Quando matar este NPC, se você estiver acima do level 90, aconselho que retire as armas e alguns equipamentos.

E você matar ele rápido, não conseguirá fazer as quests (vai bugar).

Você deve matá-lo devagar, e esperar que ele acorrente os NPCs Jaloot e Zepik, o Caça-gorloc

Se você quiser reputação com Os Oráculos, deverá matar o Zepik, o Caça-gorloc. E se quiser reputação com Tribo Feralma deverá matar o Jaloot.

Após matar o Artruis, o Nefando depois desta fase explicada acima, o NPC que você manteve vivo lhe entregará uma quest diária, que dará inicio as demais quests diárias da facção que você escolheu upar.

Lembrando que você só terá uma chance por dia de pegar a quest certa. Caso mate o Artruis, o Nefando muito rápido e não respeite a fase da luta explicada acima, vai bugar e você só conseguirá pegar a quest diária que liberará a sequencia de quests da facção no dia seguinte.

Undead Lich-type NPC, last boss of the long chain. At approximately 30% health, he turns immune to all damage and the two NPCs you were partners with earlier (Jaloot and Zepik, who are frozen near him) start attacking you.

When I killed one of the NPCs (Jaloot), Artruis was once again attackable while the other NPC (Zepik in this case) helped kill him.

I did it with a deep Protection Warrior tanking him while I (deep Combat Rogue) killed him. The warrior died at 4%, I lived and finished him off with Zepik. I would definitely recommend a healer for this fight.

The NPC that you to kill determines which faction you can raise later. So decide which faction rewards you're interested in before you engage.

Frenzyheart Tribe
vs
The Oracles

Make sure your group all wants the same faction or else it could lead to you having to do it over.

Just tried to solo this guy as a 76 Ret Paladin. I got him down to where he makes the two NPCs attack you, killed one off, and started attacking him again. At around 19% health he ran away from me and disappeared, nowhere to be found. There was no corpse, I got no quest complete, and he was not where he spawns.

Just soloed him as a lvl 78 frost mage :) used all my CDs, spell stoled his Icy Veins, kept FrostWard and Ice Barrier up, and had to Evocate (Glyph of Evocation), and that was kinda it :) easy soloed one of the adds and back to the elite afterwards...nice fight imo :D GL on getting your kill ^^

Solo'd this as a L77 Ele shaman. The two adds were fine and did very little damage, but the Lich's frostbolts hurt a lot.

Honestly I needed a pot, Earth elemental and still had to rely on heavy use of Grounding Totem to absorb his offensive spells. Even then the friendly add did most of the last 30% while I was oom and madly healing myself. The Lich's spells cannot be interrupted by the way.

If you don't have a way around the frostbolts, I would advise grouping up :-)

As a Shadow Priest I was able to get him down to 27% with a sliver of health left just as I defeated one of his adds. I was killed before I could attempt to finish him off simply because I ran out of mana. I'm sure this fight would be possible to solo but the hardest part is going to be keeping your mana pool up since you're limited to a single mana potion (and I blew both Shadowfiend and Dispersion). Good luck to anyone who isn't able to find a group for this.

He hits mostly with a Frost Bolt for about 2,500 damage. If it helps, the add was able to get him from 27% down to about 14%. If you're able to get him down to 13% your buddy could probably finish him off.

Soloed this guy not once but twice as a resto Shaman in T6/Sunwell gear. I had to do it again because I ran off after killing him the first time without realizing I had to talk to Jaloot right there. By the time I made it back to him he had despawned.

I just kept stoneskin, mana stream, and frost resist totems up, spammed grounding totem and kept water shield on myself (I'm specced resto so my damage isn't so great, the fight lasted about 6 minutes). I had used my elemental totems the first time so both of them were still down.

Still, it was alot easier the second time since the first time I kept earth shield on myself instead of water shield. Had to chug a mana pot that time and a mana tide and still ended up out of mana at the end almost. The second time with water shield up I had no mana problems at all.

Comentado por Jaramshaela

It would appear that the bugging out is related to where the npc (gorloc or wolvar) is when you kill them; if they are too far away from Artruis, it appears that the boss doesn't know the mob is dead, and remains in combat with the other one, thus bugging.

Hope this helps someone.

Solo'd as a 79 unholy Death Knight.
I put my tank gear on which was actually not really needed and just try to keep 100 runic power all the time since I have the Death Strike glyph, keep 3 diseases up and keep on using death strike all the time.
Also had bloodtap, healing trinket, lifeblood healing and ofcourse use icebound fortitude and Anti-Magic Shell everytime it's up and you got big incoming dmg.
Wasn't that hard.

If you die after you break the control on the murloc/dog, run back ASAP. I died with Lich at 10% and ran back, expecting to have to start over but found the murloc hadn't been killed yet. I just stole the murloc's kill.

Comentado por riltin

This is going to sound ridiculous .. But I soloed this fight as a level 80 Survival Hunter. Imagine that, Survival .. Heh.

First thing I did was lay down an Immolation trap .. Pointless I think, cause he was a ranger. So I put a Serpent Sting on him, Hunter Mark, and proceeded to blast the %^&* out of him while my pet crab desperately tried to tank it. He was casting on poor Claws for about 2,000 frost damage, and on me too. I kept my Mend pet up constantly for two reasons .. The first so my pet didn't die, but also because it causes threat. When the lich turned to me for the first time, I simply let him eat me down to 50% health while Claws healed up to 100% .. Feigned Death, and that dumped the Threat on Claws. I bandaged myself with Heavy Frostweave, and then started firing again. Mend pet, Feign Death, and Frostweave. I think I did that about four times. It seemed hopeless at first, a matter of me doing something stupid because I couldn't find a group, but there I was. Aimed Shot and Explosive Shot were what I used for the first part of the fight, aside from Serpent Sting (darn undead are immune to Wyvern Stings). When I got him to 30% or so .. 20% for me actually .. he froze and unleashed his pets unto me at queu. I was at 40% health and I think my bandage debuff was at 40 secs, so I thought for sure halfway into ripping into the Wolvar fella that I was finished, but nope .. At the point where I was fighting the two adds, I stopped using Explosive Shot so that I wouldn't harm or agro the Gorloc fella. and used Arcane Shot instead. Through some miracle; namely both those mobs attacking Claws instead of me I believe; I took out the wolf .. I was at 600/16,000 Hp at that point and the Lich was about to take me out. So I feigned death just in time, and bandaged.

To try to summarize this jubbly of information, I would say this.

1: Mark Target, and mark him later in the fight if it begins to wear off.

2: Get the good old fashioned Steady Shot ready, and as soon as it goes off - let loose an Aimed Shot and a Serpent Sting, and Explosive Shot/Chimera Shot if possible.

3: Repeat Step two until you get around 50% Hp, Feign Death, and let your pet do the work while you quickly bandage yourself.

4: When your pet hits 75%, Mend it. Preferably, mend it only when you absolutely need to, because it will cause threat. If your pet gets way too close to death, use Distracting Shot to pull that sucker off him while your pet heals. keep up that Step Two!

5: If by some miracle such as my own you survive (Use any moves I did not mention above that you wish to for greater survivability chance!) then the two little'uns will be set loose. Aim for whichever you want, and refrain from using Explosive shot. The fight remains the same pretty much. I found that the two little mobs hit my pet harder because they hit faster, but the strategy remains the same for the most part..

6: All that aside, use whichever mob you saved to help you finish off the fight.

And ya. A miracle, like I said. My gear at this time isn't exactly high grade. ; P

Correct me if I'm wrong, but can you kill either one, as long as you don't complete the quest given by the one that survives, you won't have your reputation harmed. This way, you can help anyone do the kill.

I was able to solo this as a 79 discipline-spec Priest, but it took about ten minutes. I simply shielded/renewed myself while wanding and using shadow word: ain, devouring plague, and throwing in some occasional mind blasts, etc. Doesn't really do a ton of damage, so slow-but-steady is the way to go if you're a Priest. In the second phase, where he sends the minions after you, be advised that the one using ranged attacks will bandage occasionally, so make sure you interrupt with an attack or fear accordingly.

Also, since I didn't necessarily see this strictly clarified above, to make sure you get the faction you want:

If you want to be able to receive rewards with the Oracles, kill the teddy bear raccoon-man.

If you want to be able to receive rewards from the teddy bear raccoon-men, kill the gremlin-murloc hybrid.

The one you don't kill will assist you in battle after you kill the faction you don't want to be part of.

Just Soloed this with my Elemental Shaman, level 76.

Lay down fire elemental, keep mana spring and wrath of air up, Flame shock+Lava Burst.

But remember to heal yourself whenever you go below 50%, his crits might catch you without your pants on.

Didn't had to pop Bloodlust.

Comentado por Rookie

People should be aware that in order to get to the stage of changing from Frenzy to Oracles, they shud complete all the quest chains (around lvl 77 quests) for both factions.

Simply put, as you are leveling you will do about 5-6 quests for EACH faction before deciding who you want to side with on the end quest ''A Hero's Burden''.

You will gain rep with frenzy till about honored, then be told to go and save some Injurered Oracle, this will trigger an event that will then send you to the Oracle camp, and also reset your reputation to Hated (frenzy) and freindly (Oracle).

Finish some quests for the Oracles now, and you will eventually get the Hero's burden quest, this is the point you choose which side to be which.

If ure anything like me, u missed most of the quest lines whilst leveling. So i went back at 80 and got completly lost as to why i was stuck at Hated Oracles and freindly Frenzy, without having the option to change.

Hope that makes any sense to anyone trying to change over.

