This event is fun

Not sure if they fized the bug but i hope they did

Strat

Tank holds him ina corner
He will target someone and turn them into red riding hood, when you are red you will have increased movement and must kite him around till the buff is gone
He will usually do an aoe fear when he does this so you wont have help kiting him.

After the buff is gone the tank grabs him back and dps him ina corner

Rinse, repeat

Kommentar von 19979

players having the red riding hood have 0 armor and are silenced too - so either train your kiting skills or have a well prepared fraction of healers in your raid to outheal it.

in addition to that the wolf sometimes aoe fears.

the fight itself is fairly easy - just survive long enough to do enough dps on the boss.

Kommentar von 12629

While you have 0 armor and are silenced, some abilities are still usable:

Rogues can vanish and hunters can feign death to skip being chased when they become little red riding hood.

Mages can Ice Block to make themselves invincible for a bit then blink out of it before it wears off if things get sticky.

Having a decent amount of the new stamina heavy gear can be very important for this, as he'll hit little red riding hood for around 4k for normal hits (6k crushing, 8k crit).

Warriors can use intervene to soak up one hit from little red riding hood. If you're having trouble using intervene, check Shmeerm's macro at https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/spell=3411#z0z (it will allow you to just hit your intervene button with the Big Bad Wolf targeted and have it fire off on the right person).

The AOE fear can (and should be) be dispelled off of your tank. Shadow protecting the raid (or fear ward if you're alliance) helps with fear resists.

Since the wolf only has regular melee attacks, amplify magic helps with healing.

Is this boss always up? or is he a rare spawn?

Kommentar von 23524

Strat:

-We had two paladins in our group, so whenever someone (aside from the MT, obviously) got RRH we BOP'd them and let them stay in place while you DPS the wolf.
-Rogues can vanish, hunters can feign death to preserve BOP's.

Easy as that, avoided running around as much as possible... only ended up kiting when it was the MT as RRH. Turns out like your standard tank and spank.

I skinned him the other night and all i got was 3 knothide leather scraps =/

Kommentar von PirateNipple

The Big Bad Wolf is immune to rogue poisons.

Kommentar von Russta

I'm not sure when they changed this as we've had the Wizard of Oz event for the past two weeks but when we got this tonight we realized that the back wall has been pushed, um, back. This stops those annoying times while kiting where you'd get stuck in the ridiculously thin gap between it and the house allowing him to catch up and obliterate the chosen Red Riding Hood.

Kommentar von Nefarim

My small macro for healers:

/target The Big Bad Wolf
/target targettarget
/cast Power Word: Shield(Rank 12)

use it when you hear
"it's better to...."
this macro will target small red riding hood and shield him

Kommentar von SilverKnight

Arguably the easiest of the three stage encounters, Big Bad Wolf turns one of the raid into Little Red Riding Hood and aggroes onto them obsessively. Learn to survive this debuff, and you will win this fight.

Kommentar von rodmin

There is a cool trick on this boss for a priest with the Spirit of Redemption talent.

If your priest get killed, he will become a spirit as usual. But, if he's the target of the little red riding hood debuff, the spirit buff will fade, ressurecting the priest permanently.

You have to tank the big bad wolf away from the fallen priest so he can have some space to run, or not only will he die, he'll have to pay double the repair cost of a usual wipe. (Excluding druid rezz ofc)

Kommentar von PMV25

Did they change this enounter so the wolf does his swipe stun on the person with the LRR debuff? I read from alot of strategy sites that all say he doesnt do it but hes been doing to us all night. Makes the encounter alot harder..

Kommentar von Merylyan

If you are a gnome female, here's how to make your own little red riding hood disguise :

Interlaced Cowl - World loot, can be found in AH. Gnomeregan seems to be a good place to farm this.
Red Linen Shirt - Can be make by tailors very easily.
Colorful Kilt - Can be make by tailors easily. However, this is not the exact item, the item is the bottom part of the Buccaneer's Robes.

I haven't found something like this yet, but I welcome any suggestions =)

So, if your guild is about to make a killshot of that boss, it may be a fun idea to have this "set".

Kommentar von Lanna

Be aware that if a Pally uses BoP this will remove your speed buff.

