A reference to Jonathan Coulton's Skullcrusher Mountain.

You have to kill a boss with 11 million hp, you have 3 allies that will tank him and do most of the damage. Eventually altars will spawn, then you just run around in a circle clicking the three good ones and avoiding the shadow one (it has black swirly stuff around it that damages you if you get close). Your allies can get killed during the battle, and if they do you have to walk up to them and right click them to cast a fast resurrection on them and get them back into the fight.

At about 10%, he kills all your allies and you have to click on a horn that one of them drops. It's very difficult to see it on the ground, even with an arrow marking it, but it's there. Once you click on it your allies rez and the fight is over shortly. Pretty easy but takes a long time.

Kommentar von Smog

This quest can bug and not spawn the horn. If this happens, your two options are: dropping the quest, and sitting through the cinematic again, hoping it doesn't bug the second time, or beating down 600k health 10 dmg at a time.

Fun stuff.

Kommentar von roirdan

I seem to be having a problem with this quest. I survived his backhand and landed on a mountain. I flew back to attack and received no help from the friendly npc's at all. They are still lying down in blue aoe circles after five attempts resulting in my death. I have tried everything to actually get this to start. Any ideas or am I missing something?

Kommentar von 387878

Sadly, no Half pony/Half monkey pet reward to please us :(

Kommentar von 35640

Bugged. When I fly back up there there's about 10-15 Garona and Lady Cozwynn corpses stuck there and 1 Warlord Zaela corpse in the circle with a green arrow that I imagine is supposed to start the fight. Really aggravates me that Bliz could fail so bad at such an important quest.

Kommentar von Telka98

It was bugged for me and 2 other players. We took him down from 270k health while doing about 10 dmg each hit. Boring!

Kommentar von Lucero

Yeah, bugged for me. Tried four times. That's a lot of times to sit through that annoying cinematic.

Kommentar von kamchatmonk

Also bugged, horribly but funny - when I came there, he was fighting like 30-50 Garonas and about 5-7 copies of Zaela and the undead chick. Madness! As soon as I was told to run to altars, he simply died, but this death didn't count towards the quest objective. Rinse repeat... I wrote a ticket to GM, still waiting response.

Edit: GM marked the quest as complete for me and said they didn't know of the issue. Now they do.

Kommentar von 408252

Despite being bugged, did this on my Rogue with a Pally and Druid who were in the area and needed to do the quest. Tank & spank with me occasionally running over and hitting the altars.
We all got credit, no problem.

Kommentar von mcfroger3

As an update, I got the quest to work. All I had to do was start the chain of quests leading to the Dragonmaw. After I finished those, I was able to redo this quest and it worked perfectly.

Kommentar von Dairystyle

Still bugged beyond playablity for me.

Kommentar von Lahfielxi

Rogues can Vanish if he gets bugged at low life to spawn more Garona's. Had about 40 of them hitting him.

Kommentar von 736163

This quest was all messed up, me and a pally kept abandoning the quest logging out and coming back to the fight to gain more mobs to kill him while he was bugged..took a while but deff worked. Finally beat him then he re-spawns 2 seconds later and the fight goes the way its supposed to...psh typical. This quest is doable while bugged but only if u have some time to waste.

Kommentar von CassMori

I successfully completed this quest last night, with no issues, but I had no one else with me (wasn't in a group/party), maybe that had something to do with it?

Oh, and just to note: the item dropped for me was drums, not a horn. (just in case someone sees drums but no horn, and gets confused :) )

Kommentar von astyanx

He's evade bugged for me.

Kommentar von Shapeman

I can't even even complete this quest. After the backhand I fly back to find him stuck in place and evading every attack. Nothing happens and he is stuck at 1 million health. This is really bugging me.....

Kommentar von 279702

As of server maintenance/restart today, this quest worked as expected on my first attempt.

Kommentar von Preliatus

This quest bugged out for me, well the alliance version.

I had one of those rare bugs that fell into the player's favor, rather than causing nerd rage.

