Comentario de Siirenias

Compiled from the achievement comments section:

Nightmareic: Hunter: Wait for him to cast Wild Barrage and pop a speed increase and start strafing in all different directions. I used my nitro boost and ran around.

I found that the speed boost is not necessary. If you've been raiding or simply did the quests to get here with no trouble from similar abilities, then you'll have NO problem here. He's even slower than the giant's boulder throw.

Edradred: Also I am personally finding the hunter part extremely infuriating. I have killed about twenty of them, and only two have had the ability, and the two that had it only casted it when I was swamped by sentinels and other hounds. Great.

I'm surprised that this is true. It took me a few hunters to find one with barrage.

Comentario de evey

I had to kill around 20 of them as well. 4 or so of them had the barrage.

Although speed-boosters are not completely necessary, they do help A LOT. Avoiding the shadows didn't really help for me either, I avoided them and still got hit. o.O

Some helpful tips:
-If you can, try to kill the hound before dpsing the hunter, or it could daze you while you're trying to run around from the Wild Barrage.
-Using Swiftness Potions to increase your speed may help as well.
-If avoiding the shadows doesn't really work for you, try strafing side-to-side/around in many different directions.

ok i have a possible theory...

i had the same hunter after trying a few, and decided to try each of the different npc's near lava and not near. when not near, i couldnt get them to do their special ability for achievement... when i was near lava, they did, although sometimes waited perhaps 1 minute or more...so it may well be possible that its not the fact 'some' do and 'some' dont cast the ability, but perhaps your positioning of being near lava or not that made the difference?

Take the sentinel for example, he says 'how would you like to go for a swim' when he picks you up. how can u go for a swim if your not near any lava to swim in?

when i got the hunter achieve, it was near lava, did NOT cast within the first 10 secs, nor even 20, but it did it about a total of 4 times after having adds fail me, and not running properly... (read on for my solving of failing to run properly :P)

i also believe he throws the arrows/shadows appear where you have previously been, so running randomly wont help, run in a huge S shape WITHOUT going back on a previous path u run, and you should be ok.

These mobs are MCable. Not all of the have the ability when MC'd, but interestingly the ones who DO have the ability don't always use it.

I think it will work to duel somebody, then MCing the Hunter to force him to use his ability on them :D

Comentario de 798406

I can confirm it does happen when he is not near lava although it does seem more frequent perhaps. Anyways I pulled hunter with avenger's shield, odd thing is his pet glitched and reset aggro, as soon as that happened he barraged. So maybe he barrages out of anger because is pet is dead? I personally think it is somewhat random.

Comentario de greywolfsage

Also, just to clarify, you have to wait for the Barrage to finish.

Won't credit you if you kill him early.

Comentario de bratmonkey

wild barrage is not exclusive to being near/in the lava.

you do not have to kill the lavawaker hunter in order to get the achievement.

when you see him start to channel the barrage, simply run back and forth until it is over. When he is finished you will have that requirement fulfilled, and you can then decide whether or not you want to kill it too.

Comentario de Esploratore

I never tried this seriously, so I only got the wild barrage like twice a day and tried to avoid it, but always got hit twice at least.

So, today, I decided to get this part of achievement, started looking for hunters, and I have to confirm what someone here said: like 15-20 hunters killed to get 2 wild barrages!

Apart from this, on the first attempt I got hit by ALL the hits (wasn't ready at all), on the second one I wasn't actually ready, as soon as I killed the charhound he started with his barrage, so I decided to try anyway, even if I thought I'd have failed, ran away without even using heroic leap (warrior jumping ability) or potions, and when I was quite far I turned in circle on the right, and to my big surprise he didn't hit me.

So, yeah, in my opinion the hardest thing here is that there's like 10% if not less to get one with the ability.

Comentario de hobobob099

I noticed the only way I could get barrage to work was if I had the hunter be shot into the lava while he had his dog still alive. Now this didnt work all the time. I say it worked 3 out of 5 times for me.

Comentario de MASDERCHEEF

can anyone confirm whether or not Deterrence works with "avoiding" Wild Barrage?

Comentario de Zeddica

Please note that Ice Block'ing through his Wild Barrage will not award the achievement.

