She's really money for a lot of fights; there are a few different strats for Celestial Tournament battlers that utilize her, but due to limitations you can only use her once. UNLESS you have more than one, but the fucking camp to just get one makes me never want to do it again. A second would really be handy though. =(
I know it's cheesy, but I ran a level 1 orc on the 2 RP servers (no merged zones!) to the spawn point in borean tundra and just checked it a couple times a day for a few days until I got it. I never thought to go back and try to get another one.

Got relatively lucky with mine; I simply put all the spawn points on Tomtom, and flew across all. Spotted one visiting a bit over a dozen of them, grabbed, done.

If you get her, make sure she doesn't have Unholy Ascension slotted (use that popular pet battle addon). If she does, leave, join again.

The first time I saw her, she suicided on me

But that was only with 10 mins of looking. I found her again after another day of doing a 10 minute check. I spent maybe 30 minutes total hunting her.

I think you can alt+f4 out of the game and come back and she "resets". But I don't know for sure. I saw that posted on a wowhead comment and meant to try it.

Rolled a DK on moon guard for shits and giggles. Really nice playing with tons of people everywhere, even if some of them are weird.

Worst thing though is the fucking Brazilians in LFD. Jesus fucking christ. Every single one of them is a healer/tank combo and if I don't tank (which I really don't want to, I want to dps and relax) I get stuck with these motherfucking mouthbreathers who don't speak english and don't know how to play.

Any suggestions for doing iron dwarf medium rare? i cant think of anything that will do damage to the guardians without one shotting them, even punching them is a one shot

I think it's actually easier if you can aoe one shot them. You only need to kill them while the breath debuff is on, which lasts a second or so. Just time your aoe to hit right after the breath cast and you'll get credit even if your aoe does the kill shot.

The vehicle scales based on ilevel so you could experiment with taking gear off if this doesn't work.

i think its bugged as well, i did it on my rogue recently and while fan of knives does kill all the dwarfs in one shot (while the burning debuff is on from the breath) the achievement only counted 4-5 dead each time so i had to run off the edge and do the fight 5 times to get all 25 dead.

normally i just kill dwarfs until all 4 harpoons are ready to launch then i run around until i had 25 of the right type of iron dwarfs. bring down razorscale and then position in the front and wait till the breath. It's extremely time consuming but since you dont have to kill all 25 in the same type of encounter you can just continually reset it.

Negative. They only have to die while the 1 second Flame Breath debuff is on them. You can get the kill shot during debuff and it counts.
Yeah just doubling-down on this. I tried to get this last week without reading comments first, and let her slowly whiddle them down with breath, doing ALL the damage. Took multiple breaths, but she did finally kill then, and I got a whopping 0 credit.

Badly described achievement is badly described. You gotta kill them while the debuff is on.

Yeah, you need to tag them at some point for kill credit. That was a problem I had when I did it (along w/ accidentally killing them), but I didn't know you could kill them with the buff on. Took 3 rounds of resetting to do it, and was annoying as hell.

Text is fine, we're just having problems due to overleveling. Pretty sure killing them ourselves w/ buff on as a way to get credit wasn't intended, but the buff is probably the mechanism used to grant credit for the achievement.

The hell? I don't know if anyone mentioned it but you can now buy Crystallized Fel (the item from archi that upgrades ring) for 1250 Valor from one of the vendors in Tanaan. Well shit, that's neato.

It's not bugged, never has been. It's just a tiny little failure to RTFQL.

Defeat 25 Dark RuneGuardianDwarves with Razorscale's Flame Breath.

It only counts the Guardians, not the other misc Dwarves during the fight.

If you are capped on your upgrades already, yea.

Otherwise, you need to sacrifice 5 +5 ilvl upgrades for one +3 ilvl upgrade.

I switched from paladin to shaman a couple months ago and am upgrade capped but have a 738 ring. It's nice for me!