Kommentar von 16385

If you start the event and no one goes on the stage, the door will remain locked if you get Big Bad Wolf. Normally you would have to soft reset but if you clear the audience and you have someone that is pro at wallclimbing you can get ontop of the organ, on the right side of it, and jump onto the stage from there, allowing you to start the event and then letting it reset, without having to wait half an hour or whatever it is out of instance for it to reset properly (and for trash to respawn)

Kommentar von RichardHead

Well, FD does not drop the Little Red Riding hood buff after Patch 2.1.

Have a nice day.

Kommentar von 57283

Wolfslayer Sniper Rifle , Beastmaw Paudrons

Kommentar von 52592

Can anyone confirm that Divine Shield doesnt work anymore for paladins? I tried to use it twice, but It only says "You can't do that when Silenced". Too bad if they've changed that.

Kommentar von 18754

BBW since 2.1 is quite a bit harder to master. FD does still work along with vanish... you just have to make sure you dont res yourself whilst you have the buff.

Mind flay does seem to slow him down negligably.

The biggest change is around agro management.

The key is to not do ANY dps until the 2nd red riding hood is called. In this respect the tank will get enough agro to be returned to. Keep in mind that this will mean that the tank will be the first person to be red. KTM seemed to be a bit off for this fight so best to remain 10% below the tank in agro and you will be fine.

Kommentar von doombringer

FYI, Piercing Howl does NOT work. Likely this is as of the last patch. If you're watching a video or reading advice on this fight and they suggest Piercing Howl to slow the wolf, it does not work.

Kommentar von Kathucka

One piece of advice to add:

When the wolf is chasing Little Red Riding Hood ("Run away, little girl!"), your tank will not get hit, so he will not get much rage, so he will not be able to build as much threat as usual. Also, the wolf will run away from your tank, again reducing the amount of threat and rage he can generate.

Therefore, get a threat meter and watch it carefully. You must not go over the tank's threat at any time. If you do, the wolf will attack you instead of the tank after he stops chasing Little Red Riding Hood ("Mmmmm. Delicious!")

Kommentar von 55743

Our guild just did The Big Bad Wolf and its a lot of fun
we noted a couple of key points after a couple of wipes
1) do not dps heavy at the start of the event give tank time
2) maintain steady dps throughout the fight with no spikes just a constant steady of damage this way the wolf constantly chases little red riding hood around and when he stops chasing her the tank intervenes and picks up agro easily
3) at the last 5-7% blow the crap out of him and there u go 1 dead Big Bad Wolf
Lots a fun but all must concentrate keep whom ever is red riding hood alive thru out and steady dps and this is a pushover

Kommentar von Grimtongue

This event is a cakewalk if your raid is remotely competent.

Tank tanks BBW directly across from the stage entrance.

Map:
oooooooooo
oooooooooo
oMoooooooo
oBMoooooCo
XooooooCoE

X = tank
B= Big Bad Wolf
M = Melee
C = Caster
E = Entrance

Players who get the RRH debuff need to turn and start running immediately. If you start running ASAP and do not stop he will not catch you as long as you run around the outer edge. Our group lost 2 DPS to the RRH debuff but still managed to kill him in just over four minutes. It was our first time doing the event also.

Kommentar von 82888

Anyone ever tried to pop their PVP trinket to see if that gets you out of the Red Riding Hood debuff?

Kommentar von 82888

Or how about Rogue's Cloak of Shadows? Anyone tried that to get out of it? Much faster cooldown than vanish, which I know works.

Kommentar von 87627

When you get the debuff "little red riding hood" you must run around in the room as close to the walls as possible and not let the big bad wolf get you. If you are a hunter aspect of the cheetah helps alot. Use all the protection you can get and all speed enhancing effetcs since if he gets to you, you will certainly die.

Kommentar von Brmonkey

Since patch 2.2, there is absolutely no way to get out of being little red riding hood, if you become LRRH then don't waste your time and simply run.

Trinkets, cloak, FD, BoP, bubble, nothing will get you out.

