Comentario de Vesena

I expect this quest triggers a new Boss for Shadowfang Keep during the Love is in the Air holiday (Feb 11-16, 2010).

Comentario de Jzc136

The previous quest requires lv 78, but this one only requires lv 75?
Im guessing from previous experience (Brewfest & Hallow's End) that the minimum level requirement to summon/fight the Boss is probably lv 75...

Two drops from him:

Choker of the Pure Heart
BoP
Neck
+65 Strength
+93 Stamina
Req level 80.
ilevel 226
Improves crit rating by 36.
Improves hit rating by 45.

Winking Eye of Love
BoP
Neck
+63 Stamina
+43 Intellect
Req level 80.
ilevel 226
Increases spellpower by 74.
Improves crit rating by 41.
Restores 21 mana per 5 sec.

It appears they are just renamed versions of the Emblem of Conquest necks, so I presume the other three will be the Agi/Stam/ArP/Crit neck, the Stam/Str/Def/Dodge/Hit and the Int/Stam/spellpower/haste neck.

Comentario de Unbelievr

Two more

Vile Fumigator's Mask
BoP Cloth Head
236 Armor
Use: Sprays an enemy with vile fumes, incapacitating it for 30 sec. Any damage caused will revive the target. (20 Min Cooldown)

Forever-Lovely Rose
Head

Both rares and pretty cool look :P

All the dropping necks seem to be the same as the Conquest Emblem Necks, just renamed.

Comentario de Unbelievr

Boss is fairly simple. You get two potions which neutralize either Cologne (green stuff on floor) or Perfume (pink).
During the fight lots of suicide-bombing apothecaries with ~500hp will run to you, explode and deal about 2k damage.
There are three "bosses" to handle, where one of them isn't really tankable due to sudden aggro resets. All deal either cologne or perfume-damage as an AoE, but the untankable one deals both types by throwing vials at the floor with pink/green damage. Deals about 2k dmg per tick.

When all bosses are down you can loot Hummel for a quest item, an epic, and sometimes a few rares. 3manned this without problems with decently geared healer/tank, swapping out dps for better chance on loot.

Comentario de waggler

Toxic Wasteling is a companion pet that is a rare drop. Rare quality BoP. Looks like a little ooze.

EDIT: Awesome tooltip :)

Comentario de doomdoom

The boss can only be done once a day unlike coren who can be done twice when you first hand in the quest.

Tactics i use are as follows;
All use cologne neutraliser at the begining and kill apothecary hummel whilst avoiding purple clouds, green ones dont matter.
When hummel is dead use perfume neutraliser and kill the boss with a purple bubble(forgot his name) avoid green clouds, purple clouds nolonger matter
Now there should only be one left, this time do not switch neutralisers and simply nuke him, once again avoid green clouds and ignore the purple ones.

For the small adds we ignored them unless they got caught in aoe

Group set up was
Paladin dps (was using concecrate to lessen the number of adds).
Tree druid,
Enhance shaman,
Fury warrior (me, using whirlwind and cleave to deal with small adds),
Warrior tank (using shockwave and thunderclap to kill adds)

Its also worth noting that the begining of the fight is organised chaos and you could get a little lost if you dont pay attention.

Edit: just noticed when you enter the instance the bubbles each one has is random so you may need to use the opposite neutralisers as described.

Comentario de LordVarbaro

Toxic Wasteling minipet rare drop.

Comentario de 344422

The Heartbreaker (rare)
Use: This strange experimental device was meant to burst the target's chest cavity in a spray of hot gore. Instead it induces a brief but pitiful display of miserable, wracking sobs.
1 min cooldown.

(Basically it's a single target annoyance gadget!)

edit: Actually it causes 1 min "Heartbroken" debuff so it's actually useful for the event, if I remember the event correctly.

edit2: Using it on opposite faction only breaks your own heart, not theirs but it does flag you for pvp.

