It used to be common to see people LFG for this... it'd get raided at least once a week, now it's slightly less common... and there's currently a bug that won't let me search for it with the new tool even though I have the quest.

Kommentar von 49346

Hes At cordes 27.0 74.0 and you well need a big group for him at least 2 groups for 5 68 or higher to beat him..

Kommentar von 50808

We did it last night, It was really hard but fun, its a good thing the grave yard is close. We had 9 ppl and 5 of them were 70's. We will be trying to get a raid together to do it again today!!

Kommentar von 49508

This quest pissd me off alot and the killing the Banshee Champion is a pain in the ass if u dont have a healer, healthstone, potion, and a tank. so dont be freaked tat u die once fighting him. my group died like 3-5 times fighting him and it pay's to get the item and either use them or sell them for some good cash

Since the latest patch, this quest now rewards 14,300 experience and 500 rep with Stormwind

Is it still a Raid quest now, or can it be done solo?
I have this quest in my log for ages now, never found anyone to raid it up with.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, just tried this as a lvl 67 protection warrior. Easily got myself killed very fast.
He still spawns the legion of skeletons that will simply overwhelm you.

Pretty weird that you can actually solo a raid quest where the target is marked as a Skull, but can not solo a raid quest where the target is simply level 62.
Fair to say that you still need a big party to get this quest done. Worth the trouble? If you have TBC, nope, not at all. :}

Kommentar von 92167

In December 2006 one poster noted that it is "slightly less common" to find a raid for this than it used to be. Well, one year into TBC, I can tell you, forget about it. Unless you have a guild at your beck and call, it isn't happening. You can spam "LFG Nathanos Blightcaller" all day long. All you will hear is crickets.

It's really too bad that by "adding content" via an expansion, Blizzard ends up de facto "removing content" because no one bothers with the old difficult quests anymore, unless they can be soloed.

i did it today as a lvl 56 pala. 1st i got help by a lvl 61 and 60 charracters. then on of them invited 1 70 character. then we didnt do it. then another 70 came and we still didnt make it... then 3 more 70 came and we barely made it... so u need many people to do that one... aftervards we went to sthratholme and did it in record time and i got plenty with great stuff! so i was very lucky tonight

Kommentar von pangeltveit

and if u are his target, he can blast you with 1,5k every 1 minutes

Kommentar von 64664

Tried this some time ago in patch 2.3 with my level 68 protection warrior. Could run away just in time before i got killed by him and his spawns.
So yea, it is still a Raid quest. Sweet rewards as shown in the quest log, though ofcourse useless after the first few quests in the Outlands.

Kommentar von 108320

NOTE: 1 hunter MM i belive 70 1 paladin holy/prot and 1 hunter 57 MM took him out ... paladin tanked the skelly's and dog's while both hunter's layed on the dps = 1 dead old world raid boss trio'ed! also note both 70's are kara geared and the 57 is semi twinkey

Kommentar von psyberdemon

we just downed him today. It took about 25 minutes to collect enough help.
70 Fire mage, 70 warrior, 70 holy paladin, 70 enhancement shaman. wiped once.

These hard quests are some of the heart of the storyline. Its sad to see people ignoring it just to slave their lives away doing dailies to fly at taxi speed. Pathetic IMO.

Kommentar von 138638

what!! quote"it's sad to see people ignoring it just to slave their lives away doing dailies to fly at taxi speed" unquote that is where you are wrong that gryphon/wyrim are important to warcraft history and there are bigger impacts on warcraft hitory now look at kael'thas illidan etc

Kommentar von 139584

had 5 70s with me. and a 68. did this while i was 58. easy as cake. :]

Kommentar von Ulukai

First off coords are 26'74 in the Eastern Plague Lands, for those without coords its directly north of the Undercroft and south west of the Fungal Vale.

Reward was 14300xp and 1k Argent Dawn Rep which makes it worthwhile, the only problem is getting a group, if your in a good friendly helpful guild you should manage.

Secondly i can't stress this enough, healing makes absolutely no difference on him summoning skeletons, i don't know we're this rumor started or it could be that it was a factor in the first few months of wow being released.
If you don't believe me ride by and aggro him then look round and you'll see him spawn skeles, he spawns them every 8 seconds or so.

And if your interested in how we did this, was me healing 62 shammy (ele spec), 70 palla tank, 1 mage 1 rogue and a boomkin all 70 and a 60 boomkin, 70s we're mostly in blue with the odd pvp epic.
Nathanos went down in around a minute, followed by his dogs, mage decided to tank one of the blighthounds -.- but even then i only had to throw the odd healing wave on him, the pally who was mostly in blues didn't even need healing, the battle took about 2min.