Kommentar von Kathucka

Note that the Wolf does not attack Red instantly. He first targets a victim and casts the Little Red Riding Hood debuff. Then, he goes back to the tank momentarily while he casts "Picnic Basket Smell" on himself. After that, he chases after Red.

All this means that Red has a moment to turn and run, and healers have a chance to bubble, HoT, etc., and warriors have a chance to Intervene.

Kommentar von Arthredemis

slight problem with this fight, when my guild group was attacking him, the tank was switched to little red,we wiped 2 times because of the tank being targeted, but we downed him the 3rd time by haveing two people tank and hold up agro. be weary i think there are some bugs with the current patch.

Kommentar von 80642

Tip for tree druids: If you get the LRRH debuff, take yourself out of tree form. The speed debuff from the tree form completely negates the speed buff you get from the hood. This makes you an easy target for the wolf to get.

My raid on kara last night wiped 2 times after i got the debuff and bit the dust. 3rd time I got it, shifted out of tree form, I survived and we took him down.

Kommentar von TaliaMokani

While it's absolutely (and obviously) true that you don't want the Wolf to catch you while you're LRRH, it's also important not to run too far away. If you get too far ahead, he'll just cut across the middle of the stage and cut you off. This is especially true coming around the corners. You want to keep him far enough away that he won't hit you, but close enough that he stays following directly behind you and doesn't cut corners.

Kommentar von 125904

Why smell like a picnic basket when you can have Lil' Red in da Hood for supper!

Kommentar von 127328

The main killer for this fight is not Riding Hoods dying everywhere, it's DPS not comprehending the fact that the tank can't really build threat at melee range with the wolf running around all over the place at twice his own speed.

For the love of...well, yourselves: watch your threat. Particularly if the first Riding Hood is the tank.

Kommentar von 133778

"and warriors have a chance to Intervene." You know paladins can tank too >_>

Kommentar von smdante

Clarification- nothing will get you out of the little red riding hood debuff, as Brmonkey said quite some time ago, but Feign Death and Vanish will cause The Big Bad Wolf to cease aggroing you and continue to attack the tank.

If you remove feign death or vanish, however, you'll likely have to start running again.

Kommentar von 43552

Fun Fact : Highest lvl worgen in the game.

Kommentar von 61262

Though nothing will "get you out of" red riding hood-mode, you can use a bubble to negate damage. As a Holy Pally, I use Blessing of Protection on our secondary healer (a shaman) should he be targeted or Divine Shield on myself if I'm targeted.

We usually also always have a Pally Tank who can Blessing of Protection anyone you gets targeted and is of low health/bad kiting angle.

Granted we've never had a priest targeted (go figure, haha), and I don't know if their shield will work while they're targeted.

Kommentar von Thottbot

if ure planning this fight a real good thing to get / make sure someone has for each grp is a drum of speed, + 15% boost to all party members for 15 sec is a real nice buff to use on this fight, that way u can help someone out if they lack / ran out of speed pots and such, the pattern is a hard drop tho, so make sure if u get one u should give to a LW in the guild, it really helps on this fight and more (pvp included)

Kommentar von Thottbot

...Originally, a single hunter took out the big bad wolf, at grandma's house... Then Blizz nerfed hunters... Now it must be done in groups...

Kommentar von Thottbot

When you first enter the event, you talk the the Grandmother. After clicking "My, what large mouth you have." (or something to that effect, he announces, "The better to own you with!"

When he turns someone into little red riding hood he also yells, "Run away, little girl!"

Kommentar von Thottbot

seems to be a hunter item dropper, cant wait for sniper:)

Kommentar von Thottbot

we just did it today, after 4 wipes, we got a fury warrior, and with piercing howl, it was easy like hell.

we did this first night without mage or druid, it gotta be the easyest boss in Kara.

feign death is the key (to negate red riding hood)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Everyone tell with what classes and such they downed; But can't someone tell exactly what it does?

I've heard someone get to little red riding hood, then the wolf chase them and you heal red riding hood and kill wolf.

