the name refers to rock band Rammstein

Kommentar von Nerizor

Reminds me of the song Weißes Fleisch to be honest..

Kommentar von 99249

On a level 70 mage, he hits for ~1.5k-2k roughly. Does a 5 second stun and has a charge-in-combat ability.

Kommentar von 69921

Fairly easily solo'd as a level 70 frost mage

Knockdown~5 sec stun (Cannot be pvp trinketed for whatever reason, or so i think, and can get a "Windfury" proc where he hits twice type deal.

Hits for about 1200 on cloth.

Moves fairly slow, pretty easily kited.

Kommentar von Squirrely

After you kill Ramstein you have a few seconds to loot and heal beofe you're swarmed by about 30 non-elite undead from the blocked off exit to the left.

If you can't get them down in time then in my experience, the rest of the instance is a bust. After you corpse run back to the area they will aggro on you the moment you go through the first abomination event gateway and aggroes any adds around the gate you may have skipped, including Barthilas, and you're fragged.

I've had barkskin/hurricane fail to kill them as a feral druid and it went downhill from there. They hit pretty weak if you're in bearform but if you're pressed for time, through on some caster gear before they pull at all.

Kommentar von Lordship

To spawn him, you have to clear the room of all abominations. It is possible for the event to bug at that time, and, according to a GM, this happens when you kill the abominations too quickly. So, kill the abominations slowly.

Here's an interesting fact: Ramstein the Gorger is the reason why Nathanos Blightcaller ( https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=11878 ) is who he is now.

Kommentar von 79637

Solo hunter tactic for the 30adds after ramstein.

try to survive ramstein with as much health as possible at the opposite side of the door where the mobs spawn
heal your pet
lay an explosion trap
kill the first undeads that come solo, but stay away from the trap!
when the first group comes send your pet in, and tank a few
when the second group comes, send pet on them and feign death
now all undeads are on the pet; pull it on the trap; after the explosion immediately place a new one
now all should be dead...
if you made sth wrong you still can use volley and the strath water...

70 Frost Mage with 10.5khp, mix of Pve/PvP gear.

Pretty easily soloed, pop elemental and when he knocks you back Iceblock and nuke him when he's on your pet. Coldsnap and do it again :-)

You'll have to kite him so Frost/Ice Armor helps for this

Kommentar von 140297

Hey, how do you unlock the gates or start the event to unlock the gates to Ramstien?

Kommentar von 7963

Because you posted this so recently, I'll go ahead and answer, but usually forums and such are better for questions like these.

What you will have to do is:

Kill the three preceding bosses to open up their Ziggurats.
Kill the non-elite mobs inside each Zigguart.
Kill all the abominations in the court-yard, but don't rush it. If you kill the abominations too quickly, the instance can glitch, stopping you from reaching Baron or Ramstein entirely.

Good luck!

Kommentar von 150119

If you're having trouble soloing this and staying alive through the wave of mini-mobs as a rogue...

Pull Ramstein all the way into the gate room. As soon as you kill him eat/bandage and vanish in the corner with the barrels right next to the gate. The mobs will mill about for a minute or two before grouping in the middle of the square. At this point the five guards will have started patrolling as well. Stealth around the right hand side of the square and wait on the far north-western side just above where the water crate spawns.

Once the guards come running by, you can leave stealth and pull them. The horde won't spot you and you can then stealth into the Baron's chamber for your shot at horse riding glory.

Kommentar von 115982

If you're interested in lore, this is the creature that killed the first and last of the human Ranger Lords, Nathanos Marris, who is now a member of the Forsaken and resides in Eastern Plaguelands .

Kommentar von 57652

Can you use a Invisibility Potion to get past the 30 skullies?

I guess by waiting for the skullies to come out, die, run back, wait for the elites to run by, drink right outside the gate and then run into Baron within the 18 seconds?

Or...Once Ramstein goes down (fight him by main door to Baron) and you are out of combat use Shadowmeld, let pet die, wait for Elites to come out and run around, drink Invisibility Potion and walk in the door and out of harms way.

The question is...If you do not kill skellies or elites and are inside and down stairs, will you pull skellies when you come out of invisibility?

Any help would be great

Kommentar von 121748

soloable as fire mage with blazing speed. need good gear though. start with pyro and fireball, ice block when he stuns you and hope blazing speed procs afterwards :) get distance during speed boost, pop trinket + icy veins and burn him down. might need a pot.

died to skellies after cuz rats aggroed me near crate while i was regenning. embarassing ;)

Kommentar von 156620

A highly possible reference to the band "Rammstein".

Kommentar von 90272

I agree with FierceTrack, the name is too similar to the band for it not to be a reference.

