One way to do this guy:

1) Let the warrior pull.
2) DPS will take down the first 4 non-elite basilisks which spawn, while the warrior builds more aggro on Antu'sul.
3) After the 4 non-elites are dead, the DPS will go all out on Antu'sul.
4) Tank, still with Antu'sul hitting him, will try and get as many elite basilisks on him as possible. Keeping them off the healer is main priority.
5) DPS kills Antu'sul
6) Hunter argues that whatever dropped HAS to be hunterloot.

Commentaire de chillyman

What is the general recommended level for entering this instance? Could i.e. a level 43 shaman survive in the field?

Commentaire de avalanche

If a hunter or warlock sends their pet at him and pulls him out of the cave, the first wave of non-elite basilisks will not spawn.

Commentaire de 83140

just adding to Sidewalk's previous comment: the tank should always pull, due to the fact he should get the first melee hit to build aggro. I as a tank, see that if the hunter or others pull him i had a harder time (at 48) too keep aggro on him if of course someone HAS to dot him so i cant build up aggro.
DONT be a douche, leave the pulling to the tanks for this one.

and then the rogue should ninja the sword as a few have done when i wanted Sul'Thraze.

just like the Chief, hes 46 since 2.3

How to avoid the first pack of non elites in 2.4.2

The four none elites are spawned when you engage the cave, not when you engage Antu'sul.

By jumping up on the cluster of rocks on the right side of the cave entrance will make Antu'sul evade, taking the adds with him back in to the cave. The adds will now despawn after 60 seconds, making your group able to engage him with out having to deal with the first wave of adds.

This method can be applied to the rest of the adds as well after Antu'sul is dead.

Commentaire de goblinego

He has most pimpest weapon...(mini-totem)

Commentaire de 146819

His Healing Wards and Earthgrab totems need to be destroyed ASAP when he puts them down. You don't want the adds getting healed, and the Earthgrab Totems will root you about every 3 seconds, usually only giving you about 1 second of movement between each rooting.
It's also a good idea to focus on HIM, not the adds (at least after the non-Elites that spawn when he aggros). He'll keep spawning more until you take him out, so focusing on the adds is just going to waste your time.

Commentaire de 176286

Walking near the cave causes this guy to spawn his adds, and run out of the cave after anyone. I tried this as a 45 rogue solo, on a pickpocket run. I got greedy and wanted to see what I could pickpocket off this guy. He had 1 silver, 61 copper. The catch is, even if your in stealth, he can still "see" you. He will chase you, until he catches you and breaks your stealth. You can still use Distraction to slow him up which you stealth-run to the entrance. Just a heads up. Unless you plan on killing him, don't go close.

Commentaire de Shapeman

and it should be noted that when he gets low on health the first time he will use a spell called the healing wave of antu'sul so that if he is at 10% it heals him back to 30%.After that he he just uses flash heals that must be interrupted to kill him fast enough so that u can kill him before u get too many basilisks.

and note that how is it posible that ive done zf just for antu'sul like 15 times and The hand of antu'sul never dropped once and 2 sang'thrazes dropped. and i wanted one for my shammy

EDIT: Since then i have gotten the hand of antu'sul since and repalced it with ripsaw/Bonesnapper combo with bonesnapper MH. also to note that it depends how long the fight goes for him to use healing wave of antu'sul

Commentaire de 234702

I went with a group of almost 50s (we all dinged 50 off quests) and this fight was easy. No strategy involved except clearing the area beforehand. If you ask the priest, he'll say it was all his doing.

In fact, we did all of ZF with that strategy, and the gear was still good, as were the quests.

But definitely, if you're lower level, go for the strategy.

Plus, the sword dropped first time. Extremely lucky for me, level 50 tankadin.

Commentaire de 308745

I needed the sword as i got the other one a few levels previous, couldn't be bothered grouping the hole instance just for the 1st boss, and with kinda decent ret gear, i decided to try to solo up to and kill him at level 55, getting to him was a lot easier than i thought it'd be. Boss himself is tricky though.