The bug I had involved 30 Mathias Shaws, and 40 Holy paladin healer helpers.. lets just say that Skullcrusher the Mountain went down quicker than a troll with ED.

Kommentar von Daarva

Be prepared to spend over 1:45 on this one!
As others have posted, when I first picked up this quest it had the multiple helper NPCs bug. After abandoning and retaking it twice to no avail, I did the Cata quest bug-fix dance: logout, relog and die. Die by flying to a tremendous height and dismounting. This seems to work each time.

When I picked up the quest again and returned from being backhanded, as hoped for, each of the three NPCs were attacking.

Skullcrusher does not attack you, but he has a debuff that minimizes damage to around 10hp per hit. Crits may hit for 25hp. He is in some kind of stationary-purple-flux-petrified state and other than grunting now and again, just stands there and lets you wail on him.

I started spamming general chat for others to join in and soon had around 8 more in there with me. Still, just 10hp per hit but, of course, more hits.

After about a 1/2 hour, Skullcrusher will drop to around 80% and elemental buff fountains will spawn on top of the skull altars. Clicking on these give you & group various buffs that increase hit power and speed significantly. The real bonus here is more frequency of melee and spell hits. If you have a group (even informally organized as we were), have someone run around and constantly trigger the fountains. Buff also gives you a cool shoulder graphic.

The elemental fountains remain for the duration of the fight but during this time you can take damage from a swirling void ground cloud if you stand in it. Easy to avoid if you stay in Skullcrusher's hit box.

At this point, you begin to see a slight acceleration in the decrease of his 11 million health pool. Now is the time to take a bio, read the newspaper or make dinner because you're still about an hour away from completion. Just make sure someone is keeping those buffs stacked.

You will finally get him to 10%, (and as posted here) when he kills the 3 NPCs one of which drops a set of drums. Clicking the drums does two things: 1) resurrects the NPCs and 2) takes him out of his petrified stasis and reduces him to a normal gronn-type mob. The end is in sight--about 2 seconds actually.

Congratulate yourself and friends on the King of the Mountain achievement (if you have done all of the lead in quests) and realize that you will be one of the few who have stuck it out to the bitter-end.

Overall, an easy quest if you have a mountain of patience.

(edit note: clarified that NPCs were attacking).

Kommentar von jadrianz

Did this today. No bug problems at all.. Took about 10 min total time including the cinematic.
Had to rez 3 npc's during fight, clicked on all 3 altars when they flashed about 5 times each, clicked on the drum, no issues seeing it at all..
All pcs to be rez'd and the drum had a big flashing arrow over them.
Big warning on screen to tell you to rez the pc's and click on altars the first time around and for the drum.
Alot of fun to do this quest on a DK.. dont know how it will be on other classes tho, hopefully someone will post info on how it went for the other classes as well.

Kommentar von Junkmeat

I'm tabbed out from doing this quest as I type this. Seeing about the same thing Daarva wrote. Crits running from 150 - 250. I'm grouped with one other person and we've been hitting this guy for about 20 to 30 minutes and only have him down 5%. It had other signs of being bugged. When I first finished the cinematic, someone else had tapped him. I abandoned, tried again, same thing. Abandoned again, grouped with the guy that tapped him and it was still slow, so we both abandoned and tried again. Each time I restarted, he was back at the health he was when I abandoned (98%, 97%, etc.). Nothing's popped up on the altars. I'll probably give up soon and try again tomorrow.

Kommentar von Matic

Still bugged as of Dec 26, NPC's not attacking, Skullcrusher evading everything I threw at him. Did the Cata reset quest dance three times, (drop quest, relog, die, go get quest again) all I managed to do was get a repair bill.

Kommentar von Ormriss

I have been able to finish this quest once on my shaman, but attempting it on my priest today I ran into the evade bug. Skullcrusher himself was stuck in a roaring pose and the friendly NPCs were just standing around. I opened a ticket and was told that Blizzard is aware of the issue. I was not given a 'quest complete', just a 'yep, it's broke. Sucks for you.' response.

