Battered Hilt solo farm.

[Zirekyle]

Just got nerfed. From a Blizz forum CM:

"Based on feedback we’ve been provided by players, we’d like to make you aware of a couple of changes we are applying to Icecrown Citadel: The Frozen Halls via in-game fixes. Firstly, we are increasing the drop rate of the Battered Hilt in all three wings of this Heroic five-player dungeon. We have seen a great deal of discussion about this item’s chance of dropping since the release of patch 3.3.0 and agree that it is currently too low. As a result, players should find greater accessibility to this item while running these dungeons, or while trading with other players who have it.

In light of this change, we are also removing the chance for the Battered Hilt or any other epic item to drop from the Skeletal Slaves in the Pit of Saron. The need to “farm” these creatures for the Battered Hilt should be reduced by our first in-game fix and will no longer result in a chance for epic loot or Battered Hilts.

You’re welcome to discuss these changes in this thread and provide us with any additional feedback you may have. Please refrain from creating additional threads about these in-game fixes at this time."

ya we can keep farming but if there increasing the drop rate im probably just going to wait for the fix i have been farming for days now and havent seen one when the patch comes im just going to get a group and farm it that way seems like its not worth any more of my time to try and get it now

I have a small improvement on prot pala. Run in, consecration, use holy wrath, kill adds, and HoJ the elite and run out while HoJ is on, if you're still looting you can use avenger's shield to interrupt him.