Comentario de jlrm365

Apothecary Hummel is the Coren Direbrew-type boss - and this quest is the Insult Coren Direbrew-type quest - of this world event. Think of tackling him and his two friends in the same way. Take a group of five, ideally members who haven't handed in the quest, so that you can have five shots at loot (which can include the rare Big Love Rocket). I haven't tackled this quest with less than five in a group, but I imagine that it could be done. Standard epic drops are not the most amazing items around, but they'll be steps along the way.

Comentario de jzknuckles

This fight doesn't require a main-spec tank, so don't worry if you can't find one to come along - it's probably faster to take four DPS and a healer (or even a fifth DPS with healing abilities, if they're good).

Tactics:
Hummel has a purple aura that does about 2k per second to anyone near him, unless they've drunk the purple anti-perfume potion. Similarly, Baxter has a green aura that does the same to anyone who hasn't drunk the green anti-cologne potion. Frye has no aura, but throws cologne and perfume on the floor frequently, leaving pools on the ground that deal damage to anyone who is standing in them if the player doesn't have the relevant anti-potion effect on them. The pools are color-coded same as your potions - if you drank the purple anti-potion, a purple pool on the floor won't hurt you. Additionally, Crazed Apothecaries will keep running up and suicide-AoEing on you, this is the only real source of damage if everyone's alert with the perfume/cologne stuff, but should be easy enough for anyone with healing, even off-spec, to deal with.

Choose two members of your party with reasonably high health. They will be your tanks. One will chug the purple anti-perfume potion, and get ready to tank Hummel where he stands (the one with the purple aura). The other will chug the green anti-cologne potion and be ready to tank Baxter (the one with the green aura, who runs to Hummel's 2 o'clock when the fight begins). Everyone else will chug whichever potion they fancy, just so they don't need to worry about moving out of Frye's thrown poison half the time.

When the fight is activated, Hummel is first to become attackable, followed in a few seconds by Baxter and a few seconds more by Frye. The tanks should point Hummel and Baxter towards the walls of this room, to avoid their cologne/perfume spray cone attack hitting the rest of the party. Tanks should run away temporarily when Hummel or Baxter start casting Chain Reaction, as the damage from this is not mitigated by the anti-perfume or anti-cologne potions.

It's generally best for the rest of the DPS to kill Frye first as he has no aggro table and is the most annoying. If Frye runs up close to one of the other alchemists, melee should either chug a potion of that alchemist's aura, or wait for Frye to move on - don't get close to Hummel or Baxter without the right anti-potion up.

Once Frye is dead, move on to either Baxter or Hummel, remembering to drink the correct anti-potion first if you need to.

The alchemists' perfume and cologne effects are nature-damage, so any nature resistance auras you have might be useful here.

Potential causes of failure:

Not getting the hell out of the perfume/cologne pool on the ground when you should do.
Forgetting to drink the correct anti-perfume or anti-cologne when meleeing Baxter or Hummel.
Not pointing Baxter and Hummel away from the rest of the party.

Don't make these mistakes and it'll be easy as cake.

Worth mentioning that if you either wipe on Hummel (I did so before realizing he was a group encounter), or reset the fight (I also did so by running back up the stairs that lead to him), you will have lost the item that allows you to trigger the fight in the first place and with it, your chance to fight Hummel at all. It's a shame they coded it this way, but at least don't repeat my mistakes.

Anyone ever seen "The Rock" with Sean Connery and Nick Cage? These guys have the same names as the terrorists and even quote their lines from the movie apon dying. Also the terrorists from the rock were threating the city with chemical warfare :D

Comentario de 271839

If you fail at killing him, whoever summoned him (the time u failed) can't resummon him. One time thing. DO NOT DIE. :) GL!

Comentario de jaypee13

Hahaha they are the guys from the movie "The Rock" thats awesome

Comentario de nyanko

~~Worth noting as well that they have an ability called "chain reaction" (has a cast bar, might be able to interupt) that will hit for 7-8k. Was used very rarely (maybe 2-3times overall in the fight).~~

Chain Reaction : Inflicts 8550 to 9450 Fire damage to nearby enemies. 5 yds. Used by both Hummel and Baxter.