*EDIT* on a side note, he can Bug very easily, if u attack him before the 2 adds have respawned, he buggs out at 30%.

Also, when hes in this bugged stage, u can train weapon skills on him. :) something to do while u wait for a GM to reply to reset him.

Frostbolt: ~2700 (Not interruptable)
Frost Nova: Lasts about 8 seconds, Altruis will attampt to run away from you. (If you fight him near a wall, it can give you some extra time to attack him as a melee class)
Icy Veins: Usually after Atruis casts Frost Nova, he will cast Icy Veins. (Heart Strike > Icy Veins ^.^)
Atruis is immune to Silence and Interrupt effects.

At 30% he becomes immune to all attacks, and your previous allies become aggressive and attack you. Depending on which you kill chooses your rep.

Solo-ed as 77 Death Knight (Blood)

If soloing, as a reccomendation use the time Atruis is immune to heal up.

Is there a way to return to the Oracles after completing this quest? I accidentidly didn't read the quest just went to do the quest and I got hated with the oracles, which was not something I wanted. Anyone know if you can get back to the oracles?

Comentado por Brawndo

I was able to solo this as a 78 frost mage with magic Absorption and mage armor.

He will simply spam frostbolts at you, so if you start off with Ice barrier and frost ward up and on cooldown you will resist and absorb a lot of damage as well as soaking most of it once you use them again. Hes not immune to frost so use icy veins and elemental and nuke him while keeping shields up. Cold snap the elemental back out when it dies since you will need him to kill one of the two critters, use deep freeze and kill one. Ice barrier will hold long enough for an evocate which with the glyph should heal you to full.

Once one dies the other goes friendly and attacks the boss, once he aggros use invisibility right after a frostbolt lands on you to break combat, then eat and drink. The npc can tank it until you reach full health and you can help him finish off the boss.

If you accidentally kill the wrong mob and finish the quest to obtain one of the factions and want to switch, you have to wait until the next day and then it will let you. It's apparently a daily quest and you can only choose to change your faction switch once a day.

Okey so i tried this as an elemental shaman (level 76, crap geared)
Totems:
- Mana Spring totem
- Wrath of Air
- Stoneskin
- Totem of Wrath
- Fire Elemental Totem (evetually when the adds release)

Tactics:
I popped totems, and started the fight easy by just doing some light bolts, chain lightning, flame shock and lava burst, remember to keep Water Shield up at all time to not go oom.
Basically, just nuke the boss, heal yourself after about every second frostbolt as it hits for 3,3k without resistance, then when he gets to somewhere around 20 or 30% he gets immune to all dmg and the adds are released. Now here is the "harder" part of the fight, i started attacking Zopik as i want to go oracle, not Frenzyheart, pop your elemental now so it can tank the other mob. Make sure it wont be killed ;) And then when the mob you want to kill dies, the other one will start helping you finishing off the boss...
Piece of cake

Comentado por 229626

Relatively easy for shadow priests, principally because you can dispel the frost debuff he puts on you, and keep your health up via damage done and vampiric embrace. I chose to keep my power word shield up just in case.

When the two adds go live, pick your target and burn him down while keeping the other one away from you using psychic scream.

I used one mana potion and the shadow fiend. Didn't have to cure myself. Finished the fight with full health and about 40% mana (level 80 shadow priest, mediocre gear, no epics yet).

Easily soloed as a demonology warlock. Just keep your Felguard on him and use light dps to avoid pulling aggro and wiping. Very important to use Health Funnel whenever you can, and drain life when you need to.

Soloed as a 78 BM hunter, 77 Bear as pet.
Sent pet in with MD, Kill Command and Intimidation.
Poped all trinkets and CDs right at start.
Midway through the fight when my pet got low, I distracting shot and took the attacks while my pet healed up. After it was healed I healed myself with bandages.
When he released the 2 adds, my pet simply tanked both. I killed the frenzyheart add but the oracle add pulled from mend pet, i simply feigned death.
After it was dead i finished him off re-using CDs that were up and using the distracting shot method.
Soloing ftw

Comentado por 264405

Ok the question i was wondering is if you do the daily portion of this for the oracle's twice what will happen. Part of me thinks nothing just gold. the other part of me thinks it will reset the oracles to the base rep. And the final part is that it will give some rep. Now im not really willing to try this out but if anyone else has... would love to know.

Managed to solo him as a 79 ret paladin.

Although soloing with (x) class at (x) level is not a good way of commenting, I'd like to say that if any other ret pallies had intentions of soloing this, be sure to switch to frost resist aura. It's a lot more effective than ret aura.

I must say the Wolvar are bastards. The Oracles Fish Frog gusy are soooo cute ^^ Just killed him with two drids a warr and me, a rogue. We killed the Wolvar guy, Zepik so it's allOracle dailies now :D

On the first try the warr and I got punched off the cliff by Artius so keep him in the middle of the room :D

Once thsi Quest is done you can obtain Jaloot, Lafoo and Moodie as combat pet things in Sholzar for the dailies but you might aswell quest with them anyway.

Lafoo is mainly melee dps, very rogue/warr like.
Jaloot is a bit of melle and some spells, very shaman like.
Not too sure on Moodie, if I'm right he's , much the same as Lafoo.

Beware, if you're killed by the opposite faction, even after you kill him, the faction members will despawn. My group (72 ret pally, 74 shadow priest, 77 balance druid) killed him easily only to be jumped by two deathknights and a warrior, all 80. When we returned, Artruis hadn't respawned yet, but Jaloot was nowhere to be found.

In addition, Shadowmelding (presumably dropping combat in any way) also despawns him and the faction members.

Solo'd as an 80 prot warr with okay gear (mostly blues, no purples, and like, 2 things enchanted). I did find out on accident there is a way to "bug" him, so to speak, so that you can take some time and bandage and wait for cooldowns when he is immune to damage.

Basically, behind him, there is a small dropoff that leads to the level below. You'll take a small amount of fall damage, and there may/may not be a pat on the road to kill. If there is, kill it. You'll still be in combat, but the wolvar and the gorloc will apparently not follow you down the road. Use this to your advantage! Bandage up, and make your way back up the ramp, only killing the things that aggro to you. You can wait it seems forever, bandaging again and again until you're full health, so long as you're not close enough to aggro the NPCs while they are chained. To be quite honest, this was the only way I was indeed able to solo this guy (I ended up using Last Stand, both trinkets, Gift of the Naaru, Enraged Regeneration and a Health Potion before I managed to get him to the magic 30%).

As I said, though, you'll still be in combat, so you won't be able to eat/drink; instead, wait for mana naturally (or by Innervate, Dispersion, Life Tap, Aspect of the Viper, etc.), bandage up every time the "recently bandaged" debuff goes away, and you're good to go!

Comentado por 257564

Soloed as a lvl 80 boomkin. I stayed in caster form the whole fight so I can heal and keep HoTs up. I began the fight with Force of Nature to keep aggro off for at least 3 seconds and then used starfall (which may or may not be necessary), afterward I basically kept moonfire and insect swarm dots on him and spammed wrath until eclipsed procced and switched to starfire to refresh moonfire. I had full health once he became immune and about 30% mana (17k mana pool). I ran out of mana after getting Jaloot to about 50%, but I used innervate so make sure yours is not on CD or at least have a mana pot handy. It was easier than I expected as long as you keep heals up and manage your mana well.

Soloable as 80 lvl Shadowpriest ( blues only, no epics)
ate some food to buff up my HP pool, had shadow protection ( although he shouts ice, I received much less damage from it than people write above).

then just keep VE and Dev plague all the time up, and nuke nuke, using PW:S as soon as possible. had to drink 1 HP pot in the process, and used shadowfiend.

the adds ( when he is at 30) are simple, as soon as they get to you, fear, and dot/ MF, don't nuke cause it will break the fear.
when the fear is ended, cast shield, when he will break thru the shield fear be on again.

as soon as you have killed one of the adds, the other one attack the boss and get the aggro, this is the time to bandage before you start nuking again, you can use dispersion if you're low on mana.

good luck.

Note: This quest >>CAN<< be solo'd at the lv 76-77 range but probably only by shamans (and perhaps only by enhancement shamans...)

As a lv 76 enhance shaman I was able to solo this quest. Here was my strategy:

First and foremost, the key to being able to solo this fight is GROUNDING TOTEM. Do not drop windfury totem or wrath of air at all during this fight. Time grounding totem to catch all of Artruis' more damaging, time-cast ice bolts that you can. Don't use wolves, any trinket, or shamanistic rage until Artruis hits 30% and you have to fight the two captives. ALSO DROP FROST RESIST TOTEM. It will cut down the damage dealt to you as well as give you a chance to resist some of the ice bolts. As enhancement, maintain full dps and use maelstrom procs to cast healing wave on self every time. Do not cast lit bolt. I was able to get him to 30% using grounding totem, frost resist totem, strength of earth, and mana totem, and I didn't have to use my wolves, shamanistic rage, bloodlust, or trinkets. Once the two captives start attacking you, blow everything, choose which faction you want to alienate via murder, and then finish the fight.

Comentado por bumba

Solo'ed as 80 resto shaman.

I popped Heroism and Fire elemental and kept repeating FS and LL combo.
I also Kept grounding totem up on every CD

Interesting Part
Once Altruis disengaged and it was time to kill the npc of choice, my fire elemental charged the oracle, but i wanted to kill the Frenzy. So for a good 4 minutes I had both attacking me, even after dismissing the fire elemental (because i was attacking the frenzy, but my fire ele attacked the oracle)

So i ran back out of range, each npc returned to Altruis' side. I then ran back to altruis, noticed he was still at 30% health, and attacked the frenzy again. He died and the oracle just watched!