Just make sure u consecrate the 1st wave of non-elites then bubble when u have the boss + 3 elites on you and burn him down.

My 2nd sword droped on the 2nd kill :D

Happy hunting !

Commentaire de 364419

Hey i'm just curious would a level 50 combat spec rogue (well geared!) with pots and buffs be able to take this guy? dont care bout dieing just kill die rez loot ?

Commentaire de 255452

on this guy well around the area there are some broken pillar fragments if u stand ont he right one in the right place then you will become un attackable by the mobs especialy useful if your the healer or you are a ranged dps be aware that it is a bug and the mobs that those standing on the pillar have aggroe of will become immune to make them attackable again just hop off so your tank can aggroe them (best to do this after the boss himself is downed).

Commentaire de 501371

Most people kill this guy for the sword he drops, which combines with it's brother sword to make an epic, which requires level 50 to use. And Oh my god. I have been counting how many tries I have gone in to get this sword. I recently finished my 52nd try. I was lucky enough to get the other part of the sword off of the boss during a regular run, but for god's sake, I CAN NOT GET THE OTHER ONE! If your in the same situation as me, and it WILL NOT DROP, than my advice is simply this, don't spend so much time running through it in a group, get a high level to help you, once it doesn't drop (lol) run out, and reset.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Really simple strat. First thing's first, be very careful to not approach the cavern entrance. Even on the sides, he WILL agro. Clear out any extra spawn from the sides, set casters and primary/backup healers up on the hilly parts (brown mountains) then send your tank in. He cannot be rooted or poly'd, I doubt anything could ever really hold him.

First thing about this guy, to beat him? Completely ignore him until you kill everything he spawns. Then you attack him directly, if you're a healer and you get agro, run around in a circle while your party takes him out-- I did this as a druid, and once my party killed the initial spawn, he was a breeze. Just make sure his elites go down whenever they appear. Piece of cake. Areas are the weapon of choice for the initial non-elite spawn, but mages need to be really careful to not cast too soon, as they know.

Tanks either must keep Antu'sul on them, or let a really good healer who knows how to keep themselves alive run him ragged. Anyone with ranged non-magic or a fast weapon should be on totem duty, healing wards and earthgrab/bind are top priorities.

Hope this helps ya'll.

Commentaire de Thottbot

We too ran into that basilisk that throws you back 40' at then end of the fight every time you try to leave the area. Turns out though that there's a path throgh the hills that allow you to bypass it and get back into the instance.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I tried soloing this as a 60 druid. I got through the first wave of adds using maul in bear form....then at half life he summoned one elite guard...I tanked it down and continued...then at 5 or 10% he summoned 2 more elites, rooted me, backed off and healed himself. I simply didnt have enough mana/abilites left to finish it. I was so damn close :p

Commentaire de Thottbot

The easiest way to kill him is by having a hunter. Yes a hunter.

As an earlier poster wrote, "the 2 hunters sent in the pets and when they aggroed we went in"

This is because somehow when a hunter's pets aggroes him he doesnt spawn the 8-10 level 40+ Basilisks. He will however spawn the elite basilisks over the duration of the fight.

I was a lvl 45 warrior when I killed him and the highest in my group(well the rogue was 45 too) so yeah he is doable and easy.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Has anyone tried straight bum-rushing this guy to keep him inside of the cave throughout the fight? He doesn't spawn the non-elites until he's outside of the cave, which may explain the Hunter pet situation explained above.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Do not do this:

well, started off well.

me (level 46 tank) warrior charges in.
challenging shout...then hit retaliation.
everyone after ran inside...

level 50 priest at the very end of the cave
level 45 warlock also.

so enemies and us switched position...boss and all his spawn was near the outside of the cave.

i was holding all the agro including spawns....healer was healing...

but then i lost agro to the boss... to the warlock.

all 3 of us dead...boss still had half life.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Send a pet in first and you won't get all the non-elites as long as all of the players are away from the cave. You'll still get his periodic elite spawns, but not the thousands of non-elite ones. Give it a try.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Free Action Potion, anyone?

