Dieser Erfolg ist mit lvl 100 oder 110 sehr leicht (ich hab ihn mit 110 gemacht)

Einfach zum Boss hinlaufen, trash kann umgangen werden, in den Boss reinstellen um ihn zu pullen, er ruft immer 4 krokilisken auf einmal zu ihm

Warten bis 5x4 krokilisken da sind, aoe schaden machen und erfolg einheimsen

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like......

Victory. Someday this war's gonna end...

List of facts for this fight:

The crocolisks spawn on groups of four
They will have a random party member targetted with Scent of Blood, which means a lot of initial aggro towards this party member
They apply a stacking bleed debuff that can get nasty later on the fight
They CAN be taunted by the tank or a bulkier DPS to hold or kite the crocolisks around
The safest way to do this achievement is by having a ranged DPS kiting the crocos
Having an offtank could work but it's risky because of the debuff
When the 5th group comes with the last 4 crocolisks, group them all together and AoE them down, they do not have much health so won't be a big problem

Good luck on this achievement!

Kommentar von 710078

Our group did this achievement by having all the dps mount up, with the healer and tank taking on the boss. With luck, all the waves will attack the mounted players making kiting incredibly easy. Once the required amount was met, we aoe'd the adds down.

It also makes this easier to have a mage to cast Ring of Frost, or a hunter to use Frost Trap.

This is actually also doable by tanking the boss in the water to either the left or right hand side with everyone else further back in the water. If the tank is just about swimming, the boss does not despawn and the little crocs get evade bugged. When enough groups have spawned, climb out of the water and AoE them down.

Kommentar von rzzr

Blue post as of 3rd Jan.
Lockmaw's Frenzied Crocolisks have learned how to swim! In addition, Vicious Poison was doing too much damage and has been reduced slightly.

Kommentar von 637507

Statue bug still works, you can have everyone at statue, including tank and just wait there.

Kommentar von 275624

I did this achievement easy with a guildgroup and my 3 seater mammoth mount.

we had our tank (bear) tank the boss to the left side of the field near the water, with the healer standing about 10 yards behind him. We placed the healer behind the tank so the tank could pick up the little adds & kill them off when the scent was on the healer.

the others got on the mammoth, which makes kiting a lot less hectic, since all adds chased the mammoth.

dps start off on the platform where you first meet augh. wait till the adds are on the platform on the right side. Once they're up there, jump off and make a big slow circle counter clockwise.
your dps shouldn't get hit. If there would be an accidental hit, you just keep kiting and have your healer throw a heal when you pass them.

Since the dps in the seats have nothing to do while kiting, have them put a mark on 1 of the crocs per packs to keep track of the amount of packs. you get 4 per pack, so 5 marks will give you 20 crocs. we used 6 marks to be sure we had enough adds.

once you got enough, move to the tank & healer and go crazy on the crocs. we lost our mage after a few seconds of aoe'ing the adds, but managed to get the achievement & killed off the boss.

Kommentar von stoneybaby

While you can cheese this cheevo now by standing on the croc statues, we did it early on in the xpac and made a guide video about our kiting strategy. In the event Blizz takes away the cheesemode, definitely check out the short video below outlining how to nail this:

May all your hits be crits!

Kommentar von hwatts47

Thanks, Stoneybaby!

Kommentar von 180543

Just did this. We had our entire group stand up on the statues (seems to only cause the adds to evade, not the boss). We simply waited until there were enough adds, jumped down, had the tank AoE taunt, and AoE'd down the adds. We wiped, but we got the achievement.

Kommentar von 724381

No need to use exploits to do this achievement. The statue method is for fail players and will certainly get a hotfix just like the water did.

Easiest way to do the achievement normally:
1. paladin tank
2. adds come in packs of 4, so righteous defense 3 and hand of reckoning the last. Use holy wrath to establish threat on them all when they get close. This is a low damaging ability that will still generate enough threat to keep them off the healer for the remainder of the fight.
3. repeat this 5 times.

The tank if he uses nameplates correctly can even take each croc down to 10% or so before the time comes to aoe them all, guaranteeing you the achievement.

The bleed debuff is not significant damage, and a properly gemmed tank with high mastery will have no problem tanking all 20 adds.

Kommentar von Liax

The statue exploit was fixed by 4.0.6.

