The "suggested players" should say 7 and not 4. It is not an easy event, bring at least one and a half groups.

There are three waves of mobs and the final boss.

The first wave is a zerg of level 69+ elites. Second wave is two huge eyes that do nasty magic damage (they can be silenced/kicked/etc). Third wave are 4 or 5 high lords that hit really really hard.

The boss is a simple tank and spank, so if you make it through the 3 waves of mobs, you should be home free. :)

This is easy as long as you have the right group make up, everyone's on the ball, know what to do, and have at least five rather than four. I did this with a feral druid tank, arms warrior tank, tree druid, enhancement shaman healer, and a warlock. I really reccomend having at least two tanks and two healers for this. It might be doable with one healer if everyone plays smart. The warlock was also nice for the first wave because he could enslave one of the demons.

The first wave is pretty simple. A bunch of demons and blood elves spawn and you basically take them down. As far as I know they are not CC'able, with exception to enslave.

The second wave is two eyes which do a mean mind flay. Interrupt them when they do that as soon as possible to help save the healer's mana.

The third wave has four fire lords which are blood elf npc's who have a ton of hp and cast flamestrike. This is the fight you have to be on the ball on. It is preferable to have each tank on two of the npc's. Whenever one of the npc's start to cast flame strike, the tank on them and any melee DPS on them need to MOVE. This is pretty universal for any flamestriking mob, but since flamestrike is a ground target spell, its possible to dodge it if you get out of its area of effect (the center of its target when it starts casting, the area of the effect will not follow the person if they move after the cast begins) before it finishes casting. If everyone can dodge the flame strikes, this wave is fairly easy.

The last wave, the final boss is a simple straight up fight. He will occasionally do an ae damage/knockback, this is another one that can be dodged by moving away when he does it. The casting animation looks like he's casting a shadow spell, so its fairly easy to spot. If you managed to do the third wave though, this one should be no problem, even if you eat the ae's from the boss.

Enjoy your blue ring reward and flashy new tabard.

Done yesterday, and can say no need of 2 tanks at all but at third wave there is realy need of additional healing for tank.
About recomended 4 players for this quest can say only this is mistake. No matter what gear they wear in 4 players this is simply undoable.
Warlock in group is great advantage because he can not only enslave one of demons but can banish another, thus made 1 st wave way easier. Just have to release demon not to summon his own after all first wave is cleared for quest fails, because enslaved demon disappears in summoning proces.

Comentario de diamondtear

You can do it with one tank, atleast if you have two healers since one of them is going to take on hell of a beating.

If you previously tried the waves, remember to abandon the quest even if it doesn't say (failed), because you cannot complete is otherwise.

For us we also had the quest bug for some reason on a couple of pulls and the floaters spawned way too early.

Comentario de 9387

Yes, this quest is not doable by a 4 man group. I would recomment having at least one and half groups there, or just bring 2 full groups and do it twice. It does not matter if people outside the group tag the mobs, once all the mobs and the boss are dead, you still get credit for it.

You will need at least 2 tanks and at least 2 healers for this. Might be possible to do with 1 tank if he's extremely good, but most likely then your healer will end up tanking a bunch of them. The shaman earth elemental makes a good offtank for this as it aoe taunts them all onto itself and keeps them off the healer, but it goes down quick, and you just have to chain heal to keep it up.

For the first wave, you can enslave and banish the big demons, but make sure that you release them before you kill everything else, or the quest bugs out and fails.

Also, sometimes it bugs out and the 2nd wave spawns right away while you're still fighting the first one, and that will most likely lead to a wipe.

Comentario de 6833

Completed this quest:

Druid & paladin healing, warrior tanking, mage & rogue dpsing.
As long as your tank has multi target tanking skills you shouldn't have to worry about this quest at all.

Our mage did die at one point when 2 adds jumped him but that wasn't a big issue.

Just remember to drink inbetween waves and stand in the middle at all time when ooc so the tank doesn't run around after you for adds, and you should have no problems at all.

Comentario de 23774

Ok...first off...THIS IS NOT A 4 MAN QUEST! This quest took us 2 mages in 7//9 Tier 3, 3 priests, two wqho were in tier 3, 2 warlocks, one in 5/9 plagueheart...2 druids, and a warrior...we completed it with ease after getting this many people, but this ISN'T A 4 MAN QUEST BLIZZARD!!!!

Comentario de 26638

On a side note. After the first wave if you have a warlock in your group they can enslave one of the demons. The next wave wont come until the demon is dead, so you have some time to rez/drink/bandage if you keep the target enslaved. When your all ready, just let it go.

