If Colonal sanders and tyson chicken combine you get a bald guy who runs around tossing chickens with special abilities . He is a new brawlers guild boss.

Comment by Vintus

This fight seemed pretty straightforward when I did it. He runs around throwing three types of chickens.

Electro chickens will create a blue void zone. If you get hit, it does pretty massive damage and knocks you back.

Explosive chickens (metal with rockets on them) seem to kill you instantly if they touch you.

Well fed chickens...I don't know. They followed me around and pecked me. I just ignored them and beat him with plenty of time to spare.

This fight was surprisingly easy compared to Hexos. Even as a ret pally, I spent most of my time out of melee range, dancing to avoid chickens and using only ranged attacks. When he moved into the clear I'd swing by for some melee ability hits. Even out of melee most of the time, his total health is low enough that I killed him with plenty of time to spare this way.

Super easy compared to Hexos. Try to just max your dps while avoiding the chickens and should go down no problem.

Comment by Pwuebear

You are required to dance around to avoid chickens while dpsing him down. He summons three types of chicken: 1) Electrochicken are Armored and summons Electric P.E.C.K. on the ground, doing damage and knocking you back, 2) Explosive Chicken does an AoE explosion with Feathery Detonation after a few seconds (these are your main concern), and 3) Well Fed Chicken follows you around meleeing you for increasing damage through Endurance Training.

Tips & Tricks:
Turning off nameplates can be a huge help to avoid getting into range of Explosive Chicken by accident. Also, beware that the void zones and knockback from Electric P.E.C.K. can get you killed by Feathery Detonation quite easily. Mages can spellsteal Endurance Training. Feathery Detonation also deals damage to Electrochicken.

After somehow one-shotting Hexos I failed at this boss on my first try. It seems that the explosive chickens spawn towards the outer edge of the room, so be careful of where you are standing while nuking the boss as I learned the hard way!

Comment by AwesomeShaman

Just did this guy for the first time as a monk. Anyone that is able to get past Hexos legitimately should have have issues with this guy, but here is what I know anyway.

Explosive chickens are the only really deadly ones. I was able to outheal the melee chickens no problem with just expel harm and chi wave.

He definitely takes damage from the chickens in some form but I was not able to figure it out. Either he can be electrocuted or the exploding chickens do damage, but I only did ~7 million damage to him and he has ~11 million health, so something else did over 35% of his health.

Comment by wowSaeth

Explosive chickens DO damage him a LOT! You can and should use them like the rockets from GG engineering.

As a sv hunter I single-dps'd him at first, then switched to a few AOEs and a couple chickens did the job for me!

Also, don't let well fed chickens hit you too much, they do little damage but often, and can be dangerous towards the end.

Comment by MrWeirdGuy

Mages: You can spellsteal Endurance Training from Well Fed Chickens. Makes the fight a complete joke.

Killed by Rogue without any problems. Just strafing and blind rotation all the time.

This fight was incredibly easy after Hexos. He doesn't even try to walk into melee with you. Keep either your earth elemental and a magma down, or an earthbind down and you can basically ascendence+spiritwalkers grace your way to victory.

The key to winning is to keep the chickens slowed and away from you. Thunderstorm is ideal for this, so glyping it to be quicker may help.

Good luck, and may the sovereign grace of the Earthmother guide your footsteps.

WARNING : In this fight you don't have to hold the right button of your mouse and turn your character , if you keep doing this , you may need to see a doctor as you probably have the HEXOS disease.

For a warrior a recomend to have Shockwave and Piercing howl talents.

After being stuck on this guy for longer than I intially thought, I just stuck closer and always tried to nip away at him on melee every chance I got. 516 Fury Warrior.

Ran in, Hamstrung him, unloaded everything, then had Intimidating Shout do its work (Tremble in place instead of flee). Tyson can be slowed and feared but not disarmed.

Of course feel free to drop a well-fed chicken now and then so you can Victory Rush off it if health warrants that. Otherwise avoiding the smaller exploding chickens proved to be the hardest thing for me. But if you whail on him at the beginning of the fight, you can take some time to dodge, not rush (as much), and Execute him down before enrage. Charge and Heroic Leap were very helpful for this fight.

If any melee are having trouble with this post patch 5.4, it's the legendary cloak proc which is instantly killing the rocket chicken in melee range. I had to do this fight with no cloak equipped.

Comment by Dawnrider

screw him and his chickens. I 576 Windwalker. I summoned Xuen, dpsed as hard as I could until he got a buttload of chickens out, then i just spammed Jade Lightning on him, taking a few sun kicks when ever he was far enough away from them. Jade Lightning killed him.

Comment by drproffesorjack

Is this trying to say that Tyson chicken nuggets contain actual chicken?

Comment by 1297919

The explosive chickens would be easy enough to avoid on their own...

The electrical chickens don't do much damage...

BUT the electrical chickens' knockback CAN and WILL knock you directly toward an explosive chicken that's about to explode. That's been responsible for about 90% of my deaths so far.

Comment by Silvansaria

THIS is a Rank 8 fight?

...what the hell?
Okay - well - here's what I did:

I stood in the middle and unleashed everything I had + stampede on him while Rapid Fire, Kill Command, and Bestial Wrath. I ran around the ring a few times avoiding chickens and killed him.

The end.

I wish I could get someone to comment on here with some updated changes. Seems like before no one was worried about well fed chickens because they did little damage, but now they are dropping my health very fast with around 30-40k damage per peck. I'm lasting less than a minute for this fight and I'm barely getting damage in on Tyson.

Comment by lizardo

If you are a WW monk just throw out your clones at the exploding chickens to avoid taking any chances with them.
I suggest popping all your CDs right off the bat and try to burn him down before he gets too many chickens out.
Also touch of death right = win.

Comment by IMWazo

For level 100, any locks having trouble just spec into Demonic Servitude, get your abyssal out and enjoy a free win. All chicken will go for him and you can just raid boss him from afar.

As a boomkin... I switched into kitty form, danced around the chickens while DPSing him down, and whenever a well-fed chicken came out I sprinted or used stampeding roar to run like hell until they were killed by other chickens. Frankly, as long as you can get away from the well-fed chickens this fight is extremely easy. It's unfortunate that you need a lot of speed for this fight, which is very class-specific... Those chickens are extremely broken at the moment, likely an overlook from the stat squish, and it really needs to be fixed.

Comment by 1433112

Just beat this guy as a rogue, was having trouble until I realized you can kite his exploding chickens into his well fed chickens and electro chickens and they all die. Makes the fight a lot more simple, just kite the exploding chickens into everything while focusing tyson.

Comment by Bloodlus

Here is a good guide for this fight! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQcVSDVyxCM&list=PLitzTzqFu2v4N3nQK7u8rKTEFus9IJGgo

Comment by Jornak

He's stunnable -> Less chickens to deal with.
As a ret pally this gave me a chance to do some close quarters damage before getting back to distance, to avoid the adds.

Comment by Tytios

For those that want to kill every boss before they gone in the legion pre-patch and, like me, want to know if is needed to folow any tacticts to kill this boss: as elemental shaman 738, just nuke :)

Used Primal Fire Elemental with glyph so it is up every fight, Brawler's Draenic Intellect Potion, Ring, Ascendence, Elemental Mastery and Spiritwalker's Grace (in case you really need to move)

Hope this could save time to someone!

Comment by NessieMo

If, like me, you were only doing these Level 3 fights to get the Clock'em battle pet, purchased via Clock'em from Quackenbush or Paul North, note that the criteria has changed.

You do NOT need to achieve Level 4 - it's now available for purchase at Level 3!
