Kommentar von Icecoldcoke

The item can be reused on the same mob if it fails.

Kommentar von Windscar

Can be the fastest quest or the slowest quest you have done. I believe it is roughly 20% chance success.

Kommentar von 126025

Seems to help if you damage it once or twice first, i never was able to free them while they where CCed or untouched, but as soon as i hit them once they where freed.
Maybe lucky but worth trying.

Kommentar von Exekute

I would agree with Bazil. I killed approximately 15 trees without luck before reading his comment. After attempting to damage the trees before using the Runebreaker my percent success went up to around 50%. Might have just been coincedence.

Kommentar von Gratzner

Confirmed

If you fail once on a mob, you can re-try the item on the same mob. Success rate suddenly increased!

And mobs are all over Grizzly Hills

Kommentar von topsub

Yes i also found as a warrior just shooting them with my gun the casting the item would have a 75% better rate

Kommentar von 232380

I had to hit them multiple times on every mob i freed. Poor luck i guess. But as an ice mage it didn't really matter, hit them freeze wait hti them again rinse repeat.

Kommentar von 247186

It seemed when I did it right next to them it worked but when i was at a range it didnt.

Kommentar von suavis

I found that in the event The Runebreaker failed, the following would result in a 100% Success rate upon trying again:

When it goes hostile, bring it to below 20% and then use the Runebreaker again. If you use it before this point your success may vary, more often than not resulting in the Runebreaker failing again.

Kommentar von Reanna

I have a dream that one day these giants will shake off the shackles of the giant trees that hang from their shoulders, and that one day all of Azeroth's creatures will be able to hold hands and sing "Free at last, free at last, thank the Titans we are free at last!"

Kommentar von N3ss3

Seems to work better if you do some dmg to them first.

Kommentar von epicdeath

OK - this is how it works:

Damage the giant

Use The Runebreaker and the giant shrinks

Use The Runebreaker again when the cooldown i over - and the giant is Free.
In Worst case - you have to zap him twice or so to Free him - but no need to kill anything

Kommentar von 59326

So this quest seems to have changed. I've had to damage them and zap them several times, assuming I ever live long enough to zap them more then twice.

Kommentar von 88175

Side note, if your first use fails the giant turns in to a normal mob, normal damage, no rune strike ability so don't be afraid if it fails.

Kommentar von 61969

Marked as horde only, however I just completed this on my alliance warrior...

Kommentar von Nekrotik

Followed the instructions above to the letter, rune worked fine the first two times then failed completely four in a row. I died all 4 times. Repair bill is now at 22 gold for this quest. I'm abandoning.

Edit: Abandoned and tried again, this time I found the problem. I wouldn't recommend doing this up on the hill south of the bridge at 75,44. The item doesn't work on that hill even though the mobs are named "Runed Giant" just like the others and my minimap says I'm still in the Eastwind Shore as the quest states. You will get an "Invalid Target" message and most likely you will die.

Kommentar von rocky69

as a retri pala i just used repentance and spammed the stone untill it worked, didnt take a single hit :P

Kommentar von ash23

I was just on this quest as a mage, i tried to frost nova it and click the quest item but it just wouldn't work so i popped my elemental out and let it attack it for a while, while i was clicking the quest item. At the last second when my elemental killed it i managed to free it so i got the quest and i can see the loot sparkle at its feet. But it wouldn't let me loot it though.

Just thought it was funny.

Kommentar von BLUEDEVIL

the q is very simpel if you now how to do it you need to attack them when they are bellow 25% of there life you can use the stone to free them

Kommentar von XenosBH

just keep clicking the stone until it frees the giant. dont fight the giant, just keep clicking!

Kommentar von 261659

Ok, if you are worried about fighting these guys just go to 66,12. Find a Runed Giant that is Fighting a Grizzly Hills Giant and use the stone on that one. As long as the grizzly giant stays alive the runed giant will not attack you. You have to use the Runebreaker two times. The first time removes the elite status and the second time frees the giant. Boom done and done.

Kommentar von 126544

Hunters:
if the runebreaker fails, feign before the giant gets to you and the giant will run back to the place where you zapped it and turn back into a runed giant. Then you can try again.

Kommentar von 265647

Just did this as a shaman, Transform into ghost wolf and use the item keep runing until item cools down then use it again 1 giant took 7 tries so dont give up Goodluck.
Oh and they hit hard. You may end up with a big repair bill ^^

Kommentar von WARBOSZ

Worked for me - had much better success hitting the giant first then using the Runebreaker.

Kommentar von 202640

You pull them with the item, attack them without killing them and try multiple times with the item, it's most effective.

