When it dies you can loot the body to recover some of the materials, just like a target dummy.

Wildhorn's edit: This is no more the case since 3.2

Junk item, not worth the materials to make as it is a pulse and doesn't really help to detect anything.

With the material cost I was suprised and disappointed that the item was used when releasing the bot. I assumed that it would have a cooldown similar to a battlestandard, but it doesn't.

The one time I made one it expired before a rogue came by.

Kommentar von Icemelt

I can't believe this is a consumable. Yet another engineering disipointment.

Looking forward to epic flying mount creation :)

It has its uses: I've been trying to get a screenshot of myself surrounded by as many combat and non-combat pets as possible, assuming Goblin Engineers can use these if bought. Anyone know if I missed any pets? My current list:

1) My bear (Hunters FTW)
2) Explosive Sheep
3) Compact Harvest Reaper
4) Scarlet Tracking Hound (from Dog Whistle that drops in SM)
5) Goblin Bomb Dispenser
6) Arcanite Dragonling (60 second cooldown on other dragons when used, so I didn't include the others)
7) Barov Peasant Caller
8) Gnomish Alarm-O-Bot

THIS is what the Shaman Sentry-Totem should do.

Need more info on this little fella. So far:

He is a consumable, don't be fooled by the '(10min cooldown)'.
He lasts 10 mins and then dies.
You can loot the remains once it is dead. The one time I waited that long I received all my mats back minus one thorium bar. Not too bad, recycle I say. However, this can have some looting problems, just like target dummies, if you log or change areas before the 10mins are up (eg. dying in an battleground or instance),
Pulses occur approximately every 5 seconds.This seems way too long to be useful to me.
The area of effect seems to be about the same as a large engineering explosive effect. This is centred around the bot.
He follows you around. Much better than being stationary.
He makes a mechanical whirring sound with an explosive noise at every pulse.
At 302 engineering he was level 53. No idea how much health he has.

Complete base materials are:

10xThorium Bars
2xRunecloth
4xRugged leather
1xStar Ruby (for the siren light)
6xCopper bars and a jewelcrafter (for 3xCopper wires)
2xEssence of Fire

Of course you can always use a fused wire from other looted engineering devices and save on the last two materials.

Kommentar von Thottbot

What would you use it for? It seems horrendously expensive for something that only lasts ten minutes.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You use it for helping to point out stealthed enemies trying to get the drop on you. And its not really a waste because you get all the mat's back if you loot it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

You say you get all parts back. Is it then possible to remake them to lvl up your enginering? At no cost at all?

Kommentar von Thottbot

i made 1 yesterday and when i looted it, i got 2 heavy leater and 1 bronze framework =/ so big loss in mats i'll stick with my Catseye Ultra Goggles when i know a rogue is around cus' i'm not putting out ~8g in mats every time a rogue tries to gank me, even if he does, let him have the HK and i'll save my money for something else =P

Kommentar von Thottbot

Wow, this was the most expensive engineering point I have ever paid for. I looted back 4 thorium bars, 1 rugged leather and 1 fused wiring. That's it. Cost 10 thorium bars to make... on my server thorium bars sell for over 1G per bar. Rugged leather is expensive as well as other mats. This is ridiculous. Should be a long cooldown like most other items, not single use. C'mon blizzard, either make this FAR cheaper to make, or get rid of the STUPID single use.

I definately won't me making one again. I'ld rather get killed.

Kommentar von Thottbot

it would have been a good item if it wasn't expendable, example: trinket with a 10min cooldown

Kommentar von Thottbot

I'm a lvl 43 Blood Elf hunter so this robot is usless for me because i have flairs that show me invisible targets, but i was reading all the comments and evry one was complaining about the fused wring. that stuff is so freaken easy to get, yea its annoying to farm for it when you need some anf dont have any but i use my advanced target dummys all the time, if i play dead to soon i pop the target dummy and it gives me the chance to lay my traps and a goblin land mine and get my cool down, ive ogtten 5 of these without even trying, and becides engeneering was never about making things that are amaizingly usefull, engeneerings about having fun. and BTW ive got a lbl 52 mithril dragonling! i love it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well, actually In this patch, there's supposed to be a way for us to MAKE fused wiring.

