Found this guy wandering in the new Dungeon: The Seat of the Triumvirate on my second run (so he doesn't always spawn). Didn't kill him unfortunately as he casts a portal spell (which is interruptible) and got away.

Kommentar von Rayah

Saw him yesterday while doing it on heroic, I didn’t see his exact spawn point, but we killed him around 44,27 which is in the void area before you jump down to the third boss.
Vixx casts a spell that will make him despawn, it can be interrupted.

He dropped Vixx’s Chest of Tricks for me and the Unstable Portal Emitter dropped for someone else in the group.

Didn’t see him in the dungeon today, so it's not a 100% spawn chance.

Kommentar von nisx

Treasure goblin!

Kommentar von duranox

I've seen him on 2 places now. First was between the first and second boss and the other area was straight before you jump down to the third boss. I also have reason to believe he's connected to the rare cycle across Argus.

Kommentar von Deathcam

Anyone know if hes alrdy spawn in the dungeon as you enter?.
just wanna see if you can /tar him as you enter the dungeon

Vizz der Sammler is a rare spawn in Der Sitz des Triumvirats that drops 2 toys: Vizz' Trickkiste and Instabiler Portalemitter

Spawn Info

Vixx can spawn in both the Heroic and Mythic version of the instance.
If Vixx is up a message will appear in the chat as soon as the first boss dies "Ah he he he! What a lovely day for meeeeeee!"
If Vixx spawns far away from you or if Zuraal der Aufgestiegene dies while you are inside the Void Realm then you might not see the message
You can /target Vixx as soon as Zuraal der Aufgestiegene dies to check if he is up or not.
Vixx can spawn during any active World Quest.

Engaging Vixx

Vixx has a huge aggro range, so run at him while mounted to close the distance.
Once engaged in combat, Vixx will cast Dimensionssprung to get away similar to the goblins from Diablo 3 so you will have to interrupt or stun him.

Farming Vixx

You can farm Vixx on mythic by creating a creating a group with a friend or by opening one in Premade Groups
Once you have defeated Zuraal der Aufgestiegene, you can run out and reset the instance

Rewards

The drop chance is pretty high, the loot is personal and, if you're lucky enough, you can get both toys from a single kill.
Vizz' Trickkiste - Disguises you as a wyrmtongue treasure-collector and give you title for 10 minutes.
Instabiler Portalemitter - Opens up a portal that will teleport you to a random location.

Kommentar von Xirev

Look for this emote right after you kill the first boss:

"Ah he he he! What a lovely day for meeeeeee!"

The rare is only up if this emote comes up, if it doesn't then it isn't up.

Kommentar von Smokescreen1717

Anyone able to consistently get a kill on this thing? Any tips for pulling him without him running out of range of interrupts?

1) You have to run this 12-15 times just to see a spawn, and given the daily lockout, and random spawn, you can't really group for it.
2) He spams his spell quite fast, and in a pug, it's all the more unlikely he will be stopped since you can't solo interrupt given the speed.
3) He aggros from a mile away and gives no indication he has aggroed until he starts casting and is running AWAY from you. As he runs away the entire place is packed with trash, many of which slow you.

Gets pretty old running this on 9 toons daily just to see a spawn, and then every other day when you see one, it's highly unlikely the random group will be able to actually kill it.

Edit - Just finally got another spawn after 16 more runs, group wasn't able to even get in range to interrupt since you can't cast on mounts and keep up with him through trash. This seriously needs to be fixed. Tank was a LONG ways away when he aggroed too, as I explained the situation to the group. No one was able to catch up. In many cases you can barely even tell he has aggroed until he starts casting dimensional slip, as there is no indication, so if you are being cautious not to aggro and keep your distance, by the time you notice it is too late.

Of course, you can only run this once per day, and since you can't really group for this given its a random spawn, its going to be a different group of people every time, which negates any learning curve. The absurdity needs to be addressed.

Kommentar von Koolnerd17

I got it on my tank warrior 2nd run and had no clue what it was,
we were closing all the portals (like 7 or 8 of them?) and he popped near the entrance (the one on the very southeast part of the map) and was trying to leave.

We were all geared and interrupted it like every 3 seconds so it couldn't escape and we had to chase him a bit (like the muffin thief) and i got the toy randomly from the group

Kommentar von Trabuco

No party doing Heroic wants to kill him, so I'll just wait for BfA to solo him

Kommentar von MsWeatherwax

Does it spawn in normal SoTT or just heroic?