We had no interference from the horde, it was around 9pm but we don't have a massive horde pop on turalyon, and i would think a decent player could solo him at 70 with some work.

For a level 55/60 Group i'd advise 10 to 15 people.

Kommentar von 18504

Doable in 2 ppl, for example war+priest lv 70.

Kommentar von 166994

did this with 7 people, 3 lvl 70's, and im a 57 rogue :P whiped about 8 times but did it in the end :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

This questline starts in Stormwind City.
STEP 1: 62 The First and the Last (Highlord Bolvar Fordragon: SC)
STEP 2: 62 Honor the Dead (Mathias Shaw: SC)
STEP 3: 62 Flint Shadowmore (Flint Shadowmore, WP)
STEP 4: 62 The Eastern Plagues (Flint Shadowmore, WP)
STEP 5: 62 The Blightcaller Cometh (Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, SC)
STEP 6: 62 Order Must Be Restored (Highlord Bolvar Fordragon, SC)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Flint Shadowmore of SI:7 stands in front of the ruined cabin in Chillwind Point, the Western Plaguelands. He gives the quest "The Eastern Plagues," which is the continuation of the Blightcaller quest chain. If Highlord Bolvar or Mathias don't give any quests, perhaps you're on the Flint Shadowmore step.

Kommentar von Thottbot

200 rep at lvl 60

Kommentar von Thottbot

A couple days after 1.9 and we did this with 15 people and NOONE GOT CREDIT! We pulled the dogs w/o aggroing him and killed them then tried to kill him and wiped once and killed him the second time. A couple ppl died but most survived and noone got credit - please tell me this is a bug.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did this one easily with 20 of us. We were planning on doing it with 15, but lots of people was interested in getting this quest off their log, hehe.

We sent several tanks on each of the hounds and most spellcasters (plus some tanks of course) was on Nathanos. When he summoned his little skeleton-friends it was all about AoE-spells. Only a few of us died.

http://myspace-115.vo.llnwd.net/00412/51/17/412937115_l.jpg
Sorry about poor quality on the pic, but at least it's something ;)

If this will work or not depends a lot on the groups (Well, most quests do). As I could do this one on the first try with 20 of us, a friend of mine died 3 times with the same number of people before he finally could complete it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

My guild scheduled this last week as a nightly event along with the Battle of Darrowshire.
We did both with 12-15 people, no problem, it took about an hour total, and cleared out a lot of people's quest logs (not to mention getting my Druid alt to 58). Definitely true that on a PvP server, you only get one shot at it, so you may as well drop Nathanos as fast as possible after you start hitting him, and just not worry about actually killing his adds (just off-tank them). That way if any Horde do decide to show up and wipe out your raid group, at least you got the quest done first.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Its not 59 anymore. Im a 58 NE Hunter on Shattered Hand and I just got the quest!

Kommentar von Thottbot

you have to be lvl 56 to get the chain. to know when you got it go to the center of SW trade dis and a guard will call out your name and tells you to head to the keep

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok this guy is really fun! Well i thought so...this is a 20 MAN RAID...get mostly dps you know why? BECAUSE IF YOU HEAL HE WILL SPAWN SKELETONS! (yes even vampiric embrace is healing, i found that out the hard way) DO NOT HEAL IN ANY FORM OR FASHION...just wanted to make that clear...also AOE will not work on him or if he spawns the skeletons it will not work on them...this is farily simple if there are no horde around...we had one but i killed him in time enough to get to the blightcaller himself...just letting you guys know

edit: err if people die...tell them not to release and wait for a rez for the priest or pally

Kommentar von Thottbot

As some people have noted, the only hard part about this is finding 15 or more people who want or need to kill BlightCaller and are patient enough to stick around until a decent raid group can be formed.

We completed it ther other night on the Garona Server by PUG. 25 minutes to create the raid group; less than 1 minute to kill BlightCaller.

Our strat:

2 pets on one dog
1 off tank on other dog
tank on BlightCaller
All DPS on BlightCaller
No heals (no bandage, no pots, no healing spells)

BlightCaller died quickly, but someone drank a potion and summoned the skels, which wiped us out. We ran back from the cem and finished off the skels. From start to finish, 5 minutes tops.

This raid is a lot of fun, once you get a raid group together.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just killed him today with 11 people on "Hakkar"
Group consisted of 2 Rogues, 3 mages, 1 warrior, 2 priests 1 warlock, 1 druid and 1 paladin (me).

First couple of tries we used absolutely no healing of any kind but the skeletons came no matter what, so we decided to kill him with full dps and healing.
Paladin (me) ran with the hounds, just before dying used shield, the hounds ran back, and when the shield weared out, the hounds and all the skeletons returned faithfully to me or rather chasing me that is. In the meanwhile the 10 others used full DPS on Nathanos, he died, quest fulfilled, and then wipe...