Oliver "Ollie" Riedel on bass, Christoph "Doom" Schneider on drums and percussion, and Christian "Flake" Lorenz on keyboard, are three of the six band members in Rammstein. Adding "the Gorger" to this bosses name may be a tribute to the many nicknames given to the previously stated members of the band.

As to why they named an Abomination after the band Rammstein, there's a plausible yet terrifying possibility. I highly discourage anyone not prepared to read about the gruesome content of the article contained in this link to not click on it. There is no video to be seen, only a news article going ever the events that transpired, a history of previous cirminals convicted of cannibalism, as well as a psychological explanation behind the motives for both Arwin and the victim. However, the Abomination link takes you to wowwiki, a WoW database which I deem safe.

Arwin Meiwes is a German man who was sentenced to life imprisonment for his horrifying crime, which occurred on March 9, 2001. He was nicknamed the "Rotenburg Cannibal" or "Metzgermeister", which translates in German to "The Master Butcher". The Abominations of Warcraft are notorious for their cleavers and meathooks and consumption of not only living flesh, but dead as well.

The reason why the Abomination and Rammstein are linked is through the band's music video, "Mein Tell". In the video, Christopher "Doom" Schneider portrays the victim of the case and holds a leash attatched to the other five band members, whom he proceeds to drag through the mud. Even though the controversy may have helped Mein Tell rise to No.2 in the German charts, it resulted in Rammstein's loss of $5.5 million when Arwin Meiwes filed suit against Rammstein for infringement of rights to the story.

In conclusion: Ramstein the Gorger is very likely named after the band "Rammstein" and it's lawsuit regarding Armin Meiwes, a convicted cannibal. As for how Armin is doing now in prison, he has become a vegetarian and joined a prisoner's group favoring Green Party politics.

Kommentar von Chesterfield

The abominations keep respawning when I kill them. Very frustrating >.<

Is that the bug you guys were talking about?

Kommentar von 83915

Yes, and then the boss door never opens. I personally open a trouble ticket when it happens and wait. The GM can open the door for you (which is nice because then you bypass the aoe mobs).

Kommentar von 171565

Warning: Do Not fight Ramstein at the gates into the slaughter house square. There are some pathing issues, and if his knockback knocks you against the gates, sometimes he will path around behind you and through the gates, and he will aggro everything on the other side of the gate that you didn't kill. He has a massive aggro radius, and aggroed mobs have no trouble walking though that "locked" gate.

Kommentar von samarium

Regarding the abomination bug:

It only seems to happen if you allow an Abomination to path to the entry gate. If you kill them before they get there, it doesn't seem to explode on you.

I've run this instance many, many times, and once I stopped letting them get to the gate it hasn't bugged on me once.

What I normally do:
First, pull the closest Venom Belcher when you enter the gate. After it's dead, look out to your right and identify the Venom Belcher that's currently pathing towards the gate... kill it next. Depending on your kill speed you might be able to pull nearby abominations while you wait for the next one to begin its walk, but the safest way to play it is to wait until you can find which one is patrolling and kill it ASAP.

Once you clear the right side of the room, you're far enough ahead of the patrol timer that you can take your time and pick your targets. Just don't leave a Bile Spewer for your last kill; I find they do more damage to me than the others do.

TLDR: PATROLLING ABOMINATIONS ARE BAD, K :)

Kommentar von 232380

Took me 4 tries to get this right, lvl 70 ice mage in leveling gear. Failed the first time because i wasn't at full when the boss spawned. Finally got it right, sent water ele in let him get off about 3 shots before i started in. Full boar all the way if water ele gets stunned wait till he's at you then Ice Block. If you pull again before ur water ele is either dead or he is invis.

Kommentar von NeroSama

By the way, if you think you can slip in and kill the Baron before Ramstein, don't!
You'll get stuck inside because the Baron's door is closed until you kill Ramstein. :\

Kommentar von 140735

In my experience, the Abominations that precede Ramstein the Gorger only cause the glitch when one of them reaches the back gate. Therefore, you can rest at ease as long as you watch if any of them move to close to the gate. (I myself tag them with a DoT and pull them towards the gate.)

Kommentar von BDFMagefist

It seems that meerly running past Ramstein, to get to Baron a little quicker is out of the question. The door behind you locks, and the door to Baron locks, keeping you trapped until your Hearthstone is off cooldown as Ramstein doesnt reset. I guess what they say is true.. Slow and Steady..

Kommentar von Zazzy

Had the same problem today with Ramstein not appearing. Killed all the Ogres and nothing.....Put in a GM ticket and waited and waited, nothing. After a few hours thought sod it and hearthed out. Came back through the side entrance after reading all the above and took on the Ogres again but this time with only daggers, no spells at all. Not even Sinister Strike. Same thing happened so with the ticket still open I added to what had happened previously.

