Kommentar von Naightsain

Tipp als nicht Jäger - nutzt eine der Motten um euch einen Debuff geben zu lassen - optional lasst euch via duell von einem Spieler einen Debuff geben - lauft in den Nebel und Spammt AOE Fähigkeiten - die Motte wird dann getriggert und der Nebel legt sich!

Debuffs resetten den Schlaf Timer

Kommentar von Rayzar

In der Nähe schwirrt ne Motte herum...diese angreifen, sobald ihr einen Debuff von der habt, in die Mitte des Nebels ziehen und nen AoE Effekt wirken...Kann sein, dass ihr dennoch wieder einschlaft, beim Aufwachen aber spawnt der Raremob und greift euch direkt an.

Kommentar von Ahnungslos

Ich habe mich sehr schwer getan, diesem Rare zu begegnen...zwar funktionierte der (kurze 15 Sek) Debuff der großen Ardenmotte gut, um nach dem Einschlafen wieder aufzuwachen, aber obwohl in der Mitte des Nebels (/way 59,4 46,7)und an angegebener Stelle, konnte ich nichts anvisieren und daher auch nichts bekämpfen.

Es braucht also ein "externes AOE", das dann irgendwie zu der Position geschickt bzw. begleitet werden muss. Als Schurke ziemlich doof. Als Nekrolord evtl. mit Fähigkeiten der Monstrositäten-Begleiter (z.B. Fliegenfalle) möglich...bei mir hat es mit einem Beutel voller gruseliger Krabbler funktioniert, den Rare aufzuspüren und (nur indirekt möglich, da zuvor nicht anvisierbar!) in einen Kampf zu verwickeln.

Kommentar von Mahdison

Mit hilfe eines Magiers. Er ist mit einem doppelten Blinzeln in die Zone eingedrungen und hat den Rare mit einer Frostnova festgesetzt. Mein Pala, der den Kill brauchte kam dazu und aus die Maus.

Kommentar von Vermagnison

Used the Phiole mit gefräßigem Schleim toy to enter the area without being stunned and sent back out. Running around the area while transformed i was able to aggro The Slumbering Emperor. Also dropped Schlummerholzband for me.

Kommentar von Boxofbeer

Der Schlummernde Kaiser rare mob can be found in Ardenwald.

Location: 58.62 46.47
Required for: Abenteurer des Ardenwalds
Rare drop: Schlummerholzband

This rare mobs is a tricky to defeat. Genrally it is in the fog clowd that makes you fall asleep in few seconds as you enter it.
So, you need to hit the rare to make the cloud disappear. Get on mount and run into the fog and use aoe skill right at the mark on the minimap.
If you have hit it, Der Schlummernde Kaiser attacks you and you can finally defeat it to get your loot.

Kommentar von Maizou

For Hunters, there's a much easier way to get this rare than using the toy (which can be hit or miss and require multiple attempts with a 10 minute cooldown)

How? Change your spec to Beast Mastery and make sure you have a Wurm with you. Put your pet on passive for safe measure.

Use Augen des Wildtiers and move your worm directly on top of the star. Once it is there, use Bodenangriff. This should unstealth the Emperor, and after Burrow Attack ends, control your worm as a regular attacker. After this, drag the Emperor out of the mist (it's SUPPOSED to disappear, but it doesn't always), using your worm. After it's in range, cancel Eyes of the Beast by Right-Clicking it, and proceed to kill it. Stay away from it, as it can kill you very quickly with its close range AoE.

If the mist DOES disappear, cancel EotB and run to the Emperor so it doesn't leash and reset.

Kommentar von Buckren

If you're a paladin, you can Divine Stead into the cloud and AoE to get the rare into combat. Bubbling alone does not work! Took a couple tries :)

Kommentar von Zempre

Another thing for Hunters. If you don't have the toy because, like me, you just didn't grab it, here is something else you can do. Have your pet engage a mob and then use eyes of the beast to lure it into the fog and above the rare icon. This will cause agro to the rare since combat is happening near it. Drop eyes of the beast and beat up rare. :D Worked for me!

Kommentar von Rezinol

Demon Hunter's can use Spectral Sight to see him and tag him

Kommentar von Vonriel

I just killed this rare without using the toy. I grabbed aggro from one of the moths flying around nearby, they have a 15s poison that ticks every few seconds. The damage from it resets the sleep timer, waking you up.

I used it to get close to the middle, hit Wake of Ashes, tagged the rare and got rid of the sleep cloud. There are other ways I could've done it, but this one is pretty foolproof, and easy to reset if you mess up or can't find the rare in the duration.

Kommentar von sgtsolidus

There are probably much easier ways, but this is how I did it as Marksman without the toy(seems to be bugged at the moment).