Kommentar von 34032

Hunter: This works good target giant ice trap Zap, if fails it freezes zap again Does NOT break trap keep zapping till green

Hope this helps.

Lvl 77 hunter.

Kommentar von 3054

I recommend holding on to this quest and not turning it in until you get to this quest https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/quest=11355, because I can confirm that the analyzing pick works on the giants after you use the shard on them and kill them.

Good Luck

Kommentar von 168031

One mob took me FOUR zaps in order for it to become free.

As a warrior I used the device, if it worked I was happy. If it fails, the giant will be non-elite (a weakened giant) so don't panic - you're not going up against an elite.

I hamstrung it, backed off and waited for the device to cool down (only a few secs) and then zapped it again.

Worked a treat! Just keep zapping until they become free is the best bet.

Kommentar von 241771

It can take as few as the first zap, or as many as 10 (I encountered one that took 9 zaps for the first one, scared me).

Kommentar von dasaa

The zapping doesn't break any CCs. :)

Kommentar von 287890

After the item failed it would never work on the same mob for me. It just said the giant was weakened and i had to kill it.

Kommentar von 291963

It is easy :) just go to " 67.0 12.0 " and wen you see 2 gigans to fight use the quest item and it is done :)

Kommentar von silkfire

There are several quests named "Free at Last(!)" in the game. Poor imagination, Blizzard folks?

Kommentar von 297178

I think that Gavrock has made the worst runebreaker in the world.
The chance you'll succeed and actually set a giant free was like 5% with me.

Kommentar von Merryjayne

Schwarzesonne is correct.

The quest is easy.

1. go to fighting grounds in Boulder Hills (coords: 69, 9)
2. target any of the runed giant
3. click Gavrok's Runebreaker
4. that action will either 'free' them or it will 'weaken' them. if it weakens them, hit them with the runebreaker again. don't bother fighting them. just hit them with the runebreaker again and they'll change to 'free'.

Kommentar von felixmdx

and still all q rewards are usless :(

Kommentar von Whittall

This is suprisingly easy for Death Knights. All you have to do it use the runebreaker on a Runed Giant, and if it fails, use "Chains of Ice" and run backwards. Repeat this and you'll be fine. :3

Kommentar von 194732

If no one noticed. The quest item's cooldown has been changed from a minute to it seems 10 seconds.
Same with the rate the mobs would turn friendly.

Kommentar von 310907

Took me 20 uses for the freed.

Kommentar von 309394

I had no trouble with this quest at all. Just using the rune turned them friendly between a third and a half of the time.

What I came here for was to find out whether the rune would still work after freeing 4 of them. I didn't see anyone else mention it - but it does. If you plan on questing in the area where these elites roam, do NOT turn in this quest!

Kommentar von 359392

Tip:
You can use any CC, I'm a Retri palla, so i used repentace then u can use Gavrock's Runebreaker. It doesn't interrupt the CC. This way you can easily do the quest. I dont know if Sap or Entangling roots work, but u can try it at least.

Kommentar von 15507

After 46 failed attempts on many many mobs, I would recommend skipping this quest, the green reward was not worth the hour+ I spent before abandoning this quest without a single mob freed.

Kommentar von 363853

Very annoying quest its simple but boring.
Some ways you should try before you use gavrocks runebreaker
1.) Hit it a few times first
2.) Use it diagonally to the giant.

Also for the miners. If you mine them they give you geodesic fragments if you sell them to vendors you get quite abit.

Kommentar von 291446

Theese guys killed my freind so many times he didnt wana turn in the quest so he could keep the item xD and for ret palleis just use Repentance, wont break it if it fails....Good tip ^_^

Kommentar von bob3rt

What I would suggest trying is this :

Zap one of the mobs, if it doesn't turn just run away, and after the mob runs back to it's original position, zap it again and it should turn on the first go.

I did this 4 times in a row and it worked every time for me, but it may have been just me. Try it and see what happens.

edit: After coming back to do this on my mage, My method above didn't seem to work. Sorry for the disinformation.

The Runebreaker fails to free the Runed Giant, weakening it and causing it to attack!

Kommentar von 206105

Actually you get some good XP if you're rested & with the quick respawn time.. Easy xp!

Kommentar von 245849

For us hunters. Let pet get aggro, pop Mend Pet, and spam the zap til you got it, keeping mend pet up always.

Kommentar von 421888

Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!

Kommentar von shexna

best way to do it.

find a giant, zap it, keep running around in circles and zap it when ever you can, it will turn friendly in the end, took me 3-5min to complete the quest using this method.

and you can use it on the same mob, even tho they changes name.

