As they made the Arcanite Reaper recipe now useable by any blacksmiths and no longer only axesmiths, a question came to mind :

I want this plan, as I want to make one of the most legendary 2handers of all time. So, is there any possible way for any class to solo this boss?
I'm having my doubts, as he's placed inside a 10 (once 15) man instance, and I have no clue if he's even able to pull away.

I do know one thing for sure thought, and that is that it's going to be fun trying to.

So if anyone ever manages to do this, even if it's solo or duo, share your experience. It will be fun to try something new.

A guildie of mine farmed LBRS for the plans solo. 70 warrior. what he did was drop down to where bannok spawns, and if he wasnt there take off all his armor and die, run back, reset, and try again. he got the plans after about 4 tries.

Easily solo-able as a 70 rogue in 10/17 epics.

Comentado por 69115

Soloed as a 70 ret paladin with no problems, I also aggro a group of orcs with him except when he spawns in a certain place. It seems that he spawns in 3 different places in the same general area before the spider boss. A normal orc will spawn where he sits when he does not spawn.

After farming for the Arcanite Reaper plans I've seen him spawn 8 out of 31 runs. So it would seem that he has about a 25% spawn rate. (Got the plans on the 31st run :D)

It takes me about 30 minutes to get in 5 runs and hit the instance cap. So for me each run averages to about 6 minutes a run if you kill the minimum amount of mobs possible and know the shortcuts.

Now with the new talents the runs should go even quicker.

Soloed as a 70 prot warrior in t5 content gear rather easily, he appeared on my third run, and the plans dropped on my first kill.

Comentado por Slanyou

Stupid Bannok arrg, tho ive killed him like 5-7 times in around 20 resets no drops yet =(

Comentado por Shivrael

To those of you who got your plans in any reasonable time frame; I hate you. I periodically have been going back to farm this dude since TBC came out and he has yet to show me some love. But you wouldn't believe how many times I've gone in only to find he wasn't even there. His spawn rate for me is abysmal.

Also he sucks.

Also he smells like orc and armorall.

Also he keeps dropping the same blue belt. if it were blue plans I would be less crysome.

Comentado por Dithren

jeez...been farming this guy for 4 days now for the reaper plans, only spawned twice so far.... >_>

Comentado por 262809

I found it to be faster to simply run out than to die and run as a ghost all the way from Thorium Point. You simple turn back and enter the "troll room", follow the steps up and kill any mobs that you agro. As a level 80 none of the mobs should prove to be a challenge and most will not even agro you unless you walk right through them.

After 3 resets, I've still to see him spawn at all.

I only want this recipe for it's sheer nostalgia factor. There's the Bloodied version as an heirloom, sure, but nothing beats the original... the legendary... ARCANITE REAPER HOOO!

Comentado por 86726

Since I really don't see one, I'll write out a simple guide for farming the plans.

At level 80, you can simply walk past all the mobs in this instance, and if you do inadvertently aggro something, even poorly geared you'll be able to get out. Unless you're really unlucky.

Anyway, I went into BRS a total of 6 or so times looking for this guy, he spawned twice. I don't mean to brag, I've had really bad luck too. Both times he was in the same place. That's not really indicative of *all* of his spawn locations, but I'm going with it.

Each time was in the little four-corner tent-thing nearest the giant boulder. (See screenshot.) You should be able to run to the ledge where you see me, wait a moment for the mobs to appear in the distance, and mouse over looking for him.

Initially I was using Elixirs of Dream Vision to scout around. I found they were totally unnecessary, seeing as (I think) he spawns within simple viewing distance. Still, the money I spent I feel was well spent cause those elixirs are awesome.

Hope this helps.

Well i had him spawn 3 times in a row and Demonfork dropped 2 times the gloves one.

i hope i can still get it >.<

Some one please tell me if u cant,thank you

Comentado por 116751

My question is, can he be /targeted from the start of the instance? If not, how far in would I need to go to be able to?

Comentado por Doddz

The way I've been farming, for those that are interested...

As the plans are not BoP, I've been farming them on an 80 alt of mine.
With the macro..
/target bannok

I enter the instance, run up to the right and down, around the corner and on to the ledge once used as a shortcut to the spider part of the instance. From the very end of that ledge I start hitting the macro. From what I've seen he can spawn in 4 different places.

When coming to the end of the ledge, jump off to the right, and keep clicking the macro, run towards the spiders clicking, I believe the macro has a 40 yard range or so. If I don't see him when I get to the end, I run into the mobs to die (I wear no armor, I only put it on if my macro picks him up). As the nearest graveyard is much closer now, I run in, out and reset and back in. rinse and repeat.