Kommentar von Calda

Ok, so I just completed this, and it sure is worse Post patch :P

Our setup was
Paladin Tank
Mage (fire)
Warrior(fury)
Druid(resto)
Druid(resto) (me)

So yes, we used two healers, due to the insane amount of healing required after bugging got removed.

We placed the tank in the middle between where he spawns, and the stairs with previous trash.

All others, except me (who was stealthed), and the tank (who was obviously tanking), were on their mounts.
The reason for this is that he doesn't cast Scent of Blood on his highest aggro target. So after 2 scent of bloods, with the mage, warr and other druid healer running around with 8 adds, I popped out of stealth, and started healing the tank, and cleansing poisons.

When we got around 16 adds, the mage jumped off, and started freezing the ones he, warr and druid had on him, making those three able to get in position, which was ofc on top of the tank. Me and the other druid started spam healing the tank and dps, while the mage, warrior and paladin nuked the adds.

We got the achievement on our second attempt of doing it this way, as we had tried many other tacticts before... Proably around 10-12 wipes -_-

So it's doable, but might be a little hard :)

Kommentar von true89

I've done this achievement in a way that, to me, seems pretty interesting yet fairly simple.

We did this today, after 4.0.6 patch and the fixes that it brought that made this somehow easier, with two LFM pugs, and a quite random setup:

(me) Feral tank
(my m8) Holy paladin
(my gf) Affli lock
(pug1) Don't even know what Rogue
(pug2) Frost DK

After trying some of the other tacts written here, I came to the conclusion that we would've either had to organize ourselves or think something that would've fit our group. I've seen that when you bring the boss at the corridor through which you enter his area, it resets.

*****************************************************************************************************

Strategy that we have used

The three dps, waited inside the tunnel, almost at the end of it, for a signal from me to come at me (SQUARE marked) and dps the add down.

Me and the paladin instead were together in the boss area, he taunting every time I gave him the signal to (30 secs) so that I would get the debuff and therefore would be forced to tank the crocs. At the pull, I did faerie fire and he taunted immediatly after, until I taunted back once the first Scent of Blood was up on me. We repeated the taunting strategy until 16 crocs were up on me (I have kited them a little, expecially being a worgen thus having 3 movement speed increasing abilities) I started to call the dps to run at me, so that when the crocs were really 16 (this time the pally didn't taunt, couldn't stop healing at all) we would all be in the same spot and be ready to dps the add down - so we did, so we got the achievement, and then killed the boss in the normal way.

*****************************************************************************************************

Hope this helps puggers and generally who is going to do this achievement post 4.0.6.

edited to make it more clear where the strat starts.

Kommentar von 255254

One method that no one has mentioned is the prot pally reliable taunts.

The difficulty behind this achievement is to gather up 20 corcs without having people getting hit too much.
Well, a protection paladin trivializes this achievement.

As the tank, all I did was tanking the boss in the center. Every time four crocs would show up, I would target any of them and cast Rechtschaffene Verteidigung. This would make three of the four corcs attack me. I would then cast Hand der Abrechnung on the other croc which still went for the party member and Tada! they are all attacking me.

Both taunts have a 8 seconds cool down, which is more than enough to be able to taught every single spawn.

Now what we had to do was to not kill the boss too fast =P

Kommentar von Giacomo

We tried ALL 5 on mounts - including me as the TANK with a lightwell down, I ran into Lockmaw and then just kited him while everyone else kited till we had 20 - then TIME WARP.

Kommentar von TADMG

I just did this post patch (You cannot use the 2 Gator Statues anymore).

Group Comp
Prot Warrior
Resto Druid x2
Demo Lock
Rogue

I the (the demo lock) had adds on me most of the time, so I basically just kited them, using my portal when available. The tank picked up what she could, and the 2 druids kept me up when needed. Basically, having 2 healers made this really easy, combined with the ability to teleport/blink, or any other things that can get you some distance on the mobs.

Kommentar von silkfire

The achivement requires another tactic post-patch 4.0.6. Doable with a 3DPS1T1H group. Let all 5 mount up and run around in big circles on the field. Let one person count the Scents that have been issued. 5 Scents = 20 crocolisks. A Scent lasts 30 sec and as soon as it fades a new one will be issued; the first one is issued after 30 sec so this means you will have 20 crocs after 3 min into the fight.

On the 3rd Scent - let your healer and tank dismount while the 3 dps keep running around avoiding to get hit. The healer heals the tank and any occasional member who get damaged too much.