Conclusion, healing or no healing, the skeletons will appear, so just kill him.... Good luck

Kommentar von Thottbot

did this with 11 people:

4 warlocks(57, 58, 60, 60)
3 rogues (60, 60, 60)
1 Warrior (59)
1 priest (60)
1 mage (60)
1 hunter (60)

died the first attempt becuase there were too many skeletons. second time was pretty easy less healing. we managed to kill him but the skeletons finished us off. doesn't matter though just as long as you kill him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Our guild has done it a few times. It appears that it doesnt matter wether you heal or not, the skeletons are going to spawn like mad. The only problem with healing, is it draws all the skeletons to your healer and they zerg him/her hard.

You cannot AOE the skeletons, they wont take any damage.

The 2 demon dogs are immune to everything. Polymorph, sleep, enslavement, etc.

The best plan is to have 2 ppl offtank the dogs, and everyone zerg the Blightcaller as fast as possible. When he is dead, the skeletons will stop spawning.

The skeletons have very little health, but they must be taken care of one at a time.

We do that exact plan everytime now and we never wipe, although a few ppl will die now and then.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Done this a million times, dont know why some have had problems with it at all, just everyone all out nuke blighty.

Did it a couple days ago and everyone underlined to not heal and I mean nothing that regenerates your health, no heals, healthstones, health potions, vampiric embrace, drain life etc etc. And sure enough I could see no skellies, blighty went down quickly, so did the dogs, around 2-3 deaths.

A shammy turned up to watch, but did not interfere at all, just /cheered at us and /mourned blighty.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did this today with 16 level 60 guild members. Sent 1 tank, and split all pets between the 2 dogs. Everyone else nuked the hell out of Blightcaller. Of course, despite the many many warnrings, some health was regened somewhere and the skeletons spawn.

Still though, everyone hit Blightcaller hard and he went down very easily. There were a few deaths but nothing crazy. I didn't die. In fact, I don't even recall getting hit until AFTER Blightcaller was already dead. (Then, I was able to feign death and walk away unscathed).

Really, this is very easy. Can definitely be done with a 15 man PUG.

There was a Tauren druid who stood by and watched the whole time but didn't interfere.

Kommentar von Thottbot

All,

We did this tonight. 14-18 of us wiped several times, but finally made it. 3 things for success:

1. Do _not_ gather at the scene before the attempt. Your presence during the 5-25 minutes before the raid is gathered/full/ready will draw the attention from visiting hordes. They will stick around, which is bad. Gather somewhere else and move in group when ready.

2. The two hounds, without the boss, can be pulled and killed from their standard position. A hunter pulled from one of the eastern hills. They offer a good fight, but without any problems. The boss will then be alone for a few minutes before they respawn.

3. The boss fears the closest people some 2-3 times during the fight. At that point, a warrior tank should be _outside_ of that ~10 yards radius and bloodlust->intercept->def stance->taunt to save the poor cloth beares from a bad beating.

Yes, skeletons spawns. I really do not know if it was due to healing. They are immune to warriors fears - that's all i know.

Good luck!

Pluggen, prot warrior, Deathwing

Kommentar von Thottbot

Our guild did it with 15 people. Nobody healed or used any healing related spells/seals and the Skeletons still appeared. With 10-12 people you probably need use some strategy - but with 14+ the best thing to do is just attack Blightcaller with everything you have - he will die and complete the quest.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Nice comment Bladester, unfortunately it has very little to do with this chain.

Another option which I haven't seen mentioned yet, which has worked very well for me and my guild, is to simply kite the dogs. That'll take a hunter on each dog, the rest can all happily dps the hell out of Blightcaller. You could even just decide to heal anyway and simply take the skellies on the chin, as Blighty will go down so fast you will have more than enough health/mana left to take care of the dogs pronto and the skellies no probs. Worked for me several times. Laugh, pick up loot, hand in quest, get reward. Cake.

If you have a cpl of guildies who have anywhere near T1 items, esp. if they are tanks and/or mages, you can do this with SIGNIFCANTLY fewer players, cutting down on your spamming time for LFGs.

Kommentar von Thottbot

soloed as a 70 warlock.. seemed too obvious but I just stood on the roof. MY drain life and siphon life healed the damage he did from his bow. He seemed to reset every 10-15 seconds, but if you land a spell quickly his health doesn't reset. His damn skeletons couldn't reach me.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Did it with 5 players, a lvl 70 warrior, a Lvl 70 Paladin, A lvl 70 Shaman and me (as a lvl 57 paladin)
We died once because of the healer getting agro of the adds.
2nd time the tank used consecration and everything went fine..