Comentario de Verdice

If you screw up the Wild Barrage, you can use the steam vents (or just good ol' fashioned running like hell) to reset the Hunter and try again. :)

Also don't sit around patiently for your hunter to use it. He either will in the first 6-7 seconds of the fight or he won't at all.

Comentario de eddu

It seems that they only cast Wild Barrage when you are on the quest Flamewakers of the Molten Flow and don't have the quest listed as "completed"

Comentario de Robbie

If you are wondering what achievement people are talking about it is:
'Master of the Molten Flow'

Comentario de Ganic

I am 90% sure that Wild Barrage is actually entirely luck-based.

I spent about an hour running around fighting Hunters and developed a pretty good intuition on how to handle Barrage and by the end of the hour, I was able to visibly dodge the entire barrage, but despite not touching a spear nor shadow or even after running 60+ yards away, I'd still inevitably take one or two hits from it.

It seems to me like the animations, including the airborne spears and the shadows on the ground, have nothing to do with actually dodging the attack and earning the achievement.

I tried every strategy mentioned across multiple sites, including wowhead, and even when I visibly never intersected with a spear or shadow or even let a shadow get between me and the Hunter or myself to get between a shadow a Hunter, I'd still get one or two hits in the combat log.

So infuriating.

Comentario de Behelich

Commonly misspelled as 'Flamewalker Hunter.'

Comentario de zesilo

After trying to get the god damn achievement for an hour, I think I figured it out.
The yellow ones seem to ALWAYS have the Wild Barrage(unless I just got lucky and encountered 4 yellow ones in a row all having the spell), and it usually activated after i killed the charhound, let him attack me for a bit, then hit him with melee and he jumped backed.
Once this happened (he jumped back and started wild barrage) I would simply hold "W" and tap "Q" and "E" in a circle around the hunter!

Oh, and if you are wondering where these guys are, they are underneath the Front, when you go up the fiery path to the left and drop down!

Good luck!

Comentario de Sabretann

Just run in a circle arround him, what seems to work for me every time is to go in a left turn...

Comentario de Strigina

I spent 20 minutes trying to force these hunters to start barrage. Then I read, you must dmg him first... -.- But worked perfectly, he started it immediately...

Comentario de forestsage

You CAN get down there if you did the other side quests. Let yourself die to the nearest flames near the hole/platform. While dead you will be able to fall through the platform, so walk to edge and go through/jump. As soon as you start falling rez. If you don't have a slow fall ability you'll die again but this time just fall to the bottom.

Comentario de TheDru

i've come to the conclusion that this is impossible at level 100. my hunter can be stark naked and just punch one and kill it.

Comentario de VijoPlaysOnYT

Little tip if you're not 85: Take of all your gear and jump down to where the hunters are. Then rezz at the Spirit Healer. Now kill off the Char Hound of the hunter and hit the hunter a bit (someone stated it was ~60%). Now some of them will use Wild Barrage (some can, some can't). Just wait for quite some time, they'll use it eventually. Others described already how to easily dodge the Barrage itself.

Edit: Fixed a typo.

tl:dr - get Resurrection Sickness if you're level 100 (or one-shotting the Flamewaker Hunter), then punch one in the mouth and run directly away from him. Or her...

Got this today (10/3/15) as a level 100 prot pally with the added bonus of a decent repair bill. If you're level 100, even running nekkid will likely drop these guys with one auto-attack (mine was doing 10k+ with all gear in bags and no buffs). Solution: Resurrection Sickness. Stand in the lava until you die, release, then rez at the angel and POOF! you are now doing less damage than it takes to kill them in one shot.

Ran around for a couple of hours taunting and waiting, trying multiple distances, pushing them into the fire, killing their dog, NOT killing their dog, etc., but they wouldn't barrage (even when I damaged them means other than melee, such as Seal of Righteousness) until I killed myself and whacked them in the face once without killing them instantly.

pro-tip that's already been given elsewhere: just run directly away from the Flamewaker Hunter when they start the barrage and they'll miss. No need to do figure eights or zig-zag or circles around them, just run directly away.