Comentario de 26845_

Did this quest with
Feral druid (healing)
Rogue
Mage
Arms warrior
and hunter

Had a few probs with the healing, our rogue died in the 2nd wave, but got combatressed before the boss.. Would've been much easier if I was healing specced, but we managed the Q with some kiting during 3rd wave.

Comentario de 24821

I just spent 2hrs on this quest. I tried w/ this awesome grp I had (5) and got to 3rd wave. But we rallied some friends for out of grp dps and healing, and when it was all over, I didn't get a quest completion. I guess it bugged on me but I'm seriously pissed about this sh!t.

Stated in Patch Notes for Patch 2.1:
Battle of the Crimson Watch: Illidari Mind Breaker has been weakened. Illidari Highlords can now be CC'ed but not Charmed.

Comentario de 28916

If people of the other faction are in the area when you're doing this quest, I'd suggest making an alt and talking to them (if you're on a server that lets you have characters of both factions at least). This event can be completely ruined by one Warlock on the other faction enslaving one of the mobs, then simply holding it until the event resets.

Note that they CAN help you with the event, I've seen it done with a Horde group and an Alliance group. In that case, we just did it once for each group.

The difficulty is also completely out of whack with the other quests in the area. I suggest at least six people unless you want to do it a few times, or you have extremely good gear.

Comentario de 2605

I 3-manned this with a Warrior, Paladin, and Mage. I myself was skeptical that 3 of us would even have a chance. Afterwards though, it didn't strike me as that difficult. O.o All the elite mobs hit for almost nothing.

Comentario de 24821

I did this quest w/ 1 1/2 grps, and I never got credit, which, means I have to redo the whole damn thing unfortunately :(. But hey, 24g ain't bad mang.

Comentario de 7391

We just did it in a group of four.
Holy Pala, Boomkin Druid, Prot Warrior and Frost Mage.
So it's possible with four people. We all have pretty decent gear though. :>

Comentario de 28406

First wave of demons / adds - use defensive gear
Second wave of eyes that do mind flay: use shadow resistance gear.
Third wave of 4 elites: use fire resistance gear.
Final boss: defensive gear, tank and spank.

Comentario de Torabloodscalp

As of the most recent patch (March 7th 2007) This quest may bug on your party and you will have the first 3 waves hit you all at once.

Insta gibbed doesnt quite cover it..

Comentario de 19170

A well balanced 5-man group can beat this if you know what to expect. We had a warrior tank, a priest, a rogue (me), a hunter and a mage.

We had trouble with people lagging when the first group spawned, especially if there was alot of demons. We all mounted up on our flying mounts, minus the tank, for the beginning. When the tank had aggro, we picked them off one by one. They are actually fairly soft for elites.

Next wave, we had the tank stay in the middle, while we went to the North and south sides, since the Eyes spawn east and west. Just keep them interupted during the "focused mind burst" and you should be fine.

The third wave can be CC'd, so we took all the appropriate measures, and killed one at a time.

The last guy is a simple tank and spank fight. Overall, just remember to drink in between fights, try to tank them towards the huge crystal in case of fears, and focus fire ftw.

Comentario de b1ackcat

We did this with a 5-man team, 2 warriors (me one of them), a pally, a mage, and a feral druid

me and the druid went down during the start of phase 3, but the pally had a chance to res me before the boss.

Unfortunately, that area of the map likes to bug out, so I couldn't see anything.

my group managed to 3-man the last 3 mobs of phase 3, kept 1 sheeped, then our incredible kara-geared tank just held them as the mage wanted them and bolted when he had mana.

I still got credit for the fight even though I was ooc the whole boss fight because I couldn't see anything, but afterwards I found out how to fix it.

If you get the bug that results in you not being able to see anything, fly away from the area then fly back, you'll see things again.

note: I did this after the quest was completed, and I have a hunch that doing this during the quest may result in you failing it, since you leave the area.

Comentario de Gutts

note that the first wave is extermly easy if you got a mage let him frost nova them and then AoE them all....they hit 200-700 on warrior but their HP is too low ~5000.

the only hard part here is to let teh tank hold aggro of the attackers.

Comentario de 35923

Doing this with 5 people is possible, but requires proper class balance and very good players.

In a PUG situation with lees than ideal classes (Tank, healer, four warlocks...) we had to keep dragging more people in. With 9 people it's easy, once everyone has had a few practices.

The third wave can be fear kited; just watch carefully to try and avoid the feared mobs pulling any of the elite guardians at the top of the stairs. They are tough, and have a very high respawn so can't be cleared before the event.