Kommentar von panseit

I would like to add that both of the toys that drop from Vixx the Collector cannot be traded between party members. :(

Kommentar von Tikiya

He is immune to DK grip but can be stunned and interrupted.

His casts gets faster and they also come in faster the more stacks he has. (he had 23 stacks for us at one point on two people!)

Seen him spawn twice in the area before you jump down to the third boss. He walks in the area after the collapsed bridge with the huge void circle on the right.

Kommentar von Aiyun

I'm farming this rare with maybe 12 characters and have killed him over 12 times. Sadly no toy for me yet but some party members have gotten toys.
Noone cares but me but I spam and say that it drops toys etc to kill :)

Kommentar von Nevernite

idk if it is a bug or not. but today we got the emote after the first boss in random daily hc.
but /tar vixx didn't work at all. We killed everything up to the last boss, I decided to run back and search for him..

Apparantly this guy is now invisible. And aggroed me out of his stealth... couldn't even do anything with my twink. Couldn't tell the party to help out. since he was already beginning to teleport out.

//edit:
Ok, I encountered the mob today again. This time he wasn't invisible. And the target command worked. Though only until we had reached the 1st Boss. (maybe because the draw distance on my weak laptop wasn't that great idk). So Vixx was camping on the far left behind the trashpack in front of the 2nd Boss. (before you jump down) So we tried clearing the trash first w/o aggroing vixx. But the whole group didn't know the rare mob. Tank went in a little bit to far, with me (heal) noticing to late that vixx already stardet to cast. and off he goes.. another miserable attempt to kill him.

//edit 2: Okay, either I am really lucky today, or vixx' spawn chance was dramatically increased.
Had him spawn the 3rd time today. On the second kill I got one toy. He didn't drop anything else though. Party was sad.
The invis bug only happened once.

//edit:3
make that 4th time today! But idiot tank in dps spec, who didn't play since patch. Of course I was the only one who kicked. Even after instructing the others how that guy works.Thats frustrating in a random heroic dungeon. For the record I went in with 12 chars today.

Kommentar von LomaxGnome

Even at 120, if you can't interrupt frequently, you aren't going to kill him solo before he gets away. So be sure to bring a class with a regular interrupt or don't bother. Pretty disheartening to wait a couple weeks to see him spawn only to see him slip away.

Kommentar von ElLual29

So I was talking to a guildmate on discord and I was just fixing to kill him and then he opened a portal and went and now I can't target him anywhere in the dungeon? Did I screw up my chance to kill him? If so, I am mad at myself lol

Kommentar von Endorhal

So I killed Zuraal der Aufgestiegene approximately 8 - 10 times in a row now and I haven't got the message even once yet. Is the spawnrate so bad or am I missing something? I never went to a voidrealm (unless it's the black ooze on the ground which I doubt).

Kommentar von trogstar

Bob is in the Seat of the Triumvirate.
Bob sees Vixx the Collector and is super excited.
Bob leaves the instance to help summon some guild mates.
Bob is sad, Vixx despawned during a soft reset.
Don't be like Bob.

Kommentar von Djuntas

Just my 2 cents;

Since heroic is on lockout, save this for later when you got enough alts at 120 or so.

Boss still has 300k hp so its not a walkover + camp alts outside instance and try your luck every day

Kommentar von Avisrara

Unfortunately, he can drop the toy you already have. I have killed Vixx 6 times now and he has dropped the Chest of Tricks twice and the box everytime. No Unstable Portal for me. I do wish the drop rate for the toys was higher given that this is a rare spawn.

Kommentar von murphymurph

I've killed Zuraal 35 days straight on Heroic now and never once seen the emote or been able to /tar Vixx. Is his spawn really that low or as a 120 is something different?

Kommentar von Beace

I encounted Vixx tonight, and he instantly evaded when I attacked him. Haven't seen or heard of this issue before. He was kinda standing on one of those long stone ledges, but definitely not something that should cause evades. To be safe in the future, I'd recommend only engaging him when he's on plain ground.

Kommentar von Metushelah

Saw him yesterday on heroic (is he only on heroic btw?) and he ran away because i didn't have enough stuns or interrupts so make sure that you do!

He will keep trying to run away every couple of seconds and not only one time like i thought.

Kommentar von Vezon64

I think his loot is on a weekly lockout.

