run away. Drag him a bit further so that four guards start hitting him. Very easy ;D

Commentaire de 19583

Note to Alliance players seeking to have the guards kill them: keep in mind that the guards are very weak, and will, in many cases, simply not aggro and start attacking it. They can't really be counted on to tank either, as they do little damage.

Commentaire de 41374

How would a 61 Paladin fare soloing against a Raging Colossus?

Commentaire de 43728

They are pretty hard to kill. They split and spawn an add. Could get messy for you.

Commentaire de Taemojitsu

As of 2.1.0, these now evade if you kite them more than a couple hundred meters, so it is no longer possible to kite them to the nearby temple. If you're trying to kill them then, make sure you kite them in a circle instead of just running away, or they'll up and evade on you.

These can be soloed as a frost mage, possibly by any spec mage as long as you're good with snares. If you can't avoid aggroing the shardlings, you can use CoC/FN to root them all giving you time to nuke down the elite. The shardlings will despawn a little bit after the elite dies, so don't waste mana killing them if you can avoid it.

The shardlings hit for about 225 on cloth, which is almost as much as the colossus once it splits a few times, so you can't just let them beat on you. :) A good opportunity to practice aoe kiting skills, or learn some if you don't have any!

Commentaire de 23443

Very easy to solo as a 61 mage. Kite them in circles, stay at a distance so you don't pick up the little shardling adds. Pop water elemental if you pick up any adds.

Commentaire de bodoron

If you're a warlock this is extremely easy. Just fear and dot, shadow bolt when he's running. Maybe use the void walker to take care of the mini adds

Commentaire de darukaru

The colossi are leashed pretty tightly now, if you're going to try to fear-kite them don't do it on the side nearest the temple. If they go more than a couple feet in the wrong direction your work will be wasted. Still soloable (62 affliction lock), you just have to be careful.

Commentaire de 64110

Hmm, i tried then with my 61 paladin. My best record was 30% but i was exhausted by then :|. I suppose at 63 i could beat them. Their melee doesn't hurt at all but they do an arcane strike (spelling) that can hit upwards 400, sometimes, they went on knockdown rampage.

Commentaire de Shikengriuber

Soled with 62 Druid Boomkin. Starfire, dots, roots the kill odds and again the same. Hade 6.5k mana and almost always needed innervate.

Commentaire de 17203

Soloed by my lvl61 hunter, pretty easy for hunters and warlocks that have tanking pets. Just heal your pet through the fight and kill adds 1 by 1.

Commentaire de tlanwarrior

Any chance at removing the picture since they are no longer kitable? (The picture is showing someone kitting them to the guards at the temple)

Commentaire de Zellyn

During this quest you will find a Crimson Crystal Shard which is then turned in a few times and leads to Natural Remedies, but isn't technically a quest-chain because quests come from two different NPCs.

Commentaire de 19883

The mobs can be solo'd as Level 62 Holy Paladin, but took me a about 8 minutes to kill, 2 Heavy Netherweave Bandages and Major Mana pot.

Shield Out... Judgment of Crusader + Seal of Righteousness, Blow you cooldowns fast so they activate soon. Take the Shardlings as soon as they appear.

Commentaire de Discombobulator

COLOSSAL PAIN IN THE ASS.

Locks, be warned: this quest will make you want to kill yourself.

You have to juggle chain-fearing (to keep it from crapping out adds that hit like fast little trucks) and pray to your god that as you keep dots up that he doesn't roam outside of his leash zone (which he will do) or into his friends (which he will do) or that when you finally have him down to 5% and he's about to drop that a Fel Reaver doesn't appear out the shadows (which will happen).

It should be an easily soloable elite quest but instead of solving the problem of retards kiting them to guards to kill (how about if the guard kills it, you get no credit, WOW THAT WAS HARD GUYS :D) they just threw a painfully short leash on them and left it at that.

What a colossal waste of time.

Commentaire de 18330

The adds are summoned at 75, 50 and 25%. If the mobs are stunned at that point then no adds will be summoned. Makes it a lot easier to burn them down and stun just before the relevant percentages.