On the 5th Scent. All gather up at the stairs. It's now extremely important that all of the crocs are at the same spot - you really need all 20! If you got a mage - Frost Nova them. Now just AoE normally but let the mage or shaman Time Warp/Bloodlust.

The whole fight is made easier from start to 3rd Scent if your healer is a Holy priest that puts down a Lightwell. Let only the really damaged ones use the Lightwell or it will disappear too soon.

Good luck!

Kommentar von 436634

The main issue with this achievement is the healer can not have the scent unless its the last one, and even with that its very difficult.

The main problem is his Viscous Poison. After about 2 scents, I had to dismount to dispel, or have my healer dismount and dispel/heal me up. If he got the Scent, then it was over. Even with Righteous Defense and Hand of Reckoning, it wasn't enough to keep the crocs off him for long. Eventually he would pull aggro from the crocs following the DPS due to his healing.

Its not as easy as many say it is. You really need luck on your side. We got close a couple times though.

Kommentar von Omarion1

I just did it with my guildies with this composition:

-Prot Warrior
-Boomkin
-Mage
-Hunter (me)
-Priest

The Priest set out a Lightwell before the fight, then we all mounted up. Warrior aggrod Lockmaw and started running in circles, DPS and Healer stood on the stairs in front of the treasure room. When Scent was on one of us he started running with the tank, using the Lightwell, that doesn't require dismounting to be used. After the FOURTH Scent we all packed up and the mage casted Ring of Frost, catching almost all the crocs and meanwhile the DPS stood still. At the fifth Scent we waited for all the crocs to come to us and used all our AoEs and Time Warp. I have to confirm that yes, healer doesn't have to get Scent, or he has to get it for last, else things will be REALLY hard.

Took us almost 6 wipes, to understand the mechanics and to let luck be on our side.

Kommentar von guyshenjiajing

I just did it with a very interesting composition:

-prot war
-holy priest (me)
-fire mage1
-fire mage2
-fire mage3

our strategy was juz like the ones up there, lightwell put down and run. Once tank was on low health, he mounted down and i started spamming heals. Mages ran around for another 10 sec for the last wave of crocs. Then fire mage123 mounted down, and nuked it in 3 secs. we wipe only once (cuz tank put before i put down lightwell, don t do that).so my tip is shout out for fire mages guys!

Kommentar von Jaromor

Tank with two healers are dancing with crocs, both DPS waiting in the tunnel. Wait for 6th scent, because then you know 20+ crocs are where they have to be (gathered around the tank), then DPS rush into crocs, AoEing them down. (Tank should wait with his AoE, so they are synced.)

2 healers are needed to make sure tank survives that mess, and you will likely need them also for .

Kommentar von 834802

I didn't see this as part of your strategy, but did you use aspect of the wild for the nature resist? Could help mitigate damage from Viscous Poison.

Kommentar von Griffan

Someone in blizzard needs to expand this achievement.
" In addition to the above, the party must also traverse the Vir'naal River in a PBR, locate, and assasiante Marlon Brando with extreme prejudice. Harrison Jones will appear to give the party the assignment."

Kommentar von 761589

The easiest way to do this achievement was and still is, using a paladin tank. Pala tank uses retribution aura. Everytime the adds spawn, the pala taunts three off the scent target and single taunts the 4th. The crocs come to the tank and start beating on him. Ret aura is enough to hold aggro from the healer without destroying the crocs, let them build up and hit you, then when there's 20, nuke. Easy.

Kommentar von TreeroyJ

The easiest way to do this achievement is not quite as obvious as the other methods.

Most strategies suggest getting the tank to run around, mounted, grabbing all the crocs. If the healer heals him because he's taking damage then the healer will grab aggro, and the tank can't take them back because they will damage the crocs and kill them. So, this method is by far the best:

1) Use two healers. One of your DPS will probably have a healing off-spec so get them to go healer.
2) Stack up together
3) No one do anything except the healers heal. The crocs will come and attack people and the healers will take all the aggro and will get damaged a lot, but because there are two healers it's no problem to heal up.
4) Wait for at least 20 crocs to appear
5) Get the DPS and tanks to AE the crocs down. Because you're all stacked up the crocs will all be together.

Easy!

Kommentar von jarjarb14

Attempted this yesterday with a group of 4, all level 85 (decently geared) except for a 90 rogue (quest greens). Was a bit trickier with only 4, but we accomplished it with a bit of luck.