But seems too easy, innit? Increased speed, something? : /

Kommentar von Thottbot

It's a very easy fight. BBW turns a random party member into Little Red Riding Hood. BBW goes after the player who's LRRH and will kill her in one hit if caught. Whoever is LRRH gets a speed buff. LRRH lasts for like 20-30 seconds and the player turns back. He does a fear as well. After the 20-30 secs of LRRH, you have approx 10 secs before he does it again. If you have DBM, there're timers for all of these things. He doesn't have a lot of HP, so if some DPS classes die when they're LRRH, it's not a huge deal. We did this event last night. We were a bit rusty since this is the first time we had it in months...we lost our MT, a healer, and a DPS class and we still killed him with relative ease.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Would it be possible for him to drop Wolfslayer and Beastmaw Pauldrons on the same run?

Kommentar von Thottbot

This guy's actually fairly easy once you get the hang of him.

Start off by tanking him in a corner. Having more ranged DPS than melee helps here, but is by no means necessary. The rest of the raid should stand on the opposite side of the stage (except for melee).

He'll AOE fear anyone near him, and usually will go after someone else if the tank doesn't resist it.

Eventually, he'll put Little Red Riding Hood on a person, reducing their resistance and armor to 0. He'll immediately aggro onto that person and chase them around, though they gain a 50% speed buff while this happens.

This is where tanking him in a corner comes into play. If he aggros a healer or ranged DPS, he has to walk across the entire stage to them and this gives you an extra second or two to react. Run in a square around the edge of the stage, but don't run into the walls. You should be able to stay pretty much ahead of him and kite him until the debuff wears off, after which he returns to the target with the highest threat.

From my observations, a druid main tank works really well on this boss. In the time he's away from the tank chasing someone, it's hard to get hits in on him as a tank, and not hitting a warrior means they have little rage during the LRRH debuffs. With their massive threat generation, druids seem to have a better time holding aggro through the LRRH so that your DPS and healers are at minimal risk.

Unless your tank dies, and a well-geared one shouldn't because he doesn't hit that hard, you only need a single tank.

Kommentar von Thottbot

I think it's real good for Rogue's(Not Sub).

Kommentar von Thottbot

This fight is very.... very funny. My raid wiped the first time because we were too busy laughing at the little girl than fighting the wolf.

Needless to say, this worked for us when we respected the fight:

1) Tank wolf in middle of room towards back left corner

2) Have ranged DPS and healers in front left corner

3) Tank and spank

4) Shout out who gets wolf (to make them aware of it if they do not notice being turned into a little bitty girl)

5) Run around the stage counter clockwise. Dmg-misdirecting moves work really well here just in case you suck at running or lag or something.

6) Tank and spank

A dps'er or two can die in this fight and still win, so don't fret if you lose one or two ppl.

All in all, it's a pretty fun and quick fight.

EDIT: Make sure that your group doesn't spread out. Only the little girl tank +melee DPS should be away from the group corner. When you lose agro, get back to that corner. It's hard to see what's happening when everyone is spreado out.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just wondering if anyone knows whether or not a Warlock's Curse of Exhaustion works on him? Or for that matter, Hunter's Wing Clip, Mage's Slow, Warrior's Hamstring etc. etc.

It seems that it would make this encounter much much much easier.

Kommentar von Thottbot

My favourite Opera Boss. I just LOVE to run around with the red hood and spam /train to annoy my raid :-)))

done kara only 1 time so far xD, he looks fun to me :p, last time i had romeo and julliet...boring, just their voices are fun :P....tomorrow another chance with my second run :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

DANG Anonymous must have been everywhere because everytime I look at a screeen shot of any item its from him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

if a rogue gets the 'red hood' you can vanish and the wolf wont run after you anymore.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Bah. He's just a wolf. He should go get tamed by some hunter. He can't be that hard, right? I mean, the original story had one silly little hunter 1-shot him...

Kommentar von Thottbot

my guild killed him yesterday, it was a really sloppy job, but we got it done. had like 3 ppl left at the end.

the dps just needs to be quick, and this fight is pretty easy. when you turn into red riding hood run away!

if a hunter gets red riding hood just fd and its a tank n spank for 13 seconds.

hes somewhat like supremus's stage 2 ( his glare stage ) in which he chooses someones and that person has to run like heck.

if yer not a hunter and you get little red riding hood, just run around the stage.

we finished him off and he dropped little red riding hoods cape, and some druid leggings.

