Battered Hilt

[Void]

Battered Hilt is tradeable!!!! gunna get 5 and send to dk/4 pallies for when they hit 80~ or be evil and try to sell it:rolleyes:

[suprafro]

I would suggest selling them now if you can get ridiculous amounts of gold for them, the price will only get lower as time goes on....and i'd guess its going to drop pretty fast based on myself getting 2 hilts in ~1.5 hours of farming trash

[Emo?]

3,3k for them at my server

[Void]

1200g sold in under 5 minutes ill try for 1500 next time

[Void]

holy jesus got another sold for 3k

[Zzc2]

does it only drop on heroic or both normal and heroic?

[offive]

Heroic trash only from what I have read.

[bartholomeo]

and what does it do ?

edit : apparently it's the start of a huge chain; ultimatly leading to : Quel'Delar, Might of the Faithful Quel'Delar, Cunning of the Shadows Quel'Delar, Ferocity of the Scorned Quel'Delar, Lens of the Mind


And for the characters not able to use swords there is a quest that gives an alternate reward : Cudgel of Furious Justice Lightborn Spire Hammer of Purified Flame

[Ualaa]

Starts the quest, which leads to:

And it cleans your house after you complete the quest chain 5 times or more.... or maybe not...

[Mosg2]

I can't wait to get home. I'm going to farm the SHIT out of this. First for my DK+4 Rets, then for profit.

[Void]

just clear the trash stupid me killed a boss and got lockout gunna see if i can fly to instance and hope its reset

[Mosg2]

I armory'd your Paladin, Void, and was wondering if you have any problem clearing the instances? My DK is similarly geared but at the same time with 4 Rets in tow sometimes the melee cleave/ae damage is a bit much for me in other instances.

[Void]

sometimes damage is bursty and i get close to dieing but for the most part its easy. still a few bosses i cant get down. lots of aoe knockback which is bad! Trash tho is super simple no problems with that.

Even with bosses clear, you should be able to physically re-enter an instance you are saved to.
And for non-raid instances, trash should respawn.

[Void]

yea im waiting for it to respawn its been a while now but still its cleared. Maybe 2 hours?

[suprafro]

Are you waiting inside the instance?

The trash will reset in 15 minutes (event waves of trash may not) as long as no one is inside the instance

[cmeche]

Just sold Hilt for 5k. Took about 10 min for it to be bought.

[Ualaa]

On my server, Cenarius US, alliance side.

Auctioneer is showing, average price for a hilt to be 9600g
With the cheapest, currently listed with a 6700g buyout.

A pretty decent cash option, with the patch.

[Void]

still hasnt reset i was offline and everything for about 1 hr

[Fuzzyboy]

Sold 2 for 3k each in like 1 minute - it's insane. I think they nerfed the droprate though - at least that's what someone from my guild told me :)

[Danos]

Yeah drop rate nerfed as a hotfix - in the blues on MMO this morning.

[outdrsyguy1]

i farmed trash for about 3 hours (in heroic) last night and never had one hilt drop. I assume if you have it on free for all loot, anyone that loots will see it and it's not assigned to one particular person.

[offive]

It sucks they can't get things right from day one on live, even after a month of PTR.

"The chance for epic items to drop off trash mobs in the Frozen Halls 5 player dungeons has been reduced."

Farmed trash last night for a hilt... I noticed even junk greens seemed to drop less. Grats to all who got a hilt or two in the window of decent drop rate. I was not one of those people :(

[Void]

Well that just means when one does drop im doubling the price! they set for 7.7k on my server anyway

[Redbeard]

How hard is the trash?

[offive]

How hard is the trash?

Most trash in PoS is cake, primary spell damage is shadow until you hit the two protodrakes with frost. The mobs around Ick are nature damage. You can run around the pit fairly quickly, don't bother with the slaves. Dont bother with the bosses, run out of PoS and clear the lead in trash to the first boss in FoS (again shadow damage), then repeat PoS.

[emesis]

I concur that PoS is the place to farm the trash, the starting pit area is great.

I'm a little bummed that they nerfed the drop rate, OTOH things were a little bit crazy.

I had 3 trash epics drop in 3 consecutive pulls yesterday, one hilt and two BoP epic melee daggers!

So far, I've farmed 4 hilts in about 3 hours of trash farming, selling them all for between 4-5K.

One hilt dropped for me this morning on my fourth trash group after a server reboot for me, so perhaps the hilt drop rate didn't get nerfed too hard (still need to farm them for my team but trying to make money while prices are high!).

[gitcho]

do you have to have the quest for the hilt to drop?

[Mosg2]

Two full clears of FoS and nothing but two greens. Booooooooo!

Edit: Minus the last boss. That guy is ridiculous for melee boxers.

[Volch0k]

been farming trash, not a singel hilt after the hotfix...i have prolly spent 3 hours on trash farming...Now i'm buying them instead for my shamans.

[Mosg2]

I think I'm just going to end up buying 5 of'em. The only one I saw for sale on the AH was 15k though. I can afford 5-7 per, but not that much :)

[Volch0k]

Same, buying them at 5k atm, i mean its a pure 150SP upgrade for all of my shamans....worth it even tho i 'could' have gotten it cheaper.

[Mosg2]

Going from 186dps Titansteel Destroyers to 265dps weapons is going to be ridiculous. It's worth 30-40k. I don't mind farming for a few days but FFS, I want them sooner than later.

[Ruodhaid]

i didet find any, but there were afew on ah the yesterday for 9-11k buyout and thay were sold. if thay fall to 5k i will prolly buy them, but cant see that happen anytime soon

[Multibocks]

I'm pissed I didnt sell mine. I figured it would be a high drop rate forever so I just used it. Rather have the gold I guess.