I've been trying about 20 runs a day for a few days now, I've seen him 13 times now and he's still yet to drop it, I'll keep trying though.

Comentado por 313373

well ive had it drop once and had one made for my DK and ive been farmin for a 2nd

Comentado por Heeris

Has anyone seen this guy since 3.1? I've been doing 12 runs now and have yet to see him spawn... Am i just unlucky?

Comentado por FourDeuce

Getting to him can be tough if you don't know the instance. After spending a few hours in there, I finally got the hang of it. Here are some detailed instructions to get to him(if you're trying to just get the Arcanite Reaper plans):
Enter the instance. Go up the ramp. You'll be in the Hall of Blackhand. Go up the steps on the right. Go through the first door on the right. When you get to the end of that ledge, jump down to the left. Go down the ramp. Take the door on the left. Go through the hallway(left, right). Watch for the 2-man patrol that pats that area. When you exit the hallway, stop. You'll be just entering the Hordemar City area. Face to the right and hug the wall. Jump down onto the Shortcut Ledge. Go to the corner and you'll fall down onto the next part of the ledge. Follow it to the left until you come to the corner. Look down and make sure it's clear, then jump down. You'll be in the area where Bannok Grimaxe spawns. Sometimes he spawns just to the right of where you landed. Other times he spawns around the corner ahead of you.
If he's there, you should first deal with the roving 2-man patrol that roams near him before tackling him. There's a nearby group that aggros if you attack him there.

It is rumored that this guy by some very and i mean very high connections to the burning blade within orgrimar has "aquaired" the plans for the reaper from saurfang's house so in order to not get killed constantly by saurfang who wants his plans back he is a rare spawn

I went into LBRS after reading some comments, and i walked around spamming my target macro, but i had his name typed wrong, so it wouldn't detect him. After seeing my misstake i found him, in HordeMar city. He was sitting under a small tent, it was alittle hard to see at first, because he is clothed in red, and so is his target name (of course).
Anyways after i got a kill on him, i got the recipe on my first kill. Lucky me i guess...

One of his spawn points i saw was, as you go into LBRS and you take the quick run (of the two ledges then dropping down into Hordemar) there is a small tent right infront of you, he spawnd there sitting down on the floor. Hope this helps.

Comentado por 261954

Well, I just spent all my 5 resets without seeing him once. 1st time it happened to me in a few days of farming him for the plans.... hate this guy :(

Comentado por 261954

After about 3 days, I saw him about 3 times in close to 30 resets. I give up.... I'll farm the AH instead.

Comentado por 561927

I found him just outside the place where the spiders are. On the left side on a rug.

Comentado por Safiola

After reading the helpful comments before my post i managed to produce a nice trick of my own in order to make it as easy as possible.
What to do:
1-buy an Ornate Spyglass from the AH or find an engineer who can make you one.
2-head to the instance and while on your way make the following macro - /target Bannok - and keybind it.
3-once your inside the instance go right over the short ramp to LBRS pass the tunnel and find a position there where you can gaze down to the lower city.((the red tents right and left))
4- use the Ornate Spyglass to gaze down at them and keep hitting the macro untill you manage to target Bannok.
5-Once you get focus on him right click his protrait and mark him with one of the raid symbols so once you zoom out you are sure to find him once you go for the kill.

N.B a-From your position you are free to run out of the instance anytime and reset it without the need to HS or kill yourself and run back.
b-The lower city is his famous spawn spot, and using the Ornate Spyglass works as if you are actully down there even if he is around the corner not so far from the spider boss.
c-worked with me after couple of times, tho i personaly used my Tankatroic Goggles but it should work the same.*shrug*

Comentado por Grandine

As of 4.0.3 the respawn portal for LBRS/UBRS is now outside the instance portal. have fun future nostalgists.

Comentado por moopert

Found him my first time trying and he dropped the plans.

Comentado por gajackson

found this by accident (the thread, not the orc/plans), and wanted to add in a helpful tip:

SilverDragon addon.

It will pop up a window/sound whenever you are in the range of a rare. click on that, and it auto-targets, even if you can't see it. It will also show up on the new version of the minimap to help you if you still can't find a bugger.

This works for all known rares in game, ones in caves, instances, buildings, above ground, overhead, and under, even those stealthed.

Oh, and if you are a hunter, it will tell you if it is tamable (although I have no ideas about warlocks & demonic control).

Well worth the few moments!