Comentario de Kathucka

Some tips: If you die, do a graveyard run. This is a long fight, and there's time to get back. Also, there is some time between waves. Make sure that you drink or bandage at that time.

The first wave is straightforward. There are a ton of scary looking opponents, but they all have low health. Just tank-and-spank. You can use a chain assist to thin their numbers more quickly and keep most of the aggro on the tank, but it's not required. However, you must keep an eye on the healer. One tank can't hold everything. When something goes for the healer, DPS must focus fire on it and kill it.

For the second wave, you get two "Mind Breaker" beholder beast demons. They have a fast-casting mind blast, and a channelled beam DoT. The DoT is brutal and has a cooldown of about 15 seconds. These guys are immune to roots, snares, stuns, fears, and banishes, but they are vulnerable to silence and interruption. Since the DoT is so nasty, you must assign someone with silence or interruption skills to each one of these. They also have a fear spell, so you need an off-tank or pet to keep them off the healer when the tank is feared.

On the third wave, the key is crowd control and protecting the healer again. An off-tank is pretty much required. And, yes, you have to move out of the flame strike.

This event bugged several times for us. The mind breakers popped out early. Three times, this happened when the first wave was being tanked in a corner of the platform, and I ran to the middle to get the range I wanted. So, tank them all in the middle.

Comentario de 18532

I can confirm that standing in the centre (i.e. the red circle) will prevent the bug where two waves spawn on top of eachother it is probably cuased when someone leaves the platform to be safe just use the middle.

Also there is time to drink between each wave :p

Comentario de Toadkiller

EIther use 5 people or way more for this quest. The 6th+ person attacking causes all the waves to spawn at once. Therefore 5 = easy mode, 6-7 kinda a lot harder.
So man up and do it 5 man

Comentario de 2178

Just did this with 5, protection warrior(me), holy priest, arms warrior, and, two warlocks :)

For first wave we enslaved two and banished two, which made this wave a breeze. Some people mentioned that the quest will bug out if you kill all others before banished/enslaved ones, but the sequence went smooth for us, no unexpected bugs.

The two demons in second wave didn't seem to be a problem for us after the nerf. I was the only tank, and our only healer wasn't under pressure. normal tanking gears, ~12khp.

The third wave is a bit tricky, what we did is to mark two to be chain feared by warlocks as soon as we pulled them to the little area behind the crystal, it's safe to do so there. The fight lasts like 2-3min, feared one didn't aggro any mobs :) Also, the flamestrike they cast can be interrupted by shield bash/kick/cs etc, but hits hard (4000ish dmg). They cast a curse on you that increase fire damage taken by 50%, I wasn't sure if the 4k dmg is with that curse's effect or not.

The boss is easy. He did some bad-guy style talk and gesture which gave time for our casters to drink to full mana. lol

So, this is doable with 1 tank and 1 healer, just with two locks. Too bad the rings from rewards kinda sucks....

Comentario de Api3

used 10 ppl for this quest, whas bugged al the time etc, finally we could do it (2 grps did the quest twice)

Comentario de soloking

im not sure where and how to get this...

Comentario de 44953

Managed to 3-man the quest after 2 tries.
Setup was Prot Warrior, Holy Priest and Rogue. Remember to Shadow Resist Buff.

First Wave
Mixed spawn of melee mobs that comes in 2 forms, Humans and Demon forms. Basically tank ran in and grab aggro while healer waits till tank has a sunder on each mob. They don't hit too hard. Meanwhile the rogue would start peeling off the Demonkins first as we noticed they have about 2k less HP then the humanoid version and they're pretty big so we wanted to get better vision as well. Once ya down to the last mob, let healer regen back mana before killing it to trigger the second wave.

Second Wave
This is the wave that gave us the most problems. Spawns 2 x Demons that does a mean mind flay and fears. Key to this fight is to interupt as many mind flays as possible, they can be stunned so thats a huge plus. Rogue would Kick / Kidney Shot / gorge, while warrior Concussion Blows / shield bash. Also to note, as we were 3 manning it, the warrior tanked them similiarly to Onyxia style, getting berzerker rage up as often as possible to avoid fear. If warrior is feared, priest would get all the aggro, just keep healing as the fears don't last too long. Concentrate DPS and take one down asap, then move on to the other. Don't use them to regen mana, as a badly time fear could be a wipe. Quickly move on to the third wave.

Third Wave
4 x humanoid caster style that has quite a good amount of HP and casts FlameStrike for about 2k damage. For this, we got priest to stand in middle while the warrior would tank 3 of them on one side of the priest while the rogue tanked the 4th one on the other side of the priest. Basically we wanted all of us to spread out to avoid FS. Simple fight, rogue quickly kill his while warrior tanks the 3, when you guys see the casting animation, simply just move away from where u're standing as that would be the FS location. Key to this is to not let priest aggro and move out of FS range when ya see the casting animation. Once rogue is done with his, just join the warrior and finish up the remainder.

