You can do a quest chain to lead up to this or it looks like you can simple just start it inside SFK. It is similar to the Headless Horseman in that each person in the party can summon the boss(es) one after the other and you have more chances at a mount.
The quest NPC will give you a satchel and in it there will be a scroll to 'charge' the 3 bosses and get them to attack you. There will be a purple potion and a green potion.
Each potion will make you immune to either the purple aura boss or the green aura boss. The boss with no aura throws bombs that can be either green or purple.
If you use up a summon and you wipe, thats it you cant summon again that day. I wasted 3 summons working out my strat. My 4th attempt I solo'd them on my Paladin as everyone else got wasted. On my 5th summon I smashed it. Thought it would be good if people shared their strategy to help out other boxes.
I set up my Jamba Itembar so that when I use aciton slot one everyone drinks the green potion. When you start the event the purple boss will stay where he is, the green boss will move to your lower left and Mr Bombs will move to your lower right.
I make my tank eat the purple potion and stand behind the purple bosss. My clones all stand behind where the green boss will run too with the green immunity on.
When the fight starts I burn the purple boss as fast as I can and then switch my tanks potion to the green one and burn the green boss as fast as a I can. You will want to make good use of follow and group healing as the Mr Bombs will drop purple aoe on you that you are not immune too.
Being immune to green is the best as there are little exploding men that run around and die in 1 shot, they are green aura people so drinking the green potion seemed to make me immune to them. Once purple and green man are dead I just had everyone on follow and stop/started my way around the room nuking Mr Bombs who cant be tuanted and just runs around everywhere throwing stuff and never actually hits you.
Post your ideas on how you did it and hopefully this helps some people.

3 guys, each have about 264k hps
One does purple stuff
One does green stuff
One runs around like a madman and throws both
They split up just like slats said - the first guy(purple) stays where he is, the other(green) moves down and left, next to the fountain, and the third guy down and right on the other side of the fountain
They become active one at a time, a few seconds apart.
Basically I set all my guys up just like slats, behind the green guy, below the fountain. I put green immunity up on all my guys
Start fight, go nuts on the purple guy. As you are fighting, pull him towards the next guy (green) so that you are standing right on top of both for when the green guy activates. I have a paladin tank and this let me pick up the green guy with consecrate. Although when I did it with my druid tank swipe worked just as well for snagging him.
kill the purple and green, and then do baxter - baxter CAN be taunted, but he resets aggro constantly, so you can just spam your taunts on your tank to get him to head towards you while you nuke him.
As for the puddles, I simply kept all my guys stacked, and the moment a purple puddle appeared under me I straffed just a bit right. So you just strafe right slowly behind the fountain. Worked like a charm.

I didn't notice that there were 3 bosses. Burned the first one (who stands still) down really fast, didn't use a heal. Thought that the 2 mobs hitting my shamies were simple adds. But that were in fact the bosses. Still got away with it. Chain heal and taunt and it was over in seconds.

Finally got to give it ago and after a first shaky near wipe i got the hang of it - thanks for the tips :D
I dont bother tanking baxter until hummel is dead, the cologne (green) immunity means he hits for like 200 so i can just focus on keeping hummel away from the ranged. I pull him away after just to avoid chain reaction, but he didnt seem to cast that very early so had plenty of time.
Frye also gives me some much needed facing pratice for pvp, man he never stands still ^^.

All these new encounters that require everyone to move are giving me a headache! Ever get the feeling Blizzard has started doing this just to make life hell for multiboxers lol.
I run a 4 druid 1 pally team. Might be the fact that I am still learning but I've got through several heroics and challenging fights. But these 3 love bosses are giving me hell!
Burn down Hummel and by the time I get to the other guy i'm half wiped as the whole group starts to take massive damage. Well off to try my 4th attempt already wasted 3 on tries =( Wish me luck!
WELL I did it but it was MESSY as hell lol. Wiped again on the 4th try and finally pulled it off by the skin of my teeth on the last attempt. One thing I learned about multi boxing so far is never give up.
My biggest problem seems to be the guy who randomly throws crap on the ground and my slaves get eaten up by it before my healer can get on top of it.
How I pulled it off was set my healer up on the ledge left of the apothcaries- then put my slaves by where the green guy goes. With the obstacles all around that area getting hung up on things is easy to do...
Ah well I'll quit crying now ;) I pulled it off and I guess that is all that matters except 1 loot nowhere near as good as 5 loots.