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just did this quest with a 70 warlock and I'm a 70 shadow priest - just the two of us. What we did is went up on the roof of the house that Nathanos is standing near and targeted only him. The dogs couldn't get up on the roof so he was easy to take down.

For any group - get on the roof of the house and then you don't have to worry about all the add-ons.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just did this with a 70 feral druid & and 58 BM hunter.
Just stood on the roof and the hunter just shot at him and I (the druid) healed him, cake.

PS the dogs did for some reason get to the roof so we had to kill them when they came, but after they were dead killing him was np. DS

Kommentar von Thottbot

Soloed - lvl 70 MM Hunter.

At first I tried doing it the hard(-er) way.

- The dogs are linked. So there's no killing them seperately.
- He makes skele which I tried to snake. Didnt really work

Got him to about 50% though pew pewage
----------------------------------------------------

I'm in T5/BT Hyjal gear but PVP gear would probably work just as well.

As you face him from the ground, the way up onto the roof is from the rear right mound. Mount up jump into the roof (jumping early).

Set aspect of the monkey.
Then place your pet in a place where he will definately be able to shoot him.

Hunters mark ofc.

MD Pull onto pet with everything u got.

Pop rapid fire and any ofhter stuff u got.

Then when you overtake your pet on threat keep scorpid sting up on him - this is key.

During the fight I needed to pop a healing potion.
Then when you get down to 10% of your mana pop aspect of the viper and use steady, auto

And bingo - one dead undead cretin.

One thing I didn't try was feign death.
If I my pet has already got agro and can be shot by the Blightcaller then FD will probably work possibly even allowing you to bandager - ooooooo.

Anyway I can now replace my old crappy Legionkiller with a shiny new Gorewood Bow - oooooooo

The other thing is - if you're trying to use steady shot to do most of your damage you will prolly fail, he will just hit you and you'll take forever to get 1 shot off.

Arcane & Multi whenever you can, re-apply the hunters mk halfway through and keep scorpid up on him.

Use scrolls.

Even in half decent PvE gear it was a close fight - I had about 5% health left. - A kewl challenge Bliz - please don't nerf this - it's perfect as it is. I died several times discovering all of these tweaks.

Kommentar von Thottbot

LoL. This quest is pitifully easy. Me (63 Warlock) a 70 Hunter and a 70 Pally did it. Just jump your mounts to the rooftop (if a Warlock on a standard mount can do it then ANYONE can) and nuke the heck outta Nathanos. The 2 or 3 dozen sleletons he conjured will die with him. When that's done nuke the dogs. The Hunter didn't use his bear and I didn't use my felguard. His dogs and skeletons can't reach you and if you're near death just get outa his LOS and heal up. I got 14,300 XP.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ok...Here I offer a very useful tartic.

just need a healer, a ranger attacker then the job can be done easily.

Jump over and stand at the top of the roof of the house behind the boss.
then careful move the range attacker(s) to the right-top corner of the roof and start the attack.

At this point only boss will "duel" with the range attack(s). Healers just need to heal. That's all the pets -- dogs are just watching thier master die. haha

I complete this with a paladin, and a warlord only. all lvl 62.
(Don't face him in front or you will feel the pains.)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just did this quest and its awesome got 14.3k xp and the gorewood bow. definitly worth doing if you can get a grp together had 4 70's and did fine. Sandinbala 57 Rogue Whisperwind

Kommentar von Thottbot

Invunerable Healers;
North west of the house theres a small hill. You need a level 60 mount for this. All healer, mages and range capables Mount up and jump onto the house.

Pulling the dogs;
From the same place where the hill is, slowly walk up to the dogs, they will notice you but you won't be in Nanthono's LOS so he won't spot you. Both dogs are linked so they will follow. Beat the hell out of them then prepare for a huge assault.

For Nanthonos;
Start off with the rangers on top of the house to start belting nanth with arrows and bullets, have your pets out either on top or the ground as spiritual bond can be used.

All ground troops cannot use any healing. Their healers will heal them on top of the house. All rogues can slide around him and pelt him hard. Everyone else jump in and beat him up and well, quick death, minimal casulities. Mages and healers should always stay up top. Top three damage dealers on top should spread apart to minimize his use of the multi-shot.

Make sure he's not within 15-20 yards from the house as it's possible he can fear the people on top of the house.

And ground troops must refrain from using aoe or multiple target attacks as you may pull the skeletons.

Successfully worked. :] can work with a few aswell.