(so basically he's resetable if you begin to kill the wrong one)

Then after the frenzy dropped, the oracle helped me take down Altruis the rest of the way.

Fun fight

Soloed as a 80 BM Hunter using a 80 "tank-spec'd" Gorilla.

Flew in and landed on the ledge where he is before I auto dismounted for being inside a cave, and engaged immediately, sent the gorilla (with thunderstomp and growl on auto) and immediately cast Mend Pet, misdirected to gorilla, did a few steady shots and an arcane shot and then bestial wrath + rapid fire + kill command + AP trinket

Since he is attacking my pet the whole time I have full health, when my pet is around 30%, I cast mend pet and then hit him with a distracting shot so he focuses on me, giving the gorilla time to recover, then I feign death when the gorilla has recovered a decent amount health to survive the rest of the fight so he goes back to gorilla, at ~28% for me, the two frozen guys thawed out and attacked... I chose to keep the oracle guy alive, downed the frenzyheart guy (he's easy and didn't hit hard), and finished off the main elite without having to cast another mend pet.

Hope this helps!

He will remain in combat once he sends his adds after you if you outrange him, but his adds will drop combat. This in essence will allow you to full heal, wait for some mana, evocate (with glyph as I did), bandage ETC before engaging the adds. You wont be able to eat since you're in combat.

I soloed this as a FFB mage by popping mirror image(they will absorb a few hits), frost ward and other damage cooldowns during the first phase, and dropping combat on the adds during the second part. Once i was out of combat i could EVO to fill my mana and HP, then sheep one / nuke the other. once an add dies you just need to finish him off.

He's very 'easy' to kill as a (non Affliction) Warlock, even though he's immune to COT...
Sacrifce your demon (if your Affliction don't worry, just drain tank him) and pop your Infernal, let him tank for a while while you keep your dots on him, then at around 100k hp, start blasting him away likes there's no tommorow, once at around 60% aggro use Soulshatter (if you have more than 60% Soulshatter might not get you below your Infernal on aggro) and continue with your DPS, he should shield himself up at 30% and then he will release his two captives on you.
Fear the one you don't wish to kill, and towards the end use Howl of Terror two fear both away then cast Curse of Recklessness on the other captive (as long as it's not talented duh...) then drainlife to get yourself back to full hp before becuase once you kill one captive the boss will continue his task on killing you.
So once you've killed one captive leave the other one alone as he will attack the boss (with increased attack power due to your COR) DPS to boss down asap because you don't want to die now!
Once you've killed the boss loot the chest to complete your quest, the NPC you just had set free will have a blue exclamation mark above his head, click it and instantly complete a quest, accept the quest he gives and hand it in to start the daily quests.

Also just incase... Soulstone yourself :p

Just solo'd this as a level 80 bear-specced druid in some pretty mediocre gear. Started in cat form. Switched to bear at low hp and used frenzied regen + runic healing potion back to full. From then I switched between bear and cat everytime he used frost nova on me. Everytime I got relatively low on hp (about 4-5k), I would switch out and use about 3 healing touches to get back to full and the first time I popped innervate. Once in the second phase, I got the frenzyheart guy down to ~1k hp, healed myself back to full (because Artruis hits harder than the oracle and frenzyheart combined) and then continued to kill both Artruis and the add. Took me two tries to figure it out, but it was relatively easy for me.

I solo'd him as a 79 SL/FG warlock and it was REALLY easy. Just send your felguard and keep Siphon Life up to replenish the HP lost with HealthFunel. Keep Demonic Enpowerment to break the ice wich stcuks FG in place. When FG gets a considerable amount of Aggro, you may cast your other dots. Dont use spells with cast time cos' youll have to HF your felguard kinda often. Also dont forget to lifetap sometimes even if you are at full mana because your FG will not be.

When he release the adds, just fear the one you want to keep alive and burn the other to the ground. After this, it is even more a piece fo cake.

Tank and spank really, couldn't be simpler. The healing from Bloodthirst and Enraged Regen were more then enough healing. Bring a heath pot if you're not sure of gear.

Lesser Geared Mini-Guide
Before you start the fight, have Battle Shout up, and healed up to full. Charge, zerker and dps!
Heroic Fury should be up at least every other frost nova so you can pop out of that and Intercept to continue to dps. The frost bolts cannot be interrupted by Pummel, so don't waste the GBC. On the frost novas that you're stuck on, Heroic Throw, (if you are an Engineer, use your Hand-Mounted Pyro Rocket here as well), and shoot/throw the boss until frost nova is up, then close the gap and dps.

Once 30% hits and the adds pop, group them together, they both have ranged attacks so be ready for this. Once together, target the add you want to kill and fear bomb. Dps down your add and you're pretty much home free. Close the gap on Artruis, get him down to 19% and Execute his face.

As far as the bigger cooldowns go, Deathwish is ok to use, 5% damage increase to you should be acceptable, but Recklessness should be avoided unless you've practiced this. Only use it if Heroic Fury is up and Artruis frost novas. Only then do you have enough time to get off your 3 specials before the next frost bolt (since he moves away after the frost nova a little). Otherwise the 20% increase in damage, on top of the 10% since you're in zerker and possiby 5% more if DW is up......you're dead :P

Cheers,
Necro..

solo'd as a holy priest, half epics

got to the choice part and then started killing zepik until I ran out of mana and he started to bandage...

so I ducked around a corner still in combat and both of them ran to their position, and artruis healed up to about 44%.... I regened everything and waited for shadowfiend and then I finished off zepik and then artruis with no problem

Easily soloed by a freshly L80 affliction/soul link warlock in quest gear. Just keep your dots up, demon alive and drain tank. The bolts hurt a bit but nothing you cannot drain through - or if things get nasty survive with a healthstone. Probably doable much earlier, I'd guess at 76-77.

I just soloed him as a resto druid. It didn't count though because once the wolvar I chose to kill was dead, I went oom (already used innervate) and Jaloot did most of the work. Apparently, if you have him do most of it even for the last 30%, it doesn't count.

There are two buggy aspects to this fight.

The first one has been mentioned a few times: if you kite the adds away from Artruis, the adds reset to their original position, but Artruis doesn't regain health and the adds remain attackable. This gives you time to bandage, evocate, wait for cooldowns etcetera and is very helpful for solo attempts.

The second one is that killing an add out of LoS to Artruis makes the other add friendly without removing the shield from Artruis. The friendly add will allways keep Artruis in combat until the encounter is reset by a GM or server restart. Although a pacified & immune Artruis makes for very easy afk weapon skillups, your fellow WoW players may not appeciate since this disables the quest for the entire realm.

Just killed him again during patch 3.09 and it seems he's a lot tougher to bug out now. This time only 1 add leashed and the other stayed hostile even when the first add was killed. Artruis also has a tendancy to despawn when trying to bug him. After 2 attempts I just soloed him the proper way and although I'm a fair bit more epic then when I first killed him, only barely made it.

This post is in regards to Exalted reputations with both the Frenzyheart and Oracles factions.

If you are at a milestone for the achievements for x number of exalted factions, beware when switching between Oracles and Frenzyheart. For some reason, I believed that when hitting exalted with one, you could do this quest to switch back and be exalted with the opposite faction at the same time and your "Exalted Factions Counter" would include two ticks from these guys. Unfortunately, I switched while I was at 39/40 and the counter remained at 39/40 (after putting me at 0/12000 Honored with Frenzyheart) until I logged, when it switched to 38/40.

This quest will not revoke any achievement points if you are at 30/40 etc. already; but once you've gone exalted, just stick with the Oracles and get your green drake :x

Soloed as a 77 affliction lock. Basically, take out your voidwalker, and put a curse of doom and siphon life on him on the lich, this doesn't generate too much threat, and you should be able to keep your mana up for a pretty long time. Then just health funnel your voidwalker until the lich goes invincible and makes you choose. Kill the NPC of your choice and the other will help you. Then do the health funnel, siphon life, curse of doom on him until he's dead. If you have enough mana and feel comfortable with it, you can nuke him down here. I finished the fight with a lot of health and a decent amount of mana, the trick is just to not generate threat, because you can pretty much keep your voidwalkerat full health throughout the whole fight. Takes a while, but is a pretty safe strategy.

Just put on tank gear and fought in frost presence and it was cake, just death strike when you can and use anti-magic shell when its up and he's casting FB at you.

solo'd as an 80 arcane mage with 17k health 16k spell power. Started by popping mirror image, arcane power, trinket, and then started my rotation of frostfire bolt arcane barrage. I got him down to 30% the other 2 come to life, then I polymorphed Jaloot. While Jaloot was poly'd I popped mana shield and evocated (with glyph also restores health). I then killed Zepik, at this point I then finished off Artruis with about 25% mana and health left. Not easy but not impossible.

Soloed this is an enhancement shaman (level 78). What I did was:

Put up all my totems: SoE, Windfury, Mana-Spring and Frost Resistance (since he does frost damage)
Then I just started nuking him until I was around 40% health. At this point I popped Feral Spirit. For further healing on yourself use Healing Wave with 5 stacks of Maelstrom. When I was low on mana I popped Shamanistic Rage.

Then when he reached 30% and became immune, I didn't attack any of the two NPCs just yet. I waited until my Feral Spirit was almost ready (for engaging the Lich again) and kept myself alive with everything I could: Heals, Stoneclaw Totem to taunt them off me! Also used a mana pot, though ^^

I was actually surprised to succeed on my first try.

