As a note; if you're a caster, the voidshriekers put a 75% damage reduction spell on them, for the school of magic that hits them first. So, ie, if you're a shadowpriest, hit them with smite first, to give them the holy resistance debuff, otherwise they'd have a 75% shadow dmg reduction.

As a Holy Paladin, losing out on almost all of my damage would make these insanely painful. White damage alone would take forever.

So I visited the Auction House and grabbed a few stacks of Ez-Thro Dynamite 2. Works like a charm to set the resistance and then wail away with Holy damage at will.

Note to Holy Paladins:

-Fiery Weapon proc will not make them resistant to fire.
-Seal of Righteousness will not make them resistant to holy. Judging it or using Holy Shock however will

Kommentar von skyboat

Even easier for a warlock is casting Curse of Tongues to cut down on the amount of fireballs/shadowbolts they throw at you.

They also do not debuff themselves from wand damage.

Non-harmful debuffs put on them also trigger the debuff for that spell school. Be warned.

Interestingly, enslaving them with the different debuffs seems to depict what spells are available on the pet bar at the time you enslave. With no debuff, they keep Shadowbolt, and whilst there is no Fear ability on the pet bar, they DO occasionally fear the mob you send them to attack.

do these share spawns with other types in there? I mean to grind for 15 shadow resist enchant.
Just wondering if i should kill everything there or can i just pick these?

Kommentar von wowzer

One thing I noticed about voidShriekers (besides the fact that they resist whatever you hit em' with first) is that they would always hit me back with the same school of magic. If I threw frost, it hit back with the same, if I threw fire, it returned fire. Dunno if it is different for other classes. My strategy was to pop ice lance, then my frost ward - then whale away with the fire damage. Unbelievably easy.

Tried to use Oil of Immolation on these yet it did not give the debuff.

I also tried to use my Six Demon Bag to debuff them. I hit them with a 1500 fireball crit from the bag yet it did not give them the fire debuff.

It seems the easiest way for a holy pally to kill these is just use SoR and do not judge/shock or exorcise until the very end (it seems their debuff takes a moment to take effect so you can hit them with two quick instants for the full damage).

Kommentar von Aggressor

As an ele shaman, I find the best way is to open up with fireshock and burn with LB. They are a really PITA and do about 500-600 damage a pop. This quest blows. If I didnt need the money for my epic flyer I would just abandon it. And dont use ice, that is the worst.

If you´re a holy priest with a decent amount of spelldamage (813 here with Imp Spi), they´re actually rather easy to farm: I usually open up with a Holy Fire (sets them immune to holy, but that doesn´t really matter), followed by a SW:P and a Mind Blast, then shield and wand him down. That way you eat a max of 2 Holy Bolts, even less if you´re lucky. Also very mana efficient in my experience.

On another note: If you´re NE, you can also open up with Starshards, which puts the immunity to arcane (use Rank 1 for mana efficiency).

Be sure to pick up the quest Recipe for Destruction, before you start farming for the Formula: Enchant Cloak - Greater Shadow Resistance. I actually picked up the formula before I finished the quest. I got the formula after 25 kills. Not too bad.

I farmed this as a shadow priest. I opened up with Holy Fire, because it requires less mana than a Smite. Didn't bother going back into Shadowform, since that's just a waste of 900 mana when you're farming these one after another and having to switch out for the holy damage anyway.

Kommentar von 115162

best method for a frost mage:
pop ice barrier and fire ward
throw a fireball and than finish off with frostbolts
each fireward should give you at least 2 kills

Kommentar von Shalkar

Dropped on the 96th kill for me. Other general info (a sum-up)
- They share spawn-points with Unstable Voidwraiths so kill'em all
- They have a better mote of shadow drop-rate than the Voidwraiths (45%ish vs. 30%ish)
- They have less HP than Voidwraiths (4Kish vs. 6Kish)
- Best cycle for an Affliction Warlock I found was: Searing pain, Siphon Life, Corruption, (Unstable affliction too if you have less than 1100 shadow damage)

Kommentar von Aircraft

If you're a priest and grinding out some gold shadow, use mass dispel to make them holy resistant while in shadowform.

Kommentar von Atraira

Thunderfury's proc doesn't trigger nature resist.

booooooooo, I was kinda counting on that since I'm a Pally.