Kommentar von Thottbot

70 Prot warrior with some early TK/SSC gear on, was able to solo him all by myself fighting him like a raid would (no rooftop stuff), it took several tries and some luck as well. Fought him in my tank gear but had to use zerker stance as I will explain :)

The main problem when facing him is the fears he does every so often when he summons the skelly adds. At 70 you mostly resist them, but any fear you may encounter can easily lead to your death as for 6 seconds or so you are unable to parry, dodge, and block any of his, and especially the numerous skeletons he summons, attacks, taking off a good chunk of your health. To solve this I kept equipped my pvp trinket for any mishaps, and actually fought him in berserker stance. The one thing that greatly helped in this fight was a shield warding for 4000 dmg absorption, adding 4000 health basically. Charged in and just devastated and heroic striked away, always ready to hit berserker rage if I got feared. When he was under 20% I was able to just execute him to death because at this point he had around 100 skelly adds pelting me in the face. That part is the hardest point because any fear that you can get, even if for a second, can quickly kill you with all the skellies wailing on you with no avoidance what so ever. Basically just pray for fear resists and hack away, use Last Stand and Shield Wall as neccessary.

Haven't tested it yet but it seems like it could be easily done with a Prot paladin as solo attempt. The consecration and holy shield from the pally will quickly kill the measly adds he summons, plus shadow resist aura will help the fear resist, and the pally can bubble when need be to fully heal themselves.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Have Blizzard changed the way you can get onto the roof? It seems impossible now to get on there - been trying for over an hour >.>

how can i kill him solo im level 68 and this qst has been in my log a while i wanna just get it donew but no one is ever in the eastern plagulands (ALONSUS) anymore?
im a rogues so i could go and backstab him? but his dogs get in the way.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well I just took him down in a group of 14, with me as the only healer (5 mages, 2 rogues, 2 paladins, 2 hunters, 1 warrior, 1 warlock, 1 priest). With our DPS-heavy group, we decided to try taking down Blightcaller as fast as possible. We had the hunters pull the dogs (one dog was frozen and the other was dealt with by the pet), while everyone focused fire on Blightcaller. I tossed a total of 3 heals the entire fight...the rest of the time I was spamming my damage spells. We ignored the adds so that we could concentrate our DPS on Blightcaller. We lost about 7 or 8 by the time Blightcaller was dead, and another 4 or 5 afterwards as the dogs and skellies mauled the survivors. However two managed to come out of the fight alive.

As a side note, Blightcaller's fear cannot be dispelled so don't bother trying.

what does it mean by Level 62 if the cap is 60?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

you can solo pull the dogs off of him, which is what we did. then we just had the MT sit there and take his abuse while everyone else focused fired him. we ended up killing him with three deaths, and then everyone wiped to the skeletons, but we all got credit for the kill.

If anyone is reading this just to check out if the chain is worth doing, (Chain that begins with "The First and the Last," the answer is yes. Up to this point, (needing to put together the raid group to do "Order Must be Restored") the preceding four quests take almost no time to accomplish... just a bit of flying and running around, and give a tremendous amount of xp. I was just cleaning up a few quests in my log prior to heading over to Outland ( at level 59) and decided to complete this chain on a whim. In less than half an hour total I got 30,000 xp plus.

And like so many others just decided not to even attempt this final part of the chain.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

wuts the beginning quest of this?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've done this with large groups about 3 times now mostly because we put out the notice and a lot of guild people jumped in to help. It's nice with a very large group because hardly anyone dies and you don't have to worry about horde attacks. Doesn't bother me one bit to do it with more than we really need. It just makes it that much easier to knock it out.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did it last night og should I say we did it.
I startet to gather a group at about 16.30 and got the first group together at 17.30. We where 11 people and tried 3 times, but even though we did not heal - or people say they did'n heal, the skeletons came anyway. We got wiped 3 times.
Then half the group left. We joined forces with another group and we where then 10 people. the didn't have much time, so we tried again inly 10. We got wiped of course and skeletons came again, så I guess people don't get the koncept of NO HEALING!
Damn.. The time said 19.00 and most of the people from the group was gone again. But somehow the rest of us gathered 13 people all together and the lock summoned all to be there.
We tried again.. someone healed again.. skeletons came, I died.. One of the hounds was mad at me for some reason. but when I died Blightcaller was down to 8% and when I ressurrected, the rest had killed him off and we completed the quest! YES! The hounds he had survived, but he died so that was the main target. The time said 20.00
I guess the point is, that you can do it even though someone don't understand that they should not heal and you can do it only 13. Most people say you MUST be at least 15 or 20 to complete it. Not true at all.
And I got my nice bow from the quest, so I am a happy but tired hunter.
By the way the shield is nice for pallys but if you can't get peope together, then go to scholo and get the Rattlecage buckler in stead. My pally did. It is small and not so impressive, but the stats is even nicer I think than the protector for a pally.
My hunter have tried to get the ancient bone bow from scholo also, but no such luck.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I honestly dont think it matters what is done to him, hes gonna spawn skeletons. I went (56 human rogue) with my friend, a 70 hunter just to see what would happen, and he summoned like 10 skeletons by the time we had his health down by 10%. It was ridiculous. Good luck to anyone who has this quest in their log.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this quest with 23 people on Eonar tonight and we had 3 people die in the doing. My guess is that you can do it with about 18 without ~too~ much trouble, if you're good. The best way to do it is to gather your grou at Darrowshire, so you don't get spotted by Horde. Or if you do, they might think you're gathering for Defenders of Darrowshire and not say anything. Even on PvE servers, this is important because Blightcaller is PvP enabled. You ~can~ pull the dogs if you want and I recommend it if you have a large enough group so that you can take them down quickly. After that, just hit Blightcaller as fast and as hard as you can.