Just tried to solo as an 80 Arcane/Frost mage. Everything went fine till he got to 30% and I had to kill one of the adds. I chose the frenzyheart one and polymorphed the oracle. After killing the Frenzyheart add, went to start dps on Artruis again. He somehow got back up to 57% and is evade bugged. The oracle keeps attacking him but it says Artruis is immune.
After an hour wait I returned to find him still at 57% and immune to dmg, with the oracle STILL attacking him.
I opened a ticket. GG Blizz.

Soloed as lv 77 shadow priest ~950 sp
Just engaged him to get a grasp of how difficult he'd be, but managed with a super mana pot to get him down to the point where he spawns his adds. At that point i had zero mana and 2000hp or so, so I just decided to leg it.
This is when I noticed, as other have mentioned above me, that you can disengage the adds while still being in combat. So healed up and waited a good 5min for mana and cooldowns (at which point Artruis somehow had jumped up to 71% hp), and then gave em hell again.
Result!

Solo'd as a Lv76 Enh Shaman quite easily, mainly in quest reward blues/greens

Start the fight with totems down, normal stuff with these group quests gone solo. Proceed to beat up Artruis like one normally would, with such moves as Stormstrike and Lava Lash (if you don't use these as an Enh shammy, you're just silly). He will hurt you...this is expected of a monster you are fighting. Though, while being attacked, you should be able to heal somewhat decently, with the use of your maelstrom proc's insta-cast action.

If the maelstrom proc heals aren't balancing out the damage being done to you, don't be afraid to whip out your ghost poochies. You will likely be able to use them a second time during the fight if you use them relatively early. The poochies will keep you healthy and full of non-death, so...yeah.

Once he starts getting close to freezing himself (~30-40%, I think) or you are running out of mana (whichever comes first), pop Awesometistic Rage and get all your blue stuffs back. It is kind of important that you have full mana by the time he freezes himself, and this is why...

When the two goobers unfreeze, they're going to proceed to beat you up. Attack the one of the faction you don't want to be friendly with, and stick to it. Heal yourself with your maelstrom procs, as well as some quick lesser heals if needed (since sometimes these mobs will bug out, and hit 100% health again). Try to last long enough for Shamanistic Rage and your ghost poochies' cooldowns to finish, because using them makes fighting the undead guy easier. Since they don't have the same CD, if you pop the poochies earlier than you do Shamanistic Rage, you can get them both back at about the same time, for when he unfreezes.

When he unfreezes, he'll instantly shoot you with his ice pew pews, so you should be at a moderate amount of health. Beat him up with your ghost poochies, Shammyrific Rage, and your oh so wonderful "hit stuff really fast for 40 secs" skill, and he will go splat.

Soloed as an 80 prot warriror with decent gear. First part getting him down to 30% went pretty smooth, had 17k health left, 25k unbuffed, 27k buffed. Had already used regeneration early to hope to use it twice during fight. Had not used last stand or any potions. Fought the frenzy heart guy keeping the other guy close and dps'd him down, but was down to 12k health when the lich came back up. With the help of the oracle guy was able to dps the lich down, used last stand, a second regeneration, runic health potion. Biggest thing is to properly use spell reflect right before she does the frostnova. She does two of them back to back each time, so right before it goes off use spell reflect, start dpsing, second one starts up and right before use one of your trinkets/shield wall for extra protection during that time. By the time the next wave of frostnova's come around spell reflect will be cooled and you can block the first one and use the other trinket for the second. When I killed her I had less than 1k hp left so it was a close one and could have went either way.

Just soloed this as a lv80 Frost Mage. Put up Mage armor to help with mana regen, Ice Barrier, and Frost Ward. Summoned Water Elemental and Mirror Image at start at fight. I spammed Frost Bolt and the occasional Fireball when Brain Freeze procced. Keeping Up Ice Barrier and Frost Ward when available.

When the two npcs are let loose I sheeped the one I wanted to save and attacked the other with my water elemental. I used Cold Snap to bring WE off of cd. Then just finished the fight by continuing the strategy above.

I have the Glyph of Evocation so this helped keep my mana and health at a decent level. Used it along with Ice barrier and and frost ward so that I would not be interrupted. Finished the fight at about 10% health but thats because I messed up at some parts.

Solo'd as a level 76 enhancement shaman. The start seemed to be easy, was dealing a lot of damage with bloodlust my wolfs and my fire elemental totem. Also keep putting down the Grounding totem whenever it is ready. But then the spirit wolfs went away and I had to pop the shamanistic rage buff. Also useful for regaining the mana I had lost for healing myself. Keep refreshing mana shield so you don't run out of mana. I got him down to the 30% without to much trouble. Then the hard part, by now I was almost out of mana again, kept using mana shield to get my mana back up. Used a health potion (runic health potion). During the fight with the the wolfar and the gorloc (I was killing the wolfar) my spirit wolfs' cooldown finished. So I used that to regain my health and kill the wolfar. Then came the hard part, kept spamming mana shield and the Grounding totem. My fire elemental had died, or expired by now so I was on my own. Just had auto attack on and used lesser healing wave every time I could. Eventually I was to eager and decided to use a spell instead of lesser healing wave because he was almost down. That mistake was fatal. Luckily the guy started attacking the little murloc which gave me enough time to reincarnate and finish the guy of.

It would have been a lot easier getting a group, but the feeling of being able to do this is definitely worth it.

My gear consisted of Uncommon (green) and Rare (blue) quest rewards, and certain Rare (blue) dungeon items. No TBC epics or anything. I had the nerubian Leatherworking enchant on my legs and +12 stamina on my feet, hands and chest.

Very easily soloed as a 80 mage.

Always keep frost ward up, place 2 scorches living bomb and start nuking like hell (dont forget mirror image) until you reach 20%. Meanwhile renew frost ward and keep your nuking.
At 20% he goes imune and the 2 adds come alive, sheep the one you want to level your reputation with and nuke the other one (both are CC and snareable).
After he's dead, the lich comes back up, finish him off and you're done.

Mana shield is your friend :)

Solo'd as a 78 Enhancement Shaman. Threw down SoE, Frost Resist, Healing Stream and Windfury totems, used Shamanistic Rage and Feral Spirit (SR twice, actually) as well. Forgot to use Bloodlust...heh. Mainly consisted of me meleeing and throwing in the occasionaly Stormstrike/ES/LL and healing through his damage. With Water Shield up, I didn't get low on mana at any point. When he went immune and the two captives came at me, I kept the strategy going - they didn't hit too hard, I just had to keep healing myself through it all. Generally wasn't too tough, just keep an eye on your health and don't worry about your DPS - if you stay alive, he'll go down.

soloed as a 77 shadow priest. First time i tried i ran out of mana when the two guys defrosted, got him second time though.

Pretty simple, start fight with vampiric touch, SWP, vampiric embrace and devouring plague up. Shield whenever you can, mind flay continuously and use mind blast on cooldown. The mind blasts proc your mana regen which helps. I went oom at 50% ish and used shadow fiend, then oom again on the adds and used dispersion then a pot when back on the boss again.

Quite comfortable in the end.

Soloed as a 77 feral druid. A few tips useful to ferals, and to others:

He's immune to stuns and interrupts so dont even try.

Make sure you have savage roar up already from one of the skellies near him, and open up with a full complement of bleeds. (Pounce, mangle, TF, rake, mangle to 5cp, rip) After that regrowth+rejuv and hit bearform.

Since he does primarily magical damage (but will melee you a good bit) you will have to heal quite a few times.

His novas generally seemed about 15-30 seconds apart, I used the opportunity to shift to break the stun as well as apply hots while in caster form before heading back into bear / cat.

I'd recommend using cat berserk instead of bearzerk, because murphys law states he will frost nova you the second you use it, and powershifting out will drain your rage, but not energy.

Always shift out of the ice nova. He'll follow it up with a ice lance, which can hit pretty hard if you're frozen. I used innervate and a runic mana potion to keep up with the healing and shifting costs.

I got to practice a few times, since he bugged out and despawned on me like 3 times =p

Soloed as a level 80 frost mage.

What I did: Stood at range spamming frostbolt while fighting Artruis alone, popping WE at the beginning of the fight. Kept up ice barrier on every cooldown which protected me from almost every one of Artruis' frostbolts (the barrier only broke twice over the entire duration of the fight). Around the point the adds popped I burned down the Oracle pretty quickly which reactivated Artruis. Popped icy veins+evocate to bring my mana pool back up and went back to spamming frostbolt, etc.

I was able to do this kitted out in BiS T7.5 gear (my computer has been on the fritz so no T8 for me yet ><) without using frost ward, mana shield, mage armor, ice block or invis (although it seems that last ability would bug out the fight anyways), but for other frost mages having a struggle soloing this guy those tools are certainly there for using.

Soloed as an 80 Arcane Mage, PVP spec.

Magic Absorption and Frost Ward will grant you a ton of mana, and since Arcane gets stronger the more mana you eat... I was able to get through Phase 1 very quickly, he didn't even feel like targetting my mirror images and I still hardly took damage.

Phase 2, I sheep the one I want to save, Nova the one I want to kill, Evocate, slow, and nuke. You can easily kite the Oracle if you keep Slow up if you are unable to take his hits. The Frenzyheart will be harder as he is ranged, but nuking is still possible, as you should still be nearly full health and full mana.

Phase 3 is just a rehash of phase 1, you're nigh invulnerable with the two abilities, so it'll be cake.