Kommentar von 376232

Still evade bugged, no amount of relogging, dying or anything can make a difference. GM ticket raised and they say it's a problem the devs are aware of and are fixing. In other words they know it's completely FUBAR at the moment and we will just have to wait until it's fixed. Bit of a poor show for a climactic quest chain end.

Kommentar von 168200

Been trying this quest for days. After GM ticket and emailing Blizzard, I tried doing it with all my addons turned off. I used to get the same evade bug where the giant is frozen in a roaring position. He hasn't changed but now he is targetable and I am hitting him for a fractions of the damage from around 90%... its going to take a while but seems like progress. I dont know if Blizzard made any changes since couple of days ago. Good luck.

Kommentar von AbsolutGrndZer0

Yeah. No non-raid boss (hell does any raid boss take an hour and 45min to down?) should take this long to fight.

Kommentar von theserf

Evade bugging for me right now at 9%. But that's how I entered so at least didn't have to wait for it to fail.

heh.

Is it worth submitting a ticket for things like this? I mean they know about it...

Kommentar von 749840

still bugged just to let everyone know, evade bugged, at least for me

Kommentar von Hominghead

Coming back up, he is bubbled with 85% Hp.
Nothing to see here folks. Blizzard are new*!@s.

Kommentar von Mattizilla

As of 1-5-2011 11:19 A.M (EST) on Spinebreaker US (Horde side) - I'm having problems with this quest. It works fine up until Skullcrusher casts "Fists of Cho'gall" and you need to use the Drums to revive your companions. Mine do not revive and the whole event starts over. I've done this 3 times now to no avail.

Edit: Ticket was answered and got a big "Hey, sorry we're not gonna do anything. Thanks for waiting 13 hours for your ticket to be answered." How fun!

Kommentar von surfingbird

He bugged out on me and one other trying to kill him after you are supposed to call reinforcements he disappears tried doing it 3 more times and it just kept happening : \

Kommentar von TM2Ben

This quest is bugged, i have try it 5 times with 2 another partys, when we hit the drums the boss will disapeard and the quests isn't compleet

Kommentar von 756302

Is anyone else having trouble completing this quest? You get to the end where you have to pick up the war drums and play them. I pick em up and play em and he dissappears and it starts all over again :(
signed confusedly
duh just went back and read all the other post
obviously at one time this quest was completeable

Kommentar von Smog

Still bugged.

Kommentar von Dihanna

I got him right to where I beat the drums. After doing so I get the message that Dragonmaw reinforcements arrive, at that point Skullcrusher despawns and the event resets. After a few seconds he will spawn again at full health.

This is the response from Blizzard Support:

...
Thank you for reporting this to us. Unfortunately this quest is not completable at the moment in game.

Our development team is aware of this issue and it will be corrected as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
...

Kommentar von 410674

Still bugged as of 6 jan 2011. Tried it 8 times. 3 times of which were drop n pick up (which doesn't fix it, just repeats again.)
I'm shocked the lazy @#$%s still haven't fixed this quest.

Same problem as last 3-4 comments

Kommentar von 304873

Just did it. Big Ditto. Despawns a couple hunter kill shots after drums. One druid there fighting with me had already hung in through a couple despawns before I arrived.

In the mechanics of the fight, on my screen I had a hell of a time seeing the fallen (will raise my gamma if I try it again).

Kommentar von Ocho

Seems to be bugged again as of 07/01/2011.

On 3 consecutive attempts I spent a while grinding down his health to the point where you play the drums to summon the Dragonmaw.

I clicked the Drums, the Dragonmaw arrived but as soon as they jumped off their mounts and Bloodlusted I would lose phasing end up in a fresh one with me, Garona, Zaeta and the healer chick just standing around until Skullcrusher spawned again. Rinse repeat.

Kommentar von Kenpally

If reinforcements are not called after 60 seconds, Skullcrusher the Mountain will now despawn. When reinforcements are called, Skullcrusher no longer improperly despawns.