BM Hunter (DPS)
Combat Rogue (DPS)
Guardian Druid (TANK)
Resto Druid (HEALER)

The tank and healer stayed near the steps that led down into the swamp and tanked the boss there. Meanwhile, the two dps mounted up and kited the crocs around the swamp. With a bit of luck, the crocs will randomly pick the dps more often than the healer. If the crocs picked the healer early on (croc wave 1 - 3) we would just run right out of the swamp area and reset the boss. Eventually we got lucky and we had an attempt where the healer wasn't targetted until the 5th wave of crocs. We all bunched up near the boss and did some AoE's until we got the achievement.

For us, the only challenge was the need for some luck, but the fight was fairly easy to reset so we just kept trying.

Good luck!

Kommentar von 367536

Soloed this achievement as a blood DK in mix of LFR gear and valor gear. Basically, all you have to do is avoid killing any small crocolisks until all of their waves are spawned. In other words, avoid using blood boil and heart strike after the first wave comes in.

The last wave is shortly after Lockmaw enrages. After the last wave, spam blood boil with all blood/death runes available.

Kommentar von Varothar

I did this with a group of 90's 4 dps and a healer (weird right?) anyways you have to wait for the waves, forcing them to spawn doesn't work. :/ So thinking it was a bug I reported it but you know after I realised (watching youtube videos) most the people waited for the waves. So don't make the same mistake us nubs made. :P

Kommentar von Thag

at patch 5.3. this does not work. Tried it yesterday and today.. frenzied crocolisk does not count to the achiev.

Kommentar von wetbread

Just did this as a blood dk in dps gear. I mounted up, agro'd him and rode around in circles until I thought there were 20 frenzied crocs. I hadn't done any damage to the boss at this point. AOE'd them down and got the achievement.

Kommentar von Shauolin

Did this today no problem as Windwalker Monk.
1. Mount up and agro the boss, kite him around in a small circles maintaining distance as long as possible until he either dismounts you or you need to heal. Use Healing sphere's and Expel Harm to heal yourself (Roll and Use Expel Harm away from crocs due to the dmg it does).
2. On occasion he may slow you so use cooldowns such as Avert Harm and Fortifying Brew to deaden some of the damage from the stacking debuff.
3. Roll as much as possible to maintain distance (try and stay away from using Flying Serpent Kick as you dont always travel the full distance and when you land you do an aoe which can just about 1 shot the crocs)
4. When you have enough crocs on your tail Spinning Crane Kick will 1 shot everything.

I just ran round and round using the above tactic till I had a ton of crocolisks then boom!, Achi.

Kommentar von Bathrezz

Did this in MoP 5.4.

Solo ret pally. Mounted, ran around in a big circle, watched the spawn points, counted up in 4's until i had at least 20 or 24, mount down, get my 3 holy power, DS. qq, i win.

Kommentar von DakMonkeyz

Did this with level 90 balance druid.

First I mounted up, I felt like the best idea was to aggro boss and kite while mounted. However, Lockmaw didn't approve and first hit dazed me :(

2 melee attacks to the boss, just for no reason.

Ran around in circles as cheetah, kiting the boss and waiting for 20 crocs to spawn.

After 5 waves of crocs spawned (crocs spawn in groups of 4) popd starfall and got achievement.

Kommentar von Anedill

They spawn at 4 at once, so 20/4 = 5, you need to wait 5 times for the croc to cast Scent of Blood, then nuke. :D

Kommentar von Urska

In 6.0

i was able to solo this with my shadow priest ivl525 just by runing around him, using the speed boost from Angelic Feather, and PW:shield ever time i can, also used Flash Heal when the boss started to cast Dust

i hope this tip helps someone ^^ good luck

Kommentar von Rosoe

As a level 100 enhancement shaman, be careful to not accidentally kill Lockmaw while trying to spread your flame shock to everything - because then they all despawn. Guess how I found that one out...

Kommentar von 1234076

100 arcane mage, 100 blood DK

The DK engaged the boss and kept aggro. I (the mage) just kept aggro on the frenzied crocodiles while I killed Augh everytime he came up there. Stacked the crocodiles 5 times (4 in each group) and oneshot' them with arcane explosion.

Piece of cake now :)

Kommentar von Tykes

Easily solo'ed as level 100 rogue, nothing to worry about.

Kommentar von 1453469

Soloed as level 100 prot pally in dps raid gear. Taunt the boss to start the encounter, afk for 5 minutes to spawn crocs, Consecration, win.