We did this w/ 16 people. Pull dogs first. If you watch, he plays fetch with them and when they run forward you can pull them. One pull went bad and he came. We focused on dog, killed it and then ran off. We came back res'ed ppl, and tried Blightcaller. The first time we tried the usual tank+heal+dps.... it did not work and we wiped. We came back, dogs still gone, and just did a nuke attack on Blightcaller. We ignored the skeletons, killed Blight then killed skeletons. There were about 7 people alive at the end. It was quite a bit of fun. I'm on a PvP server, but no horde showed up to cause problems.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this with a 5 man team...
1x 70 Hunter
1x 70 Druid (Heals)
1x 70 Warrior (Tank)
1x 60 Hunter
1x 57 Hunter

with not too much trouble, just cc'd the dogs and took down blight as fast as possible. When blight died, we only needed to take care of a few skeletons and finish off the dogs.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

The problem is that he spawns his adds as he loses HPs. All you have to do is have a group to tank him (warrior or 2 and healers) and have everyone else deal with the adds when they spawn. Every time I've been there, there just weren't enough healers. There's never enough healers, because most paladins think that they are DPS, and not healers.

Have a paladin hit Nath with JoLight at the start, and use the paladins to heal the MT(s) until the pallies go OOM, that way the priest or 2 you have don't go OOM too soon. Use Hunter pets and VWs to tank the adds. A hunter can solo an add by him self if he'll stop shooting long enough to heal his pet every now and then.

However, all too often, everyone wants to rush in and kill him too fast, and the adds build up and the raid wipes. Strategy and Tactics, learn them.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did this easy as pie with a 40 ppl group. Managed to pull the dogs alone and then we just took him down in a few secs.

ZaylaW's Tactic above worked just fine.
1 pull of just dogs with a hunter (for if it pulls him too).
Then all on him, max DPS (except priests, of course). Ignoring skellies, he died when about 1/2 of us were dead. Don't release and you get kill credit.
3 kills, in and out.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Having played a Horde and Alliance characters to 60, I must say these quests seem balanced up to the pvp factor. If Horde shows up to kill you, if your alliance, its bad. If your 5 man is hard pressed to get rid of the adds, if you're Horde, its bad. I think, personally, its harder to get 15+ people for the raid than 4 more for a group. Overall, it just depends on how subtle your group is on their way over and while waiting to kill Nathanos.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I did it with only 11 people, and we did no healing, just full dps, only 2 persons lived, me (used a SS in the middle of the fight) and a rogue, but all got the Quest completed!

killed him 30min ago, got about 18 people. Was ganking him fine initially until a tauren druid came along; priest panicked and started healing, skeles starts to churn. But we manage to kill blight and after taunting all the skele for aoe i died. Turns out the druid just wanna see the sight after all >.<

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First off I wanted to say.. Chances are if you do this as a PuG be prepared to deal with skeles.. People just do not understand what 'NO HEALING' means it seems. I did this as about a 15 man, we had tanks on the dogs since we had them to spare. And all out dps on blightcaller. Naturaly, there were people making bandages, healthstones, etc while we waited for others to arrive.. I wonder who were the ones that healed durring the fight? Hmm... Even though we made it very clear that the ONLY situation where some raid members HP should EVER go up durring this fight was if our main tank needed a heal. And even then our single best priest should hit him with their best heal.

Naturally, someone (or a few) did not listen, and healed or had healing items on etc... We ended up with about 15-20 skeles... Though the DPS were smart enough to not stray from nuking blightcaller so we still dropped him, and I feigned death after the rest of the party had already died (minus one rogue that vanished).