Commentaire de 43546

Soloable by locks, fear and CoE works just fine =) although i had problems with them running back and evading everything =S got rather confused

Commentaire de 114207

Solod as a 62 BE Shadow Priest.

Commentaire de 65622

I (63 shadow priest) and a friend (63 enh shammy) did this by kiting one of them back to an area near the road that we'd cleared, though if you kite too far they will run back and evade. Concentrate on the shardlings as they happen, and by the end when you are the most mana-depleted, you can just wand or hit the colossus (by then it'll be 25% size, after all). Worked like a charm as long as you keep aggro off the clothie. ^^

Commentaire de 149

Soloed as a level 61 pure-Frost mage. Just kite back and forth around the area with Frostbolt, as they reset if you get to the road. If you keep them moving you don't usually aggro the little guys that spawn every 25% damage done, though I do Frost Nova so I can get some distance once in a while. Shatter and Permafrost probably allowed me to do it, otherwise it would close in too fast or die too slow.

Commentaire de Fuuma

Solo'd as a 62 geared hunter.
I would suggest kiting, though but I hate how long that takes. xD
It was hard to take the aggro off me because I was mending my pet which generated some aggro.

Commentaire de 70753

easy to solo as 62 warlock - demonlogy

using felguard as tank against adds, and keep the big giant feared constantly. all while you put up dots and nuking with shadowbolt. :)

Commentaire de 129177

And yes, if you have been wondering if it is possible to solo this as a prot paladin...(at least at level 64 outland quest received gear).

Make use of seal of light, holy shield, consecration (when the first add appears) and when you get very low on energy to cast divine shield, use holy light twice and use netherweave bandage for the rest to get up to 100% health during your bubble. Making use of a mana potion helps, and don't forget to resort to lay on hands in case things really get messy.

I bet it is possible to also solo that with lower levels, given that your gear is good or you have a better strategy.

I saw a hunter die on this quest attempting to solo it, but then again, he was 2 levels below me...and also didn't have any kick-ass gear!

Commentaire de Laniax

Solo'd as 61 demon lock.. just fear big guy and let felguard take adds.. if fellguards nearly dies just let him stand still and howl of terror the adds

Commentaire de Willspike

Solo'd as a 61 frost mage. Had to get water elemental out for each, just beat them up as fast as possible, and freeze when they get to you. The lowest I got to on one was 330 health and 1200 mana. Once I did literally get to 1 health (no lie, i was laughing my ass off) from theyre spawns. Watch out fo them...they have no health but hit 300s. Also, last but not least watch out as a fel reaver patrols this place.

EDIT: I was wondering because there are fully grown (these guys shrink when they let out adds) ones dead (aka, 1 hit KO), so can the fel reaver kill these guys? And the grown ones can be mined. I don't know what comes from the though.

Commentaire de Kobzol

easily soloed as 61 frost mage.Just freeze him, let the elemental do dmg and run in circle

Commentaire de 143423

PATCH 2.4 UPDATE

I am a priest, i found a warrior to do it with. Do able but hard to keep ur aggro down as priest when its just you and a warrior fighting an elite. The trouble is when they get lower in health they shrink and spawn mini me's. Coor are correct. 18, 40.

Commentaire de 128231

Well, I've been through HFP six times now on six different classes, so I figure I'll add my two cents in for those looking for information. Seeing as how I like to come to WoWhead for information on quests like these to see if they are possible to solo with the class I am using, I figure I am not the only one, so hopefully this helps some people.

Rogue - When I came through on my Rogue at 61-62 it was during the release of TBC, so there were always people doing this quest. I ended up doing it in a group for ease. However, my Rogue was Combat Swords, so if he had to solo them, he probably could have if he waited for his cools between pulls. Adrenaline Rush, Evasion and properly timed stuns make it possible to solo.

Mage - Couldn't solo this on my Mage, but that's because he was Fire spec. The adds made it too much damage to live through. Had he been Frost, I think there is a chance he could have done it by kiting them around and using the Water Elemental.