Comentario de Igzy

After quite some weeks trying to get the Maestro de La Corriente de Magma associated with these guys, I figured it out. As a lvl 100 feral druid, completely naked i would one shot these guys. I tried everything, knockbacks, faerie fire, sitting and let them wail on me for 10 minutes. And couldnt find any priest that has the area unlocked that was wiling to help me. Then one day I was rushing through the quests and low and behold I did damage to them..... I noticed I had a thorns spell cast on me. Unfortunately this killed the hunter and expired. I racked my brains trying to find how I got this spell.

It was cast by one of the Hyjal Protectors while doing the quests in Sertheria's Roost. It does 57 damage per hit, and last ten minutes.

I rushed the next time I got this spell to the flamewakers, at 35% I clicked off the buff and the Hunter used barrage. That's it. Color had nothing to do with it.

updated: figured out where I got the thorns buff

Comentario de 302323

Easy way for the ach:
1: if you try it on lvl 100 u need Res Sickness
2: put your weapon to your bag
3: pull the hunter and kill the hound
4: interrupt the throw ability (and run away from the hunter, else he begin melee) and the hunter must cast the barrage
5: run and you get the ach

Comentario de Wynadorn

Just did the achievement, To me it seemed that they'll do the barrage only if you have them below 100% hp (90% is fine) and have auto-attack enabled while in melee range (you can face the wrong way to avoid damaging him).
You'll notice them using disengage way more if you do have auto-attack enabled.

To avoid killing them in 1 hit you can either use a (cancel it with Esc) or get Resurrection Sickness

Comentario de Viate

If you are level 100, and don't want to have to go through the hassle of resurrection sickness, using the ground flame AoE from a nearby shaman also works to damage them. It does count as you damaging them, because you will be able to loot them if they die from it.

Comentario de Rharsia

I struggled to get him cast the Barrage, but after countless tries and reading many theories of how this works, me and a friend of mine managed to get him to cast it.
Here's what we did in few quite simple steps.

1) one of us got ressurection sickness
2) look for a place where were also other NPCs alongside with Hunter
3) cast an AoE ability, dmging all the NPCs in the area
4) kill his dog
5) and finally we waited for him to throw, throw, throw his spears and waited
6) eventually he'll cast the Barrage

If he manages to hit you (as he did me, more times that I'm willing to admit), DO NOT KILL HIM, he'll eventually cast the Barrage again.
If you have a friend doing the achievement too, just let him taunt the Hunter and wait for Barrage again

Also there were 2 Hunters, one of them did cast Barrage from time to time, and a second one whose dog wasn't killed right at the beggining, he did not cast Barrage a single time.

It seems that Barrage is triggered by AoE abilities and killing the dog.

Comentario de ApocalypticDrew

As Zesilo stated, the yellow ones tend to have a higher chance of having the ability. Also keyboard turning and running forward in a circle does in fact make the ability super easy to avoid. The problem is not 1-shotting the hunter to make him cast the ability as you have to melee him for it to trigger. After hours of struggling how to get this guy to cast barrage, I finally figured it out. The best way that I found to do this is to jump in the lava and kill yourself, then accept res sickness, unequip all of your armor (trinkets, rings, weapon and such), run back and find a yellow one. Punch the Charhound to death, then punch him once. This should trigger the attack if it he has it, and if not then simply equip your weapon and kill the mob (At 100, you should be able to kill the mobs with nothing but a weapon equipped with res sickness.) I hope this helps someone so they do not struggle as long as I did.

Comentario de Wolfbride

Level 110 BM Hunter.

So, I tried everything mentioned here and none of it worked. Then, I tried this other method and it worked like a charm four times on four different days. I didn't want to share it until I was sure it worked every time. Do you have the Soft Foam Sword toy? If so, this will be super easy.

Hit the Hunter with the toy, watch his life drop down to around 10% and then run. Does he cast Wild Barrage? If not, kill him. Move to another one. Do it again. I did this and found the right hunter within two or three of them. I use this toy for a lot of achievements that I'm usually too overpowered for. This one and Fruit Basket are my go-to toys for getting achievements (Fruit Basket is great for aggro. I used it for the King of Spider Hill Achievement and multiple dungeon and raid achievements where I needed to trigger the fight but didn't want their health to drop).