I've been lucky enough to get him to spawn a couple of times in the past week. After I killed him the first time earlier in the week, he failed to drop any loot afterwards in subsequent kills.

If this is the case, at least I or anyone else won't have to waste their time trying to farm him if they're already killed him on a character during their weekly lockout.

Kommentar von 1491791

I killed him with a group of friends today and no one got a toy.

Kommentar von GamerX1092

Killed him at least 7 times yet I haven't gotten either toy to drop. What are the drop chances? I mean getting him to spawn is once every few days is bad enough.

Kommentar von Elfzwolf

I have been grinding away at Vixx for quite a while. Finally, I have both toys. I discovered some useful information.

Sure, he drops Vizz' Trickkiste Tricks on the first kill, but the Instabiler Portalemitter is a bit harder to get. I took a guildie in and they got it on their first kill. But, in the next 20 or so solo kills it did not drop for me. I took a second friend in, and sure enough it dropped. So, I have a theory that Instabiler Portalemitter only drops if you have 2 or more in the party. It didn't drop in 20 solo kills, but dropped 100% in the two kills where the party had 2 players. BTW, you can loot him even if you didn't tag him, but you need to be inside the instance.

One other useful piece of information, on every kill he always drops five Schachtel voller leerenverseuchter Wesen. After 4 kills you will have 20 of them (the maximum allowable). Once you have 20 you are NOT ABLE TO LOOT Vixx, even if they are in your bank. So, don't keep them.

Some people talk about weekly lockout. Vixx only appears on HEROIC difficulty, so it is a DAILY lockout.

Good luck

Kommentar von GilbertGrape

FYI Vixx the Collector will despawn if not tagged. I decided to clear the mobs around first, and he was no longer there.

Kommentar von Noctemus

Vixx, how much i hate you. For the collectors, please, if you are not a well geared (395+) melee, do not even try. This mob is so god damn annoying. Sometimes he teleports even before finishing the cast...so god damn buggy.

Kommentar von Metushelah

He seems bugged now. I haven't seen him for 2 weeks after hunting for him on 2 characters. I could see him at least every other day during 8.1.

edit: No longer bugged and appears every once in a while. Didn't drop anything except boxes so far :(

Kommentar von Assmasher

If I make a group, clear instance and re-kill 1st boss Zuraal, will it spawn Vixx or has it got to be first kill with lootable Zaruu to spawn Vix? Thanks.

Kommentar von Djuntas

So I had good luck on the drops, able to get both toys rather fast. You will probably only see 1 spwan out of every 10 kill of the 1st boss.

Note on gear; With CD's and nuking 200k hp dies fast. But I can see some classes struggle, but I found it easy enough to kill Vixx in item level 385-390 gear on alts I only use for lockout farming.

Kommentar von Gwez

To clarify the farm method in Nightswifty's comment:

Set Mythic difficulty
Create group in LFG
Enter the instance
Kill Zuraal der Aufgestiegene
If Vizz der Sammler spawns go kill him and you're done for the rest of the week*
Leave group
Leave the instance
Right click in your portrait and Reset all instances
Create a new group in LFG (this is mandatory or this method will not work)
Enter the instance
Instance is reset, so repeat from step 4

*I'm not 100% sure if the loot lockout applies to Vixx ot not, maybe you could get loot from him twice a day, I'm just not wasting my time and just swapping characters after a kill each week. Any information on this would be welcome for all collectors.

For every character, in heroic you are granted 1 chace to spawn every day, and in mythic you are granted 1 kill every week (as long as you repeat this reset method).

PS: All credit for this method is not mine, I just got it from the aforementioned comment, I'm just making this independent one because you can't post lists on replies.

Kommentar von Danaan

Out of 225 runs, I looted him 15 times, which in turn means the spawn chance is roughly 7%.
I'm running it on Heroic and Mythic, but have to admit that I have not seen a single spawn on myth yet.

Kommentar von Georgino

Now that legacy rules applied on legion instances, note that bringing more people to your group or join other's group if one of the toys drops, you have to roll for it.
So now killing it solo is the only efficient method to loot the toys.

Kommentar von Wisdom

First I just want to say I've been playing WoW for over a decade and I've never taken the time to join a website to make a comment until now. That said...

After farming Vixx for months because I want his toys, specifically his - I have this recommendation for those considering doing it: don't.