Shaman - My Shaman was able to solo this as Enhancement. I used a Frost Shock and heal kiting method that worked to separate the mob from the adds as well as I Frost Shocked near the add spawn points and was far enough away that the adds did not aggro me. If I got one, I dropped a Stoneclaw and continued. Wasn't too bad.

Paladin - Not too difficult as Protection. Used a bit of Holy gear for mana and Consecrate and shield and I wasn't taking too much damage. Mana is obviously the concern.

Warlock - This quest is trivial as a Warlock, especially Affliction. Neither the mob nor its adds are immune to fear. Fear, DoT, kept a Voidwalker on it just in case fear broke at an add spawn point and the quest is done. No problems.

Hunter - As a BM Hunter, this wasn't TOO bad. Here's how I did it since I am not that big on my kiting skills. I dropped a Freezing Trap, I sent my pet in, popped Beastial Wrath, Mend Pet and let her Growl twice. I then popped my trinket (the one from the Overlord quest) and began using my Steady Shot/Auto Shot weave while keeping Mend Pet up. The adds would aggro onto my pet at first, but heal aggro from Mend Pet would eventually pull to me. One adds frozen, stepped away, dropped another and repeated. Took a while, but they did do down. Key is two things: Make good use of Feign Death to get the adds off you and ALWAYS keep Mend Pet ticking else the damage is too much to heal through.

Here's how I spec'd my Cat for those interested:

Level 62, Loyalty Level 6 Cat
Growl Rank 7
Bite Rank 8
Claw Rank 8
Dash Rank 3
Cobra Reflexes
Avoidance Rank 2
Natural Armor Rank 8
Great Stamina Rank 3
Rank 2 of all 5 Schools of Magic

That's it, hopefully this information helps some people! Good luck, Have fun!

Commentaire de Lunien

Soloable as a 61 Boomkin, 4.7k hp, 5.6k mana, ~400 spell damage and 14.4% crit. Simply starfire roots dots repeat. keep max distance, first add wont aggro. Not sure about aggro mechanics on other two, but if they come throw treants on them, or barkskin. Used up 75% of mana per colossal

Commentaire de Myseria

Just wanted to give all rogues a heads up, it's soloable after some practising. Did it with my 61 sub rogue.

Use ghostly strike as often as you can and you don't need evasion, but that helps ofcourse. Be sure to land a 3-5 point kidney on 80%, 55% and 30%, and he won't spawn adds. Since Kidney Shot is on a 20 sec cooldown you have to kite him a bit untill the cooldown done. Wait for poisons and rupture to tick out so you can gouge and bandage if you need. Pretty easy once you get the hang of it.

Commentaire de 182258

Solo'ed as 61 BM Hunter.

I guess you could do it MM aswell, but it would be a lot harder because of the lack of Beastial Wrath and especially Intimidation, and not to mention aggro control.

How to do it:

Drop a Freezing Trap and send in pet/Hunter's Mark/Serpent Sting. Intimidation just before 75% and nuke below that point to avoid the first add. Now just pop Beastial Wrath and Rapid Fire and start nuking. When the add at 50% spawns just Multi-Shot if you don't already have aggro due to Mend Pet (which should be on all the time) and the add will run right into your trap. Now just nuke the rest of the way down and forget the last add. Once dead just Feign Death/run or simply kill the adds.

Piece of cake...

Commentaire de 161443

I had a big problem with that quest before 64'th lvl. Why? Because there is only one tip that you must'nt forget: KILL THE FU**IN ADDS!
Tips for a feral druid fight (after 62 lvl):
Pounce, mangle, shred (he unstuns). Try to reach 5 combo, maim. At this point you can try turning to bear form, but I would suggest another 5 combos, Rip. Just after stunning you use Barskin, Regorwth, and Rejuvenation, turn to Bear. Just after that, add is spawned. KILL HIM IMMEDIATELLY! Try mangle's and swipe's. There is possibility, that colossus is going to be too much painfull and your health bar is nearly empty. Bash, Regrowth, Rejuvenation, Bear.
With theese tips you'll possibly defeat the big one. Remember to Innervate yourself when you see that your mana is low. It saves ass.