I was able to 2 man this as a shadowpriest with a ret pally partner. JoL and Vampiric Embrace was generally the only healing needed, but if one of us took a bunch of bombs or didn't move quickly out of a puddle I'd pop out of shadowform and toss out a few binding heals.

Ret pally drank the purple anti-perfume potion and gets Hummel as he spawns. I would drink green anti-cologne potion, and go and stand on Baxter so he'd prox agro me when he became active. After Frye became active he usually just stuck on the Ret and threw his puddles around. Ret pally kept agro on Hummel, I kept agro on Baxter, making sure to keep them faced away so we didn't hit each other with the spray ability. We killed our respective mobs at about the same time, and then we'd do Frye together. They melee for a pitifully weak amount (200-300 on cloth with crits at 400-500), the only danger is not dealing with perfume/cologne stuff properly.

Taking even a few ticks of a cloud will generally mean a wipe (especially if there are some Apothecaries coming to blow up on you) so make sure you get out of the puddles asap!

Comentario de 451532

Great, i just blew my daily because i didn't know that he was a boss =(

Comentario de fozzyuw

Standing on the edge of the one the carriages with barrels in it and you'll be higher than the smoke. It wasn't doing damage to me. Great place for range casters.

Comentario de 492559

I've noted that the Perfume Neutralizer doesn't refresh it's duration if you use it again before it wears off. Same with the Cologne Neutralizer.

If you buff up but have to wait - quickly apply the opposite Neutralizer and then the one you want again.

Comentario de 334572

Baxter, possible reference to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cartoon?

Comentario de Ansawa

So a random dumb thing I noticed during this fight:

Something about Frye's puddles was killing my mage's frost whelp.

I don't know if this happens to other vanity pets, but man, I was pretty #$%^ed about that. :|

Comentario de Arlor

If you don't want to cheese it by standing on a table or fountain (or if Blizz hotfixes that), you can also move to a puddle that matches your color. The green and purple pools never overlap, and they last for a while, so ranged and healer can move to a pool that matches and not worry about the floor for a while.

Definitely no tank needed. If dps and healer can mind their colors, they won't be taking much damage.

Comentario de 73202

Wouldn't the quest itself be a nod to Pineapple Express? You're serving Hummel a subpeona... at first he thinks your a cleaning service I believe? IN PE Seth Rogen dressed up in disguises to serve people subpeonas... just a thought.

Comentario de GhostOfMulgore

this fight is one of the few encounters where the dps can't just faceroll and watch tv on. my server has a couple of 'pro dps' (yes i'm using the term ever so lightly) who, first off, either don't put on the right neutralizer or none at all, then run around chancing frye... then when everyone's dead and a chance is wasted these are their words "omfg you all fail, i didn't get healed, i died too fast, L2PLAY, nubz, gtfo" ... you know, the usual things a fail players says =/ but when it comes down to it, this fight relies on people paying attention lol, that's about it

Comentario de 448399

I dont see how people havent noticed this and I dont want to go off topic but the amount of people saying its from observe and report is nuts, whether it is from a movie or not no one really cares, but for all you out there the line You got served was popularised by the movie You Got Served... and there has been #$%^-takes from then on about it

Comentario de nikapo

I was in a group today for my daily run, and our healer had not been there yet. He got the quest, opened the bag, applied one of the neutralizers, etc; however, when it came time for him to actually turn the quest in and start the fight, he had a gray ? and the "complete quest" button was grayed out. He was a lvl 80 druid, with a fairly high gearscore, so it wasn't a question of that. He tried destroying all the items, and abandoning the quest, and obtaining it again; however, he was still not able to turn the quest in.

Has this happened to anyone else? He hadn't done the prereqs but neither did the warlock in our party and she was able to turn in the quest just fine.

Also, I know he hadn't already turned in the quest today because a) he wouldn't have been able to pick it up again and b) he got the achievement after the first kill.