Let me explain what you're getting yourself into ... First off, the information you'll find elsewhere considering Vixx is erroneous. There's a rumor he spawns on Mythic, perhaps someone has actually witnessed this, perhaps it is in the coding of the game that he potentially can spawn in Mythic, but I will tell you I've run Mythic 300+ times to check and spoken to others who ran it endlessly too. Results: He didn't spawn 1 time on Mythic for any of us. To clarify, you can party with someone and run into a Mythic, kill the first boss, exit the dungeon and reset the instance and try again. It's possible he used to spawn on Mythic and Blizzard changed it. I even opened a ticket and spoke to a GM about this rumor, and apparently THEY say he spawns on Mythic. After prying further I found out the GM was just getting his information off this website and regurgitating it to me. So as it stands, Vixx spawning on Mythic is either a rumor or such a low percentage that it's very tough to make it happen by running Mythics over and over.

Furthermore, you have to realize Vixx's Heroic spawn rate is very low. About 7%. Which is about 1 spawn per 14 runs. Then, his toy drop rate is actually low. I know people online have been saying it's high - but it isn't. Maybe it used to be, but I think Blizzard realized a lot of people are farming these toys and they lowered the drop rate. Which was smart of them to do because I've been re-subbing each month just to log in, farm it, and log off. They are a business and they do analyze things to maximize their revenue, so I wouldn't be surprised if Vixx was altered. In fact, I know his code was touched because if you have noticed lately he is showing up with a Gold dragon portrait, and was previously always a Silver dragon portrait just a month ago and prior. So that could possibly be proof his code was likely touched by the Blizz devs.

Also, I want to add that if you are killing Vixx and looting from him, that I heard if you're carrying 10 of these, he will no longer drop any loot for you anymore. Because max out at a stack of 10, and this will make the game's code not drop anymore of them for you, including the rest of his loot table, the toys. So definitely make sure you get those out of your bags or you'll be farming him endlessly for no reason. Brutal right?

And finally, back to the math - Vixx spawns about 7% of runs, but his toys drop % is very obscure knowledge. But I have personally killed him an abundance of times across multiple toons, farming him every single day, and only got his . I have yet to see , which is the one I actually want. So I would estimate each toy is probably around a 3-5% drop rate from what I have personally witnessed. So here is where the math gets crazy: If he spawns 7% of the time, and his toys are around a 4% drop rate... This makes getting each toy = 4% of 7% ... which is 0.002 which mean every time you enter The Seat of the Triumvirate you have a .2% of walking out with a toy. So if you're looking to farm this, be ready to possibly find yourself staring down 500 runs.

I just wanted to put this all out there because I've pretty much halted my WoW playing but I have been making getting this one toy my little WoW hobby and I've noticed there is a huge obscurity of information concerning it all online.

Finally, I noticed other people on Vixx's wowhead page saying “During patch 8.3.0 loot legacy rules started applying to Legion instances making Vixx's Chest of Tricks and Unstable Portal Emitter an almost sure drop from Vixx the Collector.” This is the type of false information that can ruin someone's month. The chance of leaving The Seat of the Triumvirate with Vixx's toys is still abysmally small, please don’t listen to false data like this.

In conclusion, I want to say that Blizzard really needs to add spawn and drop % data into the Dungeon Journal. Even consulting a GM resulted in receiving false information that they simply found online themselves. It’s borderline evil having people farm something with obscure information regarding the item because it costs them their real time, their real effort, and their real money.

So if you are still determined to farm these toys, go for it, you will eventually get them if you don’t relent - I just wanted people to know ahead of time what they’re getting themselves into so they don’t just jump into it and get angry and find themselves farming something they wouldn’t have even begun trying to get had they had all the vital data ahead of time.

Edit: typo

Kommentar von Sarthorius

This B**rd seems to 'prefer' to spawn right when you're 'busy' in combat. Twice...TWICE IN THE SAME WEEK I had RareScanner's alarms go off but with the current game's blocking of stuff while in combat, lost him because for the addon's 'button' to appear I had to drop combat somehow, and in that time, this bugger always vanishes.

Now this is personal, should've done it since the start, now I'm gonna mark it on a /tar macro and spam the hell out of it if I EVER see it again.

Kommentar von alpanhell

There seems to be a lot of contradictory information posted here on this guy. I don't know if it's because it's changed over time, or a lot of it is just wrong.