Commentaire de 123301

Easily soloed as full frost mage lvl 62.

These guys can be snored and frozen. If you keep distance between them and you there's a chance that adds will ignore you.

Anyway - the process is simple:

Max distance - Pet - IV+trincket and Frostbolting to death. Occasionally stop to freeze.

When you kill him - just run away from adds. They despawn - you loot the corpse. Nice and easy.

Good Luck!

Commentaire de 191792

As a 61 Affliction Lock i soloed this, just send in vw to take agro dot the bastard up, fire shadow bolts into him. Wait for him to aggro on to u and then fear him. His adds wouldnt cause much of a problem dot and use howl or death coil to get them off ur by the time they get bak 1 shadow burn'll take em down. Its tough but certainly possible.

Commentaire de Bengarion

That is correct.

You no longer can kite them - that was 'fixed' in one of the last patches.

Raging Colossus
Level: 63
Classification: Elite
Health: 16,000

Raging Shardling (adds)
Level: 62 - 63
Health: 2,600 - 2,700

Soloed as lvl 62 Druid

How to:

Pull the Colossus with faerie fire
Go into bear form, pop Enrage, Demo shout and trinkets
Nuke him down to the point where he shrinks and spawn a shardling
Here is the tricky part: Now you need to Bash the Colossus, DO NOT BASH WHILE HE IS ENRAGED! Now you run away from him and root him. If necessairy, pop barkskin to avoid spell casting knockback from shardling. Now, nuke down the shardling in cat form. When it is dead, heal yourself, be mana efficient (First aid is your friend)
Go into bear form, pop Enrage, Demo shout and trinkets
Same procedure over again till he shrinks down to shardling size.
This time don't care about the shardling and nuke down the Colossus
No reason to kill the last shardling, just disengage it.

Hope this helps and good luck

Not the easiest thing to do, but solo'd as a 62 prot paladin. Gear is mix of hellfire penin quest reward and 2 pieces from Ramp.

Judge wisdom to start, then pop seal of light. Judge light when it gets low, then pop seal of wisdom. Repeat. Key is to stun the mob @~77%, 52%, and 27%. I have 5/5 spiritual focus, so I was able to heal during the fight whenever I was low. You really only need to consecrate when you stun the mob and reckoning isn't up during that time. Crucial the mob gets below add spawn % before stun is up. I found that I actually had to chill out for a bit and stop attacking to get my hoj to get off CD in time.

Would end the fight with ~30% mana

5988 health
7750 armor
4820 mana
+47 defense rating from gear
6.4% dodge
6.87% parry and block
576 ap
145 +spell
Thrallmar honor rep axe.

Soloed as a 62 ret paladin in crap green gear. Pretty easy. Had to use 1 health pot, then bubble/bandage, finally use LoH. Quest completed in 5 hours due to the CD of LoH :-)

Commentaire de 200153

this was pretty annoying as a lock... everytime i would fear they would either reset when they were low or run into more monsters

I soled this Quest as a lvl 61 full frost talent mage, its all about the nova then the smashing out as much damage as you can then summoning your Water Elemental and using Nova with that again so once the nova is done again yet again smash out as much as you can, basically then use cold snap nova and again
should get it done solo this way :D
just thought i would comment
**Note**
I had:
6841 Mana
4716 Health

Commentaire de Majintom

Solo'd on a level 62 fire mage, just drag the first mob around a little while you kill him, jump spin and fire blast, carry on running until your Frost nova has cool'd. Wasn't very hard, the little adds don't pull if you just keep running or keep your distance. Didn't die at all while doing it :D

Commentaire de Shaint

Very easy to solo as lvl 61, even lvl 60 enhc shaman
with the new patch just drop ur boost totems, NUKE and let the spirit wolves do all the tanking. If ur running low on health just cast an instant healing wave with maelstorm

Commentaire de 231753

He will create the adds at 75%, 50% and 25% health. A well timed stun or fear will prevent the add from being spawned. Also, the adds won't aggro if you're not close to them when they spawn.