Requires Volley/Barrage

Stand at the edge of the cloud and throw traps down in the middle of the area. The rare wanders a little so it could take a minute.

The second you see a trap trigger, use volley on top of it and the rare will appear.

Might be able to just Volley into the cloud but, since it wanders, traps make sure you get the right area.

Kommentar von amsuki

Warlocks: step up just enough to get "You're getting sleepy" and cast of rain of fire. I hit the rare with my first rain of fire, the fog dissipated and he went down. The ring upgraded to epic too. Good luck!

Kommentar von Siebje

As a Shaman, you can drop any targeted aoe effect totem to aggro the rare in the cloud.

I did it with earthbind. May take a few tries to get it right.

Kommentar von heartheus

Here's how I did it as an Unholy DK.

First of all, Lichborne didn't work, I tried.

What I did was I moved my pet to the Emperor (the NPC)'s location. Then, standing in between the NPC and my pet, I used Dark Transformation (with talented Unholy Pact), the damage from that link agroed the NPC and cleared the fog.

It dropped a nice ring with some good stats and also a defensive CD with the sleep :) Good luck :)

Kommentar von Kegatron

Priest - I switched to Disc, ran in, and used holy Nova around where it spawns and got it on the first try! Goodluck :)

Kommentar von Freye

Shaman - if you have Primal Elementalist pull your earth elemental out and just move him around the area until he aggros the emperor.

Kommentar von Femarot

As a warlock: I grabbed aggro of an panther with my voidwalker pet, he does an AOE with the hits, so I started moving him arround with the "move to" option, until I got the rare.

Kommentar von Konstapeln

I play warlock and I just placed my void walker in the middle of the cloud and used consuming-shadows - Verzehrende Schatten. That instantly got the cloud to vanish and the boss to spawn.

Kommentar von Spewer92

As a Hunter just throw a Tar Trap into the fog. This worked for me and the rare appeared immediately.

Kommentar von virgo02

For Hunter's : I tried the trap tick but it didn't work, at least for me. All you have to do is Barrage into the mist and the Moth will appear and attack. It took me a few to realize what to do, lol. I got the ring that was listed and it upgraded to an epic 152 :) Good Luck!

Kommentar von Triet

As a warlock, I made my void walker attack some of the local wildlife and then commanded it to drag the mob into the rare's area so it would pull the rare with AOE.

I don't know what the intended way to get in there would be.

Kommentar von lunawasdreaming

I just killed him, I revealed him (as a bm hunter) with Ardenweald's class ability Wilde Geister.
Just toss it about in the middle.
Flare didn't help me at all.

Kommentar von CommanderAmaro

So without all the BS tricks and toy junk just get the Greater Ardenmoth that is always near to poison you and it keeps you from sleeping. Have fun

Kommentar von Aeliel

As a Night Fae Druid, I pulled a moth and got poisoned, used that to run right on top of the star without getting slept, and used Konvokation der Geister. Swipe and Thrash weren't working, but Convoke did.

Kommentar von bleakraven

The boss is invisible, so you need some way to detect invisible. As demon hunter, I used Spectral SightGeistersicht to see the boss, then tag it with a range ability like Throw Glaive Gleve werfen. Do some damage to the boss and the fog will fade for everyone. :D

Kommentar von anthrussell

as a shadow priest i just ran in and threw a shadow crash at the base of the tree and ran away , worked fine

Kommentar von Jubyleee

As a WW Monk, I killed one of the deer near the outside of the fog to get 2 Chi. Then used Flying Serpent Kick towards the middle and immediately hit Spinning Crane Kick.

Kommentar von Lillyrose

Tried standing in various locations to get this mob to appear. Any kind of AOE effect, Rain of Fire, etc. aimed in the middle of the cloud will dissipate it and the mob will appear.

As a hunter I didn't have that, but I tried using my Barrage as close to the edge of the cloud as I could, and eventually the cloud disappeared and the Rare appeared.

Kommentar von Ravensilver

As a hunter, I ran into the cloud just a ways in, in the general direction of the rare (I could see the skull on the minimap), and strafed the area with barrage. You have a few moments time, before the sleep spell hits you and transports you away. The cloud dissipates and you can kill the rare without problem.

Kommentar von Heatsink98

Thorny Loop does damage when activated, so it will stop the sleep effect that surrounds this mob.

Kommentar von bandagegirl

As a disc priest, the DoT from Shadow Mend and the poison from the Greater Ardenmoth worked really well together. I ran in and Holy Nova'd and got it in my 2nd try

Kommentar von ebolashmo

Is there something you have to do before the Slumberwood Band will drop? I've tried multiple times with all three specs as Rogue and it wont drop.