So I decided to do a little experiment. I have 12 x 120's so I parked them all outside the Dungeon and over 2 days (not much of a sample I know, but better than nothing) I did the Dungeon. So I did it 12 times on Mythic and 24 (2 x 12 times) on Heroic.

I just killed the first boss, then watched for a Vixx emote and always did a /tar vix whether I saw the emote or not (since some have said there was no emote). Here's what happened:

I never saw Vixx even once on Mythic
The first day I saw Vixx once in Heroic. The second day I saw Vixx 4 times in Heroic (this indicates how bad the RNG is in this game)
The first time I killed him Instabiler Portalemitter dropped, the second time I killed him Vizz' Trickkiste dropped. The other 3 times all I got was Schachtel voller leerenverseuchter Wesen
I was pretty amazed that /tar vix worked because he was always pretty far away (I did the /tar standing at first boss). He always spawned between the door that Alleria opens and the 3rd boss.
I always saw the emote. It's pretty hard to miss, though it doesn't say it's him it's a different color than the boss text so really stands out (an orange/brown color)
Follow others comments of riding your mount up to him. Some cc doesn't work like DH Grab and Mage Frost Nova, so if you try and cc him from far away he may outrun you if it doesn't work

Pretty amazed that I got both toys in two days after reading all the comments here. Also not so amazed that he spawned once in the first day and 4 times in the next day, you can definitely see how your luck can vary.

Kommentar von BeerWolf

Got Vixx to drop both toys on my 3rd time seeing him... :)

Kommentar von Naj4

Finally got those toys too (heroic only to get him to show up) 1st kill got Chest, 5th one for Emitter.
i tried mythic very few times but i never saw him once.

Kommentar von Linaya

Me and 3 friends have been farming these toys for a month now. I've been doing it on 14 chars/day with an avarage of 3 kills per day.

My 3 friends all have the 2 toys but they are still doing it daily to give me more chance because i got the box on 1st try, but still waiting for the portal... This is starting to make me crazy..

Kommentar von kirirumoji

Vixx has 191k hp and is pretty easy to kill.
It's better to mount up before going to him as he starts to run when you get close and has a stacking run speed buff. He is so squishy that I have killed him on my 440ilvl monk before he even started to cast portal. Just run to him on mount, stun him, finish off.

~~You can really target him from the first boss. Works like a charm.~~ Generally you can target him from afar, but sometimes it doesn't work.

It's my first week of trying. So far did 8 heroic attempts, found Vixx only once, he dropped 10 normal quality semi-toy boxes.

Edit: started my second week of Vixx hunting. Today (28.08.2020) was the first time when I couldn't target him from the first boss, but his emote showed me that Vixx has spawned in the dungeon. Found him in the water lake on the way between 2nd and 3rd boss.

Kommentar von hotcore

It took me about 25 attempts of heroic for him to finally spawn so don't give up! He actually runs quite fast so you will need to keep up with him otherwise he will run away, open a portal and vanish. You can stun him to stop him from running or making a portal. He is very easy to kill if you have 400 item level or higher.

Kommentar von shylee

I got the last toy I needed today, and I'd like to share my two cents since, as Wisdom's comment points out, it seems that the information about this rare mob is riddled with inaccuracies.

Total farm time: About two weeks.
Number of toons used: About ten different lvl 120 toons.
Mode: Heroic only, daily, one toon per run.

Some info from my personal experience:

Farming this guy daily on Heroic seems to be the way to go. As Wisdom's comment and other comments on this page suggest, Vixx either doesn't spawn on Mythic or spawns very very rarely. Some have said they've done the lockout trick of farming Vixx on Mythic again and again on the same day and they haven't seen him spawn even once after hours of farming. On the other hand, I've been farming Vixx every day on Heroic only on about ten characters, and I've seen him spawn once a day on average (some days he wouldn't spawn for me at all, but other days he would spawn in two-three runs).
Farm this rare only on toons that can do massive burst damage and and/or can interrupt/stun repeatedly with decent mobility. Most of my toons (I have an alt of every class) at 120 with 425+ ilvl were able to manage Vixx before he poofed (either with high dps or good cc's). The only one I was having trouble with was my undergeared priest. There is nothing more painful than seeing Vixx spawn and not being able to kill/stun/interrupt him in time. So make sure your toons can handle him before you dedicate them to this farm (I imagine this will no longer be a problem next expac, but who knows with the coming level squish).
If the emote doesn't appear after the first boss kill, then Vixx most likely hasn't spawned. Some reports suggest that even if the emote doesn't appear, there's a chance that Vixx is out there somewhere just out of range. From my experience, that was not the case. When the emote didn't show, he was no where to be found. On the other hand, he spawned once so far that my targeting macro couldn't reach him, and the sepcial emote still appeared even though he was very far. So personally, I wouldn't waste time trying to macro target him around the instance after the first boss dies if the emote hasn't appeared. The emote is: "Ah he he he! What a lovely day for meeeeeee!"
The drop rate seems to be about the same as earlier reports (which is decent). Unlike Wisdom's comment that suggests that the drop rate was changed and reduced greatly, my personal experience conforms with the drop rates reported on Wowhead (~30% for one toy, and ~15% for the other). In the past week and a half of farming these toys, I've gotten the Chest of Tricks toy about 3-5 times, and the Unstable Portal Emitter once (today). The rest of the time I just got the consumable Box of Void-Tainted Entities item and maybe some other random stuff.

I hope this helps! Good luck on your farm~ <3

Kommentar von Kronatan

Farmed before Shadowlands prepatch with 12 chars.9 horde and 3 alliance. First 3 days I didn't meet him at all. And even starts to think he was removed or something like that. But at 4d day I meet him twice. For some strange reason both of this chars has been paladins (1 horde and one ally). Got portal toy at alliance char and NOTHING as horde. At next day I met him again as ally paladin and got 2nd toy. Total runs 51. But well, its like 1 min to kill 1st boss and detect Vixx presence. So tottaly everything tooks around 1h plus 3min per char to bring them to dungeon. But if this is fresh chars you have to waste some time for prequests. But it takes only around 10-15min if you skip side quests and only do major.

So just stack your alts before heroic Triumvirate entrance and check em once per day. Drop chance looks like big enough according to wowhead. Also if you check video, you see author got both toys from ONE Vixx. So you have some chances to get both. Ofc I was lucky but actually I was rdy to repeat this at least for month (during prepatch). And it tooks like 20min per day. Not a big deal.

All my alts have 440-450+ gear and its pretty ez to kill Vixx and 1st boss with it. But I also made some runs as 350ilvl moonkin and sp 370. And feelings was like "ergghhhh". Doable ofc but takes like 2-3min. So most likely fresh green chars in 280 gear probably will get some troubles here. So gear up them a bit for comfortable farm.

Kommentar von Hyrcyne

Finally got both toys in the Shadowlands pre-patch from Vixx, and it took 8 kills to finally get the Instabiler Portalemitter. Got the other toy, Vizz' Trickkiste, on about half the kills, including the very first one, and the last kill where it dropped both at the same time.

My strategy was to park my alts at the instance after clearing Antorus, der Brennende Thron, that way I'd only have one weekly trip to Argus to do. Kill the first boss of SotV on Mythic and Heroic and watch chat for the emote.

Vixx doesn't spawn very often, but thankfully the toy drop chances are fairly high. I'd suggest parking as many alts as you can in front of the instance and do it daily on Heroic to maximize the chance of spawning the rare, then crossing your fingers one more time for the toy.

Kommentar von Bonhert

20 times on mythic, 75 times on heroic and I still haven't found him even once. This RNG gives me anxiety. Never seen the emote, never targeted him with macro.

Kommentar von silkfire

Can someone confirm that he's still there? I've killed the first boss every day for 3 months now on Heroic, run to the wall that Alleria destroys with her spell and used the /target macro but never seen him spawn.

UPDATE

This is insane! Thing is, the character I had parked outside SoT is a non-max level character that I used only to run this instance with daily (Heroic). On my main (lvl 60), I never unlocked SoT cause I never did the Argus campaign with him. So just out of fun, I tried to see if I could still run SoT without having done the campaign that leads up to "unlocking" the dungeon. Lo and behold! After killing the first boss, the emote appears. I run to the wall, hit my /target macro and can see that he's far away in the distance at the western edge of Shadowguard Incursion. Quickly rode to him and killed him in 2-3 shots. Drops both toys. Finally! If only I've come up with this idea earlier....

My conclusion from this is that it seems you need to be max level for him to even spawn.

Posting my experience.