Last Boss
Cake.. Has a spell reflect that looks like a counterspell animation, and cast a 1k++ shadow damage knockback. Tank him in the middle, when he casts knockback, we just run out of range.. quite alot of HP, classic tank and spank..

Notes
Basically as long as priest does not get aggro and warrior is comfortable with multi tanking, 3 manning is very possible. Priest used alot of binding heals for the fight and had pretty decend mana per second to last the waves. Ideally for all the waves except the second one, possible to tank the last mob while healer gets back mana.

Comentario de 41497

2 quests give total 650 rep with sha'tar..and a good green tabard

done today with 4 ppl...

u need definitely 2 healer and 1 tank..

we were 2 healer shaman + 1 dps warrior (tanked) + 1 mage

it's very easy when no one die....all of the party should be alive...
at least tank..

u can drink and ressurect between the waves..

after 3 waves, the boss spawned...it was quiet easy...slow dps and killed slowly..

Comentario de 41820

we got to wave 3 with 4 people and died horirbly, we then zerged it with 9! yay a new tabard! :P

Comentario de 52527

I tried it several times and always died on 2nd wave ><

So i stopped trying for a while, then tried it again when i had better gear, but died some more...so i thought "thats it" lets 10man this.

We did it 3times cus some ppl did get the credit for the kill.

on our 2nd try we also had the 4guard inc, and two of us die in the 3rd wave, me being one of the tanks lol. Thanks to my guild's mage aoe'd the crap out of the guards.

Finally got rid of that damn quest

PS. 4man my ass!

Comentario de Carkasjak

Very chaotic. Not too hard to be done in a 5 man group, but 4 is pushing it. :P
Easy with a good tank to pick up everything fast or with enough CC to get control of the situation. Feral druids are generally better for multi-target threat generation.
Just mark one mob at a time with a skull for DPSers and use your CC abilities.

Comentario de dautaras

I did this q with a dps warrior a holy priest a feral druid and me a hunter we got wipe the first time because druid forgot to use inervate but the second time we did it so its easy just keep your healer alive

Comentario de 48270

Beware, if you have an old or "bad" video card or little ram these guys have a shadow form that may reduce your FPS to about 2 to even 1 if they are in your screen.

I did this with a group of four the make up was...

Ballador - Prot Pally
Reinwald - Ret Pally
Tumu - Shadow Priest
Twitch (me) - Holy Pally

Easy enough, pugs... id get about 5-7.

Comentario de 13004

You can actually two-man this quest with a good tank and healer.

I did this with my roommate today. Both druids, he's feral, I'm resto. We are decked out in kara gear though.

He did need to battlerez me after I got destroyed by the mindflay thing. Other than that it wasn't too bad.

Comentario de 40031

yeah took us like a half hour to do bc sometimes the spawns stack up :/

to top it all off i didnt get credit for the quest so i have to do again according to the GM :/

Comentario de 55792

We did this with 2 Holy Paladins, 1 Frost Mage and 1 Protection Warrior. Was pretty easy if you got the hang of it, be quick on mana breaks and bring some pots and it's a piece of cake.

Comentario de 45252

Nearly 2 manned this quest. Feral Druid, Holy Priest. A Holy Pally jumped in on the 2nd wave and helped with some heals. After that though, it went smoothly.

Wave 1

Any decently geared tank won't take much damage and can tank all of them. While there was a lot of them they were hitting for about 50dmg on the druid. Hit me (the priest) for about 200dmg. It probably actually worked out better that it was just the druid DPSing as a tank to make it easier to hold everything. It's a given that a tank that can multitank well is pretty essential.

Wave 2

This is the toughest part. Being unable to mitigate the wide range of magic damage that these two Eyes put out makes it a healing intensive part of the fight. I went through a mana pot, my shadowfiend, trinkets and inner focus. On our successful attempt, we brought them down to 10% before I was out of mana. The innervate would have come but I died.

Holy pally came in at that point and picked up the heals which gave the druid enough time to battle rez me.

Wave 3

Simple fight. Tank needs to watch out for the flame strikes, especially with that curse debuff that adds 50% fire damage. Can be deadly if more than one flamestrike is being cast and lands. Healing wise, this wasn't very intensive either except for the odd flamestrike that landed. I managed to rebuff myself and regen from 0 mana to full during this wave.