Kommentar von Kevkos

As Retribution Paladin I used Nitro Boots from Engineering to get fast to the middle, then dropped Final Reckoning followed by Consecration. I was luckily able to hit him, another player was present nearby and kept aggro when I was ported out with sleep.

Kommentar von rukkyg

As a sublety rogue, I used sprint to run up the tree trunk at 59,45 and jumped towards the star. Zoom in on the minimap so you know where the star is really well. Then I used Shuriken Storm to tag him.

Kommentar von Shaitan051

Whatever methods you guys have been using don't work now, you're auto-sleeped when you get close.

Kommentar von Tiritto

How to engage this boss as Monk:
as Mistweaver or Brewmaster - Just use double Rollen to move towards the center of the area where boss is and spam Wirbelnder Kranichtritt.
as Windwalker - Activate your Xuen den Weißen Tiger beschwören and use Fliegender Schlangentritt to move towards the center of the arena. Passive AoE damage from Xuen should trigger the boss.

Kommentar von Elleynne

As an arcane mage, I just did shimmer twice to the star and arcane blast. Pulled him before the sleep took affect.

Kommentar von Lewtii

Just did it as frost mage by moving my water elly in and using freeze in the middle of the cloud.

Kommentar von Baegelbites

Took me a couple tries as WW but I was finally able to get him by Flying Serpent Kicking in and faeline stomping - any aoe ability would work! Good luck!

Kommentar von Deeptrance146

Warrior - Heroic leap to the center of the cloud (the mark on the mini-map) and use Bladestorm. Tags the mob and disperses the cloud.

Kommentar von Slania

As a hunter, I followed this method in the video and got it - use Eyes of the Beast, aggro the nearby runestalker, then run towards the star on your minimap, worked when nothing else did https://youtu.be/-6KVhdwFM-A

Kommentar von BenjaminT

Hunter's barrage works great here. Just run in, spraying towards the middle and you'll tag the mob and be able to fight without fog.

Kommentar von Jykon

Warriors - Heroic leap to the center, and alternatively from bladestorm, you can spam click whirlwind around the area. Worked for me instantly.

Kommentar von ZombieEris

I was able to get the moth to trigger on a holy priest, by having divine star and standing at roughly 58 46 right inside the cloud. It took me about 3 times to get it right.

Kommentar von Lightingfist

If your necrolord and doing this for the Freundliche Krabbeltiere you can use Flytrap to rush in and use his cleave ability to pop him out

Kommentar von Argyrion

Mobs now evade as soon as you trigger sleep rendering poison strat not viable
You can still use movement increase + AoE to aggro the rare which despawns the cloud
I did it as a Paladin with Divine steed + Wake of Ashes
Possibly will work with Hunter aspect of cheetah + disengage + volley/barrage, Dh vengefull retreat + felrush/inferno leap and so on.

Kommentar von Toffi23

I just pulled and killed it using a goblin glider. There is high ground made of tree bark next to the mist. I flought into the center of the mist while using aoe when I hit the ground. I aggroed the rare and the mist disappeared.

Kommentar von Monomatapa

As a lock:
Demonic gateway to the center, from the edge of the cloud, followed by rain of fire.
Worked like a charm.

Kommentar von Abzu

As a druid I got on the bark from hibernal hollow leaped into the center of the fog(Wild charge) which caused the moth to spawn, I targeted it and was ported out but was able to go back in and attack before i got slept.

Kommentar von Shardsy

I guess that the toy everyone is referring to is Phial of Ravenous Slime

Kommentar von skip029

Just did this on my Demon Hunter. I walked in on the path, let it sleep me. When I woke up, I ran in, got the SLEEPY DEBUFF, dropped Sigil of Flame as far in front of me as I could, it hit the Emperor and when I fell asleep and woke back up, he was there and I killed him for the Slumberwood Band.

Kommentar von Oredigger

I cast Ashen Hollow and it revealed him

Kommentar von daemonka

Get a from one of the Spriggan mobs then use it before you get into the cloud. It will damage you every second and will not let you fall asleep. If you stay around where the rare is marked at it will become visible. Use this method if you don't have a class specific ability that works.

Kommentar von Sleepless

As a rogue, I used Sprint to run toward the map marker and started using Fan of Knives after about a second or a second and a half as I kept running.

Kommentar von Taijun2

For the unholy Death Knights. Send your pets into the cloud so they are standing near the spawn, use anti-magic shell to get further in, then put death and decay down close to the spawn mark. I still fell asleep and got ported out once anti-magic shell wore off, but the rare was revealed by my death and decay and my pets tagged it for me. The fog cleared so then I was able to go and kill the rare.