Kommentar von Fyurae

For a hunter, I would imagine that even at level (I am 70 now) these wouldn't be much of a hassle. But I would recommend opening with an arcane shot so that your serpent sting is still viable. The sting ticks off more damage than arcane shot, and with the long cooldown time on arcane shot, you probably wouldn't get a second one in anyway.

Also, they respawn very quickly and they can knock you out of the air. So dont go AFK after clearing a spawn area like I did.

I know a lot of Holy Paladins have had trouble farming Voidshriekers, so I figured I'd share my rotation.
Keep in mind I'm at about 850 spelldamage, just wearing my normal healing gear.
With SoR up, melee until he casts 2 shadowbolts, then HoJ halfway through the third Shadowbolt. Shock+Judge+Exorcise, should put him under 15% life. Hammer of Wrath.
Since HoJ is on 60 second cooldown, Blood Elf Paladins can replace HoJ with Mana Tap every other time, and do the same cycle.
This is the fastest most effective way I've found to kill them.

Kommentar von 143142

Retribution paladins: Seal of Command is classed as holy damage, and will cause the Holy Resistance debuff. Crusader strike is classed as physical damage and will not cause or be affected by this debuff.

Kommentar von 76653

If your a BE Paladin, mana tap triggers arcane resist so you can use all the holy spells you want :P

Kommentar von Tadzulempke

As an Elemental Shaman, cast Lightning Bolt and before it reaches the NPC, cast a Frost/Flame Shock

Kommentar von 113107

Hunters - they track as Demons

Kommentar von Doomhawk

Seal of Command procs will make them holy-resistant, but Seal of Blood doesn't. Go figure.

Kommentar von 144159

As Enhancement Shaman, these mobs aren't very tough though, with descent ap and crit% they die very fast, and you don't even have to cast a single shock on them.

Kommentar von Thottbot

To all casters farming this enchant; use the type of magic you dont have many spells for, seeing that these guys become resistant to the first school of magic that you throw at them by 75%. Then, you can DPS with the primary school of magic. (they also use the same school of magic that you first throw at them against you).

Kommentar von Thottbot

for BE I recomend manatapping them to get arcane resistance and thn dpsing with the school you use. Works well for holy/shadow priests so their main school isnt locked out

Kommentar von Thottbot

As a shadow priest, I have to pop out of form to throw a Holy Fire, and then switch back and it's fine.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Enslave and ask pretty please to hand over the enchant?

Just immolate them and use shadow if affliction and corrupt them and use fire if destruction...

Kommentar von Thottbot

as a holy pally I think I'm out of luck

Kommentar von Thottbot

I read elsewhere that easythrow dynomight triggers fire resistance. Worth getting your guild engineer to pop this out. Its a couple gold's worth of mats for a stack. Definately worth the investment for a non-BE-paladin.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Warlock curses are considered shadow... so Curse of Elements, then fire spells if you're Destro like me... if you use shadow put an Immo or something on him first!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I'm a BM hunter, so i used intimidation on it. Well, while one was intimidation stunned, i hit it with both serpent sting AND arcane shot, then afterwards he did not becoMe resistant to either one. Doubt this will help anyone but i thought it was interesting.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lucky, got it on my second kill with my warlock. :D

Warlocks should probably open up with Immolate, then use their Shadow spells to burn it down while the VoidShrieker has fire resistance on.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Mu ha ha i knew i kepted Thunderbrews Boot flask for somthing it does fire damge so it counts :D

Kommentar von Thottbot

What about the Mote of Shadow droprate, guys? Does it seem any better than Nagrand around Oshu'gun?

Thanks.

Kommentar von Thottbot

If u are pala my advice is to stun him and throw all u got on him b4 he cast holy dmg reduction!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I can't be the only one who thinks this...

Looks like they're thinking Arbys.

Kommentar von Thottbot

if you're a holy paladin these are probably the worst mobs in the game to grind on see all you have is holy damage.

Kommentar von Thottbot

saw these guys for the first time yesterday and didnt know what they were

so i killed one for the first time and the formula dropped!

bit ironic, eh?

Kommentar von Thottbot

There actually is a holy resistance, if people did their homework you would know this. It doesn't show up in character screen, but it is definetly there.
Tried, tested, confirmed.

