He patrols around the netherwing ledge, make sure you have your spectacles on to see him.

Kommentar von 17301

How on earth do you get to that island?

Kommentar von 5883

Will need a full group for this. At least a tank and healer. You could probably 2man it with said group, but it would take forever. Tank + Healer + 2dps would be ideal.

He hits for ~2000 on leather, and has a lot of HP.

Otherwise he's pretty easy, tank and spank. No special attacks.

It's a bit of trouble to make the pull. We stood atop a ledge and pulled with a throwing knife, then ran down to ground level and fought him. Be careful not to fall off, we had a few deaths before finally making it all work :)

Kommentar von 17526

He's easy to pull. Go up to platue (spelling??) and there is a peak that is higher than the rest. Stand there, have rest of group set up on the flat part. Pull dragon when he paths by. Jump down and let tank take him. It help if you have some slow fall then you jump down. LOL

(Parachute cloak FTW)

Kommentar von rasmg

Good place to pull is on top of the little mountain thing 69 85

and fight him on 69 84

He flys around in a big circle, could take a minute for him to pass by... good idea to have mage pull and then jump down and ice block then tank pulls aggro... once again nothing special in this fight, he hits hard so good healer is needed.

Kommentar von Artimi

He's easy to twoman.

Just did him with a mortalstrike warrior and myself (holy priest.)

Took 5 minutes. :]

Remember your Spectrecles (https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/item=30719#c0z)

Kommentar von 22318

IMPORTANT: Having spectracles is not enough -- the members of your party need to be on the quest, or else you can't see him. The tank we brought wasn't on it and he never saw it even when it was killing us :-P

Kommentar von Siim97

Do u need flying mount?

Kommentar von 10539

This quest became waayyy too hardcore after blizzart added those netherwing quests... there is simply no room to fight the dragon... I tried to pull him down on my alt and once I got him down off the mountain top to our cleared zone he just started bugging and evading... :(, anyone knows a way to beat him after 2.1?

Kommentar von uohaloran

I'm not positive if this still works - but it did about a week before 2.1:

Anyone who doesn't need the quest and is only there as support (not having to target the actual dragon) shouldn't wear the goggles. This way the dragon can't agro/hit you at all but you can still heal/support the people who are getting hit.

Not sure if it will necessarily matter too much since he is tank and spank - but someone may find this useful.

2 manned this with druid tank and druid healer

Kommentar von 111895

2-manned with a Shadow priest as healer and an Elemental Shammy as Tank and DPS.
I (the Shadow Priest) used one potion, other than that, it was very smooth. And very fast.

I don't think you really need a full group, however, I might recommend bringing a third if you feel uncertain of being able to tank And do DPS in a good way.

Kommentar von 130653

Also 2 manned with a feral druid and Shadow Priest. Took a while as melee dmg against him is low but he only hit for ~900-~1000 with 18k armor. Not sure if he can crit as def'ed up to crit immune for the fight. Shadow priest used Shadow Fiend but had plenty of mana at end of fight. And the fight top the tallest peak is the way to go, didn't agro anything else, had plenty of room for 2 of us, although with 5 it might be a little cramped.

Kommentar von 144370

Note to all who wish to begin this fight. With the addition of the https://www.cuckhead.com/cata/quest=11071 quest, Captain Skyshatter will and has knocked myself and my group off the mountain that you pull Vhel'kur. Unsure if this was the cause, but Vhel'kur got evade bugged on the side of the mountain.

The fireball that hits you does 0 damage. It is a high knockback and is not reported in your combat log. Be aware that we were to pull Vhel'kur, and this wiped half if not most of our group. Frustrating to say the least. If you by chance are not pushed off the mountain, your pushed towards one of the elite Flayers, resulting in your death and anywhere else nearby.

Kommentar von 21986

This can be done without a tank with good dps. Did it with warlock and rogue switching off aggro (soulshatter/vanish when you need lose aggro) and a healer because our tank's goggles didn't work. He went to the town and got replacement goggles and the buff appeared on him, but he couldn't see the guy so all he couldn't help at all. So if you can't find a tank he is still worth a shot.

Kommentar von 125962

aff lock and holy pally. went very smooth.

Kommentar von 66828

hehe i can beat you all one man this q.
Ofcours i was on to acc at the time, but i did not multi box hehe. and i even did it with a lvl 69 druid :)
It took some time but i got him down ^^

Kommentar von Zamorakian

solod on feral druid a couple weeks ago... got my pally (also prot up to 70 with some blues and green) and i got him down to 20% i used lay on hands shields pots.... but down he had some lucky hits on me xD took me a while before i figured i wasnt hitting him and he was hitting me.... (rofl @ target needs ot be infront of you)

Kommentar von 160947

I almost solod this as a holy paly with 900 healing while wearing the spectracles, i got him ~2/3 down before going oom

edit, tryd again with different trinkets, and less holy shocking, and got him to 13k health :( SOOOO close........