I have 4 max level characters. Their ilvl as of feb 2021 is about 180 on average. All of my runs were done solo heroic. Went in every time and killed the first boss and checked for vixx's emote that he screams. The emote was always the tell that he was there. There was several times that the /target vixx macro couldn't pick him up right after the boss kill because his random spawn in the void fields was just out of range. Getting closer to the building after the first boss allowed me to target vixx with the macro at that point. He doesn't seem to flee until you get close to him but once there you have to slow or stun him immediately or he will warp out almost instantly. I've also had one or two attempts end because I took to long to find him so I think he has a Timmer that will trigger his warp eventually.

His spawn point seems to be random in the second area called the shadowguard incursion. For me he typically spawned further in the area near the top left/west or top right/east area. I would typically mount after the first boss/ vixx's emote and run for the building, trigger the cut open dialog, then I would bolt for the upper areas and just scan the view constantly to locate him. His chest is pretty obvious but I always felt in a rush to find him since he doesn't appear on the map. I did not test an rare mob scanners so I don't know if they would pin point him better.

I did almost 20 runs before I saw him the first time. It may seem like he will never spawn but it just seems to be completely random. After the first time I started seeing once or twice a week on 4 daily runs. I spent about 3 weeks devoted to it. Did over 40 runs with 5 or 6 encounters before he dropped the toy.

I see a lot of people on here saying it was quick or is was super long. People have said he never spawns or he does pretty regularly. People talk about heroic counting or not. I wish blizzard would either set this to a traditional encounter so he spawns always after your 3rd or say 4th boss run and then drop the toy chance down to 1% or the better idea would be to come out with the rough details about the bosses spawn mechanics. This would at least confirm what people need to do rather then driving a community insane because they want something but every ones experience is different.

Just wanted to say that I ran the dungeon today for the world quest (my difficulty was set to NORMAL). I got a notification that Vixx had spawned, I didn't know he was a treasure goblin so I thought I'd go after him when I was finished with the first boss and of course he was nowhere to be found. Then I checked here to find out I shouldn't have tarried but oh well :)

Kommentar von V3rtige

Never saw him, in a month ...

Kommentar von frihedstimen

Last 2 month i have "farmed" Vixx on heroic and myth! I got 1/2 toy in 18 attempt, i got the same toy plenty of times. This morning i killed him but there was NO LOOT at all!

Spawn Info
Vixx can spawn in both the Heroic and Mythic version of the instance.
If Vixx is up a message will appear in the chat as soon as the first boss dies "Ah he he he! What a lovely day for meeeeeee!"
If Vixx spawns far away from you or if Zuraal the Ascended dies while you are inside the Void Realm then you might not see the message
You can /target Vixx as soon as Zuraal the Ascended dies to check if he is up or not.
Vixx can spawn during any active World Quest.

does this guy ONLY spawn with an active world quest in the dungeon?

i have a few rarely played alts camped outside the dungeon that never fully unlocked argus but are able to run the heroic dungeon.

looking for some input so i know that i'm not completely wasting my time :D

Vizz der Sammler finally appear for me after so many tries, on heroic mode.
Before i attacked him he started to run away and to cast Dimensionssprung.
I intrerupted his spell very fast and start to attack him but in 1-2 seconds after he just dissapeared.
It is so frustating to wait for him so much time and when you finally get it spawned this happends ....

Kommentar von Gaviin

Just to add my experience in case it helps others:

Vixx never spawned on Mythic difficulty, only Heroic.
He never spawned without doing his emote, even when he spawned incredibly far away to the point where I couldn't initially target him. The emote always showed when he spawned.
I farmed him for 7 days over 11 toons; he spawned 9 times over 76 attempts (I got the second toy on the 10th toon of the 7th day). This is a ~12% spawn rate.
Vizz' Trickkiste dropped 3 times total (including on the same kill as the other toy). Roughly 33% drop rate.
Instabiler Portalemitter dropped once. Roughly 11% drop rate.
These limited sample size drop rates are more or less in line with what's reported here on wowhead, so really no reason to suspect they've changed.

Good luck, all!

Kommentar von Katamai

Been killing him for weeks now. I get him to spawn roughly once a day when farming on 12 characters.

I am guessing this is bad (good?) luck, but i've gotten the disguise toy every single kill, but so far no portal.

All kills/spawns are on heroic.

Kommentar von Vandiel01

The ONLY question I have is... (its not IN ANY comments), does Vizz der Sammler spawn in SAME location every time or its random?