Kommentar von 497444

Easy quest:

You can zap giant more than once, just wait for cool down (about 10 - 15 seconds). You can run around waiting for cool down, or I found an easy way by accident: Coming down the path of iron at 75,45 is a bridge, the giants won't go in the river -- they run back and forth across the bridge to chase u while u swim from one shore to the other. Easy way to kill the cool down and zap again!

- had 1 go friendly on first zap, others took 2-5 zaps.

Have fun ; )

Kommentar von 260440

8 Giants in a row turned evil on me. I thought my freaking quest item was broken. And btw, zapping them multiple times DOESN'T work. After 14 zaps I gave up that theory. Only thing you can do is hope that they become friendly as much as possible.

Kommentar von 515394

I was able to:

1. Begin summoning my flying mount (cold weather flying required)
2. Spam the quest item.
3. As the mount is summoned the quest item is used...

If successful, Yay! If not, fly away!

Good luck!

Kommentar von 117342

At 76.27 41.62 where they spawn, I was able to zap all 4 without one turning nasty on me, could just be luck or maybe there's some science to it. I tried many other places without this level of success. Good luck.

Kommentar von 34517

I wish I read the comments here before about trying to zap the same mob several times. However I didn't and as a result ended up killing well over 30 giants before I got my 4th freed. Freed the first mob, then failed 26 times in a row, then got the last 3 pretty fast after eachother.

Kommentar von 571903

Just finished this quest, Zapping Multiple times does still work, no questions about it. i killed them at first then looked it up here and tried it. 100% works in patch 3.3.3

Kommentar von mbrothwell

Garock is possibly the suckiest inventor ever

Kommentar von Cromulon

Very simple quest as an Unholy DK, the 15% movement increase meant I could zap and run to the next one without taking any damage.

Took me 23 attempts, respawn rate is very very fast.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Just retarget the same giant .....simple....you don`t have to kill them...you can retarget them after the runebreaker has cooled down....only took me 5 giants once I figured that out.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As Lavandirah said, just retarget the same one, and use the Runebreaker over and over. It's got about a 9% chance to work, so retargeting the same giant is a lot easier than killing 100 of them. As a druid, I just targeted one, then when it was weakened, rooted it and tried over and over til it worked. Made this quest so much easier and less frustrating.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Very bad drop rate, or very bad returning to their senses, I
killed about a hundred to obtain the 4 "converted" needed.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Location 69,9 area where Grizzly Hills Giants and Runed Giants are fighting. Completed quest by converting about 10 Runed Giants. FYI...good to convet them while fighting so Grizzly's keep aggro and you keep converting Runeds.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

? What the !@#$ are you people talking about? all you need to do is convert 4 giants near the quest giver. No need to travel so far to get the ones on the hill at 69,9.. youalso don't need no drops off them just convert them..

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Target a Runed Giant. Use the Runebreaker provided. They either;
1. Become Freed Giants (yay)
or
2. Become Weakened Runed Giants (with about 12,000) health - very managable

They are meandering all over the place along the shore.
First three converted fine to me. Fourth I had to kill. Fifth converted. Done. Simple.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

This quest just feels broken because of it's low proc rate.

If your a pally, I'd recommend using Repent repeatedly because it can take more then 60 seconds of using Gavrock's Runebreaker to finally get a proc. Since the effect of repent and the cool down are the same this becomes an exercise of just clicking over and over until you get one.

Kommentar von Jerek

The quest item works on any Runenbeschriebener Riese or Geschwächter Riese, but may take a few tries.

It helps to have a pet soak some hits while you wait for the quest item's cooldown.(##RESPBREAK##)290##DELIM##Jerek##DELIM##

Kommentar von Kuggsy

Quest is extremely bad. Used item about 20 times on same mob for it to finally work. 10+ tries on every tree. Sometimes their Dark Rune buff continues to stack on you despite being shrunk, and it ticks for 2-3k a second. Good luck.

Kommentar von Cedobeard

My experience suggests it's possible that after the first zap doesn't work (it won't,) burning the health bar down low could make it more susceptible to the next zap. But I did get one on the first zap once out of 9, and one on the third zap while the health was still high. But when the health was near 30%, it worked both times.

And if you go too far south so you're in the "Grizzly Hills" zone area, then the giants appear to be "invalid target." Maybe just the areas where they initially spawn. Eastwind Shore and Path of Iron areas work fine so far.

Kommentar von bfedorov11

got 3 quickly... then tried 30 times to get the last... ^&*! this quest