Boss

Straight forward tank and spank as previously mentioned. Has a good chunk of HP, and hits a bit harder. Some horde swung by waiting for their turn to do this (didn't gank us thankfully!) and helped add some DPS.

Gear-wise, the druid is in mostly blues (heavy clefthoof set), a couple epics from heroics and Earthwarden. Me the priest, mostly heroic epics (3) and the rest just top blues from the normal instances.

Comentario de 62052

Just did this with a 4 Man Group.

Furywarrior in deffequip (Me), Shadowpriest in some Healingstuff, BM Hunter and a Firemage.

The mobs from the first wave hit me für 60-70 Damage, i just used thunderclap and demo shout to tank all of them. It is not bad if one is running to a DD because they don´t do much damage.

For the second wave, as a warrior you should keep spellreflect on cooldown - it saves a lot of the healer´s mana.

Third wave, i just tanked all of them and we focused them one after another.

Boss is just tank´n´spank, nothing big to deal with.

Comentario de wgjared

Did this with 4

1) MS Warr /w Tanking gear
2) Holy Pally
3) Rogue
4) Druid

I'd say it was a mostly blue group and we did fine. Would've been a lot easier if the 5th mage didn't DC right before we started...

Comentario de 80348

Did this with blues group.

1)70 prot warrior
2)70 holy paladin
3)70 hunter, don't know spec
4)69 resto shammy

Really easy. I just spammed thunderclap and demo shout to get aggro at beginning. Then mark one mob and me and the hutner took it down. Rinse and repeat till end.

Comentario de 47965

Not sure if it's been said. But if you previously had the quest, abandon then start it all as a group. Me and another player just got screwed out of the completion because we didn't do that.

I just 2 manned this with a Paladin - Healer, Warrior - DPS, Druid - Tank (I was playing the Druid and Warrior at the same time). Was very simple.

Comentario de 9760

I 2 maned it with a Holy Paladin (me) and an Arms Warrior. Its very simple.
The First Wave: just keep devotion aura on and make sure the Warrior is only doing AOE attacks.
The Second Wave: Keep SR aura on and hold agro.
The Third Wave: Use FR aura and have the Warrior doing the most dmg they can.

Comentario de 77700

3manned this quest with

- lvl70 prot warrior
- lvl70 shammy
- lvl70 lock

Did it first try, wasn't really that hard. Shammy went down once, though.
For the large amount of mobs in some of the waves, you should really try to do as much AOE threat as possible (thunderclap, intimidating shout et al.). The rest is fairly straightforward.

Comentario de 64664

Another bugged quest.
We 'completed' it but I didn't get the complete message for some reason.
And yea I was on the same qst.

Just did this quest today, 2-maned it with an MS Warrior and holy Priest with Kara gear
And its not super easy but if you have a good tank, you will be fine.
I wish blizzard would put more quest like this into the game.

Comentario de 7167

We three-manned this today. Feral druid tank (me), holy priest, and affliction warlock. The priest died when we got an add thanks to some other people who flew in, but she soulstoned back to life and it was all pretty easy. We're all in Karazhan/heroic/SSC gear so that helped.

Just did this with a Prot Paladin, Resto Shammy and myself (Combat Rogue). Couldn't have been any easier.

Comentario de Deewy

To all of you who whine about people who are complaining about the quest's difficulty, look at the patch in which they posted on. This Q used to be really challenging when BC had just came out, since it was harder and people couldn't acquire gear with such a ease like nowadays. :)
Remember doing it with 7 people, 2 people who werent on the group outside of the group.

Comentario de 168703

Well, a friend and I managed to two man this quest. After a good load of tries, in which I DC'd once and we still did ok when I got back and through lots of glitches that reset the quest we did it. I was so proud, we're both pretty much T4 equivalent+.

The challenge was fun, mate is a druid healer and I am a hunter. Pet tanking ftw :D Felt so good afterwards :3

Comentario de Travy

Our team did it with 2 warriors, a pally healer, a rogue, and myself the warlock. Went pretty smoothly, I drew too much aggro to myself during the second wave; but it was quickly resolved. All in all, not that difficult of a quest with a competent team.

Comentario de Allakhazam

My group and I started this quest and wiped several times. For some reason, on the last try ( when we actually won ) I did not receive the dialogue box asking to join. I did not receive credit for us finally winning this battle. I was alive through the entire fight and standing directly next to the person that started the quest. We had done the entire quest line together as a group of 5.

When I reported this bug to the GM, They only said that "We're working on it" and "We've had this reported before". But they could offer no help or assistance or recompense.