Comentado por 686039

If you are level 70 or more you can farm this guy easily.
When you enter the instance move right and then keep moving a bit.When,go up the ramp,turn right,keep moving forwand for a bit until you stop around here.Now a trick:you can go right and jump in the lava,don't worry,there is no fall damage,only the lava damage that ticks for 600 every 2 seconds.
There is a ramp there where you can walk to safety.There is one Unfired Plate Gauntlets in the ramp too.
Congratulations you have saved yourself quite a lot of walking time and you are now in his spawn way.Now you can just spawn "/target Bannok Grimaxe" around the area in the map above.And if you didn't find him(he's a rare spawn after all) you can save yourself a long way back to exit:just remove all your armor(you can make a naked set using the Equipment Manager to make that faster) and pull a lot of mobs,eventually you will die and your body will be just a few seconds away from the entrance.You can now reset the instance and try over and over.
Using the method above it takes around 4 minutes to my level 85 enter Blackrock Spire,see if he spawns and kill him,or kill myself.
But be prepared for a good grind,right now i have:
44 resets
09 times where I saw him(20% of the times)
No Arcanite Reaper recipe drops
I can not think how hard it was to get this recipe back in vanilla,after a long time LFM in trade chat and killing mobs all the way here to just a 1.8%(spawn rate + chance to get the drop) and i really feel how epic this axe was back them

Edit:finally that bastard gave me my plans.it took me nearly 80 resets and 17 kills to get my recipe,and after this grind i have only one thing to say:
ARCANITE REAPER HOOOOOOOOO

does any1 have cordinates for where he spawns or what floor and subzone etc?

Comentado por Grendelsethe

This will give you a prespective as to where he is sitting. When you are facing the ramp to go up where the spiders are he is next to the mob on the left before the ramp. If you go to the mob at the bottom of the ramp you went to far.

And the spyglass trick was awesome!

Comentado por zenoftw

Are you sure this guy still exists? I've run the dungeon at least 12 times and I haven't seen him yet...

EDIT: Yeah after like the 15th time he showed up but I haven't seen him since :(

As of today i can confirm he still drops the plans for the Aranite Reaper. Been farming him found 1 in 5 runs he would appear, lower hordemir city before spiders area. Finally got this bad boy woooh

Comentado por Martika

At this point a rogue can stealth and sprint through this instance to the areas where Bannok spawns in less than 3 minutes. Chances are there is a rogue on your server doing repeated runs of this instance for Heavy Junkboxes to turn in for Ravenholdt rep; you might ask around and offer a nice fee if he or she should get his pattern. In my own runs I have gotten it twice; kept one for myself, sold the other for a pretty penny.

Comentado por frankyw

Hello,
can anyone confirm that he spawns after pacth 5.0.5 ?
I've tried to find him the last days, but didn't find him.

Me wanna those shoulders.

Comentado por DragaFireHawk

You can target him from the entrance with a target macro. I did this earlier today and it did indeed work.

Comentado por Tyowinn

I got surprised by how hard he hit. It makes the situation that more critical when you have a LARGE amount of other orcs on you.

So, spam heal tank, kill the adds fast as possible (or the tank won't be able to endure, I had full looms and I could feel the hits from this guy). When he is the last one standing, kill him.

Comentado por Gallowsfall

OMFG, did they really take him out of the game? WHY?

Comentado por LoqueNahak

Patch 6.0.3, is it still here? Tried the instance 5 times and didn't see him once.

Comentado por SlopArtist

<TL;DR>
Yes, Bannok is alive and well. "Was", I should say. 5 minutes ago, I looted Instruções: Retalhador de Arcanita.

How-To:
For those wondering: The entrance to LBRS resides under the bridge that is the approach to the new UBRS entrance. The new location is convenient as it saves a minute or two of slogging to search for him. (More on this exposition after the How-To.)

1. I set my hearth to Iron Summit. It buys one free-bee fast exit.

2. I made a Macro "/target bannok", and on my mini-map, I turned my "Target" highlight on under my "Tracking" options. (This allows for his location to show on the mini-map if found.)

3. I walked into the instance, ignored the mobs, took my first left, and followed the short, winding hallway. The hall exits to an overlook with guards surrounding patrol fires. As I approached the right edge of the building I walked on, I started spamming the macro. I walked the right most ledge of the structure, to within touching the first group of guards. If he is in this instance, this step will be confirmation.

4. Today, out of the two times I found him (in ~7 minutes), his locations were historical. They followed the classically "inhabited" locations where he has always been found.