Commentaire de 40967

Easily soloable as a 63 deep frost mage in starting OL greens/blues. As others said, the only real problem is to kite them around such that you don't accidentally lead them out of their 'zone'. Apart from that, keep moving, use FN when it gets close and/or CoC (if you do happen to get the adds) and just DPS it down.

For me, it took 2-3 Frostbolts + FB between every add (cast, blink / run to max distance, cast, etc).

Commentaire de Gant

This quest needs a Segil reward! D:

Commentaire de Starkie

Solo'd as a level 63 Ret Paladin.

You're not even going to have to use a DS or Lay.

Engage, and make sure to use your HoJ and SoC crit right away, and use that time to get in as many good hits as you can, and he shouldn't summon his first add until he is at or a bit below half health, at this point, disengage him and kill the add, once the add is dead, you'll probably notice your health has taken a bit of a dive, so use a Holy Light or two, and then continue to beat this guy down, by the time he summons his 2nd add, you should have him one or two good hits away from death, so finish him off and then kill the add, and done.

I usually had about half mana left over when I was finished, so mana was never really a problem.

This was done in quest greens and like 2 instance blues.

Commentaire de FarseerLolotea

Soloed as a 62 ret pally in quest greens. Judge, heal, Divine Storm, rinse, repeat. And watch out for their knockdowns.

Also, confirmed that they can no longer be kited to Telhamat.

Commentaire de 268652

Solo'd as 64 blood DK, after a few tries. Ignore the adds until they're all there, then clean up using your ghoul and DnD while focusing on the main guy.

Make sure you pop cooldowns -- mark of blood, dancing rune weapon, etc -- icebound fortitude also helps a ton, but save it for 50% when you need to start tanking adds.

Commentaire de 309179

Easy solo as 61 frost mage, but I'm having lots of trouble on my rogue :(. If your class has good CC and doesn't take much dmg then it's soloable, but otherwise just get a group, there are plenty of dks running around HF so it shouldn't be to hard to get a group xD

Commentaire de 125962

Soloed as a lv 64 feral druid, easy.

The way i did it was...
Pounce, beserk, 5 point combo w/rip, 5 point combo w/ferocious bite.
Used that defense roots thingy, let the first add-on get cc'd then back away abit to keep outta his range.
Keep mangling/raking the colossal and when he spawns the second add, maim him.
Barskin. :D
Kill the second and third adds, heal if needed.
Then finish the colossal. Run from or kill the first add.

hope this helps

Soloable as 63 ele shaman, although not super easy. drop totem of wrath and stoneclaw totem, pull the giant and let the stoneclaw get the adds, drop it again if you need to, and be careful of casting chain lightning or thunderstorm as it will just pull the adds back to you. Otherwise just shock and lightning bolt the giant, and heal yourself.

Commentaire de Powdercake

While you are completing this, you will probably get a Crimson Crystal Shard from one of the Colossal Giants. This starts the quest Crimson Crystal Clue. You turn this quest in at Cenarion Post, the same place you got the Colossal Menace quest.

This leads to another quest, called Natural Remedies. For this quest, you must go to the green summoning circle at (13,40) and use the Seed of Revitalization. This will summon a level 63 elite called Goliathon. Goliathon acts like any of the other Colossal Giants and spawns shards.

After killing Goliathon you can turn the quest back in at Cenarion Post. You get the 5 gold 80 silver and the choice of Golden Cenarion Greaves, Studded Green Anklewraps, Destroyers' Mantle, or Verdant Handwraps.

definatly soloable as a night elf. you can dump the aggro from the adds after you kill the colossus with shadowmeld and then they return to the corpse and vanish. it worked on my shadowpriest, i psycic screamed when the last add had spawned then ran away and shadowmelded, then looted once the adds had vanished.

Commentaire de 323472

Soloed as enhancement shaman. I'm pretty pimped with heirlooms(maces, chest and shoulders), but I had 100% health after the fights so it should be okay as long as you've got outland greens. If you have a bit of time on your hands, wait for wolf cooldown and every giant should be a breeze. Save Shamanistic Rage for when all the little buggers have spawned, you won't take much damage before then anyways. Maelstrom chainlightning from the moment the first spawns, to make sure you can take them down quicker when the first's down.