I currently recommend NOT doing this quest line as there is apparently a good chance someone in your group will not get credit at the end.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Its not that hard, just have a decent setup that know their classroles and you'll do fine. Can easily tank multiple mobs in the spawns.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Just did it with a tank, holy priest (me), mage and two warlocks.

First wave we banished two of the demons, and killed the rest (focus fire). Was difficult the first time but we got the hang of it. We pulled them back behind the area and used fears also. We held the banish at the end to regen mana/health also.

Second wave was the two eyes. We burned one down ASAP and then it was pretty much easy. I spammed flash heals on people to keep them up, and potted to keep mana up.

Third wave we focused one down and it was easy. Kept the last one up a bit to regen some mana.

There was time between the Third and final wave to get full mana by drinking, but the final guy was a piece of cake.

Two deaths learning it, but got it done with easy.

Green tabbard for me :)

Comentario de Allakhazam

dont think so, u get a letter if u kill the two named ones next to the place, one is a belf an the other a giant.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Very easy, a few members of my guild decided to do this so it was a full 5 man group. We breezed through it but the quest glitched, so we ended up doing it again with no problem. Very small amount of work for 24g, some nice rings(or 4g at a vendor), and a pretty cool looking tabard.

Comentario de Allakhazam

We did in 5 ppls after 2 hours of wiping...Warrior (not protect but with tank gear), Paladin (holy), Shaman (resto), Mage (fire)and Hunter(marksman) and all i can say is, that this is most terrible quest i ever did.....its very hard and rewards are really ridiculous

its not necessary to kill that elite guards before whole event, but ther is a chanc to run in fear against them (not our story ^^)

btw in that chest you take as reward is f***in tabard:
Tabardo trofeo verde illidari

Comentario de Allakhazam

But when we finally did it, we had a
Fury spec'd warrior (15k health)
AP PoM mage (me)
Paladin (healer, don't remember spec)
Priest (out of party healer Shadow spec'd)
Draeni Shaman (Also healing, resto spec'd)
Hunter ( Don't remember spec)

We tried 5-manning but when time came for the last 4 fire guys, they owned us!
We finally called another person in our guild that needed the quest also. We owned them with 6. The first 8 dudes were easy. They shouldn't even be elite. 4 of the 8 guys always aggroed the healer. That was the big problem... until the Pally came along. He could stay alive when they aggroed him. When the eyeballs showed up, I just kited one using slow and castin fire blast on it. when it got to close i'd frost nova and unleash massive DPS on it while the others would burn the other down. The eyeball i kited had less then 50% health before the other eyeball died! Then came the fire dudes. The tank kept aggro on them while I focus fired along with the hunter, while the pally and shammy and priest healed the tank. The only hard part was keeping my mana up. When time came to kill the last guy, I just went invisible with and sat down and drank til i had about 50 % mana. Then all out DPS on that one dude. He died and had to start over for the shadow priest while the pally jumped out of party. Took a while but we got it!

When I can get this q? 68 Warry

Comentario de Allakhazam

I tried this with a team of 8 and still wiped on the 4 Lords, after I ran out of mana, already having used innervate once, which meant they ran out of heals. It seems a little obscene, but if I had better gear, and the group had an ACTUAL tank, it probably would have gone a bit better. And those rings should really be grey or lvl 50 for their quality, absolutely insane.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I did the quest with 3 player.
Me as a tanking feral druid (about 21k armor and 330 def)
A fire mage and an healing shaman.

We kill all the waves of mobs, the last boss, but the quest didn't get validated :/

Comentario de Allakhazam

so whats the point of all this?

Comentario de Allakhazam

I'm up to 3 attempts of this quest now and it doesn't get validated as being completed.

I am not in a raid group.
I did not die.
I did not fail.

The quest doesn't get marked as completed or failed, I've even tried abandoning the quest and starting again, nothing works.
Some in my group had it marked off completed and some didn't.
Opened a petition to ask a GM but they didn't seem very interested in helping me.

That's the prequisite quest. Drops on the 70 elite patrol in the area that has 4 adds.

Suggestion for strat: Pull back into the little cove behind the platform. Lots of room there. That way the demons have to be pulled when they spawn, rather than ganking you willy nilly. Having at least 1 lock is almost mandatory. Enslave one and banish one. CC is insane.

Comentario de Allakhazam

3 rogues
1 feral dr00d
1 holy spec priest

all in 5 man blues/quest gear

out of all the waves id say 2 was hardest, you must interrupt there spells, there way to powerfull to heal through, if you can do wave 2 the rest is easy aslong as on wave 3 you all move as soon as they cast their flamestrike thing, the bosses 360* cleave only hits for about 2500 on leather, and his shadowfury spell is just a knockback for about 1500 dmg. wave 1 is piss, i ended up tanking one of them as the dr00d found it hard to aggro them all, if you have a well organised grp and everyone knows what to do its super easy.