Soloable as a 77 ret pala. Buff yourself up with Kings and use Seal of Wisdom and Frost Resistance Aura.
Heal when ever it's needed (start casting Holy Light when you are under or at 60%), use Blessing of Freedom when he Frost Novas you. Keep doing the same when you attack the 2 faction mobs (repentance the one you don't want to kill, repentance will break when you kill the other). Seal of Wisdom combined with the mana returned from judging should provide enough mana. It's a lengthy but failsafe method.

Solo'd this as a 79 Shadow Priest in mostly blue and green quest gear. Used 1 mana pot, got the kill with about 60% life left and 20% mana.

The key, as Lucavious noted in an earlier comment, is keeping your mana up. It's hard to take the 2k+ frost bolts, so shielding was necessary for me, but I'd eat one or two in between shields and then try to time a VE with a DP, MB and MF to try to get some life back. Keep all your DoTs up. At about 70% health I popped my shadowfiend, got some mana back, and managed to get down to the 30% mark where the adds pop.

The adds are fearable so I dotted up the Frenzy (in my case), feared them both, did as much a damage as I could, and as the Frenzy died, I popped dispersion. This had the nice side effect of the the Oracle grabbing aggro for a couple of seconds allowing me to come out of disp, re-DoT, shield, and then just let it all fly for the kill.

I know everyone's said something akin to this already, but I just wanted to put my two cents in here.

This is easily soloed by an 80 Holy Paladin, but it was so easy I bet someone at level 77 who knows what they're doing could've done it too, even without Sacred Shield (In all honesty, I forgot about it until I had already defeated one of the adds. The shield made the second half of the fight easier on healing :P). Here's the buffs I had up at all times:
-Seal of Wisdom
-Frost Resistance Aura
-Blessing of Kings (You don't need mana regen at all, but more int for spell power and crit is good)
-Sacred Shield (Entirely, if not, mostly, nullifies all his melee damage).

Basically I judged Wisdom on him, and just mashed every ability I had, healing as necessary. Took about 8 minutes to down him, but I got him no sweat. (Edit: I also tried to heal only when I was below 50% and when I had Sacred Shield procs to guarantee a Flash of Light crits to keep my mana high)

If you have the talent to get instant cast Flash of Light on holy shock crits, then use Holy Shock on Artruis if you think you have the health to spare. I was using Exorcism, Judgment of Wisdom, Holy Shock, Shield of the Righteous, Sacred Shield, Holy Wrath, and Consecration everytime they were up and I never went out of mana while meleeing the whole time.

Very easy fight.

soloable for lvl 77 affli lock

Use hunt and put your dots (maybe CoT can be useful, i thought about it only after i killed him...)
After you put your Dots use Drain Life, and SB when you got Shadow Trance.
allways refresh your dots...
When you got to dangerously low health use HS or Death Coil (it won't fear him, but it will heal you...)
Use Dark Fact when you need mana.

Second Phase

Fear the one you want, and use the samethings you did on the first parse on the second mod.
Use Life Tap when you have full health...
When you kill him you should have full health and about half of your mana.

Third Phase

The same as the first one...

Soloed yesterday as lvl 80 Restoration shaman (Vihor, Terenas EU).

Tactics: Grounding totem sucks up frostbolts, Healing stream totem and Riptide to restore health. Water shield up all the time and Mana tide totem when mana was needed. Lightning bolts, shocks (his spells are not interuptable as previous posters said) and Fire elemental for DMG. Beware as Fire elemental on his own will aggro one of the adds (wolvar or oracle NPC) and you will not be able to pick faction you want.

Best to drop Fire elemental after you pick your faction - attack NPC of your choice. NPCs have around 45k health.

Protadins should have no problem with this fight.

Go in with Frost Resistance Aura, helps a fair bit as she casts until she's out of mp. Her spells won't hit hard, keep DP up and chew through her hp.

I forgot to switch from my solo gear, so I was quite crittable and never had an issue. All blue 79 pally.

The faction mobs won't be a threat either, they have a lot of hp but do little to no damage.

Once you've killed the faction npc of your choice, take her on, she'll be out of mp, and here she'll hit a little harder, but nothing at all to worry about. Nuke her down and have a blast.

If your group has kill the wrong faction mob don't complete the quest (and don't abandon it). You can wait for someone else to kill him and then you can complete the quest at the mob that spawn for the other group.

this works even if you are ally and horde kill him

Solo'ed as a lvl 77 marksman hunter.

The frostbolts hitted my pet for 1500-2000 frost, and my mend pet heals for 1100-1200, you only need to pull with you pet and let him 5 secs or more to generate agro, cast misdirection on your pet and use the most powerfull shots you have.
When your pet is low on health, you can renew your mend pet, cast distracting shot and deterrence, when the deterrence goes out, wait if your pet isn't full health in viper stance to gain some mana, and use FD. After the second deterrence, use a potion or if you're herb, your heal.
At 30% you only need to put a trap in the mob you don't want to kill and kite the other mob, when the mob is down, let your pet gain some agro, use misdirection and kill artruis ASAP.

Hope this helps, I tried to solo him as a level 80 Pally, but I didn't read the message that pops up telling you he's immune (DUH), so I kept hitting him and ran out of Mana.

Soloed as 77 DK.

I used everything and kept a really good rotation for my DS which is a must if u want to down him. A pot and a ghoul sacrfice got him down to 20% but when the add showed up I died. BUT this is not a problem the NPC tanked and I got back fast and finished him off.

A final note:

The NPC you kill is the one you will ally later! Try remember that and not the other way round... which is far more reasonable however!

For any rogues trying to solo this one, don't bother its just not possible. Doesnt matter what gear, flasks, buffs you have, a rogue simply can not solo this elite. Extremely annoying trying to get someone to agree to come out to Sholazaar Basin just to kill a poxy level 77 elite.

Doh. Friendly reminder;
If you're running around raising various reps in between leveling, make sure you haven't maxed out your dailies before running off to kill him.

The follow-up (choosing oracle/puppy path) after killing Artruis is a daily quest (easily checkable ofc, but didn't even cross my mind when setting off).

realy easy for a resto shaman.(even with bad gear)

you just take him slowly down, using:

lightning bolt.
lavaburst.
reptide.
lesser healing wave.
Totems.

if you shale fall down in mana you shale at the part where the 2 mobs start attack you take a chill. you dont even have to use manatide totem. buff you self with earth shield and reptide and then just nuke 1 down with wep only and you shale be around full mana and then ready to take the rest of him down..
easy as pie:D

Solo'd as a 77 feral druid in tank gear (16k health) for the extra health buffer NOT the armor - he's a spell caster armor doesn't help. Didn't try in kitty gear (12k health).

Anyway I started off by hotting myself then went cat and attacked. Tried to keep savage roar up for the 30% extra dmg, then mangle, rip and rake (in that order). Whenever I executed a finishing move and had taken some damage I would pop an instant heal on myself (thanks to the recent talent change with Primal Instinct? forget which one it was) and then resume. You can interrupt his frost bolts with bear charge if you've got some spare mana (go bear->charge->back to cat).

When he spawned the helpers I just picked one and did the same thing SR, Mangle, Rip, Rake, heal self, repeat, then switched back to the boss when the helper died.

Go go self-healing melee! For all you warriors out there: Nyah nyah nyah! Neener neener! :)

Take care.

p.s. I didn't state the obvious: innervate as needed, pot as needed, helps to have some potions active (I used Major Agility and Fortitude), shift when ice-blocked to keep attacking or just heal and when you reshift you'll break the block, etc., etc.

soloed this as a 77 DK blood/dps, just gotta time the anti-magic right before he sends you his frostbolt and youll be able to dodge both of his 2 bolts until you're able to move again, took me like 5min to take him down, but he went down.

As an Unholy Death Knight I solo'd this. I fought until the two monsters came. I killed the Frenzyheart one and then I died. I released and ran back. The Oracle monster was still fighting the boss for me so I resurrected and finished him off.

I solo'd this as a fresh level 80 protection warrior (all quest blues/greens). I had less than 10% health left at the end.

The key here is reflect his frostbolts and mitigate his melee damage. He cannot be stunned or silenced.

The first thing I did was charge in and hit retaliation. He immediately began casting frostbolt so I spell reflected it and then switched to defensive stance. In between casts he does modest melee damage. When I switched to defensive stance I immediately hit shield block, thunder clap and demoralizing shout, respectively. This reduced his melee damage significantly.

From that point on just make sure to spell reflect as often as you can. You will not be able to reflect every single frostbolt. He occasionally casts frost nova, runs away, hits ice lance, then casts a frostbolt. I waited until after his ice lance to use spell reflect because frostbolt hurts way more. I also used heroic throw while I was frozen.

When he is at 30% two NPCs start attacking you. These can be crowd controlled. If you need to heal yourself you can fear them and bandage. I made sure to use my AoE abilities (thunder clap, demo shout, shockwave) to lower their DPS while I killed one. When one is dead, the other helps you kill Artruis.

I did not find any time to bandage while fighting Artruis himself but I was able to heal myself somewhat. Second wind was useful when he used frost nova. Enraged regeneration, last stand, and a runic healing potion were all used at various points.

I used shield wall while burning down his last 30%.

Well that was damn hard to solo. Level 79 feral druid.
I used frenzied regen twice, innervate twice, and came out to throw on healing touch about 6 times.
He doesn't hit THAT hard, he's just got a lot of health. I came out of bear at around 6k health (from 19k), and threw on 2 healing touches and a lifebloom every time. It got me through, and I was back up to almost full health, easily healing through his damage even in caster form.

I would definitely recommend at least another person to help you out with this. It's not so much killing Artruis that was the problem. Each of the adds has ~45k hp and they're 77 elites. I had trouble dealing with the two of them, but luckily they are vulnerable to stuns etc, so I could find time to heal up while killing them too.