Commentaire de Thottbot

As soon as the first in our tight-knit, regular group hit 46 we set out for ZF and had no problems with it until Antu'sul, who we turned to last. Group made up of 46 war, 46 shm, 45 priest, 44 mage, 44 shm, all in fairly good gear.

Not knowing the exact spawn sequence and whether the basilisks were timed spawns or tied to Antu'sul's health, our first attempt was a miserable failure. The second one went better. It was a no-frills kill, without special tactics, "creative" pulling or other exploits. We only barely made it. I therefore consider our group the bare minimum to beat him given our choice of spot to fight him in.

What happens when you fight him is that 9 basilisks spawn. They seem to be timed spawns, so there is nothing you can do to stall it. First 6 non-elite basilisks spawn. These should be AE'd down ASAP. Then 1 elite spawn, and shortly thereafter yet 2 more elites spawn.

If your lvls are low like ours you absolutely have to deal with the adds before killing him, or they will eat your cloth and then the rest. Luckily, Antusul's dps isn't all that high, not against a tank with decent armor, so the tank should try to retain aggro on him while at the same time tanking at least one other elite, preferably more.

A really serious problem occurs when your group dps is low, like it is when you are low lvl, and you fight him straight outside his cave, like we did. The respawn on the static yellow elite basilisks that you cleared before pull is very fast. You WILL get respawns if you can't deal with the encounter quickly enough. We had three. That's three more elites to deal with while at the same time entertaining Mr Antu'sul. Respawns have to be killed before the boss as well, the reason being their long lasting stun, which often hits the tank. It should be dispelled immediately. The trolls outside cave won't respawn anytime soon however.

Our 44 mage died just before going completely OOM and there was neither healer mana nor any point in trying to save him. Repops made sure he couldn't come back quickly, although the fight lasted so long that he could have run back to help otherwise. So we were effectively only 4 for a large part of the fight. In the end stage I, the 45 priest, was OOM barely keeping the warrior alive with Renews from standard in-combat mana regen with help from the shamans and a couple of pots. Eventually, we avoided further respawns and could focus on slowly grinding Antu'sul down through straight melee.

There is an open spot towards south connecting to the sandy path leading up to the cave. Only one static elite basilisk is in that area and we reckon it should be a better spot to stage the fight in as you would only have to deal with one respawn at most. We will try it next when revisiting for the good loot we weren't lucky enough to get.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Hey is there a shortcut from the begining straight to this guy?

Commentaire de Thottbot

We beat him this weekend first time through for some of the party. We had 3 Rouges 45-48 Me a Warrior 45 and a Druid 43. The 3 rouge blitz the cave to kill Antu'sul quickly while I tanked the adds and the druid kept me alive. NP when down quick.

Commentaire de Thottbot

also, if u want to know a real good trick, u can use a pet to aggro and pull antu sul out and he only summons 3 or less adds

Commentaire de Thottbot

anybody know any strats to solo this guy? pretty sure it can be done. I have a 60 warrior fury specced atm and I'm trying to get the rare sword drop from him...I already got the rare sword off of Chief Ukorz :) looking to be first on server with sul'thraze the lasher...just need to know how to farm Antu'sul. thanks for any help you can provide

Commentaire de Thottbot

have a hunter send pet in have him sacrifice pet then the dude will only spaw 2 elite basilisks and no others very easy to take down

Commentaire de Thottbot

i cant find this guy in Zul Farrak could anyone direct me to wherei can find this guys pls and thanks

Commentaire de Thottbot

The strategy we use for our group of warrior, druid, mage, priest and hunter:

The druid and hunter pet tank the boss whilst I, as the warrior agro the first adds with Challenging Shout and Retalliation whilst the mage does some Arcane Explosions, we then kill the boss and tank the elite adds.