Comentario de Allakhazam

yeap, kinda hard. 5 ppl is nice. an there is 4 waves.
first two mention above.
Clear the area first, take those 4 (?) elites on the edge of the area, ull get em later otherwise, along with first wave.
On second wave reflect is real nice for blast, watch the fear also.
Third wave is kiteable, dont stand in the fire-thingy they do.
Forth is the boss, pretty much nuke. Did somekind of charging aoe that was easy to avoid.

there isnt a sh*tlot of time btw the waves so take every time u get to regen

u get kewl tabard so its worth it

pre-requisite ?

Comentario de Allakhazam

remember to kill the 3-4 elite guards befor starting quest, otherwise theyll come as well, and the first pull is hard anough tbh.. ;)

Comentario de Allakhazam

We did it with only 4, 2 hunters - 1 paladin and me as feral tank druid

Too easy! Not had any trouble with it.

Comentario de Allakhazam

In a 5 man guild group having an evening with elite quests in Shadowmoon Valley, we stumbled across this quest by chance, and decided to have a go. We wiped once or twice because we weren't prepared for what would come, but in the end it wasn't so bad. We were: 1 protection warrior, 2 druids, 1 holy priest, and 1 warlock. Lucky setup for this encounter I guess because once we learned what was to come, it went very smooth.

First wave (many biped demons): Warrior and druid bears get some aggro, then warlock gets the shield from the priest and spams Seed of Corruption on everything and watches the screen fill with big numbers.

Second wave (two beholders): Not a problem with 3 tanks as you can imagine. Tank both, interrupt their casting when necessary, and bring them down one at a time.

Third wave (four humanoids): Again, we were lucky to have 3 tanks, as we could tank/offtank all mobs at the same time.

Then, the end boss is easy as mentioned elsewhere in this thread - it's just a classical tank/dps fight, and the only thing to watch for is the reflective spell shield the boss brings up from time to time.

The only issue we had was mana for the priest, but 2 druids = 2 x innervate for the priest, and warlock is self-sufficient with life tap/drain life/dark pact. :-)

Go try it, it's a fun fight.

doesn't seem worth the trouble. We did it with 4. We were about 1/3 to 1/2 Kara epic'd out. The rest dungeon blues. It wasn't too hard, but much harder than I expected. I expected a cakewalk like all the other group quests we were doing for money. I did lose one rogue somewhere along the line. Might have been a cleave or something. Other than that, with a good tank and healer, and decent dps, (and gear as I said), shouldn't be a problem. Just don't underestimate the fight as we did. I'm sure I used mana tide totem, can't remember if I busted any pots or elemental (for temp cc), but they may be necessary if you don't have the gear.

I don't recall seeing the patch note but this fight was considerably nerfed probably sometime in May.

When I first was doing it, it was impossibly hard to pug and the floating eyes were terrible.

Now, they're still painful, but only if your healer doesn't know you're going to OT them (heh). Really, the fight is a lot easier than it used to be.

Comentario de Allakhazam

This quest is very hard, I don't know why it says group 4, it's extremely difficult with 5 people! At the start around 4 (possibly 6, things are a bit hectic and i can't really see) 70 elite demons spawn and a LOT of BE soldiers. We had two locks and tried enslaving two, banishing two and then aoeing the soldiers. This worked ok one time, but then the next stage, two elite beholder clone things killed us because we weren't ready.

On our second attempt the two beholder mobs spawned VERY quickly, I'd say the first time they took a minute or more to spawn, second time was within 20 seconds for some reason (possible bug) and this wiped us hard. Third attempt we failed the aoe and group disbanded.

Assuming there's nothing after the second two mobs it's doable, but not easy.

Comentario de Allakhazam

I did it all for the tabard.

Tried it 3 man - got raped. Recruited 2 more, and a second group of 4 showed up to do the quest while we were still prepping.

9 man.... it went pretty damn smooth.

Maybe in a few weeks when we're not still wearing mostly blues, this will be 4 mannable...... but right now.... that first wave is insane.

Comentario de Allakhazam

My group tried this 5 times before disbanding, this is definately not for a group of 4 (or 5 for that matter) people with casual gear. Lousy rewards too, as I currently have green rings that are better than these blue ones.

prequest is a letter that drops from the 70 elite mounted bloodelf that patrols the path of conquest with his escort of mounted bloodknights.