I thoroughly enjoyed that!

Soloed 2nd try as 77 enhacement shaman. First time died during add fight and rezzed. He disappeared when I rezzed so don't do that. 2nd fight I dropped soe, fire spirit, healing totem and windfury. Spammed SS,LL, and ES throwing in an occasional Flame shock and Lava lash. Hit a few heals and rage when I needed it. Just went all out in fight until Fire elemental despawned. Took a few hits then sent in wolves to heal. Got him down to 30% or so till adds spawned. Finished off dog guy then got killed by Altruis. This time I ran from graveyard and was able to get there before add died bandaged and jumped in fight with wolves again. Finished him off. Also found you cannot jump over ledge into pit when running back but you should have enough time to make it around. Think trick here is to get killed soon as add starts fighting Altruis so hes got plenty of health left for you to make it back in time.

One bug that i found...

I solo'd this guy on my dk and hung out 4 a while wondering how blizz came up with the idea to make evoled murlocks...so both the pot nd the guy (murloc dude) despawned...after a bit another Artuis spawned so i went up and try'd to kill again however this time i was not able to.
i asked sum guildys to come try to kill him for meh and wenvr i hit him he despawned saying "Ah the hero's, your friends told me you would come and hunt me down" however i knew this was what he usaly says. after a while the ticked i opend up earlyer said he should be fixed. however when i went to him his name was Thrall and he looked like the warlord Thrall leader of the horde....i truly hope no1 else has this problem.

As a frost mage, I found this fight extremely easy. I won't reiterate a strategy that's previously been written, however I do have a few goodies to share.

First, if you have Glyph of Frost Ward, you can, obviously, reflect some of his frost spells back at him. I saw this happen quite a few times during the fight. Very nice.

Also, the add you do not want to kill can be polymorphed, which saves you from taking some damage. He also pops right out of poly once the boss is no longer immune, so you aren't wasting his damage.

Hope this helps!

Joining the "I soloed this" -crowd; Soloable as a lvl 78 Elemental Shaman. What I did was, aggro him, tried to use my earth elemental to tank him (but he's not very good at keeping threat), and once I started getting damage I simply started healing myself with lesser healing wave. Popped open Elemental Mastery, once that ran down, I opened up Heroism and DPS'd him until he freed Zepik & Jaloot. Killed Zepik. Continued DPS:ng and selfhealing, and he fell in about 10 seconds. Oh, I also had to use some mana replenishment - Thunderstorm and a mana potion during the fight due to the healing needed and forgetting to refresh water shield in the heat of the battle.

Solo'd this as a level 77 Enhance Shaman.

Gear: BC epics (x6) and WotLK dungeon/quest blues & greens (remainder). 12.3k Health/9.4k Mana (for perspective)
Buffs: Lightning shield, WF both weapons, Elixir of Mageblood (20 MP5), Spellpower Elixir (58 SP)
Totems: Stoneskin, Frost Resist, Mana Spring, Windfury

Fought him at the back part past the 2 mobs. The main key - cycle Grounding Totem.
I only took 1-2 Frostbolts from him based on his casting cycle and my Grounding totem cycle.

Started the fight without any pets (wolves or elementals), but popped Bloodlust about 15sec. into fight. Went as long as I could. Save your Maelstrom Weapon buffs for instant heals (healing wave). Keep Lightning Shield recast and Grounding Totem cycled. When he first Frost Novas to run away from you... call your wolves. That will keep him busy and giving you regen. This should take him to 30%.

When the Adds come, drop Fire Elemental Totem keep them together as much as possible and attack the one you want for the appropriate Rep. Keep Lightning Shield up also and keep healing yourself with the Maelstrom buffs, AND (this is key) pop Shamanistic Rage if you need it. I popped it near the end of the Add fight and still had it for the final fight with Artruis.

Went back to Artruis and got as low as 10% health. Kept healing myself and let the Fire Elemental and the (now) friendly Add help kill him. Quick edit: I did use a Heal Potion near the end of the fight to save my arse and buy some healing time.

Hope this helps someone.

Soloed this as a 79 Blood DK (bloodworms, dancing blade).

Killed some trash mobs for runic power, summoned ghoul then opened on Artruis with dancing blade. Then IT and PS so you have 4 diseases on him. Healed first hit with lifeblood (optional if you have it) then simply Heart strike away and use death strike after every 1-2 bolts he casts. Watch your rotation so that you refresh your diseases in time. This is absolutely vital because you ARE going to use death strike alot to heal.
Once he goes immune and spawn his adds it's a good time to catch a break. Simply use death strike to heal up on the adds. Once you are finished with the adds dancing blade should be ready again so the last part is easy. Blade > IT > PS > DS > HS > HS > HS > HS etc. (i didn't have time to use death coils because i needed the extra seconds to heal up).

He's suprisingly easy to solo...the time between each bolt is long enough for you to focus properly.
Icebound fortitude, death pact and anti-magic shell are good panic buttons and give you some seconds to take a breath.

Solo'd as a 76 Ele Shammy. It took about 5 min. Here are my tips:

1) I'm a JC on my shammy, so Twighlight Serpent helped alot (that bonus damage is great). I popped it every 2 min.

2) Runic Mana Potion. It's a long drawn out fight, and you'll need it at the end to drop your fire elemental totem.

3) Use EE to tank, keep it healed, and use Wind Shear to lower your aggro (not to interrupt!). Pop Fire shock Lavaburst when LvB every CD. Otherwise, keep the EE alive, and occassionally when he's topped off, fire a few LB's. Pop trinkets as often as you can.

4) EE should last all the way until the two guys break from ice, then his HP will drop like a rock. Focus the one you want down as quick as you can, sparing any 3 second interval you think you can spare for a few quick heals (I used Healing Wave instead of lesser for this fight).

5) When you kill your appropriate one, drop your FE totem, and concentrate on keeping yourself alive. Grounding Totems when mana allows it, and Flame Shock - LvB after you chug your Pot.

6) Note: I am a troll, and yes, I forgot to use Berserk during the fight. SO REMEMBER YOUR RACIALS! (Bloodlust I used on the "burn phase" of the two guys)
It takes time, but it's doable. I had 8K/11K health doing it this way (only 1K of 13K mana though)

Edit Notes on my stats/Gear/ Totems:

Stats: Bonus Dmg 1030, Crit 24.19%, Haste 32, Manaregen (w/ shield): 347mp5/276Mp5, Hit rating 57.
Gear of Note: Sailor's Knotted Charm (Trinket with Haste On Use), Twighlight Serpent (2 Runed Dragon Eyes in Socket), Venture Co. Lightning Rod. and 2 pieces of Dark Nerubian Armor.
Totems. Opened with WoA, ToW, EE and HS. Left WoA out for the first minute or so before dropping Groundings. When dropping FE, I didn't re-drop a new Earth totem, since Atrius is a caster, and I'm Ele... none would really help and just consumed too much mana.

Easily solo-able by a 78-80 hunter, as long as you keep a mend pet up for the whole fight. Just finished it at level 79, with a warp stalker pet tanking (At about 10k hp).

In theory, as of 3.3, Frost Mages should be capable of soloing this guy a ~~couple~~ few levels earlier than other classes with very minimal damage lost.

A frost mage with a permanent water elemental can simply sit by and let the water ele "tank" Artruis, as your pet ele will be able to damage Artruis but Artruis's spells, which are all frost damage, will be unable to harm the frost-immune Water Elemental. I do believe that both of the npcs are sheepable, as I found that they were fearable when I did this on my priest so I assume most conventional cc should work on them. Throwing in a couple frostbolts on Artruis here and there without exceeding your pet's threat, you can sit by with ease until Artruis falls. It will take longer than just burning him down yourself, but the purpose of this strategy was for someone who is a little low for soloing this the normal way anyway. That being said, a mage's high resistances in conjunction with its many, many shields will keep all appropriate-leveled mages safe, and will certainly come in handy for the lower-level frost mage should s/he accidentally pull aggro.

Solo'd this as an 80 frost mage stacking resistances. It was ridiculously easy. I had , Magic Absorption Talent, Magic Attunement with Dampen Magic. Frost warding Talent, Glyph of frost ward, and of course Frost ward itself. I had the water elemental with glyph of eternal water. A guide to the fight (this fight can be done as a mage pre-80, but it wasn't until 80 I finished the quests leading up to it):

Summon Water elemental, eat food the gives you Stam+Spell Power buff, damped magic and Ice armor. Ice barrier. Once you're ready, start the fight. The first 70% of his health I took no damage. Keep counterspelling and frost warding on every cooldown. Remember to keep Ice barrier up. Keep spamming a combination of Frostfire Bolt and Frostbolt. When you get fingers of frost procs deep freeze followed by frostbolt. At 30% it gets more difficult. I had My water elemental tank Jaloot while I concentrated on Zepik. After I killed Zepik, the fight was easy again.
Good necklace rewards plus unlocking daily quests for Oracles/Frenzyheart (depending on what you chose).
Edit: Didn't know about the "Water Elemental is immune to Frost Damage."

Worked on this as a solo, 78 Demo lock. Used Fel Guard as a tank. Switched from Health Funnel on him, to Drain Life on Artruis, with Curse of Elements on boss.

Took about 6 minutes. (Sure, I could've thrown some dots on him or something but the pet was taking damage quite a bit, so I wanted to focus on keeping him alive while draining the life from the boss.) At 30%, I kept the Oracle feared while killing the Frenzyheart, then went back to work on the boss and pet.

Thank goodness no enemy players were out there this time; nothing like soloing something and then getting killed right at the last minute... (sigh)...