12 attempts, 1 wipe (all cooldowns were used on previous fight and now ready, plus it was a weaker team). So killed them 11 times. Only non-necklace loot was the blue cloth headpiece.
Just tried it with my three elemental shamans. The first time I popped the anti-perfume. I herolusted on the pull and got the first guy down to like 20%, but then the second guy came up and hit me and I had to stop and chain heal and then I tried moving and got in clouds and ended up wiping. Second try I did the same thing but with fire elementals, thinking if I could kill that guy first it would be better, but I still wiped. Third try I got it and it was easy though.
I used the anti-cologne perfume. Talked to the guy to spawn the quest and dropped an Earth Elemental (I actually used all three, but I think I could have gotten away with just one, since they were all at 85% health at the end. So I let the earth elementals hit Hummel a few times and I gently dpsed him. I let Baxter come to me since I was immune to just about all his damage. I pulled Hummel off my elementals, but Thunderstormed and knocked him back. After he died I downed Frye, and I had to move out of a perfume cloud once before he died. And then Baxter was easy. I'll have to try it tomorrow with just a single Earth Elemental and see if it survives.
Oh, I should add that I'm very well geared. In case my strat doesn't really work for less geared characters.

hey ryan tell us what you get when you pop 1 earth element also where were your guys standing at? I just tryed it and failed at the start due to the fact i lavaburst and pulled aggro my gearscore is 5200 on all shamans so will have to give it ago again
2nd attempt that time I went to slow I think I got bombed then 2 clouds of posion was under me ranout and got bombed again and dead :(
I used up all my attempts for today, but I'll try the one elemental tomorrow and let you know how that goes. For positioning, I dropped my totems kind of back near that fountain thing, walked up and turned in the quest, and popped my elementals and ran back to my totems before they aggroed. So I had some distance between my elementals and me. I pulled aggro, but not immediately, so when I did I was able to thunderstorm him back and continue DPSing without him being close enough to hurt me with the aura.

My biggest problem was Frye. What I did was position my guys next to the stairs where you enter the room, and tanked next to the fountain. This positioning seemed to be good to keep Frye always in front of my minions as he ran around. I killed the purple guy first, then Frye then the green guy. I only got the kill on my last attempt so I'm sure I could do it much smoother tomorrow. I didn't switch immunities very well so improving that will also make it easier.
3 sham and 1 pally tank.

I'm still sticking with burning Purple, then Green and leaving Frye for last. He just runs all over the place and if I have both him and Green up it just gets too crazy. The green guy can still hurt you if your immune he casts some massive aoe that hurts no matter what immunity you have - it has a cast bar. I think someone already mentioned what its called.
I'm tempted to fix up Jamba Item bar so shift mouse up is purple and shift mouse down is green so I can just stand on the spot and nuke Frye. I successfully did 4/5 today because my lowerping server crashed so I dc'd and wiped.
I stopped positioning my guys perfectly behind green man, it doesn't really matter I just stood them next ot the fountian and as long as they all started with green immunity and the tank started with purple and then switched to green after he was dead it was smooth sailing.
No giant pink peni... I mean love rockets though. :( I got some flowers and 3 different neck pieces.

My approach was drinking one of the potions prior to the fight making me immune to one type of gas. Then I pull. Tank them with the back to the group - when Fry (or whatever his name is) spawns, kill him asap, then go back the the remaining. If you have a dedicated healer, you can heal through the clounds you're not immune to, but if you're less geared or dont have a dedicated healer, simply watch out for the clouds youre not immune to a strafe/walk out of them.