Kommentar von manareaver

Tried 3 times as a 70 pure aff lock. 3rd time I got him down to ~20% before he chained crits on the VW and out-damaged health funnel.
He was doing roughly 900-1100 on my VW, with 2200 crits. The first two tries I didn't think to use CoW. The third attempt I kept up curse of weakness at all times and tried to keep SL up as much as possible, but I basically had to health funnel the entire fight or risk losing the VW within 5 seconds.
I might respec just to get this done and then go back (SMV is nearly abandoned with WotLK out). 7 into Demo for Imp. Health Funnel would make all the difference here. I'll try to find a healer or 2nd dps to try this again before that though!

Kommentar von 231907

Killed him as a 70 demo lock. CoW + Corruption + Immolate, and spaming health funnel on my felguard. Did it in the first try.

Kommentar von 175901

He's definately soloable at 70, just did it as a Prot Paladin. I was standing on the peak. He didn't seem to hit too hard, but for a while I had trouble getting in alingment in front of him on that little peak. Good luck.

Kommentar von Velles

great tips! - this is the flying route, its clockwise

go counter clockwise (60%) mount is enough, and you can take him out in the middle of the southern part of the route, a mountain top.

Kommentar von wowhead123xx

If you teleport where would the portal be?

Kommentar von 388159

Tried to solo as a 68 Boomkin, a bit over 800 spellpower, nearly 8k health... not a chance.

Being an old BC quest, it's really hard to find someone that is actually doing this quest as well, since the Spectrecles are needed in order to see him.

Kommentar von 250091

If you destroyed the Spectrecles you can talk to a guy in Wild Hammer to reacquire them.

Kommentar von Jvrsn2pt0

Just Solo'ed as a 67 demo lock. Had to change out a few glyphs and a respec but as I plan to try and solo old world raids and the like later, this was just my first hurdle.

Used my blueberry (Makkrast ftw)
Glyph of VW
Glyph of Corruption

With Imp. VW talents and Imp Health Funnel it made his damage manageable. Before I found I would kill myself slowly with the damage that I would leak away with health funnel constantly on, but changing from demon armor to fel armor (passive health regen) and respecing to pick up Siphon Life the battle went from extremely difficult to a war of attrition. After a long fight he was down with little trouble.

EDIT: most likely doable with Felguard too, I just had to drop it to be able to get Siphon Life at my level. SL and Fel Armor were what really made the difference here with being able to out heal my constant funneling.

Kommentar von Katrica

I just killed him with a level 73 warlock. I'm a level 69 DK. We used the voidwalker to tank, let it's hp drop low, then the lock took aggro until low health, then I did until low health, and repeated. I used runetap to heal along with Death strike. Both used a soul stone also.

Kommentar von 552165

Soloed him with a 68 Blood DK. Just keep an eye on your health bar; his health is intimidating, but he doesn't hit that hard.

Kommentar von 426972

doesn't hit that hard? 67 Ret Pally - 7200 health, dps meter shows i'm solid around 700 - this dude 3 hit me - the worst being 3500dmg - all three attacks came in about 2 seconds - 3011, 1706, and 3510 - i've got BoA sword, shoulders chest and trinket, best enchants/leg armor/armor kits possible. this is not solo'able by this class this spec.

Kommentar von 301403

Just did this a couple minutes ago; He wasn't flying around the island, but he was "stuck" in the ground by Arvoar the Rapacious. I'm a hunter, lvl. 80, caught him with Track Undead after flying around spamming a target macro. If you can't find him at the peak everyone else mentioned; or circling the perimeter, this is probably where he's at.

Kommentar von 299678

80 MM in crafted purples. This is a tough fight. Why? Because if you get on the ground so you can hit him from range, the flayers respawn at a tremendous rate. If you take him at the peak, be prepared (as a hunter) to melee him with your pet... and hunters aren't really known for their melee power heh. Also, you will lose whatever head item you are wearing because of the goggles you need to be able to see the dragon.

My wolf and I ended up clearing flayers, then hitting him on the ground. The flayers kept respawning, and eventually we had to fight not only Vhel'kur but Arvoar the Rapacious as well. Not a fun fight. Vhel'kur killed my pet, and I killed him just as Arvoar and about 6 flayers killed me (out of freeze traps, I could have feigned but the dragon was at ~1% so I just took the death).

Oh well, I got the armor, so that's that.

Kommentar von Ryorin86

Just did this quest on my 80 (working on loremaster)

not sure if its a common bug but I was waiting around 10 min at the spot Ive always killed him...never showed. couldnt find anything about it in comments, had the helm on too. started flying around spamming /tar Vhel found him down on the ground.

