You can easily level your weapon skills at the end if you attack the surrounding ogre Spirits. You must not speak to the little Ogre to make you king, otherwise the Spirits become friendly. You want them to be hostile. They won't attack back and they will never die but you can attack them. Bring the fastest weapon you can get with you, good weapon skill leveling ;)

Good to see this is possible, I was afraid it wouldn't be due to King Gordok using sunder. Been successfully running 2 druid(1 resto/1 feral tank) and 1 rogue runs which may be a better option for those that aren't quite as geared

Druids, Ebbnflow! Druids!

I think with a video like this, it would be extremely helpful to show all the gear used by you and the rogue and each of the player's talents at the time of the video

Excellent guide!

I spent about a few hours trying this out with a rogue friend. At the end, it looks like our gear was just not good enough. We both hit 60 a week ago and have like half pre-bis. He couldn't dps fast enough and I couldn't heal enough to keep up with the 2000 damage crits. Still, we had a blast trying as we both like a challenge and this was like trying to down a raid boss for us. It was fun thinking up consumables and the like that could help. We brought in another druid friend to help kill him. We are going to get more geared and try again and hope Blizzard doesn't mess with the encounter.

I've been doing this for the past week or so, the first kill is the hardest without DM buffs, I have pretty much full raid bis at the moment so my damage is quite high. Things to help, Mongoose pot, firewater, Juju, stamina food and grog, songflower serenade and lastly greater stoneshield pot. I've only required these on the first kills to be sure as the corpse run is horrendous. Now the spec.... I'm playing a gimped combat spec with riposte, 17/34 with 4/5 dodge. Riposte helps massively. However the rogue in this video is tremendously lucky. He gets very few stuns if any (I'm an orc and I still get stunned occasionally), hes on 20% hp with no evasion and you're charged, he manages to live. There is 3 potential adds to get, Mage, Priest and Shaman with Shaman being the easiest. Priest is hardest due to the shielding if you aren't in LOS. The mage seems to buff the king with haste which can be scary. Try and save your evasion for when your druid jumps down so you can both dps together.

Gotta say, as a druid, it hurt my soul when you vendored unyielding maul

@Ebbnflow is the rogue combat pve swords specced, if other can u link it pls? And why the rogue didn't got stunned by the king in ur video? Thanks

Really helps having Disenchanting too. Some items are less than 1g50s vendor value. Those turn into 2g+ easy.

The stealth detection icon is phase 5 or 6 (whenever they do the dungeon revamp)

If you didnt know already, if you speak to the Captain (4th Guard) before spawning the Tribute Chest, you'll get an extra Blue Item in it (3rd Item). Atleast it was that way for me in all then runs i've don.e :) Edit: If you get the Engineering Schematic, it counts as a rare, so it would be the "3rd blue drop". Incase you get 2 Blues.

Tried this with a rogue in full pre-raid BiS plus Nightslayer legs / belt. 3.2k health. I was a druid more geared than Ebbn in this video. It was not doable for us, Gordok hits too hard with mortal strike and just straight up one shots the rogue sometimes. Seems like this almost solely relies on how well geared the rogue is.

Talk to Captain Kromcrush (he will be green to you) before becoming the king, get him to run downstairs and come back get the king debuff and open the chest gets you guaranteed 3 blue items. You are welcome :)

got any full feral videos? wolfshead helm, furor, power shifting like ShredoTheDruid? He's pulling 1.2k DPS in raids, but I'm more interested in PVP!

Just a side note. You guys can sell the loot from the chest to anyone outside making gph even more. Selling rings for 75-85g, chest for 50g and staff for 90g. Have invis pots for the person buying if not rogue or Druid.

Thnx for the tips

You apparently forgot to talk to captain krom krush after you killed the boss, so he run to Fengus, it is like wearing the gordok costume, and you will get a third loot inside the chest (you have to do it before getting the King gordok debuff from the friendly ogre)

YOU HAVE TO SPEAK TO THE CAPTAIN FIRST BEFORE THE CHEST TO GET ANOTHER LOOT.........

What's the addon you have that shows a tooltip when you hover over players?

What build are you running this with and how geared do you need to be ?