Pretty simple for a brand-new 80 affliction lock (mostly blues and greens).

I thought he was going to be more difficult so I brought out the VW to take a few blows while I dotted him up... I shouldn't have bothered. Drain-tanking and life-tapping worked beautifully. I was at full heath and mana when the two little guys unfroze. Now, I had a VERY hard time targeting either of them; they both ran behind the lich. Next time I'll not bother clicking and just tab target. During my targeting fumble I lost the VW and used my heathstone to stay comfortable. The two of them take your health down faster than the lich.

Next time I'll just keep the imp out.

Okay, as of 4.0.3, he's easily doable as a 77 Ret Pally in quest greens/blues.

Like another user says up there, resistance aura (all resistance auras are now together) is critical. I was in ret aura when I started this (forgot to change), and quickly switched over and man, the difference in health lost was amazing. With resistance, I was keeping an average nearly 700 damage off me... and I had no other resistance gear.

He's undead, so Exorcism every time Art of War procs is also critical.

With the new Holy Power mechanic, you have not only Flash of Light but Word of Glory at your disposal for heals, and even two stacks/charges of Holy Power at 2/3rd of my health got me almost full.

I did need one mana pot right before the ads, from Flash of Light heals, and had used Divine Plea before that. This was honestly the hardest part, managing my mana. (I'm not a very good paladin, I'm leveling this one for fun. :p)

I did this before 4.0 while leveling an enhance shaman... twice. Once soon after Wrath launched, and then again during 3.4. I did need a group with the first shaman, but the second, between knowing the class better and having slightly better gear, I was able to solo him at 78. But it was much easier this time around, even without my Spirit Wolves and elemental totems.

Just soloed him at 77 as a Hunter.

Go BM spec with a Tenacity pet, simple as that.

When the two captives unfreeze, just sick the pet on one and FD so the other goes after it, too.

Oh, and spam mend pet as much as needed (which will be alot). Altruis hits pretty hard, so even my level 77 rhino which is designed to be a tanking beast needed it.

Didn't see any posts stating it's possible to solo as an arcane mage, but it is as of 4.0.

The only buffs I had were Arcane Brilliance and Mage Armor. (and Arcane Tactics, ofc) My intellect was around 940, I only had quest blues and greens.

Start off with Mage Ward, open with Slow, then use Mirror Image. It'll give the images about half a second more to frostbolt him down. Use Arcane Power and a trinket that increases spell power (if you have it), and spam Arcane Blast like there's no tomorrow. Don't bother with Arcane Missiles. Watch his buffs, and the second he uses Icy Veins, spellsteal that. If you run out of mana, pop the Mana Gem and Runic Mana potion. (They don't share cooldowns.) If your images die before Jaloot and Zepik are released, you're pretty much sol.

Once they're released, polymorph Zepik and keep him polymorphed.Throw up Mana Shield, kite Jaloot around with Slow, and Frost Nova. Use band-aids when you have Jaloot Nova'd, and Evoc to get your mana back up. As long as you kite him, you're fine, he's all melee. Wait for Mirror Images and your Mana Gem to come up, then you can blast away at whichever character you don't care for. Make sure to Polymorph the one you want to save.

Once Artuis breaks out of his tomb, just pop Mirror Images again and spam Arcane Blast until he's dead.

If you die after Jaloot or Zepik turn friendly, release and run back.

You must get the killing blow on Artuis to complete the quest. I died, released, and came back only for Jaloot to get the killing blow and didn't get credit.

I killed him at level 85, but i did not got any quest from Jarloot, why?

Comentado por remirol

Managed to solo him as 76 Shadow priest. Using Vamp Touch, SW:P, Devouring Plague and Mind Blast, then Mind Flay rotation with Mind Blast and PW:Shield when needed. Half way through my mana - cast Shadowfiend who helped to tank a bit while getting back my mana. Used the time to healup and recast DOTs.

When adds came just concentrated all damage on the one I wanted to kill but used Runic Mana potion and dispersion to get mana back just before went back to finish off Artruis.

Mana control was the key, and of course not dying :)

I too solo'd it as a L78 Shadow Priest quest gear. Much the same rotation as above. I have alchemy and used a crazy alchemist's potion (3366 health + 4330 Mana plus a 'suprise' benefit) I certainly would not like to try this quest without a healing talent!

Dinged 80 right before soloing this quest as a Ret Paladin. It's very doable, but the bug that has been mentioned above proved to be the most frustrating aspect of defeating Artruis.

I decided that I would be killing Jaloot, but after doing so Artruis completely disappeared, which left me wondering what in the world just happened. A few minutes later he respawned only to do the exact same thing.

I gave it one more go and ended up succeeding. I lead Jaloot as close to Zepik as I could, so when I killed him Zepik said his dialog and helped me finish the quest.

Other than the bug mishap, it's pretty easy. I only had quest gear, didn't use any items and only used Word of Glory and Divine Light to heal.

So if you're having trouble getting a group to knock out this quest, give it a go by yourself and see how you do.

I went in and started the fight, killed the frenzyheart guy, then died. I rezd, ran back, and the oracle guy was still fighting Arturis, who by that time was at such low health I 2-shotted him. Has this happened to anyone else? Cause its awesome.

For what it's worth, I tried killing this guy after initally meeting the Frenzyheart to see if I could jump-start my rep.

Nope. If you haven't gotten enough rep of either, killing this guy doesn't effect your rep at all.

Level 77 Arms wearing full heirlooms and Brutal Gladiator in other slots. Every attempt results in him bending me over and making me his special friend. Nothing to kill for Victory Rush so you can't heal yourself.

UPDATE: Just tried at 79 and wearing Cata gear, nope my pretty armor isn't much help against magic. The increased stats just let me get to the point where they unfreeze before I die.

Don't think an Arms can do it without a having serious edge.

Solo'd as a 77 Feral Druid using mostly L70 S4 PVP Gear.
Shifted into bearform, Enraged, Charged in (Immune btw lol)
popped a dodge trinket and berserk and started spamming mangle.

After he became Immune to damage and the Oracle / Frenzyheart guys came to the fight, I shifted out tossed rejuv on myself, used Regrowth about twice and shifted back to kill Zepik.

After that it was just a nuke on Artruis, I ended the fight with ~85%.

Ok I've killed this guy like 100x and Jaloot still won't allow me to get the quest to start the Oracle dailies. I've completed all the quests in Shalozar Basin except for ones that increase your rep with the FrezyTribe. I've tried turning the game off and back on several times and I'm still not getting the quest. I mailed the GM and haven't gotten a response. Any suggestions?

Comentado por rowaasr13

If you soloing this with Cataclysm geared and high-level character, note that Lich will despawn if he can't reacquire you after you kill one of adds and this is exactly what most often will happen because of your reduced "mob attention" radius. To prevent the long wait for respawn, move under lich's "feet" when he shields himself and nuke add from there.

Comentado por Lombra

Caution: do not kill this guy too fast. Doing so will result in you being able to switch to any of the faction since you don't kill either NPC, however you will not be able to pick up daily quests (until you redo it and properly). What you'll want to have happen is the lich going immune while the NPCs turn hostile. (this happens when Artruis is low on HP) Kill one of them and you're good.

Comentado por 770185

I'm not sure if this has been said enough (because I sure missed it when I sifted through the comments a few days ago), but if you kill this NPC too fast, you will have both dailies, but NOT the follow-ups that allow you to gain reputation.

As an 85 hunter, I often one or two shot this guy and sit there with both the dailies- hence, I switched Frenzyheart (having already gotten what I wanted from the oracles), but had no dailies or any other quests available to gain reputation.

It was only after I slowly melee'd this guy down until he went invincible that I was able to pick up the followups after killing him.

Comentado por 766288

As a side note to the "do not kill Artruis too fast" mistake, I did this as a level 85 mage (twilight/valor equipped) and found that I could not hit him with any spells (i crit'ed him to death at one point). I then went in and literally melee'd him down until he released his prisoners. I assume that ANY melee class can just bag their weapon and punch Artrius?

For those of you who read through these too fast, take note: THIS IS WHERE YOU CHOOSE FRENZYHEART OR ORACLES, so take note on which prisoner you kill!

Upvoted all comments that point to this problem.

Comentado por 729881

For the level 85's trying to go back and do these quests like me, you HAVE to allow them to unfreeze and only attack Artruis down to 30%. If you kill him without allowing them to unfreeze and kill one of them like I did then it will still kind of let you do the quest but there's another one that you get after the first one that actually unlocks it.

Comentado por 966096

For any 85s trying to start the oracles (or frenzy) dailies, here's the lowdown:

When you approach this encounter you see Artruis, and the oracle/frenzy guys in ice blocks. What needs to happen is:
- Beat Artruis down to about 30%
- He sends the Oracle and Fenzy guy to attack you, kill the Frenzy
- Help the Oracle finish killing Artruis
- You get a daily (blue exclamation) turnin on the Oracle
- Now you get a regular quest (yellow exclamation) from the Oracle and you're good to go

How to not screw this up:
- If you've killed Artruis even once the wrong way, you're done for the day, since it is a "daily" quest that pops up after he dies. If you've already clicked that daily but something wasn't done correctly, the regular quest will not show up, and now you've lost the chance to get to it again today since the daily won't show up again until tomorrow.
- Take off all your gear and just have a slap fight with Artruis. If you've screwed it up a few times you already have an idea how easy it is to accidentally kill him. As a hunter i did leave my bow equipped (so I could easily get the killing blow when needed, see below) but was careful not to accidentally shoot during the slap phase.
- After you choose who to save, let them help you slap Artruis a few times (not sure if this is critical but it can't hurt)
- Get the killing blow, once your helper has got a few hits in, blow up Artruis (not slapping). I don't know if this is critical either but I read it somewhere as I was trying to piece this fight together that it's important to get the killing blow - I did and it worked but it might have worked anyway, I wasn't going to risk wasting another day to find out if it matters.