As for pallies, there are plenty of crafty methods as stated above to let your holy spells annihilate the mobs!

Kommentar von Thottbot

ok voidspawns in nagrand suck ass at dropin this killed 20 of them then gave up .....not one dam drop

Kommentar von Thottbot

They're so cute. >.< I want one, my voidwalker looks so silly.

That being said, anyone know if they share spawn points with the anorexic voidwalkers in the area?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As a Belf pally, pull with mana tap, think it Makes em 75% to arcane, then you're free to do whatever holy crap you want.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Mages: hit them with an opener from your non-spec, they instantly cast a 75% damage reduction spell of the damage type they are hit with.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

rogue ftw!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Formula: Enchant Cloak - Greater Shadow Resistance

Kommentar von Allakhazam

At least Paladins can heal themselves. Warriors get to withstand 500ish point shadow bolt spam every few seconds and a psychic scream to boot. It's a simple game of kill it before it kills you.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've seen a lot of mobs but these really take the trophy of being pain in the paladin's ass... 75% reduction to our ONLY damage school? When over 66% of our damage IS holy? When we have lowest damage in the game already?

I can only be thankful that these are not the only mobs that drop Fragments of Dimensius, otherwise the quest would be a real pain...

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I had to farm these for the pattern as a Holydin, I eventually made a pattern that helps alot.

Seal of Crusade, Avenging Wrath if it's not on CD, Hammer of Justice, Judgement of Crusade (During Global Cooldown), Consecrate, Exorcism, Holy Shock, White hit(With Crusade) the last 40%~.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

As a shadowpriest, make sure to pull with a holy spell. I use Smite because the DoT on Holy Fire is weakened by their ability. Then just DPS with shadow spells. They have really low HP, so a Mind Blast, two Mind Flays, and a Shadow Word: Death is usually all it takes.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First of all. They are NOT difficult. Its cleary obviously that you guys are n00bs.

Im an Elemental Shaman, so Nature dmg is what I do best. So these guys can do a 75% resist on any magic they get hit with. Meaning if you startof hitting them with FIRE they will cast FIRE RESISTANCE. I use FIRE/FROST shock on them, so they cast their Sheild then I pwn them with NATURE dmg.

Conclusion: Start the battle with casting something else than nature spells.

EDIT: For more fun, right before you cast, drop a resist totem :)

These are a serious, serious pain for a paladin. We can only rely on holy damage, a 75% reduction of that cripples us entirely.

Bring EZ-Thro dynamite, or something similiar, it's our only hope.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

For a paladin, the only thing you can do here is Avenging Wrath, boost yourself with some trinkets, and melee the bastards. Any seal, exorcism or stun will give them holy bolts which are insanely painful.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

yeah i hate these guys as a shadow priest. being shadow, all i can cast (in shadowform) is shadow damage spells, and i cant melle, so i gotta cast a holy spell, go in shadow, then DPS.

pain in the ass

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've been taking these guys quite easily as a Lock by doing the following, wind up with a shadow bolt, and as you get to around 1sec cast time left, intercept with the Felguard. as soon as the shadow bolt launches, cast another and it should strike the Voidshrieker for full damage before the intercept stun wears off. At this point I cast incinterate, then loot =)

Btw I have all blues, (no epics) and 760 self buffed Spell damage. So far they have been easy to farm.

Edited, Aug 4th 2007 2:10am by Paelor

Kommentar von Allakhazam

they do the 75% reduction spell on arcane shot & serpent sting too... but at least our pets are 95% melee damage.\

on the plus side,
Formel: Waffe - Zauberflut off of one of them

Kommentar von PanzersSkywall

Night Elf Shadowpriest: Open on them with Starshards!

Kommentar von Mastalock

Looking at these comments my luck must suck. I Killed 150+ today and no enchant (and that was the Voidshriekers alone)

Kommentar von Purrfected

200 kills and no formula, drop rate seems worse than 0,7%.

Kommentar von Topazmace

As a Prot Paladin who only has Holy damage, this mob is a pain to kill.

However, as a Blood Elf Prot Paladin, you can use Mana Tap/Arcane Torrent to make them take less Arcane damage so you can deal full Holy damage.

You can also HoJ stun them and nuke and they won't get their spell reduction until after the stun has ended.