@Ebbnflow How do you manage to get through the first archway, They always see the druid I am with when he tries to walk through and he has 5/5 stealth

Very nice, thanks for the vid Ebbn. This was my absolute favorite thing to do on Light's Hope. I ran this with a rogue and it's a blast to play. On LH my rogue had to be geared to the teeth (BWL gear) and needed prep to be able to do double evasion. This looks like it's a lot easier on Classic, your rogue is a lot less geared. Of course he is well geared for P1. Questions for you. On LH it felt like there was a time requirement because the rogue could easily go down to some unlucky crits by the boss if they were not actively avoiding attacks via evasion, ghost strike, etc. Did you do this on p servers as well? Can you compare? On LH my rogue used FAPs because the King would stun him (it was a Warstomp like effect) and that could get him killed if he wasn't dodging. Is that happening here or can you comment on that for Classic? What sort of gear would you prioritize for this as the druid? On LH I picked up a lot of + arcane damage because what I really needed was more damage to burn the King down. Also what specs have you done this with? I did it with swiftmend spec and that went well. I preferred to be Balance/Resto NS spec to be able to do more damage. Thanks again friend!

Whats addond do you user for health, energy mana?

How do you fellow rogues prevent yourself from getting bopped by those Mortal Strike burst crits? He sometimes crits a swing then the MS and that adds up to a lot. The MS crit itself is ~1.8k

What kind of gear is required?

You can talk to Kromkrush before you spawn the tribute to get an extra piece of loot each run

LOL its ebb i remember you from oran

I've tried this for two hours with a good geared druid, I'm full preraid bis except for the DM rings and there is no way my druid could outheal the dmg being pumped out on me. Rewatched this video a bunch of times now and no idea what your rogue is doing that makes him seem to take so little damage. Gear difference cant be that great either in phase 1. Anyone has any thoughts?

@Ebbnflow 08:32 What is the Rogue drinking? Potion? Doesn't seem to b e a health pot/FAP/Thistle Tea... Plus I noticed the rogue doesnt get stunned by the war stomp throughout the fight, Good RNG?

Hey Ebn, its Sixmillion from Nost/Elysium/Northdale... sad im not on your server. what addon is that showing how much your HoT's are going to heal you in future?

Video started at 6:23, end at 7:01. (check minimap clock) 40 min run with 2 death and stating 10min/run yeah sure.

Can you solo the observer guy a well to get his staff an helm?

@Ebbnflow, how geared would you say is required for the rogue doing this?

Where is the key for the door at 5:50 ? Is the rogue using LP here?

Been trying this with a pre-bis rogue... We can get to 30%. Do you have any suggestions on how much gear you need for this?

can we get some info on the rogue? whats his rotation like? his spec etc. ? me and a friend are trying this, but I (the rogue) get chunked down super fast once we fight him

What spec are you, Resto? Is it also doable as a feral? Or maybe doable as a feral with healer gear?

You playing on Shazzrah EU?

Quick question...you still resto/balance or running with improved stealth?

nice

how do you get out of the dungeon and reset after this

you discuss doing jump runs, how does a druid do these now that lasher packs are immune to nature? roll with a lock/ mage?

btw its a classic? or private server?

Right now, there are way to many uncontrollable factors for this to work 100% of the time imo. The rogue can get one-shot MS crit on through evasion pretty often. Even with a dodge setup and similar gear to the rogue shown in the video the shaman healer (the easiest one imo) we only got to 2% in around 12 attempts. Maybe in BWL? :0

Sorry, you are highly exaggerating the timings... depending on patrols, killing patrol in boss room, running back, you are probably closer to 15-20 minutes per run,... the advanced armor Smith is 40silver on my server... mana pots are 2g the loot actually averages 15g per run if you do it like you did in the video. I’m getting 3 rare drops in chest and that bumps average When you doing this things you always forget minor stuff that takes time Running back to check chests that spawn after you become king Running back to reset or finding someone to reset you This is AT BEST 4 runs per hour, and you mess up JUST once, and you can have a 15minute time lost depending on where you wiped

The rogue can spec for this, get riposte and prep it helped a lot disarming him and having that double evasion

What Gear does the Rogue have? - seems like Pre-Raid and a few T1 Items (head,feet)

Talents for rogue and Druid?

Meanwhile as a solo hunter I do 200 gold per hour at DMT

Is it 70-80 gold per hour each?

You can use soothe animal on that first hyena near the ramp. 10 extra yards of aggro radius makes that part a little safer and more consistent. One of the very few use cases for that spell lol.

If you talk to the boss right before this one before u become king and u get an extra blue in the chest

just wondering, when you shift into a lion, does it become confused and try to eat his own previously beef leg? 😆

Were you able to do this reliably? I was trying to 2man this with a Druid guildy and we are both more geared than you and your Rogue but sometimes I would randomly get 1 shot. Without using greater stoneshield potions it felt like a fluke at best for us.

Just an F.Y.I., rogues can solo farm the BRD bar area (and kill a BRD boss or two) and yield far more gold per hour than DM stealth runs... plus they're done solo and the earnings don't vary.