It will be fixed on your next server restart. Hooray.

Kommentar von Mdj71

Also bugged for me, tried 5 times now.
I get him to the last phase where i have to click the drums after the dragomaw arrives, when i click it i gain bloodlust and then he despawns.

After 1 min or so he respawns with full health and no quest credit :(

Kommentar von 758048

I had to beat him down to about 80% then came in the alter stuff and after his health gets low he does his juggernaut thing and when I click on the drums he disappears and then respawns 10 sec later and I didn't get any credit. WTF is up with that.

Kommentar von 202939

Bugged for me the last two days - Alliance on Alleria.

I get thru the altars, the reviving the guys, and the blowing the horn no problem, but as soon as the horn is blown, I get about 6 lines in chat telling me I've got incoming reinforcements, and then Skullcrusher fades out and, about 15 - 30 seconds later, the quest restarts.

C'mon Blizz...it's an achievement, you'd think you'd have got it right before you made it an achievement...

Kommentar von vusys

I asked a GM about this: http://i.imgur.com/f1jbP.png

I was hoping a GM could manually complete the quest for me, like some of the other commenters have reported, but apparently not.

Kommentar von 758360

Same crap as posted already.....dude gets to 10-15% health, he disappears and comes back with full health about 30 secs later.
Doesn't matter if you play the drums or not, same thing......c'mon blizz! wassup?

Horde on Crushridge

Kommentar von 635577

This is getting old. There has been more problems with bugged quests in this expansion that I wish to even think of. Tried this quest 5 times today. You get to the point where you click on the drums, you hear that the drums have been played, yet he disappears and resets. EVERY TIME!

Kommentar von 410674

EU has just had server wide resets, let's see if they fixed it...

YES
You'd be ecstatic to know, IT WORKS NOW!

Kommentar von 708227

Still not working in the US... fail...

Kommentar von Thansons

Just goes to show you that not all achievements are easy to get. This guy is bugging on me and it makes no sense. I seriously wish blizzard would pay attention and fix things right away, not talk about how they'll get it when the Deathwing patch comes out 5 years from when we complained about it. Thanks Blizzard once again for making my WoW expierence a pain in the butt.

Kommentar von 759144

I just tried it 6 times, and each time at the end when the drums drop, it takes a few minutes, then he reappears at full health. After the first 3 times a Paladin grouped with me and we tried to do it twice, and he had enough and left. I tried it one more time after that. Wasted a lot of time, paid my 50 gold armor repair and put in a ticket.

EDIT on January 11, 2011 at 19.45 server time Draka. Quest debugged and soloable with nice rewards.

Kommentar von 620775

Just tried it twice, bugged both times after using the drum to call reinforcements.

Kommentar von 759409

still is glitched for me on Nazgrel. Get to the drums, and then everything resets.

Kommentar von 740032

a whole day of Twilight Highland questing leading up to this huge disappointing bug. Now I'm really bummed out! :(

6:30 pm Cenarius - Still bugged (Despawning at 840k when you call the reinforcements)

Kommentar von MajorMage

I did this quest five, six, maybe seven times...I lost track.
Here's what happens - you finally get him down to where the drums drop and you play the drums and *POOF* he disappears!

Great quest, Blizz...NOT

Kommentar von Rosenkruez

Hunter tip: Don't Feign Death when you capture aggro or he will despawn.

EDIT: Went to open a ticket but first did a keyword search on the quest. Here's what I found:

"Skullcrusher the Mountain" Issues

"We are aware of an issue regarding Skullcrusher the Mountain not properly resetting at the end of the event.

We are actively investigating a resolution and hope to have one implemented soon.

Article Id: 37186"

EDIT2: Seems to have been fixed in today's maintenance. Enjoy!

Kommentar von ZIGMER

This is completely bugged. Every time it reaches the Horn stage for players today, at least in my server, when the boss is at around 1,000,000 hp, and it says reinforcements have arrived, all the mobs Despawn, and it starts over.

