    Important bit
    Lvl48 rogue.

    I've solo'd every elite quest upto know,even the supposedly 'hard' ones.And a 1 Vs 1 encounter is usually a walk in the park as you just stun lock them to death.But this really was HARD!

    The 3 main factors are his insane amount of HP.For melee people,his very high armour level.And the fact he hits hard.about 350 Dam normal,and 700 crit.Even though i dodged most of his attacks on my 3rd attempt,damage like that saps your HP away really quick.
    Oh and he also has a stun which he use's regularly.

    This is the only real hard elite quest i've ever found in azeroth,that is hard for most class's to solo and to be honest for how hard it is i would at least expect a blue,or even a really good green,but the rewards are totally rubish.The only good thing i found about them was they both vendor for around 1.5g and that's all their good for!

    quick run down of how bad it went
    First time i tried this was a complete failure.I stealth after accepting the quest and he saw straight through it.I carried on as best i could and vanished as it was going bad.

    Second time i tried i was bit more prepared as i knew he could see through my stealth.
    Accepted quest,stealthed,used prepartion,Cheapshot,backstab,hemo,gouge,BS,gouge,BS,kidney shot,gouge,BS.All was going well apart from after about 30sec i'd only took about 20% of his health off,so i bugged out,and came to check here.

    Read all about how hard it was on here,but decide as i knew a bit more and was properly prepared with a plan i could take him.I'd walked all over 'hard' elites before.

    So third try.ate a +12stam food buff,pulled out my defilers talisman and some stone staues and was ready to go.
    Accept quest,stealthed...well to cut a long story short i blew every CD i had,defilers talisman,heath potion,blind and bandage,double evasion using preparation.And i got my ass totally owned.

    I managed to take about 35% of his health of him and only had about 10% of mine left and was just about to vanish and give up when a really nice 48druid and 46warlock flew in a helped me out.

    Even though i'd kicked his ass a fair bit already it still took us another minute or so to get him down to the 25% to finish the quest.

    Summary
    Unless their are some nice people in the camp at the time,i wouldn't even bother trying this quest.The rewards are rubbish.And the only chance you could have of soloing it,unless your a OP lock :) is when your so high level the quest won't even be green.

    If you really want the 4.5k xp that bad,go kill some of the mobs outside the camp!


    P.S. if he disappears he takes 8 minutes to pop,i counted it as i helped the people who helped me,so wated for him to repop

      I could imagine that this could be really tough for melee classes, but as a shadow priest, I found a way.

      Accept the quest and immediately run towards the wagon east of you. I threw on SW:P and ran around the wagon reapplying it whenever needed. He runs at about the same speed as you so as long as you don't stop, you should be fine. But watch out, if you get too far around the wagon, he changes directions and comes at you. You can use this to your advantage if you are fast enough and stand exactly half way around the wagon and strafe back and forth making him constantly switch his direction and basically stand in place.

      At lvl 40 it took my about 5 minutes. Crappy rewards, but 6.9k xp so probably worth it if you can use this strat.

        I must commend Spanky66 on his excellant strategy for a lowbie shadow priest. :)

        My lvl 40 shadow priest made the quest available, and after two failings at the quest I came on here and did a word search for "priest" to find a good method. Just to reiterate: Accept the quest, then run straight to the little wagon just to the east of Mok. Start circling him around while throwing SWP on him; use VT for heals. If he gets too close and dazes you, use your fear. Buff yourself up any way you can (I only used Lesser Wizard Oil but it was enough).

        Took a grueling 5 minutes, 2 greater mana pots and 2 emergency fears, but it worked! The 6900 xp was great and the wand is a NICE upgrade for a quest reward!