Within 5 minutes I had a GM explaining that I had still done it too fast and that Stratholme was not intended for lvl 80. Well I never....

I suggested disarming my character and fighting unarmed and his response was to simply let them hit me around a little before killing them. With that he said he would try to open the door and hey presto the Baron's door opened. Got the Baron easily and never saw Ramstein or his adds.

Just goes to show a GM can make things a little easier. Got the Strath achievement at the same time also.

Kommentar von 38292

Yesterday sunday 17th May 2009 at around 8.30pm gmt, Havinh killed all the Abominations, This boss decided not to show up, even though the door was open and the Portcullis in Slaughter Square wwas shut, after waiting around for a bit the Portcullis reopened but still Ramstein did not show. i then issued a GM ticket . im doing the Stratholme as a lvl 80 Prot warrior (solo) in order to get the achievment and get my rep up with Argent dawn.

Kommentar von nerkel

EDIT 08/09/2009

As of this last patch, Boxes and crates will no longer open the doors to the Slaughter House. It appears that they fixed it, and now you must kill all 3 Zigguarats, then all the abominations. My only word of advice is take it slow.

Kommentar von Siton

WARNING FOR ROGUES! If you kill all the abominations and sneak past ramstein while he walks out the door will close and the door to Rivendare will also be closed.

Ramstein will leave you between his dollhouse and Rivendare's room to rot.

Kommentar von ClanniaFarstride

Is it sad when the majority of a bosses comments are about the bug associated with summoning him?

i did all the dungeon 3-4 times,i cant go the room where ramstein is..... :(

Kommentar von 513901

He has an 89% chance to have a Red Rose pickpocketed off of him.
Random fact I had to point out.

Kommentar von 340556

Well,since no one said...

According to Wowwiki this is the guy that killed Nathanos Marris,the future-to-be Nathanos Blightcaller,champion of Sylvanas and leader of the Forsaken in Eastern Plaguelands pre-cataclysm

Kommentar von thetwink13

this is'nt the only heavy metal reference in wow...
there is also the horde NPC gorge the corpsegrinder (Vernichter Grek'lor), a reference to george fisher, stage name corpsegrinder, lead singer of cannibal corpse.
also, the NPC gravis slipknot, refering to slipknot, says a reference to the song 'wait and bleed' when attacked.
a lot of vrykul NPC's in northrend are based on viking culture, which is a big part of a lot of heavy metal...
there are probably many more references as well, hav'nt played wow in a while...

Kommentar von TheRealLink

Just went through Strathome last night for my first real run of the place and had no problems with any glitches. Granted, I don't believe any abomination ever got to the locked gate as I killed them one at a time relatively slowly but it's good to know that I guess there's a right and wrong way to do this.

First time Ramstein killed me against the left wall as I wasn't prepared for him to spawn. Simply wisp ran to the east gate and went in and up to his area again. He tends to stay right in the center of the Slaughterhouse a small distance ahead of the second gate so no problem there. Second time (and third), I didn't want him to knock me back too far so I did drag him into the lower ceilinged gate area and I'm sure at least twice, he did knock me back against the closed portcullis. Now even after my second death against him (an unfortunate lack of free slams ensured that), he never did go through the gate and just walked back to his starting area. Perhaps it was because I did kill pretty much everything he would've immediately aggroed next to the closed gate as I worked my way there?

Either way he didn't glitch for me at all. Simply ran back a third time, fought him successfully and barely lived. AoE took down the skeletons easily and I could use a potion / beat down the remaining guards without too much trouble as health had regenerated by that point.

Kommentar von 858333

The fight is really easy for a group of 5 60's.But after you kill him 50 undeads will spawn, you must loot fast and run right after.

Kommentar von 911815

Ramstein? Rammstein?

Hmmm...

Kommentar von DiscountDJ

A high possibility to get a Red Rose off of pickpocketing...

Rammstein has a song named Rosenrot, which, if I'm correct (Which I hope I am) translates to Rose, or something having to do with a rose.

Further evidence of this character's name being a reference to a great German metal band? I think so.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Where can i find him?

Kommentar von Thottbot

Okay, since nobody has bothered to say anything relevant to this guy, I will post something.

And hopefully somebody will input something helpful in response.

Prior to fighting Ramstein in Stratholme, you have to fight through a room filled with Abominations. Fortunately, if you pull the one directly in front of the cage you're contained in, the rest will come in a timed sequence of one or two at a time.

A 5-man group can do this fairly easily if the healer conserves mana. If you just allow the fattys to come in their own time, and not pull any but the first, You will prevail. Just don't get punchy and try and take off more than you can chew.