I also did one or two without wolves, although with sham rage. Stoneclaw totem is a lovely friend. I'm tauren tho, so I did a racial stomp too, but it's prolly possible without if you're less sleepy and more concentrated than I was :P

It's worth noting that, since this is a "slay 5" quest instead of a "get x of y item" there's no good reason not to do this as a group, provided one is available. Considering the Libram, Idol, and Totem rewards to this quest are some of the few of their kind pre-WotLK, you'd be well advised to find a pally to tank, druid to heal, and shammy for DPS, or some other combination thereof. This way everyone gets an otherwise very hard to acquire rare item for their class.

And I agree, definitely needs a Sigil reward too. My 68 (currently a Blood/Frost almost even split, but previously Unholy) DK is getting tired of this Dark Rider one. Maybe some sort of a +10% Rune Tap or something?

Just wanted to update that as of 3.3.5 in full BoA Heirlooms (Shoulder, Chest, Weapon, Trinkets -everything enchanted) I had no problem soloing these guys as a feral tank spec druid.

I just ran in normal, used demoralizing roar, faerie fire, mangle, and maul. Made sure to keep my debuffs. When the little add spawns, I focused fired him down, and then returned to the big guy.

I also had glyph of Maul so I was always able to do damage to both. I didn't bother healing mid-fight with improved leader of the pack on, I usually got to about half health, and I burned no cooldowns. A quick heal between fights, and I was all set.

I know at least two other strategies for soloing this have been provided for druids, but for me it seems as those both of those are over thinking this relatively easy quest, or perhaps it's just that they were given before WotLK, but I figured I'd put in my strategy as well.

As far as the Hellfire group quests go, this has got to be one of the easiest, as a druid, it requires just a little bit of knowledge to know how to down the colossi without dying yourself.

All you need to solo this as a druid is a feral spec.
First, cast hots on yourself, switch into bear form, and pull a colossus while being careful not to pull more than one.

Then mangle/maul the colossus until he shrinks and a smaller, non elite colossus appears, at this point, you still shouldn't have to heal yourself.

Now it is important to take out this smaller colossus before resuming attacking the elite. If you ignore all of these non-elites, they will come back and bite you in the bum later, trust me ;^)

If you find that you are below 50% health at this point feel free to hop into caster form and regrowth/rejuve, after the non-elite is dead. Go back into bear form and dps until the second non-elite appears, and repeat the process until you've killed the colossus.

EDIT:: Essentially the same thing as Fenris posted a few days before me =) I'd just like to say that you DO NOT need boa gear to do this with this strategy, outland quest greens work fine for this.

I soloed them with 3 characters now at lvl 62, they are easy as mage, warlock and shammy:)

Commentaire de Wearloga

easy to solo on my 61 Druid (feral tank). Wait until the colossus is about half down, heal up and activate thorns. easy as pie.

Commentaire de philcolwill

Solo'd as a 62 DK (Unholy) , same method as the quest 'The Rock Flayer Matriarch' ... I am really starting to like these Peon Sleep Potions !

Commentaire de 491283

With Victory Rush, these guys are a breeze as a warrior. Killing the adds asap activates VR so you can heal around 30% from each one. Or you can focus the elite and use VR on the adds to heal up afterward. Solo'd as a 62 prot warrior in heirloom shoulders and chest, finishing at full hp each time.

Commentaire de 745297

Soloing this as 62 Frost DK with quest gear. Be sure to use pestilence as soon as they spawn, then HC and back up to heal. It's a sketchy fight each time, but doable if you are paying attention. ;)

Commentaire de Charlotte217

Soloed this as a level 62 Survival hunter. Kill the adds as soon as they come up. If you don't, you'll barely make it through. Make sure your pet attacks the adds too to reduce the chance that he will reduce the Colossal's health any more and trigger more adds. If you get overloaded, use feign death (Shouldn't be necessary). Also, the adds drop health quickly. Lastly, mend pet is going to be necessary multiple times.