This should be a simple task as long as you can get your raid to understand the concept of NO healing.. not a little healing, not a lot of healing.. NO HEALING.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

and more ppl will come. done that like 10 times on different chars. U easily can have 20-25 ppl raid. after that horde has to bring at least a group to somehow influence the result = kill anyone at all. And I mean a pick up raid not a major guild raid. Even morons can't screw it up when U have 20+ ppl with 4+ healers (from personal experience: 1 moron per raid = -2 good players at least). Only requirement: group up far from spot so horde doesn't have time to build up ranks on U. Chillwind works great for that.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

did this last night with about 20 people we died first time because we did not expect all the adds we regrouped changed our strat a little and took him down no problem

spawns !@#$loads of lv 58 skeletons

Kommentar von Allakhazam

where can this blight guy be found please give coors for cosmos. ty

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So far I've read that anytime your hp goes up, he summons skeletons--other people have said he summons when he loses hp. Seriously this sounds like the thousands of explanations for Onyxia's Deep Breath attack.

I decided to see what happened when I engaged him and did nothing. I was on my mage and just rode by Blightcaller on my mount and guess what? He summoned skeletons as he was chasing me! If I didn't know any better, Nathanos summons skeletons no matter what you do! Imagine that!

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I had a very interesting attempt. it was 63 lock 66 war 66 lock 57 lock 63 priest 60 druid 52 priest(just watching). we tried about 6-7 times. the first 5 times we did it he summoned skellys. then on the 6,7th attempt we opened up a heal meter to see if anyone healed. turned out one of the warriors trinkets heals. the warrior got pissed at his armor and left. so we tried it once more. and once again the skellies came out yet the heal meter showed absolutely nobody healed or got healed in anyway. so i really dont understand the consept of "NO HEALING" anyone have tips?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I rmemeber doing this at 60 with about 20 people, didnt seem very hard tbh at the time, maybe we had a good raid leader, cant remember.

You certinaly dont need any level 70's with you tho...just people that know what to do.

Anyhows, levelling my alt, im going to ditch this quest, more xp in outlands and better rewards too. I just cant remember if this was needed to get the naxx attunement quest chain started.....

Kommentar von Allakhazam

First off coords are 26'74 in the Eastern Plague Lands, for those without coords its directly north of the Undercroft and south west of the Fungal Vale.

Reward was 14300xp and 1k Argent Dawn Rep which makes it worthwhile, the only problem is getting a group, if your in a good friendly helpful guild you should manage.

Secondly i can't stress this enough, healing makes absolutely no difference on him summoning skeletons, i don't know we're this rumor started or it could be that it was a factor in the first few months of wow being released.
If you don't believe me ride by and aggro him then look round and you'll see him spawn skeles, he spawns them every 8 seconds or so.

And if your interested in how we did this, was me healing 62 shammy (ele spec), 70 palla tank, 1 mage 1 rogue and a boomkin all 70 and a 60 boomkin, 70s we're mostly in blue with the odd pvp epic.
Nathanos went down in around a minute, followed by his dogs, mage decided to tank one of the blighthounds -.- but even then i only had to throw the odd healing wave on him, the pally who was mostly in blues didn't even need healing, the battle took about 2min.

We had no interference from the horde, it was around 9pm but we don't have a massive horde pop on tura, and i would think a decent player could solo him at 70 with some work.

This Post is patch 2.4.1

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So is a raid group required to complete this quest?

Or does it just mean that You CAN use a raid group and still receive the rewards? Please help. Thanks.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

who gives quest The First and the Last (Elite)?
Or where can i begin this Raid quest?

Edited, Wed Mar 2 23:09:49 2005

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well, yeah, we are going to defend him as Horde. He is our questgiver after all.

On a completely unrelated note, why is this a raid and the Scarlet Oracle isn't? I can understand the balance if Horde has to just go through some more elite quests versus a jump from elite to raid, but a combat-rezzing superPriest followed by 6-8 pallies ISN'T raid material?

That's my completely irrelevant rant for the day. Feel free to discuss over complimentary coffee and biscuits.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

So....nothing even *usable* by a druid?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

we had 36 (unorganised) and killed him dead

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Interesting group 4 warriors 4 pali 3 mages 1 lock 4 rogues. Very strict organization. All 60s but me (57) and one warrior (59). Pali's were instructed no healing. We were instructed no healing potions nor any other way to "move the health bar to the right". "Any healing of any kind would wipe the group". One warrior on each dog. Every one else on Blightcaller, max DPS. This was repeated at least 5 times. It all started fine. THe tanks held the dogs and blightcaller and we bled off his hit points very quickly. Then the adds went nuts and the dogs came off their tanks. We killed Blightcaller. The dogs and the skells wiped about half the group, mages, rogues, lock, and a couple of the armor wearers all died. The statement was made that one of the palis had started healing and that caused it. I can't vouch for that as the cause but I thought I'd provide the info. Maybe someone else can test the theory. Most if not all the party survived until Blightcaller died so it is possible that this info is correct.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

i did this with a PuG group of 15, only 1 epicced out person in the group, we just went all out on Blightcaller and once we finished him we ran like hell cuz we left the dogs alive, good thing for me tho is that i didnt have aggro to the dogs so i ran in the house and grabbed the blood of heroes that no1 else thought to grab =P

Kommentar von Allakhazam

At least one skelly was summoned upon aggroing Blighcaller. Did the same thing as the guy below. Rode right in on mount, turned around and took off. Turned the camera behind me and saw at least one spawned skelly.

