[Exploit] EASY SKADI THE RUTHLESS (Utgarde Pinnacle)

[7itanium]

I was running Utgarde Pinnacle today.. and we came to Skadi The Ruthless-- Who can prove to be a pain in the ass at times because there is a lot going on at the same time.. and dome people are too dumb to know how to stay out of an AoE while picking up harpoons lol.

Anyway we came accross a little exploit for downing him exremely easily. and it also gives you free rep/exp as well!!

ENJOY!!!

STEP 1:
Start the boss fight and walk back into the doorway (not too far) To this spot


Just stand there and wait for the mobs to come to you... pick up the harpoons as normal because ur gonna need them

Eventually the mobs will stop coming completely... takes about 4 minutes

no more mobs ^^^^^


STEP 2:
Run all the way down to the end of the hallway where the boss is flying around on his drake. Reset the bossfight.. and all of the mobs will come running out of the door at once

Simply AoE the mobs down-- this is exremely easy now because there is no more fog to have to deal with and they drop like flies-- I took them down with a single Death and Decay on my tank.



STEP 3:
Once they are dead.. simply shoot the boss with the harpoon... down him and enjoy your loot and the rest of your instance!!




HOPE YOU HAVE FUN!!!

This is already known to be used to get 2 Heroic Achievements done for the Red Proto drake.
ut nicely described with the pictures, shows you have put some effort into it.

[Lodi Dodi We Loves the Skadi
Defeat Skadi the Ruthless in Utgarde Pinnacle on Heroic Difficulty within 3 minutes of starting the gauntlet event.
Difficulty: 4
The method used for this achievement is the same one used for My Girl Loves to Skadi All the Time. Harpooners spawn during the gauntlet event every other wave.
Your group can lazily kill wave after wave until each member loots one Harpoon. After they do, run out of the gauntlet room and the boss will reset.
Run back in quickly and get to the end of the hallway before the boss reappears. When you're ready, have someone run up to the boss to start the gauntlet.
AoE down all the mobs that spawn while everyone stands inside the room so as to avoid the boss' breath ability. Ignore the first time he passes but the second time
it says he's within range of the harpoons have everyone run out and shoot so he lands. Finish up the rest of the MOBs and DPS the boss down.
You will have a spare 45 seconds to a minute if done correctly. Two achievements all in one!

Tried this before. I can confirm it

[dmwpalpha]

can confirm it too, nice

[Gunzarles]

Theres actually another way to do this.
Start the boss.
run in to the room and wait for the boss to despawn.
Now you got like 10 seconds to run to the end and kill mobs
Happend for me by a mistake (Tank didnt get there in time)

[Ferag]

Yeah, this was posted before on MMOwned. This is just the way to get the achievements.

In case you didn't know, there's also a spot near the harpoon launchers, near the launchers to the right. It's either to the right of the far right launcher, or in between the far right one and the one beside it. Sorry if you don't understand.

my mate showed me this long time ago... but nice

[imcomingfou]

Very Nice, did this the other day to help my friend's get their Elder's achievement

i thought this was nerfed in 3.0.8, is it still working?

Yep.. just did it yesterday when I took the screenies

the other reason I like it is because it gives you double reputation

Yeah I didnt see that when I posted because that guide is a bit different. as it is explaining how to exploit the achievments for the drake.

I wasnt really referring to the achievment when I posted this.. just a fast way to Down skadi and get some free rep in the process.

My appologies for the repost though.. I hope this was still helpfull to some

[Alle38]

Was usefull, gonna try it next time I run there thanks