Kommentar von Thottbot

the thing to make the fused wiring is a high end chem. though...

Kommentar von Thottbot

You see that's why you become goblin! You don't need a blasted robot to POINT things out for you. you need a gun to flame down the stealthy critters. So why don't you use a Goblin Dragon Gun simply spin in a circle and anyone near will be detected! AND you do some damage with it!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lol i can't even sell my fused wiring for 2g at AH >.<

Kommentar von Thottbot

A nice little toy, though the mats are a bit expensive. However, as a mage, it's really no use to me... I have a macro on Arcane Explosion, so that when I hold ctrl and hit it I cast rank 1. So, I'm pretty much one of these that can do damage and can get clearcasting if I find one. No real point for a mage, but for, say, a warlock, this could be killer.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Can it be used in Arena?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Its real use is in things like AB or AV.

...well, for me, just AB. Back before all this Arena nonsense.

Go forth, grab a flag (or strategically placed chokepoint through which stealthies have to come), drop your Bot, and just sit back.

Any further detection of stealthed players will thus require less effort on your part. A good stealthed player will not let you know they're on the way.

Kommentar von Thottbot

FINALLY,something that can help me not get ganked by those damn rogues

Kommentar von Thottbot

2 words....

USE-LESS!

Kommentar von Thottbot

well if u wanna get the edge against a rogue or feral druid this is very useful but until blizzard makes the mats more reasonable don't really bother making one unless u wanna look cool (or like a fool) for 10 min or until someone kills it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

i think this is way better use than the gnomer ones that aggro everything to you

Kommentar von Thottbot

I play an Undead Rogue on Skullcrusher, and I was on the wrong end of one of these things in WSG. A Gnome Frost Mage was using it and I couldn't get near the little bugger without this thing going off. After it popped me out of stealth I immediately vanished but it pulsed and I was just as quickly exposed again. So, I turned my attention from the Gnome to his machine and I was surprised at how much punishment the little thing could take. I'm basically a 59 twink Rogue and even though I DID destroy the alarm o bot, I couldn't do so before the mage had reduced me to very low health. Shortly after I destroyed the little toy, the mage finished me off. At least I know I made him spend some money. >:/In light of this and other similar events, I decided to switch from Skinning/Leatherworking to Engineering/Leatherworking. I'm currently at 245 engineering and would like to know if you have to be a Gnomish Engineer to USE this item, or just to craft it? If anyone knows please speak up. Thanks in advance.

Kommentar von Thottbot

im a rogue goblin engineer and can make them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Good in arena

Kommentar von Thottbot

you just have to craft it. doesn't require gnomish.

best place I know where to get fused wirings is gnomeregan off the robots. expecially the spider looking ones. those drop them alot. I walked out with 10 in 1 run

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Single use or cooldown?

If a cooldown, how long?

UR

Kommentar von Allakhazam

you people are idiots, or were idiots if your still alive or playing this year.

As a rogue I hate this thing in WSG or any pvp, HATE IT.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

it says there is a10 min cooldown... does that mean its reusable now, oyu you gotta wait 10 min between using the stack of them?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I just started engineering with a new alt pally, and I was wondering how useful this is in the battlegrounds. For example, setting it in a hiding spot and using it to detect ninjas trying to take a flag or sneek up on a unsuspecting duo. Any info would be extremely useful.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It's single use it's garbage bleh why make such an expensive and mostly useless toy as range is terrible

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This item is single use, but when it dies/expires, you can loot almost all of the parts back so you can make it again.

This is really useful if you want to build up your engineering points without having to make a ton of full-set items. Just make this, wait 10 minutes, and loot the parts... then make it again. You get full credit each time. It seems to lose one thorium bar each time for me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

it is pretty uselss, but it is cute!

remember to loot it after it poofs, like the target dummies. it returned most of the parts to me.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I have made many odd devices in my time. This is however as close to useless as any of them have come.

It's a single use thing that will disappear after 10 min OR as soon as you are killed. I spent loads buying the schematic, like 10G in parts making one, triggered it, got overrun in Hillsbrad and that was that.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

as a hunter engineer this is the most worthless thing you could spend gold on. We have track hidden, and it doesnt cost an insane amount of gold for schemata or parts. I guess if you were a different class it could come in handy? then again maybe not.