Wouldn't it seem killing the non-aura bomb guy first would make the most sense, to remove the annoying movement aspect of the fight?
No mob needs a "tank", since they only melee once every few years. I duo'd (non boxed) as an arms warrior and a priest and he just held the green guys attention while I burned down the purple, then killed bomber, switched to green and finished that.
So my strat to try would be putting a guy on the purple, stacking the rest on green, and just blowing up the bomber first, then taking my time with either of the other two.

I used slats method. Worked like a charm first try 5/5. You can get lucky and if the 3rd guy never drops purple on your guys it is very easy. I did it one time like that without having to heal at all. The other 4 times I had to move around and do a few chain heals.
Thanks for the method slats :)

They dont need tanking, but they do need turning away from the group, since they do sort of a cone AE attack.

Both cast Chain Reaction which is a melee range attack and does about 8-10k damage, that combined with a few suicide guys/perfume could quickly drop your ranged group.
The cone attack is the perfume/cologne

I had a lot of problems first day, wiped a few times. Cleaned up strat a bit and I find the fight very easy now, takes under 40 secs to kill em all with 1 tank + 4 DPS.
Strat is very simple, everyone pop green potion, tank pop purple. Burn down purple guy, you have ~10-15 secs before Frye is active so you can get him very low quickly. After purple guy (Hummel) is down have your tank go green potion now.
Next kill Frye, he tosses the pools on the ground and I've foudn thats really the only thing that can kill me. If lust is up use it on Frye, the faster you get him down the better. After Frye is dead burn down last guy, ez.
If your team does end up standing in a purple pool of course strafe out of it, but its really hard to tell sometimes. I've tried doing things like standing on fountains, tables, boxes, big machines, etc but found it more hassle than its worth.
I go in with all caster team, I took my rogue in once but he pretty much died and made the fight a lot harder. For now I'm just letting him go solo in pugs, its ridiculously easy playing solo.

Something I found that may or may not actually be the case, but worked on all 9 of my runs yesterday:
Frye seems to be averse to dropping both a green AND a purple in the same spot. It didn't happen a single time for me yesterday. So what I did was immediately move my guys INTO a green spot (since they have green immunity). The green circle stays around a bit, and for me it is enough to last the whole fight.
If this is not actually the case and I just had a run of good luck I appologize, but would be worth checking out if you are having problems with the puddles.

Pretty much exactly what I'm doing; dps starts out green-immune and 10y or so behind the first boss, tank is purple immune, burn purple and by the time the green guy is engaged purple is either dead or very close. Tank switches to green-immune, burn green. Last is the ground-dot-tossing guy, make sure searing totems are down (they're immune to the ground dots), keep your guys moving out of goo, stop for heals to keep everyone topped off. Heroism helps a lot in burning the first two down, depending on gear you may want to wait 10 mins between attempts.
Learning this I had all my dps die twice cause they were in a ground goo, but found I could solo the last guy on my pally as long as I used cooldowns wisely and kept out of the goo.
Note: 3rd guy is stunnable, and I'm pretty sure rootable as well. Stunning the 3rd guy keeps him from dropping goo and also makes him stand still. I didn't notice if shield toss or other silences prevent him from dropping goo. I haven't tried fears or other CCs, or stunning the first two bosslets as they drop pretty fast.

Been dragging some alts through this, but still no rocket joy.
I put the green pot on all chars, drop 1 earth elemental and wait for it to start tanking the 1st & 2nd boss. (its immune to almost all damage)
I then kill the 3rd annoying runaround boss, just moving out from the odd purple poison patches on the ground. Then down the 1st boss, making sure not to over agro elemental; there's plenty of time as the elementals not required for the 2nd boss who goes down last.
This way, the only damage i take is from the little adds that the elemental doens't pick up. With 5 shaman I can rotate over all my alts with no waiting on elemental cooldowns.
I find this much easier than using my paly tank, as most of the time the 3rd boss is down before he throws a purple pot at me, so normally no movement involved throught the fight.