That guild name though lmao

How can u have an 81 soup stack?

Wow, the boss hit like truck, I am surprised rouge can take it. I am hunter sometime if unlucky, three hit and I am gone.

Faerie fire probably would help on the boss. 1 minute duration and it increases his damage.

It's 70-80g/h each or to divide in 2? Thanks for the guide :)

It's not because of the "combat cooldowns" it's because the rogue can't stand behind the boss.

Interface your target name addon?

This is nice for enchanters

Where is ff on the boss my guy???

i'm doing 100 to 125 golds per hour as hunter, but i mastered it

As I can see there is no "war stomp" on the rogue and i tryed with a drood of my guild and there is chain wipe and I've better stuff than the rogue on this video. How can we do to make the war stompe doesnt cast by the king?

What rogue is good? U say no dagger one, so which one

Opening the guarded door using an invisibility potion doesn't work on classic ? Also the final boss is basically too fast to be kitted now right?

Cool video. But he said this is better gold per hour than a hunter tribute run? That doesn't make sense since a hunter can do this in the same amount of time and not split the gold.

What spec you running here Ebbn? Don't wanna switch from HotW/NS.

*Cries in shaman* time to learn how to solo princess. I think that’s my best option for gold farm

are you able to solo tribute runs as a druid?

So I tried today with my rogue friend we are both pre-raid BIS. Getting there was piece of cake with your guide. We made it to the boss on first try easy. BUT. For some reason my rogue keeps getting like 1K critical strikes and often 2 in a row while first is mortal strike. So he usually last only for time of evasion and my like 2 sec after my NS heal to max he drops in 2-3 secconds down to zero. He has 3,3k HP he is not specced in extra dodge and parry so that might be difference, but we dont know. What we know for sure that with his current spec and pre-raid BIS gear it is not dooable unless you are really lucky on how dmg is dealt to him. One try when I CR ressed rogue buffed him and kept healing, he for some reason lasted for at least 20 sec, but then 3 crits in a row again and he was dead. DMG is simply way too high.

6:40 How "FAR' the word you seek is FAR.

70-80g each player?

Level requirements?

You think this is possible for a feral aswell? With healing set ofc

You can make loads more money by selling the chest loot.

Super easy, a lot of Cash!

tbh he said teh gold per hour u have to splitt it dont forget. not like 100g its 50 if u splitt and if teh loot is okay. some runs u only got 1g or 2g drops tahts lit nothing at teh end normal splitt after a hourr is 40g or lesser.

Have the rogue unequip and reequip a piece of stam gear before pulling to put him below 100%. Put a rejuv on him and the caster should run straight to you after the first tick in combat

instance lockout is instance lockout. u dont get locked out of one instance but can go do another.....

Out of interest was anyone else able to do this as a duo rogue/druid? Done 25 attempts with a good druid, both of us geared and the best we've done is getting him to 30% health. This is with the druid popping innervate & spam healing, me with 4.1k health and using AGM & health pot most attempts. Doesn't seem to be anything else we could do to get him lower without a third dawg involved

How is this money making method now in classic June - 2020?

Thought I heard if you dont frost trap that one boss you wont get the loot at the end for him? So youre missing out on a good bit of loot i believe

Can a rogue solo this?

Is it just me, or is this based on RNG? I know he says it isn't doable with a dagger rogue, but I have perditions blade and Gutgoreripper as well as pre-raid bis and some t1, which should give me enough dps. This just isn't the problem for me and my friend, I simply get crit for 1,3k into a 2k mortal strike the three times we tried it, which just makes me flop. Anyone else with this experience?

*laughs in hunter*

Is it me or does someone else get suspicious when those "gold making guide" youtubers have only like 50g?

Hm I can do this in 11 min solo on my hunter so I prefer that and not having to split the gold

OMG! The advanced armorsmithing volume 1 top costs on Golemagg 40-50 silver! About what gold are you speaking of?!

"Solo run" *two characters* Um...?

So this isnt soloable as an Engineering druid?

Where are you getting you gph numbers from ? The value of items from king and chest is like 15g average, for one person it makes 7,5g and I dont belive you that it takes 15mins per run. 20min at min according to patrol avoidance and way back. It makes it around 22g/h for one person...

I don't think that's better than solo hunt in fact you split the gold

hmm so if you arnt geared yet n rogue isnt geard just add a rogue should still be legit

ATLEAST 70-80G PER HOUR MY ASS

Nice video, however hunter will definitely make more gold than this, considering they can do solo 12minute runs right now(altho with exceptional gear),

70-80G per Hour? nice clickbait - its never that high