Just went to do this. (By the way, he's in the CAVE)
Killed him by removing weapon and just punching him, real slow. Then he released guys at around 6,900 health. I SLOWLY killed Zepik while standing really close to boss. Did everything by the book. Then, after Zepik died, I SLOWLY killed boss with remaining guy. Stayed real close, made sure he was attacking me too.

After he died NOTHING. no quest, nothing. Jaloot walked to the side, said some junk, and gave me no quest at all. What the heck is with this one. It's so specific. Even after following the rules you can end up with a clock full of wasted time. I'm so sad that I came all the way here for nothing. My Lvl 85 Boomkin cries.

Comentado por Grendelsethe

Here is what I had to do to make this switching faction/completing the oracles to start the dailies work @85:

Stripe all your gear. Have a couple health pots.

Set focus on the NPC you want to kill <Oracle> or <Wolvar>

Do hand to hand combat with Artuis until you get him down just under 7k

He will chain and call the others to attack you.

Click your focused NPC and down them quick.

Health Pot.

Hand to hand again on Artruis until you kill him.

The accept the ! - blue quest from the NPC left alive, complete it.

Then accept the ! - Yellow quest from the NPC and you are go to go.

Basically kill him slow. If you do it too fast it is bugged.

If you leave both NPCs alive it is bugged.

If you kill Arturis too fast DO NOT take the quest wait for the respawn and try again.

You must kill him slow.... Good Luck

All you have to do now is Kill Artruis, then pick sides, this time after exalted with Frenzyheart, i picked the murloc, my rep went from hated to Friendly woth oracles and Frenzy dropped to hated.

It would seem like this quest is misleading. I tried and tried in all various forms and shapes; slow, fast etc. Nothing would give me the quest to pick sides (regardless of reputation).

All you have to do is keep questing with the frenzyheart. Eventually you will get a quest that will lead you to a (very cute) little oracle guy, injured on an island. From there you become friendly with the Oracles and your egg'alicious adventures can begin!

Zepik will walk off, making sure you know that the frenzyheart no longer trusts you.

So I followed all the previous posts, started the questline in rivers heart, did all the frenzy and oracle quests, went to the cave to try not to kill altruis....today was day 3 of trying not to 1 hit him as a 90. I stripped to a tabard and a smile, he was down to about 12,000 health and then an orc came up behind me and killed him. I will persevere and try again tomorrow but really?

Comentado por Eclipsegirl

After I finished up questing in Sholazar, I went to this guy. At level 90 is it easy to take him down, except you do not want to do that.

It took me three separate days to get it right.

I am a Demo Lock. My minion was dismissed, or you can put it on passive. I took Artruis down enough without killing him with one shot of Fel Flame. The two other NPCs unfroze and you take down the enemy of the faction you want to work with.

After you have killed the wolvar or oracle, make sure the living NPC does some damage to Artruis, then you go back and kill Artruis.

You talk to the living NPC, turn in a repeatable quest for about 3 G (I had done this twice already) and then the quest to do the dailies pops up.

If you do not get this sequence done properly, the faction dailies do not pop up.

If for some reason you one shot Artruis, DO NOT TALK to the faction npc.
Arturis will respawn in about 3 mins, and try again.
I THINK my mistake was talking to the faction npc I wanted to work with.

At 30% he will make both attack you, when you kill the one you don't want, let it do some damage before you kill off Artruis!

Can confirm this works like a daily - if you one-shot him and get a quest from the NPC in ice, it will not unlock the dailies, and you have to wait until the next day to unlock them.

This guy is wonky as hell. I'm a Disc Priest; here is what just happened to me:

1.) I took off most of my gear but still one-shotted him. Damn. Both NPCs were still frozen in ice; DO NOT ACCEPT THEIR DAILY QUESTS.

2.) I waited 3-4min for Artruis to respawn; then I took off ALL of my gear. I successfully DPSed him below 7k HP (30%) with a few spells.

3.) After he finished a lengthy Frostbolt cast, Artruis broke the NPCs out of the ice. I killed the Oracle (Jaloot, on the left).

4.) I then finished off Artruis with Zepik's help. I accepted Zepik's daily quest (Frenzyheart Champion) for 3g30s.

5.) I flew to the Frenzyheart Camp. Still no dailies. Wtf?

6.) I flew back to Artruis, took off all my gear again, DPSed him below 30% again, killed the Oracle again, killed the Lich again. This time, Zepik offered me a yellow ! quest named Return of the Lich Hunter. Sigh of relief.

7.) Flew back to the Frenzyheart Camp, turned it into the elder, and started my daily quests. Finally.

Comentado por gmack28

Artruis does NOT always stop taking damage at 30%.

For any 90, you are best off in your birthday suit and a supbar weapon - ilvl85.

With the slower dps, you are less likely to bug the encounter.

For Oracles Rep keep Jaloot the Oracle alive and kill Zepik the Frenzyheart
For Frenzyheart Rep keep Zepik alive and kill Jaloot

How to do this at level 100:

- Fly to the entrance of the cave
- Fly straight up and die from falling damage
- Get resurrection sickness from the Spirit Healer
- Now go to the cave, unequip your gear and melee Artruis down
- When he's below 30%, kill Zepik to unlock the Oracles or kill Jaloot to unlock Frenzyheart Tribe.
- Kill Artruis
- Get the quest from the NPC you left alive

This is the easiest way. You will one-shot Artruis at level 100 even if you are naked.
Hope this helps!

Comentado por Rixanne

Does no one do this anymore? I'm guessing because it just isn't possible to if you are level 100. there is no such thing as slow dps. Wearing zero gear, no buffs, hunter. One slap and he's dead. I kill the faction I don't want, and the other faction guy does not offer any quests, blue or otherwise.

This quest is at the END of a quest chain that must be completed first in order for you to get the choice of factions going forward. Please see Gastando sola#comments for the quest chain map.

Don't waste hours (like I did) trying to kill Altruis and getting a quest from one of his hostages if you don't have the lead-in quest first.

Some people may find themselves switching from Os Oráculos to Tribo Feralma now that the Legion prepatch is here (to gun for the Toy Bebida dos Feralma - this was changed into a toy with patch 7.0).

Whichever faction you are switching to, the Toy Espada de Espuma Macia can help! This toy does damage equal to 90% of the total HP of any mob considered "trivial" - that is, any non-elite mob at least 20 levels below you.
Keep in mind that if a mob is less than 90% health (i.e. you have done some damage to it first), Espada de Espuma Macia will kill that mob.

Espada de Espuma Macia can be purchased from Toy vendors for 50g (minus reputation discounts with the Kirin Tor):

Gepeto Fazquebrinca in Northrend Dalaran
Blax Bumfoguete in Orgrimmar
Crango Tiratampa in Stormwind City

Once you have this Toy, simply use it on Artruis, o Nefando, then kill the mob you need (the mob of the faction you don't want to grind reputation for).

The Problem:

I had a very tricky problem, where I was Neutral (1400/3000) with the Frenzyheart tribe and Hostile (2920/3000) with Oracles. Obviously, I want to hit Exalted on both and reap the rewards. I went to Artruis to try and switch (or atleast start) a reputation, but no quests were given even after getting him to 30% (or under) and killing the opposite faction hostage and finish off Altruis.

So I took it to WoWhead forums and read all of the comments, but nothing worked: killed Pitch, Gekgek didn't react; killed Altruis the next day; etc.

The Solution:

I dissected the situation:

I already have some rep with Frenzyhearts (atleast im above Hostile);
It doesn't let me switch sides;
I got stuck somewhere along a quest chain, no idea where;

Then I found the quest chain - (starts with Playing Along), then I went through the quests to try atleast guess where I propably abandoned the quests for some reason in the past. I got to a point, where I was 100% sure I didn't yet get there. I was too lazy, to start calculating how much quests i'd need to finish to get to my same exact reputation amount and the information wouldn't be helpful anyways, because I couldn't continue the quest chain from the High-Shaman Rakjak (55.0, 69.2).

Then I noticed that each quest from the starting quest chain, has an option to retrieve your quest item in-case you've lost it. By being the last option (before writing a in-game support ticket), I went to talk to Elder Harkek (55.6, 69.6).

And boom, I get the option to retrieve my quest item, I get it and I immediately receive the quest (Tormenting the Softknuckles), that I had abandoned some time in the past and I could continue the quest chain.

Tips:

You can use the Soft Foam Sword toy, to get Altruis (or any other mob) to 10% instantly and with ease.

Comentado por Techhead7890

Sometime since then, you can no longer kill him until one of the two controlled minions have died - he just goes to 1% and releases them - so don't worry about that. Protip though, to enter, fly around and above the horseshoe until you are forced to dismount (saving you half of the walk in); to exit the cave simply jump down through the spiderweb behind him! It'll save you a minute's walk back out the way you came :)

Comentado por wohin

If you accidentally slay both his minions without realising you're supposed to only slay one, just wait for him to respawn.

Attack him with whatever, he'll shield (you don't need Soft Foam Sword anymore), kill the minion you don't want to grind rep for, his shield will drop, kill him, pick up daily from released minion.

Comentado por lavines

You can now not auto kill this guy. After you attack once it keeps 1 hp. So then you just need to choose wich side you want to change 2.