With Rammy, though, you have to be careful. He will stun whoever he is attacking with a 4-5 second stun that keeps them from doing anything during that time. If you have a pally in the group, make sure he/she puts a bubble of some sort on the healer, because he will go after them. If you have more than a 5-man group, make sure the off-tank gets in there fast to distract him off of the cloth-wearers. Rogues, be very careful not to take aggro off the MT, because you will go down in about 2-3 hits. Or at least ours did at full health.

Beware, though. As soon as Ramstein goes down, about 200 spawns will come at you. Make sure your mage(s) are at as close to full mana as possible and AoE the hell out of them. If you have a hunter, they need to AoE as well. Power Word: Shield is good ont he mages, but won't last long.

Unfortunately, as I just ran into, if the group wipes after killing Ramstein, the spawns are still there, and have some elite backup as well. There may be a way to get past this and get to the baron, but I do not know what that is.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Hes on baron side right before Baron easy fight in a 10 man little bit hard in a 5 man (or in a 10 man with 6 56s)

Kommentar von Thottbot

The word ramstein means something like battering ram in German, the bands name is an alteration of that and is also the name of a town I think

Kommentar von Thottbot

Rammstein actually means 'ramming stone' in German and their music is great

Kommentar von Thottbot

If I listen Rammstein while I'm playing WoW. I'm getting to aggresive. :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

iruyle, this just happened to me as well. I was down to the very last abomination, then boom. They all respawned. I have no idea what the deal is, but it was very frustrating.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Lol, should "Rammstein" sue blizzard for using their bands name? (I hope they do =D)

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I don't know much about rammstein and its origins.
The only reference I can make is the german band.
I don't like them cause they like Nazis to me.
"du hast" in their song means "you have"
"du hasst" means "you hate"
Yeah, and Rammstein in WoW is not an Ogre, but an abomination! There's quit a difference

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I find it hard to believe at first that someone is arguing about a german METAL band on a WoW forum, then i remember the types of people that i play with.....

get a life, guys. and a translator.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Du hast "mich". :p

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Yes, Rammstein is an Air Force base in Germany.
Yes, a plane crashed there (I think).
No, WoW is NOT poking fun at the plane crash.
No, WoW is NOT making any reference to the plane crash.
Rammstein is a German word meaning something like a battering ram.
Ramm = Ram, Stein = Stone
'Du Hast' is also German.
Rammstein is in Germany.
Seeing any connection yet?
Rammstein the Gorger is an Ogre
Ogre no likey anybody
'Du Hast' means 'I hate'
So an Ogre named Rammstein the Gorger saying 'Du Hast' shouldn't seem like WoW is poking fun at a plane crash. More likely its a techy/designer paying homage to the band Rammstein...a German metal band which conveniantly had a hit in the US named 'Du Hast'.

Why do you guys fight about the name? It doesn't matter in my opinion. Btw, out of the 3 times I have beaten this guy, he only has dropped 1 blue and 2 greens all in 1st run -_-.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

I've never seen them drop off of Ramstein. I have, however, seen them drop off a random trash mob in DStrat. That drop took place after 1.10 however.

Ran this guy four times with a 70 feral in T5 - took about 20-25 minutes to knock out the towers and clear the trash to make him spawn. He dropped the cloth shoulders twice, the shield once and the staff once and some misc greens and stitching.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

RAMMSTEIN=TEH UBERPWNAGE. IF U DONT LIKE EM GO BLOW SOME GOATS. IN OTHER WORDS YOUR MOM.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

In fact,

that hommage ain't that funny. Ramstein is the name of the US-Airforce-Base in Germany, where during a flight show a jet crashed down and killed/injured lots of people in the late 1980s.
"Rammstein the Gorger" would be the right name for an hommage to the german metal band.

Zephren

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Okay. A lot of people are fighting over Du hast. It IS you hate me.
For example why it is you hate "You hate me to say I did not obey"
Now could It POSSIBLY "You have me to say I did not obey?"
Nein my friends, nein.
I worship rammstein, the only things I do not own by them *working on getting* is their T-shirts. I even have there Orchestra CD. Very nice.
I seriously worship them >.>
On a different note. These would be a great AoE trinket. Hopefuly when I run next time I shall get. I hope I shall.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

oh noes!11! it's ram, not ramm! clearly they're talking about a horrible plane crash, and not the metal band, because we know that blizzard MUST be poking fun at tragedies. why, I was grinding in auschwitz last night to get my lvl before I fought Gestapo, the 61elite boss.

Kommentar von Aurn

To get the gate OPEN... you must kill the bosses AND the mobs INSIDE of the Ziggurats. You cannot pre-kill any of these bosses or else the dread ward of naxx will not spawn to splash with the Stratholme Holy Water.