Kommentar von monkiy

I just discovered that you can get both toys from the same kill, they are not exclusive to each other. Though I already had one of them myself, some very lucky person could be done with one lucky spawn!

Kommentar von ifloops

After hundreds of instances:

I, like others, never encountered him in Mythic. Not once. I seriously doubt it's possible for him to spawn in Mythic.

Also, I never saw him spawn without emoting. There was ONE occasion where he wasn't immediately targettable, and I had to move into the building to target him - but the emote still happened instantly as usual.

His aggro range is also enormous. He'll start running when you're ~20 yards away. He's easily killable by 60s, but lower levels may struggle, even if they kill the first boss easily. I have failed to kill him on a 54 shadow priest.

Kommentar von skyline33

10 Days of Heoric/Mythic on multiple characters. Never saw him emote ad could never "/tar Vixx" him. Gave him a go on Heroic before reset, no emote after killing 1st boss but /tar worked. Very luckily got both toys!

Kommentar von Exoll

Since Dragonflight pre-patch, no matter how many tries, I can't get him to spawn anymore.
Anyone having this problem? Did he break? Should I send a ticket?

Kommentar von andru360

I can confirm as of 19.12.2022, He still spawns.

Difficulty: Heroic

I was lucky enough to get Vizz' Trickkiste

Kommentar von tanzine

Saw him today 25th Feb 2023 on solo HC, got the Chest of Tricks toy.

He didn't emote, but I /tar Vixx immediately after the first boss and there he was.

Kommentar von SYCHOST

There is a toxic level of RNG with whatever dev thought his guy up. Almost has the drop rate to appear of a mount then tag on RNG for for the actual drops. Running 13 alts and lucky to see aa spawn every two days.

Kommentar von fendred

There are only two ways to get the toys you need from Vixx:
a) Be unreasonably lucky, or
b) Put an unreasonable amount of time and resources into farming him

Lately I've been running Heroic daily on 5x lvl 50 alts parked outside the instance. About 1 in 15 runs will spawn Vixx, but RNG is RNG and sometimes I'll be on 30 runs wondering if I've messed something up or if its bugged and not spawning anymore before I finally get another attempt on him.

Vizz' Trickkiste Has a 32% drop chance, and Instabiler Portalemitter is at 16% so you would roughly expect to see one Portal for every two Chests, but at 25 kills (from est. 3-400 runs) so far and at least half a dozen chest drops I'm still waiting on the Portal Emitter..

I'm sure there there are those out there who can get Vixx to spawn on their first run and have both toys drop, but if that's not your deal then prepare to put in at least 100 runs.

FWIW I found mythic to be a waste of time, and the emote is reliable enough that running around with a target macro after the first boss will probably waste more of your time across the hundreds of runs where Vixx doesn't spawn than it will save even if it does find him the one time the emote doesn't happen (but it's still good to have one so you can easily find where he spawned)

Edit: Obtained on Vixx kill #28

Kommentar von teelo

Proof that it is possible to get both on the same kill: https://imgur.com/a/YEw6Ist

I farmed heroic on 20 characters for a few weeks until it finally dropped. Just parked every character outside. Log in, run in, kill boss, if no yell, run out, log out. 10 an hour limit, so came back an hour or two later to get the other 10 characters.

Kommentar von SaltyVaulty

The drop rate is much better than back in the day. I found him twice and now have both toys. I have two other guildies that are also done with the toys. Only somewhat difficult part is finding him. I found him on heroic both times.

Kommentar von Tente

Started like a week ago (today it's 22-9-2023) with no luck on Vixx emote, so instead of leaving the dungeons I tried to go ahead and try to target him after valeria opens the way, and surprise, /tar vixx worked, there he was, golden dragon Vixx witing for me, so do not expect the emote, try to target him anyway.

Kommentar von Nyxob24

I found a way to farm it, although I still haven't seen Vixx yet in 7 reset:
Join queue for any battlegrounds (don't have to join, just be in queue)
Enter mythic dungeon, clear first boss, go out, and reset all instance. I don't know why, the dungeon reset with first boss alive, but it won't if you are not in queue.
enjoy!
EDIT: nevermind this only work in mythic and rare dont spawn in mythic :(

Kommentar von Eaglexx

Did anyone got him to spawn more than 1 time a day?
Running daily on this with 16 chars, everyday I get just 1 spawn in the best case.
But never ever i've got 2 spawns a day
