    Hi guys, just thought I'd save people some of the problems I had when I first set out to get my dagger.

    I started at level 33, and as a rogue, soloing the Mr. Fallout was not the problem, but rather the quickest routes to him, safest places to pull.

    I have gotten so efficient that I can now solo him, get back down to him, pull him, before my evasion timer has reset (5 minutes).

    First off, invis to him (duh).  Take your first left, following the wall until you get to your 2nd big door.  The main thing to watch out for here are the irradiated troggs.  If you get into the greenish path they leave behind, it will DoT you, drop your invis.  Forget Vanish, as you'll be dotted.  Just be careful.  They won't see you if you are 30+ ever, and as long as you avoid their trail of green sick, you should be fine.

    After the main 2nd door, go through and veer right.  You shoudl come to a giant staircase.  You can drop invis here and run through the safe gnome area (they won't help you though, remember that).  Once through there, stealth up again and veer left into the fall out area.  Once in that main room, take a right and hug the wall until you come to basically the northeastern most corner.  Here is where you'll fight.  You will have to clear zero mobs.

    In that corner a) Fallout paths about every 2 mins b) the two mobs on either side of him are too far away to agro with him.

    When he paths by, I open up with a cheap shot and get a couple SSs in and then pull him back to the wall.  Don't use poison.  He isn't affected by it (and every time you reset instance it will be gone, which is annoying).  Pop evasion up.  Get five combo points and eviscerate.  Rinse repeat.  At 33 I don't need pots or thistle, but your milage may vary.  Make sure to not use kidney punch during Evasion or you are just wasting combo points.  I sometimes use Kidney toward the end if he is getting some lucky rolls, but have yet to need a pot.

    After he's done, loot your boots or your cane (as if the dagger will drop the first 10 times).

    Now you should have a 2nd account, but you don't have to.  I do.  Makes life easy so I don't have to annoy ppl (plus my wife plays on it).  Either way, invite someone to your group.  Make them group leader.  Disband.  Camp.  You should get the "You're not in this group's instance message" right as you are logging out.  If not, you've done something wrong.

    Log back in.  You'll be back at the top with about 3.5 minutes left on Evasion.  Just enough time to walk back down to Fallout and do it all again!

    I can kill him 6 times in a half-hour no problem, but then it tells me I can't do anymore instances for awhile.

    It's not bad gold either.  Cane sells for 86s, so you end up making on average 2-4g a half-hour while looking for your sweet weapon!  Hope it helps!

    Oh by the way, I'm not twinked at all (which is why I am camping him).  I'd imagine this could be done by a twinked 30 no problem, maybe lower (not sure though).

      I followed these instructions pretty much at lvl 30, except I found it easier to clear 1 mob before taking viscous. I used something along the lines of-

      CS > SS > SS > Evasion > SnD > SS > Evis > SS > Gouge > BS > Evis

      Killed him twice, he dropped the cane, then the dagger. I also had to use a healing pot about halfway through for each fight, but that shouldn't be a problem for any rogues because you all pickpocket, right?