Kommentar von 759899

Dittos. Completely bugged as of right now. US server. I downed him twice, blew the horns at the end of each, fail. I dropped and re-acquired the quest, downed him again, horn blew, fail.

Kommentar von korby

Just completed it a minute ago on Sunstrider EU. They said it should be hotfixed, so I guess it depends if your server got restarted or not.

Kommentar von 679048

I just completed at 5:45 on Demon Soul, looks like they finally fixed it. Go and kill him boys and girls!

Kommentar von BlueInkAlchemist

Still bugged on Wyrmrest Accord as of 10 PM EST, 1/9/11.

We'll see if the next rolling restart finally fixes it.

Kommentar von 33650

Fixed on Korgath as of 12:47 AM 1/10/2011

Kommentar von spingus

Still bugged on Cenarius 1:00am
Stayed up late on a work night to get the 120 quest complete achievement and ended up spending hours doing another 30 quests for the final achievement. The bug is icing on this disaster cake of storyline disappointment.

Silly player.... You thought you were actually going to get some sense of accomplishment and closure for staying up past your bedtime? Ha! Have fun work tomorrow sucker:)

Kommentar von 376232

Went and tried the quest for the sixth time just after a maintenance window and it worked first time. No evade bug, all attackers up and active. Many others still see it as bugged though so it is just luck of the draw. Something Blizzard really needs to address as the climactic quest

Kommentar von Elfshine

As of 1/23/2011 at around 0330, I completed this quest without incident. No bugging out, no despawing, took about one minute 30, maybe two minutes. Fire mage, Level 85, Hordeside on Skywall.

As of 0011 1/24/2011, husband just completed it as well.

I am so glad we never even tried these before this weekend after reading what you all went through. Thank you for paving the way for the rest of us.

Kommentar von 773451

A note for frost mages. I did this quest yesterday and died several times from not getting heals from the npc. On the third try I noticed it was healing my water elemental instead of me. Dismissed the elemental for the fight and had no problem

Kommentar von Mojorx

These quest rewards are by far too little to late.
Apparently very buggy too,

Kommentar von 421871

hands down worst quest in the whole game

Kommentar von Etreum

Was able to complete it with no issues this morning.

Kommentar von 860460

Just did this quest as a blood dk. Died four times in a row on it. Instant death too... I just went from full health to dead in one hit during the middle of the fight, before the horn shows up. I'm guessing what was happening is I was drawing aggro from the NPCs & the attack that would normally down one of them (so that you can click revive) was hitting me instead. So I just toned it down & did far less damage, the fight went normal, and I got credit for it.

Kommentar von MiltiadesBooga

Witnessed a truly amazing evade flipout tonight. He eventually stopped once I had all the altars going, but for a while there nothing was touching the stupid gronn. No addons, no nothing, just fail!

Oh Skullcrusher. SHINE ON YOU GLITCHY DIAMOND.

Kommentar von 975027

Balance druid 85.
The only way I found to do this quest after dying way to many times, was to:

Start to hit him from afar if you can. The three NPCs will be trying to do damage too. They will tell you to go to the altars, click on each one. WATCH the purple swirly things that go off periodically at different altars. You will die standing in or around them.

Best bet is to do as they ask, jump on the rocks, hit from there or do not hit let the npcs do the work. When they tell you to heal one of the NPCs. make sure the altar you are going through does not have the purple swirls, if it does wait till they go on to another altar, then go in and right click to heal them, back up to your rock.

There will be a drum that falls, and you will have to run in and click on the drum, help will come, quest complete. Good luck!

Kommentar von Palamaratos

Just finished the quest, second try. Pyrewood Village-EU
First try reseted when I died

Kommentar von breaker581

This is not a fun quest. As a Warlock, I spent all my time running in a circle around the boss keeping dots up, avoiding the black/purple flame, and clicking on npc allies to revive them as they would all go down so fast. They are so close to the boss, that half the time I clicked on them, my Lock would try and melee attack the boss, making me have to click a second or third time for it to work. The boss finally went down after about 10 minutes on my first try.