Although it is still possible that more skellys are spawned if you do heal, or use healing 'chants/trinkets...The idea that no skellys will be summoned if you do not do these things is a complete and total fallacy.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Heres how we killed him with 15 people:

Rule Number One: NO HEALING!
People think its any spell that hits him spawns skeletons. its not. its any heal that lands on a raid member.
That includes Direct heals, Heal over times, bandages, pots, life stealing enchants, warlocks demon armor, ANY drain life spell. etc etc etc

Anytime someones health goes up during this fight, skeletons spawn, more heals = more adds. so no bloody healing!

Rule Number Two: Ignore the dogs (for now)
You dont need tanks to keep them busy, or hunters to kite them, you'll get to them before they can do any serious damage.

Rule Number Three: NUKE Nathanos!
EVERYONE, and i mean EVERYONE DPS Blightcaller as fast and hard as you can. he's only got about 40k health, and drops FAST. Trust me, 15 downed him in under 30 seconds.

And after he's dead. deal with the dogs, and whatever skeletons you have (cuz you're bound to have at least one fool who does some healing)

Honestly, if you follow these rules, very few will die (only one died on our last attempt) and you should have no more then 4 skeletons running around.

Hope this helps you out

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Don't mess around on this quest. We barely got them with a little over two groups, prob about 5 level 70s, the rest 50-60. You WILL NOT defeat him with any kind of strategy except LOTS of numbers (15+) or might get lucky with a high amount of 70s. We did it but still all wiped from the excess mobs and Horde snipers.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

lol easy quest we took him down 7 lvl 60s only thing to remember is dont use any kind of heals that goes for pots and bandages to

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Requires about 30 people to do it.

When I got mine we had 31 people, 27 died. Somehow I made it out without a scratch, that is, I killed Nathanos and ran for my life.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

a brain. now stop spamming.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Did it with 11 with mediocre equipment.
The below tactics work fine.

Pull dogs and kill them.

Attack Blightcaller and ignore skels. Healers probably die ;) So does everyone else, if you try it with a dozen people, that is :D

Doesn't matter anyway, quest will be completed and the graveyard is close.

(Just don't tell Horde you are there ;) )

Kommentar von Rhododendr0n

Killed him on Classic, we were 17, 3 tanks. It was really easy.

Kommentar von RyanPsiko

Is there a horde equivalent of this?

Kommentar von Agamemnicon

Like many aspects of this game, PVP ruins this quest. Hitting Blightcaller (or anyone in your group hitting him) will tag you, and quite likely there will be some hordies just waiting around to surprise you. We organized an entire group for this quest and just gave up because Horde was camping us.

This is something that bothers me about this game, from vanilla to the present. If I TURN OFF pvp, then I should never have to be tagged pvp while doing normal game activities like QUESTING. Don't bother with this one!

Kommentar von Bagspace

For anyone not getting credit now, you need to tag the boss to complete this. I off tanked a dog so got no credit, gm replied to my ticket to tell me that was the reason.

Kommentar von Hunt3x

Important information for this fight.

Make sure all tagg Nathanos, else they will not complete quest.

Our healers didn't tagg nathanos, didn't get quest completed.

Respawntime for Nathanos: 30 min.

Vote this up please, so people see this! will save people lots of time.

Kommentar von Utherant12

I can guarantee you, with 100% certainty, that Nathanos is not smiling down upon the Alliance right now.

Kommentar von Valkyrstudios

Nathanos was famous, but apparently not famous enough for people to know what an enthusiastic malewife he is.

Kommentar von ibehurtin

IDK what everyone is freaking out about, I did this on my Lvl 76 Warrior Tank Main with zero problems. Must be plebian 60's attempting this...

/s I took 4k dmg with 15k armor and 621 str on my Warrior Ibehurtin. Obviously this is way over leveled for the quest, but just in case someone else is way along and wants to give it a shot but is concerned by the comments like I was, it's doable. If I were a squishy I'd be very concerned though. This was a very ideal set of mobs for me to fight working off of the Revenge Proc I really just spammed Rev until everything was dead. Did a Thunder Clap and Demoralizing Shout on the group and they only downed about 4k of my total 17k throughout the fight. If I had to guess this can be solo'd as early as 70 with the right gear and rotation, comfortably by 72 or so. For reference I did about 2,200dmg during this fight as well, using a and with other various quest reward gear.