5/5 times without one death is good I say. I would count a sixth time but this other mage did not follow the plan or know what an add or AOE was.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i ran ZF 3 times a day to get this sword but it never dropped, everybody always says jang is the hardest to drop if you have jang sang is easy to get i started running ZF at 47 thats when i found jang so everyday i ran it 3 times and the sword never dropped it ws always the lifeblood amulet or those gloves

Commentaire de Thottbot

I ran this instance 55 time to get both Jang'Thraze and Sang'Thraze. I got Sang from this guy first, which i always bring a hunter to pull him to elimenate the problem of the 6 non-elite adds. the hunter trick, id have to say, is the best way to deal with this guy. our hunter pulled him, i being a pally tanked him while one person was on totem duty and the others focused on him til he spawned elites. i dont think we even had a healer, but no one died. the second sword was that hardest tot get. cuz you gotta go all the way to the cheif and to do that you have to do the stairs event. id have to say getting sang would be the easiest cuz at the first fork in zul farrak you take a left cleat the martyr and then take a hard left around a wall and you are there, you can go in try for the drop, leave reset the instance and try again. easy as cake. oh BTW, it took me so long cuz of the stupid drop rate and the fact i got ninja'd 2 times for both swords, and lost 2 rolls on them. i have Sul'Thraze now though and god its a good sword, there is better but i like mine. i started ZF at lvl 46 and came out 3/4th to lvl 51.... I HATE ZF NOW, NEVER GOING BACK, CEPT WITH MY WARRIOR. LOL :D

Commentaire de Thottbot

tanks need to pull him with a gun or bow and bring him to the front of the cave. the area outside the cave should be cleared and the healer/ranged dps should be by the rock facing the cave...sunder armour stack it 5 times and always be in defensive stance. once his minions spawn you need to spam demoralizing shout against his spawns and if the healer pulls agro use taunt and if there are multiple spawns on him than use challenging shout and they should be yours. ALWAYS REMEMBER! dont let the dps's kill the elite spawns until Antu'Sul is dead because they can easily pull agro which can cause a wipe. and also.. spam demoralizing shout and sunder Antu and this fight should be easy

Commentaire de Thottbot

ironic that the hardest boss in ZF drops the lowest level loot >_<

Commentaire de Thottbot

very easy...when you have a 70 with you :)

How TO DO IN HUNTERS WAY !

First: Send in ur pet and use it to attack 1 or 2 times.

Second: Then take ur pet out.

Third: Fight Him ( Don't Fight Him Close To Cave Or You May Cause Him To Spawn Basiliks And Then U Shall Have Difficulty ).

Commentaire de Thottbot

If a warr needs the sword he can easily be farmed if you have a 60+ rogue friend. All you have to do is have the rogue ride to his lair (epic mount makes it easier), aggro, then run back to entrance where the warr is. Vanish to de-aggro the adds you pulled while riding, and he'll still come to you despite the vanish because of something to do with the event I imagine. Anyhow, you can 1v1 the boss at entrance, reset, and retry. Only thing that's stopping me is the limit blizz puts on instance resets, otherwise you can farm him easily.

Edit: Be patient when you run back to the entrance, he takes 3-4 minutes to get there because of the length of the run, but he will show.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I am not kidding i swear i have done zul'farrak and killed antu'sul 19 times and still havnt got it i mean god i just want to get the deflecter and i have the other one ...

I killed him like 3 times and he drops really cool items.He is really easy to kill.Try to clear up the area around him and don`t approach to the cave entrance.

Commentaire de Thottbot

I've already got the other half of the sword he drops, now I just need his. Can anyone tell me the number of runs it took them to get Sang'Thraze the Deflector?