I finally got it down now. Think I was just off my game the first day figuring out the encounter.
The strategy I use is to stand 2 DPS up on the crates near the fountain- you get on them by the ledge. Then I put my healer up on the fountain and final DPS w/e generally on the lower fountain edge.. Them being off the ground buys me some time to get Hummel down and then go for Baxter the green guy.
If you get Hummel down then you can pretty much solo the last 2 guys if worst came to worst. Just keep moving! The lack of aggro table on Frye fairly guarantees my slaves will be dead by the end but usually 2-3 survive and have had a few flawless victories now.
Got the mask-wasteling and seen every necklace so far... Now just need that rocket! Geez I'll totally freak if that thing drops lol.

Frye may not have an aggro table, but he's definitely taunt-able. I kick the purple guys ass, switch to the green immunity then have Frye bouncing between me and my team like a ping-pong ball using taunts while avoiding the purple goo he may toss on the ground. It has become really simple! :)

I know this event is just about over. I finally got a streak of 0 deaths on this one, so I figured I'd write up what has worked for me.
This works "best" if you have a pet of some kind, but it isn't mandatory. I used the 'lock succubus to really good effect.
Park the team all lined up (being lined up is important!) facing the boss with the quest turn-in. (And I mean, exactly straight :P Arcane Missiles etc will mess up the next part if they aren't straight!). For location, I put them mid way between the table and the fountain, just in front of the fountain. Try strafing them back and forth. If they all stay in line, you're good to go. A little time on the prep really helps when the fight starts.
Put the tank on the purple guy, facing your team so you can see them.
Put the pet on "stay" at the base of the table, in Passive mode.
Have everyone use the Green potion, the Tank uses the Purple potion.
Have the character with the quest run forward and trigger the event. Make sure to use just the forward/back keys. Don't steer, don't mouse look. You have enough time for the event to start to back up into position with the rest of the team.
Once the event starts, go all out against the purple guy. You have about 10 seconds of free DPS before anything more complicated happens. The green guy will then activate and run at your DPS team. At this point, I send my pet at the guy. Since the pet was "behind him" due to the position, he'll run back a little bit and face away from the team. This helps because Chain Reaction can really hurt an undergeared team. The pet will take very little damage from Chain Reaction. If he is still too close, strafe the team a little bit further from him and keep up the DPS.
Frye will then activate and now the "fun" starts. The best bet is to focus on what color beaker he is holding, because that's the color of cloud you'll need to avoid when he throws. If he throws Purple at the tank, ignore it. If he throws green at the DPS, ignore it. It was hard to learn this at first - but as other posters have stated he is unlikely to "overlap" clouds. Staying in a matching color is actually a good thing.
Once the main guy goes down, switch the tank to "green" and hit your follow key. Run for the first Green cloud you can see and get away from the Green guy if you can (this is where the pet tank helps, as it keeps him "busy"). You'll probably need an AoE heal or 2 at this point (I've found myself spamming it).
Now keeping your team on follow, move your main so that he is between your team and Fry. Just run around your team as Fry moves, staying close enough to your team that they don't step, they just rotate - this will keep him "in front" of the team. Don't worry about tanking him. Just stun him if you can, but other than that focus everything you've got on him. Watch for purple clouds at this point and start spamming AOE heals (you won't need mana once Frye is dead).
Every once in a while Frye will get a purple potion on your team - just run for the next green cloud. I've had problems with this though - since sometimes I have a sea of purlpe to run through... just run fast and use your instant heals if you can.
Once Frye is dead.... back your team up, grab the green guy with your tank (a good distance away). And fall asleep while you kill him.
With a good tank, and some good use of cooldowns, I've actually solo'd from Frye at 30% (the other guy at full). If you have a SS or Reincarnation, save that for when you have Frye dead, then pop it to take out the last guy.
Hope this helps :)