So if your having trouble finding him and have your helm on try that. hopefully it was just a weird fluke for me

Kommentar von 350446

For Priests and Mages, you can fight him in the orc encampment and not worry about adds or interference from people doing Skyshatter.

Make a macro that fires one of your instant cast offensive abilities and dismounts you (I used holy nova since I already have that macro, but any instant cast ability works). Just flying through him doesn't work, unfortunately.

Wait for him above the Dragonmaw camp, then fly within range to hit him with your chosen spell/dismount macro. Make sure to hit Levitate or Slowfall on the way down. He'll come all the way down to the ground where you are and it's an easy kill from there.

Kommentar von 698751

solo'd as a 69 prot pally, took alot of time and healing, thats why holy power is so much help.
i wouldnt say its easy to solo but not the HARDEST thing on the game :)

Kommentar von 701655

Soloed this as Lv68 Shadow Priest (in non shadow form).

I just had to make sure to keep my 3 dots up all the time, while Renew, Power Word Shield and Flash Heal alternately. Power word shield can only block 2 attacks and he attacks around once per second. When time allowed, I also channeled Mind Fray here and there

Gears: BOA and Burning Crusade dungeon blues, gemmed, but nothing is enchanted.

Kommentar von ohmyforce

Me and my partner (a 68 prot war and 68 shadow priest) expected a hard fight, but with some concentration we took Vhel'kur down pretty well. Luckily he has no knock-back attacks and can be pulled safely from atop the very high peak at 69.8, 85.9.

Kommentar von 787923

When I was doing these quests, the mobs color changed to GREEN at some point, so I couldnt attack them. Probably because I was doing other quests too.

I figured out the solution is to take off your Spectracles and put them on again. Now the mobs should be red again and can be attacked.

Kommentar von Kittay

A very pretty dragon♥

For me he was just hovering on the mountain top at (69, 85).

Kommentar von stillwingless

If you can't see him at first, take your Spectrecles off and then re-equip them. He instantly appeared as soon as I did that.

Kommentar von 259772

Solo'd as a level 70 Restoration Shaman wearing mostly greens and some BoA's. (Even had the Greaves of Withering Despair still on and Pulled Wool as a cape, one or two NR greens, and the rest were quest greens from OL)

Summoned my Earth and Fire elementals right off, slapped an earth shield on the earth ele, and started spamming Lightning Bolt, Flame Shock and Lava Burst. Elemental timers ticked off and I finished him off by earth shielding myself, auto-attacking, and keeping flame shock up with searing totem. Was easy to riptide through.

Did NOT kill him as Ele, though. Not even close. (Didn't use my cooldown totems, though.)

Kommentar von messiaz

Soloable as 68Feral

Kommentar von hildibrandr

I couldn't see this NPC while using Sandsteindrache / without Illusion des Drachenmals (I don't know which one made the difference).

Kommentar von 994695

You do have to have your Spectrecles to see him, however, I could not find him patrolling Netherwing Ledge!

He was "stuck" by Arvoar the Rapacious (74, 86) somewhat in the ground!

Don't fly around hopelessly like I did!

Kommentar von Grubitsch

HUNTERS: If you feign death, he WILL camp your "corpse".

Edit: He stayed there the whole six minutes...

Edit Redux: After the whole six minutes I realized he can't see me... keep that in mind.

Kommentar von Thottbot

If he is green when you go up to attack him its bugged and you must take off the spectracles and reequip them. BTW you must have them equipped to see him. Our tank bugged like this can could not attack and we wiped.

And yes he flies around the island to the south and you have to pull him at the tip top of the one peak. If you have a mage in the group they can ice lance and slow fall down, worked very well just be ready to get aggro off him ASAP.

Kommentar von Thottbot

it's an elite lvl70 ofc

Kommentar von Thottbot

The highest point on the flying island is the best place to kill him, it's easy for your tank to pull him with a ranged attack and everyone can just stand around there. He wont evade, saves fall damage and since he only auto-attacks your group is fine.

Dont try make this a complicated kite fest>.<

Kommentar von Thottbot

what are coords of him just to lazy to find him

Kommentar von Thottbot

Well as some one said he is at the south island, if you stand in the middle of it he will come bye, hits for 3k or so on a warrior (so i couldnt solo it bah)

Kommentar von Thottbot

We killed him at 69, 85 from the highest peak and he passes right over it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

u really need 5 ppl to do it?

Kommentar von Thottbot

This might seem like a stupid question, but is he hard to kill?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Yeah, he's rather @#$%^y, killed him on my 70 druid a while ago, basicly just lured him down to the ground from the highest peak, gonna do him on my lock now, will update in 5-6 minutes :)

Kommentar von Thottbot

Killed him easy with a 70 rogue, 70 pally(holy), rogue, warrior and me a 70 lock. just pulled him down to ground below the peak.