THE baslisk, thank god, are no longert elites

Soloed as lvl 53 BM hunter. Used a healing pot

Commentaire de Allakhazam

HE is off to the left inside Zul Farak, there is a cave....

I approached him prowled, but he must have true sight, cause he attacked me from like 50 yards away.

Being 4 lvls his senior, i decided, why not try it. I start to engage and run into the cave to avoid additional mobs, but i get swarmed by broodlings which come at me from every which way, prolly like 10-20 lvl 39 non elite lizards..

So be careful with this guy, I was seeking Gift of The Wild.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Huge aggro range, his true sight makes stealth worthless, and you get swarmed by basilisks when you attack him. Easily stronger than Ghaz'rilla himself, unless you have a seriously good party that can take hits and kill adds, be careful. FYI, most of the basilisks are non-elite, but the non-elites come in a big ass group and the he still summons a fair amount of elite ones.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Have tank (or offtank) take him on. Don't waste time on the summoned basilisks until he's dead. Very easy fight. Once he's down, no more add-ons and some actually 'disappear'.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

There are serious errors with this boss on server Hyjal.

Antu'sul cannot be targeted. That is to say, with a group of 5 (including a lv 60 warlock), we cannot target him using any of these:
Tab
t
Left click
Mouseover

Antu'sul did not attack. Rather, he spawned non-elite mobs and threw us up in the air, one at a time. While never able to affect the entire party, because of the targeting bug he could not be destroyed, or even damaged with area effect spells.

The result: After 3/5 of us were killed by spawns, he was unable to summon more aid, so the other 2 just tried various targeting strategies while three of us ran back to the dungeon from the Gadgetzan graveyard. Then we gave up.

anyone have any luck gettin the axe (purple) off him?....that is all...as you were

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I killed this mob with mid 40's group and it was quite easy,just focus on Antu'sul not mobs, after killed him, most of mobs disappear, if you have trouble finding him, here should be some advice, just go instance normally wya, then when you come to "the scarab room" kill martyr but not scarabs then turn to slightly left and there you see a cave, he is in that cave and wil laggro if yo ugo near cave, killl outside mobs before Antu'sul.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

the drop rate of the Vice Grips is bugged i hva done this guy 20 times and they have never dropped mabye they just hate me

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Could this guy be soloed by a 51 BM Hunter? I want Sul'thraze =D

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I GOT IT!

waht i do with it......

Commentaire de Allakhazam

3 maned this guy with a 49 rogue, 50 warlock and 41 hunter

Commentaire de Allakhazam

If you have a warlock, then get the warrior to tank on antu'sul, then have the warlock aoe fear the crocs...those that resist, kill them. Then pick off the other feared broodlings and dps antu'sul. When he summons more just repeat above process and you will find that this boss is rather simple.

All you really have to remember is that the broodlings are really easy to kill...they havent much health and they go down pretty fast if u just let the party kill them quickly (other than the warrior). Follow that and you should have no problem killing Antu'sul.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

soloed as 56 hunter.. pretty hard

Commentaire de Allakhazam

if a hunter's pet attacks him, to pull him out of the cave, he won't summon, at least not for a while :)

This guy is annoying!
Firstly the instance is bugged to hell, secondly the repawn rate of the instance is horrible and thirdly i would like to know why the chief is easier to kill than a sub-boss? >:¬|

Commentaire de Allakhazam

killed him yesterday with a full group in their late 40's. tough fight (no one expected so many adds = wipe on the 1st round, sucess on the 2nd). I was lucky enough to get the hand of antu'sul on the 1st kill just to aggro every friggin' roach cause I haven't read the proc carefully lol. DON'T use this weapon if you want to single pull mobs

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Ok, if you have a warrior and a back up tank... This guy is super easy. Just tell your warrior (me in my case), to whip out his 2h and use challenging shout and retaliation on the adds while the rest of the group focuses on Antu'sul. In about 5 sec the warrior will have a pile of dead basilisks and he can then join the rest of the group on Antu'sul.