Comentario de Allakhazam

Did this with 5. Our group makeup was:
Warrior (Protection)
Priest (Shadow)
Druid (Feral)
Paladin (Healing (Retribution/Holy))
Hunter (Marksman)

First Wave:
We just zerged this, easy mode

Second Wave:
2 Eyeball guys spawn, they do mindblast and this channeled elemental damage beam.
Warrior tanked both, the guys can be stunned.

Third Wave:
4 guys spawn. They concecrate for around 800-1000 every second and do a curse that increases fire damage by 50%. Warrior tanked all, move them when they concecrate, have a decurser.

Final Wave:
1 guy spawns. He does a huge 360 degree cleave, shadowfury knockback and a spell reflect shield. When he starts to shadowfury, melee go out. Spell reflects seems to last about 5 seconds. Just heal through the cleave.

Edited for spelling errors.

This is a very tough fight that requires perfect execution in a five-man group.

The first wave consists of a big pile of elite biped demons and elves. It's hard to count, but there appear to be 12-15 of them. They are all straight melee monsters. The demons can be enslaved and used for later waves. These elites are weaker than normal monsters of their level.

The key to beating them is the use of AoE and tank skill in holding on to them all.

The second wave consists of two extremely tough beholder demons (Mindbreakers). They hit hard, have a short-range AoE fear spell, a mind blast, and a channelled DoT that ticks for around 500 points/sec and has around a 15-second cooldown. They are immune to banish, enslave, roots, stuns, snares, and crowd control, but are vulnerable to silence and interruption.

There are several keys to winning this wave of the fight. First, focus fire on one demon to get it down before taking on the other. Second, the channelled DoT absolutely must be interrupted. It's too powerful to heal through. Mark the demons with "lucky charm" symbols and assign someone to each demon to interrupt the cast. Third, make sure you off-tank the second demon. Getting a pet second on the aggro list is good for this, in case the main tank loses control of it. The healers need to keep an eye on the pets, though. Fourth, watch out for the fear. Fight away from the guarding "Watchers" so you don't run into them when you're feared. Have a hunter at long range during the fight and your healer right by the demons (who don't have an AoE attack). That way, everyone will get feared except the hunter, who can run away a short distance until the fear wears off, or feign death if the demons get too close.

Everyone must be prepared to interrupt the spellcasting, even the healer (Earth Shock, Silence, etc.)

The third wave is absolutely brutal. It consists of four humanoid mobs with a powerful melee attack and a flamestrike AoE. They don't have any notable immunities.

The first key to beating this wave is crowd control. You must polymorph, freeze, fear, seduce, and root them all you can. Do not put damage-over-time spells on any of them, except for the tank's current target. The second key: When one of the mobs starts casting Flamestrike, move! It does a ton of damage when it hits, and it keeps hitting as long as you stay in the area. Interrupt the flamestrike cast if you can, but that's not easy to do.

Everyone needs to use crowd control. Warriors need to use Intimidating Shout. If your healer is a priest, he needs to cast his Fear as well. Warlocks should Seduce one and Fear another. Hunters need to keep Freezing Traps going as much as possible. Note that it is safe to fear these guys. The nearby Watchers will not aggro if a feared mob runs past them, unless you actually hit the mob. I'm not sure what DoT spells will do here.

Given a choice, wear fire resistance gear here. You have a little time to change gear between waves.

The final wave is a fairly straightforward tank-and-spank on a single boss. If you make it this far, you shouldn't have much trouble with him. Just watch out for his spell reflection shield.

Some other notes:

The event is somewhat buggy, and the second wave will spawn early if all of the first wave gets too far away from the center of the platform. Tank them in the center.

It takes two minutes to run back from the Sanctum of the Stars graveyard, and the event can take fifteen minutes. If you die, run back, eat/drink/bandage, and jump back into the fight. Powerful food and water is obviously a good idea.

It's a long fight. Don't rush. Wear mana regeneration gear. Eat/drink between waves. Bandage yourself to take strain off of the healers.

When you start the event, everyone eligible for the quest gets the opportunity to accept it (a window pops up). If you fail, abandon it before trying again.

Phase 1 of TBC Classic - Just completed this with a 5 man team composing of 2 mages, a hunter, a dps warrior, and a tank paladin. Mages (myself as one) blew all the waves over easily with AOE damage while paladin held aggro. The only tough part was the final boss, who hit the tank like a truck, so he just kited it around while the rest of us nuked it.

Comentario de SirBeelzeBub

Just did it today with Rogue and Restodruid. Boss can hit hard so the Resto must be prepared for Spikes. But in T4 Gear no Problem at all.