Any ideas?

Comentario de Souliepiekin

We did this as 4 pallys and a hunter (All belfs incidentally)

I was the only non-80 (78) and the hunter and I took on frye.

Since he apparently can be stunned I probably should have been hitting hammer of justice each time he was in range, the hunter had it easy, she just had to turn as he ran...I was making good use of judge-light (probably should have switched for justice second fight...) and my instant-cast exorcisms...but man did they give Frye some turbo boosters.

She also should have sic'd her pet on frye, not the other two apocatheries, but we did manage to win every time after the first round, in which we made the following mistake:

IF YOU DIE, DO NOT RUN BACK IN. Wait until you are all dead before releasing.

it apparently despawns the bosses and resets the three of them. You lose a summons.

to ghost of mulgore who apparently got purged

While I think you're saying nobody should focus on frye until the end, I am not certain:
to the purged comment...someone has to deal with frye, he's fine to focus on if you have good "tanks" on the other two and a decent healer...ours was a pally healer and two tank-specc'd pallies and I was the only one who really died after we "figured it out" (Wrong puddle one time, died at the end from wrong puddle that I didn't even see on the floor once and died from chain reaction once (got too close to Baxter when it went off) but I also had the lowest HP.)

Don't follow frye to the other two alchemists in case of Chain Reaction, but instead use any ranged ability you have when he gets too close to them (ret pally for example: exorcism and a judgement, for instance... also I didn't try it but I think since he doesn't focus aggro on any one person, Hand of Reckoning might do dmg (it relies on the mob not paying attention to you.) A mage, lock or hunter can rain their AOE down over him when he's at one of the alchemists)

Also I think my exorcism crit every time against frye...but he's listed as humanoid...odd.

Comentario de Nathiest

Thank you blizzard for creating a very annoying encounter so annoying in fact that no one wishes to run it even with the odd chance of obtaining a cool pink rocket mount.

Comentario de 462755

Is Frye sheepable?

Comentario de 544549

It seems that the drop rates have been severely reduced after the first day. In 5 summons on first day we had 2 gas masks, roses, and pet drop. In the next 5 days of 5 summons a day I have only seen two gas masks and two roses dropped.

Comentario de drax99

some changes I noticed: Pets were dying in seconds from the AE, due to avoidance not working for the puddles and auras, now they seem to resist most of the damage. I let my pet tank the green boss while I was DPSing the purple when I got called on to off-tank. I didnt even need to heal him, and he was a wolf, not even a tank pet.

Second, i could swear the potions lasted longer. First day we did the event 3 times before it wore off. This time, it lasted only 5 min, wore off in the middle of the second fight, and apparently didnt reapply when used a second time while it was active. We had to remove the existing buff and reapply.

Comentario de 244981

A lot of out of date info here atm. You dont need the Subpoena anymore, at least not if you have done the quests previously (I had already done it so can't confirm how it works if you're new to it).

The goblin NPC you talk to in SFK isnt there, you appear at the top of the courtyard stairs and the door behind you is locked. The perfumes you need are on a table to your left.

You also can't (currently) join it through the lfg tool UNLESS you talk to one of the goblin investigators in the capital cities.

You only get 1 attempt per group. But you can requeue and do it again as often as you like.

Hopefully quite soon the nice people at Wowhead will have more up to date info making my comments redundant.

Comentario de 11563

Based on my own experience, you don't seem to need a quest in order to earn the achievement. I queued for the dungeon after doing enough of the dailies to get the achievement Dangerous Love, but I was never directed to SFK nor did I pick up any quests related to the apothecaries.

There may be quests that lead you to them (I expect I will have it tomorrow, one day after completing the dailies for today), but they aren't necessary for the achievement.

Comentario de 501040

Possible reference from southpark, when some guys "served" the children, and they said "you just got served!"

Comentario de 186733

Currently, you have to be at least level 84 in order to be able to queue for the holiday boss.