5. On both occasions, I jumped down the "ledge" path, and dispatched him. (At 85+ this should only take one hit)

6. I then jumped on Wowhead, and I made my first post since starting World of Warcraft years ago.

Exposition:

The sweet part is, with the entrance so close to the search area, and the ability to exit and reset quickly, it saves a couple of minutes compared to the old reset dance. It can easily take someone around 40 seconds per trip if they take their time. Finding Bannok, and relieving him of both his Plans and nefarious scheming is something I did in the time it took a guildie have a smoke break.
Alas, the Plans are MUCH easier to get now (TYVM Folks @ Blizzard, I truly appreciate it!) Unfortunately the mats are still the same, and be prepared as they are not frequently on the AH.

Pro-Tip:
It does not matter what class you hunt Bannok on. The plans are not BOP so your blacksmith can still have them in the next mail delivery. (My non blacksmith mage found these plans today.)

Thank you for your time.

Update for people farming this NPC during WoD...

First, you've never needed a spyglass... that's not how WoW works. If you are within loading range of an NPC, and do a /tar (name) you will target them if they are targetable. The visual detail on your computer screen has nothing to do with it.

WoW is constantly loading things within a set range (I think it used to be 90 yards, but honestly, I don't remember or know if it's changed). If you have ever ported/loaded into a city with lots of players, you probably experienced some heavy load lag. That's because your system is downloading a bunch of information about every PC and NPC in range, just in case you might interact with them (inspect, click on a vendor, etc).

So, go in, go down to the platform where you would jump to the shortcut ledge, get close to the edge of the platform, do "/tar banno" or however much of his name you want to type (I leave off the "k" because that's how I roll), and either he will be targeted, or you know that a generic NPC has spawned in his place, sitting on one of the three carpets. In fact, the closest spawn point is clearly visible with or without a spyglass. I look down and see if anyone is sitting on the carpet. If it's a generic NPC, I don't bother with /tar, because Bannok didn't spawn... the NPC is in his place.

Second, his spawn rate is MUCH improved. So far tonight, he's been there 7 out of 10 runs. I'm on cool down for too many instances at the moment, so I decided to post this while I'm waiting. Let's assume it is likely that he is spawning half the time in 6.2, maybe better. Still no recipe for the alt I'm working with tonight, but I like the axe he drops. Think I'll keep it for xmog.

Good luck!

I was able to make a "/target bannok" macro, and could target him immediately upon zoning into LBRS without having to even take a step. However, on my next reset, I had to walk down the ramp to the first door before I could target him.

To get to him, from the zone entrance, go down the ramp, and through the door and windy hallway. As soon as you exit the second door, take a sharp right and hug the wall, and jump down. Go straight to the wall again, and jump down to the left. Go straight and jump down and Bannok is down there with about 20 mobs nearby.

To leave the instance, follow the river of lava to the "hall" that's half built/half cave, and into the next large room. Go to the far end of the room and up the first two ramps. Hang a left and go up the third ramp. Then hang a right and through the door, killing a pack of 3. From there, make your way around and across the bridges and you'll be headed back out of the instance.

This rare NPC (and most of the other rares in LBRS) can as others have noted easily be /targeted with a macro without running the whole instance, seeing as it is a floor-based dungeon (i.e. you can target the NPC if it is beneath/above you, and thus makes the instance "short").

One alternative is to either use the macro included in the addon "Silverdragon" (which includes a /target X of every rare in your current zone) or just use the macro below for targeting this guy (also included are macros for some of the other rares in LBRS, simply remove the line which includes the others if they are not needed - for me I also did a transmog run and got everything I needed from here);

/target Bannok Grimaxe
/target Crystalfang
/target Spirestone battle lord
/target Spirestone lord magus
/target Spirestone butcher
/target Ghok bashguud

Simply walk into the instance, take a few turns and face towards the big ogres on the other side - then click the macro. If no hits, simply reset. Several hits may appear at the same time, so if you are farming for only one of them I suggest using only one of the /target-macro.

I've had 4 rares in one run (including Bannok). Also, to quickly reset after jumping down and killing Bannok (he seem to spawn 1/8-10 times for me, but this is pure RNG obviously) simply click "ESC" and go to "HELP" and choose "Character stuck" which will kill you with 0 durability loss and you will respawn at the entrance - walk out and reset instance. Rinse, repeat.

Good luck, have fun and happy hunting!
Arcanite reaper, HOO!

***TL;DR; Make the /target macro -> enter instance -> walk toward the second pack in the dungeon (where you can see ogres on the other side) -> use macro which will either find rares or not -> either run out OR just use the "character stuck" ability which returns you to graveyard (dungeon instance) -> rinse, repeat!***