Commentaire de 722851

I thought I would add my comments. I completed a quest last night that required me to kill 6 of these. I found that they were group (2 players at least) but was kindda thinking that could give it a try and see.

Since I am a Paladin of equal level to the mob, my thoughts I should be able to hopefully hold my own, and I did. I was in Protection Spec and with careful use of Holy power was able to keep myself up and take down them down and handle the adds.

Mana is a concern but as long as you use the Holy Power and Mana in balance that you don't get to a point where you are feeling stressed or your about to loose it.

Good fun mob, I think non Plate wearing toons might find it a little harder... maybe!

I did it alone on Mage level 63 like this:
- Mirror Image
- "spam" him with Pyroblast until he become small
- Blast Wave
- and Flamestrike until he dies

Commentaire de Felixkik

No tanks no healers, we did it as 2 level 61 fire mages. But sure we need some snack between battles :) and sure our mirror images were there.

Commentaire de 732612

Solo'd with my 61 prot paly. Had to let cooldowns reset before start new one. It was a lot of fun

Commentaire de cefm

Soloable if you can either cc the ads, root the main, or survive the spike in damage at the end.

I solo'ed as a 64 Enh Shaman. Not impressive, I know, but I don't know if I would have done it reliably before then.

EarthClaw glyph prevented a lot of incoming damage and allowed me to kill them all off. Since I wasn't using a ton of magic could use the healing surge when needed (2-3 times per fight).

I'd think any group of 2 shouldn't have trouble at all. Watch out for roamers though, as getting 2 on you can be hairy!

Commentaire de anonymousforever

I did this on my own as a Level 61 Elemental Shaman (main spec: Restoration).

As long as you take them one at a time, any class capable of healing can do this. I just watched out for my health, and healed (healing surge to be specific) every time it got below 80% cause believe me they hit hard and your HP moves down fast. In case of emergency, I recommend doing all your damage on the raging colossus and not the ads that spawn, so if you die, you might still have gotten a kill. It only requires 5 which is pretty easy. But if one is close to the other, and it gets pulled, the second one may also get pulled. So again, pick ones that are isolated and far away from the others.

Good luck, the reward is definitely worth it, as the relics are pretty nice, especially the shaman one.

For shamans, I recommend putting in the slot (of the relic) the stormjewel gem (red) that gives 20 plus intellect.

Solo'd this as a 62 MM Hunter. I did one at a time, pulling towards the mountains. Heal between mobs, and watch for the mini's that come at you; My Spider Freddie never dropped below 5600 health.

I felt it was a rather fun and challenging quest.

ETA: Fel Reaver does walk by the edge of the ridge, so be careful.

Commentaire de 885261

The Raging Colossus is now no longer Elite, making this chain very easy.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

If you can't use any of this stuff, the weapons sell to vendors for 4.5+ gold and the totem, libram and idol are < 2g each.

kite them into the temple to the third set of stairs where the guards are. feign death.
watch the guards pwn or join in. rinse, repeat.

- miners, you can mine the dead elites for such things as mote of earth

damn it. I draw them to the temple and got the first hit. but after the guards kill the guy, it's not counted into my kill! what's going on?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Allakhazam's information is correct. I tried to get this quest at lvl 60 but couldn't until I reached 61.

Arcteryx lvl 61 Warlock <Ravenholt>

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Dunno coords but its a huge freakin red shard in the ground north of quest start, hard to miss it. The colossals hang around there.
Soloe'd as a 61 full frost mage. With water elemental out I could push out more than enough dps to kill it, just needed to kite it once (shatter = insane dps). Ignore the little dudes, just focus all your dps on the elite and once he's dead just run away. On average cost me ~3k mana to kill one (hardly anything). When Elemental was on cooldown I did Keep Thornfang Hill Clear quest, fast xp that way.

