here is coord by frist82, Score 0.15
The Drillmaster is located just South of Hellfire citadel.
We took him out with two tanks trading off aggro so one tank could bandaid. Make sure you clear all adds in the area since the Drillmaster has an attack that sends you flying through the air. You seem to lose aggro when he uses this attack also so be prepared.
2 rogues, me 63 and another 62 just killed him, he's stunlockable, just make sure you gouge/kidney shot when he starts to cast his whirlwind or whatever and it's pretty easy, if you get knocked back into the mobs, just vanish and run back to him
good luck, he's not that hard (for those of u that dont have coords, if you follow the path of glory all the way west and go through the little gated thing he's to the left)
Drillmaster is 63 Elite. Soloed with my 65 NE Hunter. Had to trap and bandage my kitty 3/4 of the way through the fight, but, had no problems taking him down.
Nice quest. 12.6K XP, 1000 HH rep, 5g40s and a blue chest piece that sells for 4g80s.

As has been said, make sure you clear the area first. Also be careful he resets if walk back towards the building. I had him at half life and reset, and starts evading but still doing damage. So take him towards Honor Hold, where he can't evade. Another warning, if you walk away when he starts his whirlwind he chucks you away, possibly onto respawns.
I did use 2 major mana pots, 1 major healing pot and lots of bandages while he was stunned. I used BoW. Fight took about 6 minutes i think. He has just under 21k Health and deals about 300 dmg per hit, he crit me for 750 at one time. I have abt 120 dps, +250 spell dmg and +320 healing. soloable? by InnerSanctumz, Score -0.75

I, a 60 Affliction Lock, double-teamed him with a 60 Frost Mage but this method should be effective for many groups.
There's a rock outcropping above one of the huts he patrols (around 48.56). Drop down onto that outcropping and wait for him to path away from the hut. Inside the hut there is a caster. Target him and drop him as fast as possible. If you take too long to kill him the drillmaster may get to within aggro range. After killing the caster check to make sure that the Drillmaster isn't coming back towards you. Jump to the West and run along the mountain side to the wall of the citadel. When the Drillmaster is clear pull the orc against the citadel wall across from the hut. Now you're ready to take down the Drillmaster! I sent my pet in first and then we both went to town. Be warned, he hits hard (me once for 640 and the mage once for 511) and has a strong knockback. Drop all of the DPS you have on him and he should go down pretty easily. As a warlock specific option, you could try micromanaging fear and curse of recklessness. I used this method when helping a hunter friend and it worked pretty well. You've got to be careful to avoid the potential adds to the East, though. Duoed as 59 frost mage and affliction lock in crappy gear. by Xymi, Score 0.17
I am not proud of this solution but hey, it works.
Go to 48,57, close to the edge overlooking a fairly steep drop. At the bottom will be a tent and, after a respawn, Zurok the Drillmaster. Target him, send your pet, get the aggro and pull your pet back up. Zurok will follow, maybe bring one mob but you can lock down/finish it off on the way up. From that point, just attack from a distance whenever possible, be sure to NOT get between Zurok and the edge (he has a knockback spell that will...well, knock you back...over the edge, down the cliff and that's never fun without a Netherweave Bungiebelt.) Freeze/lock/root in place and pound away from a distance, he is a fairly easy kill (for an Elite). Take care to avoid getting knocked into other NPCs, stay focused on Zurok if you do, keep the pets healthy and voila, +1000 rep in Honor Hold +12K XP (ymmv) and piece of plate armor that sells for 4.8G

1. Head north of Honor Hold.
2. There's a little valley slightly to the left that goes down into the valley/gorge area. Take that. You'll run into some mobs (63ish). Can take them out one by one. 3. Head west/to the left. 4. You'll be at the underside of the citadel. Head towards the back. Boss man is back there. 5. As he walks back into the small area, pull all the mobs around 1 by 1. 6. You'll see a tall wall right in this area. This is where you want to pull the boss. Have tank keep back to the wall b/c the boss will kick you very, very, very far. The wall will stop this and you can run back and don't have to worry about pulling aggro from other mobs. That's it. Did this as 61Warrior + 60Warrior + 60 Druid. We died once by not clearing the area well enough. Guy is a 63E and he's pretty tough. Take 3 if you can.

Just solo'd as a 60 Rogue. It was a 62 elite. I cleared 3 guys (the caster in the hut, and the two grunts walking around the big middle shaded area.) I just kept stunning him as much as possible. What hurt the most was his whirlwind. You gotta at least gouge him when he does that, or else it's gonna really hurt. I had to use a potion, blind+bandage, and whipperroot(sp?). I only have about 3700hp, and I was about to get owned right at the end (he only had about 400hp left, and I had about 200hp) when he knocked me back with his whirlwind, but luckily Cheat Death saved me :D btw I had cripple 2 on main hand, instant poison on offhand.

i soloed this as a 62 hunter.. (hybrid) the name is Trayton look it up to see my spec (argyos server).. anyway FOR HUNTERS there is a cliff that leads to a smaller cliff on the left side of the entrance into the reg. ramps side of the citadel drop down there, aggro that warlock ( or neophyte) i think thats in the RIGHT tent, pull him to up to where u are... kill him and do the same thing to the drill master when he walks to the tent the warlock was at.
you may ALSO want to take out the shattered hand guy that is the closest to the initial hill u are on before u drop down to the smaller one... he does call out for help and i aggroed him as well. if things get hectic.. just freeze trap heal pet and bandage... i wouldn't recommend using stings as u may need to trap while the sting is still in effect. I did this and soloed it frist try hope this helps.. for hunters...

Easy with a party we had for citidel...now i get beautie chest for warrior
How is it one can solo this at 60 when the quest isn't available till 62? I tried to share with a 60 and couldn't.
Anyway, I soloed this at 64 plus one level bar full, so just turned 64. Key was to kill all the guys around before him. Then take him on without worry of other NPC helping him. As a warrior I have low dps so it was a tough battle. I had a strength and health buff and when he kicked me back I bandaged with with Heavy Neatherweave. His kick back is a disadvantage in this respect becuase he gave me time to get more then half the neather weave in. Be carefull to not be kick back out of the area so let him kick you between the walls by getting his back against the wall. Good luck, So as hunter solo would be without your pet, otherwise its I did it with my pet. That's as good two doing or at least 1 3/4. Re: Drill the Drillmaster [10937] by Brokenlove17, Score 0.00

I have to agree that he's an easier solo than stated in this thread. I did this solo as a 62 rogue. Just kept dodge up whole time with ghostly strike/trinket, then evasion, then preparation/evasion. Guy barely touched me the whole time, and the extra dodges ran my combo points off the chart anyway so I easily kept 5-pt Rupture on him.

I guess this is Alliance only huh?
Soloable as a 61 boomkin (wearing a mix of blues and greens including some cloth). Make sure you clear the area around him, and have your back to the wall. Use roots, and pop your trees early. Moonfire, insect swarm, and wrath until roots breaks then reapply roots. Use barkskin before popping out of form to heal) Rinse and repeat. Not that hard a fight.