Kommentar von Rayya

Worth noting that dropping a Magma Totem on the group will not earn you this achievement.

Kommentar von Boxofbeer

Kommentar von Taroock

As of legion, straightforward as a fury warrior. You need the following: (Taunt, Whirlwind, 3 minutes of your time)

Steps:

1- Taunt the boss
2- wait for 5 Scent of Blood casts (each will summon 4 crocs)
3- Whirwind

Gz!

Kommentar von Chilcoot

As a 110 BM hunter, here's how I just did this.

1. Send pet in to proximity aggro the boss. No attacking, just proximity aggro.
2. Move the pet to an area on the side of the field of battle, kiting the boss with him. This way, I won't mistakenly kill the boss when I AOE the crocs for this achieve.
3. Stand in the middle of the field and wait for 20 crocs to come to me, 4 per spawn.
4. AOE the crocs down, receive the achieve.
5. Nuke the boss.

Kommentar von Snoutfair

110 Holy Priest. I was unclear if Lockmaw needed to be alive while AEing the 20 crocs. I noticed every time Lockmaw summoned a wave of crocs (4 each wave), he'd stop for a few seconds to do so. So after the 5th wave provided all 20 crocs needed for the achievement, I kited them while waiting for Lockmaw to stop and summon the 6th wave. Successfully AE'ed the smaller crocs and got the achievement. Then proceeded to finish off Lockmaw.

Kommentar von Punchnpie

I earned this achievement as a 120 moonkin with a sunfire. I wasn't (and am still not) totally sure whether Lockmaw could die at the same time as the little crocolisks for this achievement - it looked like they all died at the same time, but Lockmaw could have needed one more tick? I guess that's unlikely at this point. Anyway, it's possible to earn this achievement as a solo moonkin who is not able to get far enough away from Lockmaw to not hit it with aoe.

Kommentar von Senqi

As a 120 monk, I went Brewmaster, talented into Statue des Schwarzen Ochsen beschwören, and used it to pull Lockmaw. Then sat off to the side a bit for a few minutes while crocs gathered, then Keg smashed them all. That way you're far enough from Lockmaw to not accidentally kill him before the crocs. Got the achievement before killing Lockmaw.

Hope that helps!

Kommentar von CoraTheresa

Achievement Hunting as a 120 Druid, and I made the mistake of not having someone with me to pull Lockmaw away before hitting my AoE. If you kill him even a fraction of a second too soon, all the little ones despawn, so make sure you have a way to get him away from the group.

Kommentar von Arquillian87

Pretty easy. Just aggro Lockmaw without killing him and run around untill 20 frenzied crocs spawn. Then wait for Lockmaw to stop and cast Dust Flail, when he does then move away from him and aoe mobs. Be sure to keep count so you know it's 20.

Kommentar von NoobTank

A quick macro for Counting Crocs:
/run local c=0;for i=1,10000 do if UnitName("nameplate"..i)=="Frenzied Crocolisk" then c=c+1 end end print(c)

Kommentar von Lassil

As a 120 lvl druid , I waited all little crocolisks spawn, then mass rooted them, then pulled the boss away so I dont accidentally kill him, when he casts Dust Flail, I ran to the little ones and aoed them with starfall and sunfire.

Kommentar von 3verstorm

Soloing this as a level 60 Unholy DK (as of Shadowlands) is super easy, and I assume it is similarly easy with any class that has a perma-pet.
The way I did it was simply to set my pet to "Passive" so it wouldn't attack (very important), and use the "Move To" command on the pet action bar to make my Geist stand on top of Lockmaw, which aggros the boss to the pet.
I then just stood back out of AOE range of the boss and waited until there were 20 Frenzied Crocolisks attacking me, and burned them down.
Lockmaw will aggro to you only after you attack the smaller crocs, and will rush you at that point, but if you stand back far enough, you'll have plenty of time before he reaches you.
I managed to complete this on my first attempt, so easy peasy.

I did remove all of my gear just in case he aggroed to me early, but it wasn't an issue.
I do recommend using an addon (I use Instance Achievement Tracker) to easily keep count of the crocs and tell you when it is safe to burst AOE.

This method also works for similar achievements, such as Rotten to the Core

Hope this helps some people who are out hunting old achievements!

Kommentar von Sleazychicken

Solo'd as a 120 Guardian druid.
1: Wait for 20 Frenzied Crocs
2: Wait for boss to cast Dust Flail
3: Run away from boss during his channel, and kill the crocs
