Manglemaw - still farmable. Hurry before another hotfix!

[Shyft]

This is quite simple. When you go back up into his room from the checkpoint, instead of blasting away as usual, continue running backwards and turn the corner as if you are backtracking to the next area. Once your character starts talking about how they feel the crown is close, go kill Manglemaw....aaaand voila. Loot.

Do not destroy the door and spawn manglemaw though. Run IMMEDIATELY around the corner and get your characters speech. That is the loot trigger. If you spawn him before then, you will not get loot still.

Blizzard...is going to be so mad at us. This is why we can't have nice things.

4 legendaries in 30 minutes sure. and 17 cartilages. try it yourself and report back if you dont believe me. as a dh vaulting, this adds like 2 more seconds on to my run. worth it.

He doesn't drop anything anymore
Killed him 20 Times now. No drop.
Did exactly as you said.
This was done on EU Btw.

[Shyft]

He doesn't drop anything anymore

i mean yeah, you're absolutely correct. *winkwink*

[Shinigami187]

Only worked ones and hasn't worked at all anymore so....

The thing is, you have to be around the corner/event has to be triggered BEFORE Manglemaw spawns.
If he spawns before the event, no loot. After the event, drop possible.

Thanks for clarifying that. I added more info to the orginal post so people understand a little better. Even still I can't wait to read all the "nope still nerfed" posts by idiots who don't follow directions.

[qaz87]

Yes it works if you follow the instructions above.
Thanks for sharing.

I lol'd.

But it will be hotfixed pretty fast anyway

[Zdanimal]

Works, thanks! I found he's coming out the door regardless and it seems I need to teleport to the turn asap to get the text before he auto comes through door. Unless I'm doing something wrong, but 2nd time cartalidge and a leg!

[crabsnz]

Thanks for this, already set up bot to farm this in t6, will post results after 24 hours.

He has been very bot friendly in the past

Are you doing this on Campaign or Adventure mode?

It works, and I'd say it should be moved to elite before it's patched.

[Voli]

[jaibo]