Kommentar von Thottbot

we did this last week (not sure on classes)

Heres how we did it:

1. The tank started the event and pulled the BBW into one corner, while the rest of us stood in the corner
2. We waited till he casted his first LRRH, The started Dpsing him down
3. Run speed on boots helps in this fight, or Rocket boots, or Sprint/dash if you're a rogue/druid
4. When/if he LRRH's you, Start running around the Outside of arena, Sticking to the walls
5. What we found useful was, if timed correctly you can get him cought on the house cutout for a couple of seconds, giving you an advantage
6. Pretty much a tank and spank otherwise : |

GL with the fight

Kommentar von Thottbot

We got the big bad wolf today, and wiped 3 times before downing him because he (right off the bat) turned the tank into the red riding hood and almost immediately killed him...

...imo, he really shouldn't be able to do that, but whatev.

Kommentar von Thottbot

What if the tank become the RRH? :|

Kommentar von Thottbot

fun boss to fight against... since im a rogue i just sprinted and he never got close to hitting me... i figured sprint over vanish because then hes not doing any dps to anyone

Kommentar von Thottbot

Does anyone know if iceblock, BoP, or Divine shield remove the LRRH debuff?

Kommentar von Thottbot

omg we done him with 2 healers druid shaman
1 off healer spriest
and 1 tank,
druid lock and warr where alive when we killed xD

Kommentar von Thottbot

How do you get to do Big Bad Wolf?

I've done Kara 3 times and I always get the Romeo and Juliet play

Kommentar von Thottbot

What do you do if the tank gets to be the girl? just stop dps? cause he's immune to taunt like all bosses, and while running, none of the tanks get to gain aggro while all the ranged dps do. We have a paladin and warrior as tanks... any suggestions on that?

Kommentar von Thottbot

going to kill him whit guild tomorrow, so i'm hoping for "eternium greathelm" i'm a protection warrior.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Devils Nightmare killed him for a server first on 5th Feb '07.

Pretty simple fight, just keep the group together on the opposite side from where he is tanked, when someone is transmormed, shield them and keep them healed while they run. We had our MT transformed 3 times, just keep healing and shielding where you can and this fight isn't hard at all.

First Loot was:
Wolfslayer Sniper Rifle
Libram of Souls Redeemed

The most enjoyable part of this encounter is when you get turned into Little Red Riding Hood and have to go screaming round the stage trying to avoid him. When he does that, you become ultra-vulnerable, but also ultra-fast.

Full guide here:The Big Bad Wolf Strategy Guide

Kommentar von Allakhazam

(A)I have an Arcane Mage, and found that slow does work on him. It's not the full 50% movement speed reduction, but it's enough to make this fight cake.
(B)There is no cake. When I'm tanking this boss he has a habit of turning me into Little Red, then imediatly fearing me. It sucks when he does this, so make sure your priests or shammies are on the ball and keep a fear ward and tremor totems up on the tank.
(C)And finally, it should be noted that he does not in fact chase Little Red. He actually chases a point about 10 yards in front of her. So make sharp turns as he will try and cut you off.

Hope this helps some

Kommentar von Allakhazam

It's a very simple fight. You tank him in the corner near the house. The group stands right outside the door on the same side of the tank near the audience.

Every few seconds he will turn someone into red riding hood. This transformation makes him fixated on you much like buru, gives you a 50% run speed increase, and reduces your armor to zero. You have to run in an oval fashion away from him for 20seconds. Healers will try to keep the runner topped off in case they get hit.

After 20 seconds the person looses the red riding hood buff and his aggro is wiped. He is tauntable at this point, but the tank has to be quick to pick him up and move him back to the corner.

He also has an aoe fear, so it's important to keep him away from the raid.

Vendetta mod works perfectly for the timers go to curse if you need it.

got him on 2nd attempt, 1st attempt was nuts seeing as we were told we'd fight ppl from the wizard of oz. Didn't know about romeo n juliet, or this guy. He's really easy, srsly.

Dropped the gun, and a goofie looking plate tanking helm that hasn't been added to the loot table yet.
