Kael'Thas The Eye- lv 85 Feral Druid Solo Guide

[Inquisitor121]

I tried soloing this also but seems impossible cuz my gear kinda sucks and i have bulwark up aswell once he rezzes all his advisors... So i can for the room where al'ar is to jump down and heal up but once you're in mid air, Thaldred seems to somehow teleport me to his location and bang me up well... I wouldn't recommend trying this unless you got rly awesome dps (with flasks, food etc)...

[Willyum22789]

@Inquisitor121 Define awesome gear? I did this in t11-12 i believe. You can get better gear w/ the new dungeons. It is FAR more difficult if your in pvp or laacking some gear of course. But jumping down the ramp will cause thaldred to tp you to him as that happens when he knocks u up into the air.

Not sure if u sit in bear trying to dps, but go cat and lifebloom/thorns yourself before engaging the weapons. It helps a good amount.

[Inquisitor121]

@Willyum22789 Well my ilvl is 368 and when I tried soloing I had food, flasks etc... I'm also fully gemmed and enchanted aswell... It would be a hell of a lot easier to try soloing him with about 380 ilvl and the polearm from dw... I only managed to get weapons down once in time and then i went to the Al'ar room and I think Thaldred launched my all across the room lol... Anyways, my point, this encounter is easier if you have good gear... Not sure I can pull it off with mine

[Willyum22789]

@Inquisitor121 The flask food and pot goes a long way... i still use them just to speed up the kill and i am currently ilv 396.

Dont jump off alar platform to heal, kite them. the hardest part is the 3-4 remaining advisors honestly. Get that and p1 kael'thas and a lucky alar might be yours.

[Majestyk16]

laughed so hard at "kt puts his nikes on" Thanks for the vid, bout to go try again!

[Peppermynthe]

I'm 376 or so ilvl, altho my stuff is reforged for tanking- I'm having a problem bursting the weapons down. The farthest I got was with the bulwark still up, and I changed to Sanguinar to kill him, then was unable to heal up to finish the bulwark off and start the rest. Usually there are a few weapons still up. Any tips? I am tigers fury -> berserk -> swipe spamming with the healing mace targetted.

[Willyum22789]

@Peppermynthe erm i dont remember my ilvl when i recorded this but i think ~t11 gear cuz i see my tier wings

Currently, i dont berserk the weapons down but i am far more geared now, ~ 395. Bererk swiping w/ the mace target should kill all of them except the bulwark which will have to be single targeted down. Remember to interrupt the healing casts he does.Other then that, try thorns before they reach you.

[Willyum22789]

@Willyum22789 If all fails, w8 until you get a better weapon for bigger swipes or reforge to optimize cat deepz.

[Diropa7]

How are you handling Kael's Mind Control? Im a hunter that can do it "Normal" way, but i dont really like it, and since i suck at soloing stuff i think this tactic would be much easier even as a hunter :)

[Willyum22789]

@Diropa7 You dont get mc'd if you are the only player "tank" that kael can hit... pets are consider players. So if you got ur pet tanking, you will always get mc'd. Umm you can lookup a huner vid of soloing kt but i believe you can Los when kt emotes "Obey me" or other similar mc mechanic

[Syphun68]

Nice strat. I'm workin on leveling a bear/kitty for s&g's so this will def help pass the time. Question though, what is the name of the mod you use above your character bar that shows your debuffs and combo points? Thats a perfect placement for how i have my ui set up. Id rather have it there instead of in a bar config like dot timers. Thanks!

[Gegi1992]

Just did it again today, butt i changed the strat a bit.

I killed sanguinar, taladred and Telonicu right behind keal's door, and pulled the mage to the entry-area of the instance. After the weapon-phase, i equipped the staff and nuked down the mage, so i could easily fight the whole phase with my main-weapon(no fireballs, no long-duration cc).

Also you should mention that you can Out-range the fireballs. So if he casts pyroblasts you can run away to gain about 10 seconds free for heal.

[Willyum22789]

@Gegi1992 Well my gear changed enough, that i get ~ 1 pyroblast phase from Kael if everything works out and the 4 advisors take about 2 minutes. The stun and fears are gona be annoying, only reason I killed the shield guy first since his cc isn't avoidable besides los. You cannot los the pyroblasts as it has a very far range and goes through walls. The normal fireballs he casts are los'able which i do mention @ 11:15

[Gegi1992]

@Willyum22789

The problem i had with los'ing the Fireballs is, that its a bit hard to manage, beside avoiding fireblast. just wanted to give an alternative way for ppl who got problems with that.