Solo'ed with a 61 FireMage. Just hit&run dude ^^ (died twice)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

very easy solo of the whole quest 64 prot warrior decent gear pretty much just quest reward green items from hellfire peninsula
Just charge and spam devastate and revenge whenever its up

sometimes i needed a heal pot or last stand

on the big boss on the last quest pretty much shield wall back to crystal to avoid adds from knockback

at the end of the fight i used a heal pot then last stand and hes down

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Just soloed this as a 61 frost spec mage. As long as you are far enough away (i.e frost nova/CoC/blink).. the little adds don't aggro.. just keep kiting them back across the road and hit them with ice bolts to keep them slowed down..

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Easy to do.
Just lure them to Temple Of Telhamat and guards will do the rest :p

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I was able to solo these as a combat swords rogue (t3 gear). Just used AR, evasion and burned them down. Between cooldowns I was able to solo one while crippling kiting him between kidneyshot cooldowns and bandaging once. Doable with skill, probably best to get a group though. These should be easily soloable for any ranged class.

Soloable as a lvl 61 Protection specced Paladin with Outland Blue and green quest rewards (Still have a couple of pre Outland items - gloves and boots)

Basically as soon as an ability / spell is off cooldown use it. Had to use bubble (Divine Shield) once out of the 5 kills to heal.

For some reason I never got more than 1 additional spawn. With my other alts I always seemed to get 2 additional spawns and I was never able to solo them (DK, Lock, Mage and Druid). Maybe they've nerfed the quest? Dunno

Commentaire de Allakhazam

These can no longer be kited. I tried to fear-kite one to the road to Zangar, but it evaded and ran back before I even got it to the road.

Look out for the Fel Reaver - its path runs right through this area, and it really isn't fun to get a colossus down to 10%, only to see the stupid thing right behind you.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Quite easy to solo these guys... just did it under 20 minutes with a 61 Lock 41/0/11.

Just keep 'em feared, and follow them everywhere.

Happy hunting

Commentaire de Allakhazam

While I appreciate all the remarks about how easily this quest can be soloed, I must confess that my results have been strikingly different.

I've tried to solo this with a level 63 BM hunter (and came back later at 65), and could not do it.

I've tried to solo this with a level 63 shadow priest (and came back later at 65), and could not do it.

I've tried to solo this with a level 63 fire mage (and came back later at 65), and could not do it.

I've tried kiting them. I've tried going toe to toe. I've tried fire, frost, arcane, and shadow -- all with no luck at all.

Each time I've had to simply let this quest (and the follow ups) go by undone.

Follow up:

I finally managed to kill my 5 colossi with my level 69 Fire Mage, but only with great effort and many failures. I spent much time making that graveyard run in black and white. Twice I killed my guy, only to die myself. My hat is off to all of you who managed this quest with ease.

Because of the shardlings that spawn, aggro me, do NOT drop easily, hit frickin hard, distract me from giants and felguard and get me killed.
Will try and kite them.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

This quest is realy annoying.

62 hunter talking.

I tried the kite-to-telhamat thing but it doesn't seem to work anymore.

You can kite em to a certain point but then they just run back.

Then i tried kiting them but, as expected, it was taking forever to keep running around and also with the little ones coming for you, its hard and takes to long.

Then i thought, %^&* it, lets just kill em. So i started doing that.

Send in pet -> cast bestial wrath -> autoshot + steady shot over and over again.

That worked pretty good until the little ones popped up. Always had trouble there with either me dieing or pet dieing.

I changed it up a little bit by being a small tank and letting the small stonen hit me a little bit before using feign death which made me and pet both survive.

Only problem was that, at the last one, a pesky horde started attacking me when elite was at 50%.

Commentaire de Boxofbeer

To complete this quest you need to slay 5 Colosse déchaîné mobs and then return to Tola'thion at the Cenarion Post.

There are only one location you can find those mobs within - to the north of quest giver's position just across the road.
The quest is actually impossible to solo by the most specs at 61-65. Mobs are elite, hit quite hard and can summon adds after every 20 - 25% HP lost.
Warlocks can beat them easy by keeping fear & dots up on them, just beware of pulling another giants. They also dont summon adds while being feared.