I've killed the guys 6 times a day since the event began. Lot of Abyss crystals, and I think everyone has the mask and pet. No rocket or heartbreaker =( Sucks the most overgeared A-hole on our server got it like the first day.
It's the Headless Horseman all over again for me, lol. But geez I even killed him more without luck on his mount.
Ah well, lol. At least I don't wipe anymore. If anyone is still having trouble be sure and make use of your environment. Ledges, crates, fountain, etc...

I gave up too earlier this week, my "mains" all got the pet/heartbreaker so I was moderately ok, just takes too long to get out there and do it all, and with such a low drop rate on the mount I just gave up.
One little tip, I parked two unused alts (a level 33 hunter and a warrior) at the summoning stone, so they could bring over my entire team in a few mins.

I hate being able to do something, then suddenly can't anymore especially going by the same strat. The last 5 times, I noticed the purple guy didn't stay on the tank. (Yes, everything was up on the paladin, righteous fury etc. my macro is the 969 that works on everythinng else.)
Very frustrating....just need 1 more necklace.

I hear ya, lol. Some days I feel like I am smoking hot using my team and can kill anything and then I wipe on some complete nonsense. Guess we all have our on days and off days.
This fight is difficult but I haven't wiped since the first day. Too bad the event is almost over =(
As a paladin you shouldn't have any problems holding aggro period. If I just touch a mob it gets and stays on me without issue. Get the +2% threat to your gloves enchant and make sure your slaves are specced into threat reduction if possible.
This fight you shouldn't be having THAT much trouble if you are drinking your cologne/perfume nuetralizers correctly. First have your master drink the purple and slaves drink green- face Hummel away from slaves while you dps him to hell. Have your master drink green once Hummel is dead and grab the green guy Baxter dps his ass- once he's dead the rest is cake staying out of puddles. Like I mentioned earlier make use of your environment. Spread your team out on the various elevated structures- fountain, crates, ledges.
But I guess it's all moot until next year no rocket for me this year :mad:

This fight you shouldn't be having THAT much trouble if you are drinking your cologne/perfume nuetralizers correctly. First have your master drink the purple and slaves drink green- face Hummel away from slaves while you dps him to hell. Have your master drink green once Hummel is dead and grab the green guy Baxter dps his ass- once he's dead the rest is cake staying out of puddles. Like I mentioned earlier make use of your environment. Spread your team out on the various elevated structures- fountain, crates, ledges.
But I guess it's all moot until next year no rocket for me this year :mad:
Yeah, I shouldn't have aggro issues w/ the paladin, I really don't know why I am lately. I do have Armsman as my glove enchant too.
I've mostly been able to keep the green seduced. That doesn't seem to be an issue. The purple guy gets loose. I really don't know why. I've most of the time been able to get him down and dead...though a few times, when hes gotten loose hes pissed all over my slaves, getting 2 before i can get him back under controll. The green guy, w/ everyone all on green cologne after purple drops (Slaves only take green) hardly do anything to my team. Where at first it was Frye (ping-pong) that was doing real damage....I take him down second.....thats what worked for me the 5 successful times.
I get one more bite at him tonight, my last toon needs a necklace of some kind, because sadly it is an upgrade for me.
Probably where part of my issue is(gear), things are up way too long.

2 for 2 so far. 3 more to go. 2 deaths then 1. Again losing the purple guy. If I try to taunt, Frye while purple is still up, I'm not getting purple back on me before he wipes my clothies. Green mosly stays seduce until I'm ready for him.
2 melee dps necks. I'll be happy if I can get 1 more of the caster ones for my 3rd warlock.
Edit: Lol, gpt me a rose fo my hair too...lol rrrrppp server:)