Kommentar von Thottbot

you need a flying mount to do almost everything else for a lvl 70, temptest keep and so on..

Kommentar von Thottbot

69.8, 85.9

Dragon flies past tallest spire

Anyone who plans on dpsing or looting needs spectrecles, these can be gotten from where you got them from originally at shadowmoon village or wildhammer stronghold, even after completion of the questline.

Kommentar von Thottbot

do u have to be lvl 70to do it i was wondering if i could get summoned up there as a 68 holy pally ?

Kommentar von Thottbot

ya i was doing the quest to kill him and he keeps evading my groups hits, he is landed no where near the ridge where everyone kills him....whats wrong?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Just duo-d this as a half epic geared sub rogue and a blue geared holy pally. I tanked him (the rogue). Had to vanish and bandage to stay alive. Pally died and i finished with 2% health but we got it done. xP

You can be summoned out onto the island by a warlock, i did that when i was level 68.

Kommentar von Thottbot

WTF u need flymount to reach him?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Dont need a flyer

Kommentar von Thottbot

For hunters you can use your hunter's mark and switch for your helmet and still see the dragon

Kommentar von Thottbot

Me n my group killed him w/ 3 ppl, me, a pally, and a hunter (im a rogue) well we had 5 but we were fighting him on a hill N the warrrior fell off N the lock 4got 2 put his goggles on b4 fight! Really took 5 mins but no1 died

Kommentar von Thottbot

Do I need flying mount to find dragon?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Do i need a flying mount to get there or is there another way?

Kommentar von Thottbot

3-manned him, with Pally Tank (me), Mage, and Enhancement Shaman Healing. Took a while, but certainly doable. I was taking about 900 damage a hit (13k armor, blocking about 300 a hit).

Kommentar von Thottbot

You need to do these things in order to participate in the quest for this guy:

1. Get a flying mount
2. Get spectrles from the quest in wildhammer stronghold (its easy)
3. Talk to the shadowmoon spirit

Me (ret pally), two mages, a priest, and a warrior just took him out. With the five of us, it was gravy. I saw a few hits on the warrior, it was only for like 1000-1200, and this was against a level 70 prot warrior in blues/greens.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Does anyone know how to Un-bug the dragon? I pulled him from the air, bubbled when i hit the ground and it won;t Un-bug.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Anyone got my problem?
i cant atack him he's Friendly
anyone know how?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tried putting a group together for this but it was a mess. After getting it together turns out 1 of the lvl 70's was too poor for their flying mount and somebody else didn't have the googles. Then we had the tank go LD and after waiting around another 20 or so minutes I said heck with it and deleted the quest.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

you can range pull him at 72,87

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Tried soloing with a 68 DK... Powned.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Anyone knows how to pull him down?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Follow him around on your flying mount until he starts passing the higher mountain areas in Netherwing Ledge. Stand up on a ledge and pull him when he passes by. He hits very lightly. Easy fight, can probably 4 man it with the right group, he just has a lot of HP.. Quest leads to some really good socketed helm rewards for all classes.

Edited, Jan 30th 2007 10:59pm by PinbackOwns

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Do not try to slow fall pull him with an instant cast. I tryed it three times with my group and he went into evade everytime.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Myself (70 Feral Druid) tanking, 70 hunter for dps, 70 resto shammy for heals. Done and done. Shammy couldn't even see him, was a cakewalk.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Well, i guess i cant one man him lol. As a 69 feral druid i did pretty well though.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

remember to wear the spectacles! we were 5 ppl searching for 20 min before one of us had the brilliant idea to put them on. then we found out he was there all along.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

you can range pull him at 72,87

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Solo'ed as a 70 prot pally. Typical spec, decent AH gear, plus a few pieces of rep armor. Long fight, almost got to use Lay on Hands twice. Go in with Sanctuary and Seal of Wisdom up. Cast Holy Light everytime you hit 50%. Rotate Holy Light with Judgment of Wisdom and Holy Shield to keep mana up. Popped hands when he hit 75%, a 2300 Elixir when he hit 50%, and Divine Shield when he was around 20%. Popped Hammer of the Righteous anytime mana was over 85 for a little low cost damage, but most of the time casting was centered on staying alive or keeping mana up. Not a hard fight if you stay on rotation, just long.

Kommentar von Anon3612

TBC Classic

Definitely want a tank for this, he hits hard. We tried it with just 4 DPS and a healer, and just barely survived thanks to a paladin bubble finishing the last ~10%.

Kommentar von trd5xd

Just to confirm for TBC Classic: if you've already completed the quest, you can help others as dps/tank by equipping your "of Second Sight" helm from the end of the quest chain, OR ask for new Geisterbrille from the original questgiver (Zorus der Richter for Alliance; Chefapothekerin Hildagard for Horde).