Ur the master, i wont challange you ;)

[Willyum22789]

@Gegi1992 Haha naw... that los firebal @11:15 was me at a panic state honestly LOL

I didnt know wtf to do and i thinkn my interrupt was down. So i panic'd and ran away.

[flinkder]

Thanks for the upload m8,been w8ing a lot of time for a feral solo kael guide:P

[Gegi1992]

Hey there! Great vid tho! Just got my first solo-KT today thanks to your vid :)

Im from Austria so my english may be a lil hard to understand... sorry for thir. But i got a lil hint for you, which i found out while farming him with my paladin-mate.

When u fight against KT himself, you can change ur weapon to main right after that strange white "shock"(looks like shaman's thunderstorm imo). that allows u to place a "hard" rip-dot that ticks with full dmg, be4 changing back to staff.

Thx again! :)

[mehkra]

In p4 I suggest tanking him in the arches/doors just up the ramps instead of where you did it. The way you do it he will start casting Pyroblast halfway down the ramp and that makes it much more annoying to move him to a better position to LoS his fireballs.

Thanks for the video. It helped a bunch!

[Willyum22789]

@mehkra Yup my strat has changed a bit since my first down. Most of what you say makes sense besides the fireball thing... because if you spend too much time jus plainly losing, you extend the phase way too long. At my point, I get about 2-3 pyroblast phases typically, and i push him to 50% alrdy.

[Willyum22789]

@mehkra I dont think the defeating which adivsor first, besides Sanguinar really matters. as both the mage and engineer ccs you. So its rly bad to swap weapons at that point. You can refresh the infernal protection as long you cast heals.

[mehkra]

@Willyum22789

Infernal Protection won't refresh if it's already active.

The stun from remote toy is entirely random. If you already have conflag on you you can swap weapon (you won't get CC'd) and refresh the buff because she won't conflag again any time soon.

You don't really lose any damage LoSing the fireballs. You only lose a couple of auto swings at worst and you avoid spending 25 energy which is worth WAY more damage. LoSing is the high dps strat.

[Willyum22789]

@mehkra O ya jus realized another reason (while i was doing KT) i prefered him further towards the entrance of TK, when you hit 50%... u dash / stampeding roar and keep up with him as he runs bac to his spawn spot to activate the next phase... with my gear I can push him to 1-10% (just rememebr to swap bac ur main weapon)

[mehkra]

@Willyum22789 Thing is that the extra time you get to dps him when he is running back is the same amount of extra time you get to dps him instead of waiting for him to get to you. Well, minus him pausing in the middle of the ramp to pyroblast.

The net effect on the kill time is really +-0 seconds and you get him in a better position to start p4 with (you also don't start with a phoenix already spawned)

[mehkra]

Third thing. I used a macro like this:

/cancelaura Infernal Protection

I can decide myself when to refresh the buff since it can't be reapplied while still active. This way I don't run the risk of having it expire right as I'm going to get pyroblasted because I can control the uptime better myself.

Fourth. Don't interrupt his fireball, it's a waste of energy. Always LoS the fireballs. You can't LoS the pyroblast though.

[mehkra]

This video helped me formulate a tactic for defeating this boss myself. I did however make some adjustments.

For one it's easier if you pull Sanguinar even further away towards Al'ar's room than you did. That way it's incredibly simple to kill him before the other advisors reach you in p3.

In p3 I killed Sanguinar first, then Telonicus, then Thaladred and last Capernian. Killing Telonicus second is because I want to get rid of toy so I can safely equip the infuser to get the damage redux.

[DERICKBLAIR4]

very nice kill, did you use straight cat dps gear? Tier 11 or tier 12 piece bonuses? pvp pieces? tank gear?

[Willyum22789]

@DERICKBLAIR4 I think i was 2p t11 2p t12 cat geared at that time when I did KT

[M4xima]

way easier on the hunter ... but this is really nice

[Willyum22789]

@M4xima haha anything is ezier to solo on a hunter or dk

[Cannie1986]