Kommentar von Amelaclya

I found a really easy way to do this as a hunter, after all of the other suggested methods failed me.

Use the "go to" command to send your pet into the middle of the fog, then misdirect a nearby mob to the pet. Have the pet fight it, and the rare will aggro, dispersing the cloud.

Kommentar von Varix12

Welp. Finally, after mini-craftiness from a BM hunter without the toy and when the eyes of the beast thing didnt work..just moved my pet out there and put mobs on him, the Rare gets a third down in health and then evades. I've tried 3 times, and trying to be aware of where I am, as I'm sure that matters, pet aggro crap like that. it's weird. And frapping annoying. Frack.

Kommentar von heartshinegirl

The best way to get this rare by Warlocks (better than using Rain of Fire) is to send your Voidwalker or Voidlord into the middle of the cloud and then command it to do the spell: Consuming Shadows (drains 104 health from all nearby enemies) this is amazing at pulling this rare, and usually get it on the first go. With Rain of Fire taking dozens of goes, and not as successful, using the pet works perfectly!

Kommentar von alpanhell

As an spriest I didn't have any aoe I could use. So I had to switch to disc priest and use holy nova (along with the poison debuff from the moth) and then kill the rare as disc which was not fun.

I was able to get the rare to show up using Fear as an spriest once, but I immediately went to sleep and wasn't able to move until rare was vanished again.

Kommentar von Veliore

If you are a priest, you can also pull him by using Mass Dispel at his location after you get to his location with the moth DoT.

Kommentar von TheKartoon

The moth trick doesn't seem to work anymore, as a druid I just dashed in and thrashed on the mark. Travel form and mounts don't work either.

Kommentar von Liike

Heroic Leap + Bladestorm worked.

Kommentar von chaostorm

Approach the cloud from the tree bark side, not the clearing side. Der Schlummernde Kaiser is closer to that edge of the cloud. My death and decay worked from there.

Kommentar von Ipalon

Easiest way for a Hunter to do this is to just throw a tar trap into the middle of the clearing. Done it three times now and you don't even need to enter the sleep field.

Kommentar von Kitiala

Did it today on my rogue. Mounted and jumped in, used Soulshape (signature ability of the Night Fae) which ports you forward then fan of knives.

Kommentar von Faradize

if you are Necrolord, then run in with an npc from Abomination factory, he will aggro it, and kite to you while you are asleep

Kommentar von sirloper

I didn't have a loop, and the "get the moth to poison you" trick didn't work either. So as a Night Fae druid I ran in and Convoke the Spirits (Took 3 tries to actually get lucky enough to be close enough to damage the rare) and it eventually worked. The fog lifts as soon as you do any damage to him at all.

Kommentar von Angraad

If you are a warrior you can get toxin from nearby moth then use heroic leap to the center of the grove around 59.5 46.7 then cast your Herausforderungsruf

Kommentar von Kortona

Get a friend and start duel, put DoTs on each other and simply walk in. Kill. Done.
Thanks to Mylonian for the awesome idea.

Kommentar von MystiInferno

Seems any AoE will work, so long as you hit the guy. I used Barrage as a BM hunter and Earthquake as a Ele Shaman, though I it was an annoyance to build the up the maelstrom to cast it on other stuff around it.

Kommentar von alpanhell

I did this on quite a few toons and it's not as easy as everyone makes it out to be.

I used the poison you get from the various moths and it doesn't last long and the tick takes awhile so you still can fall asleep for short periods interrupting you.

The hardest part is that the rare is not exactly where it says on the map, it patrols a bit. So you're likely going to have to try multiple times

Kommentar von Horaxlfa

As a monk I chi torpedoed to the middle of the cloud, used my faeline stomp and aggroed the boss.

Kommentar von AmethystRose144

I made a macro on my Night Fae hunter:
/tar The Slumbering Emperor
/cast Hunter's Mark
Then I used a speed boost charged in and spammed my macro. Hunter's Mark means always visible to me. So once I woke up, I sent my pets in to aggro :)

Kommentar von DisRuptive1

If you get close to the mob, you'll be able to see him but you fall asleep before you can attack him. I did this as a Prot Paladin (Venthyr, though that didn't matter). Ran in on my mount and got dismounted. Used my Divine Steed to keep going to the approximate location that the mob is at and cast Consecration. As I started to fall asleep, the mob pathed through and got hit with the Consecration which made the fog and the debuff go away and allowed me to kill him.

Kommentar von Morrioghain

For those who have taken the Venthyr as their Covenant;

Get as close to the edge of the mist as you can get and as near to the rare spawn point as possible.

Use Door of Shadows to get into the fog.

Cast Swarming Mist as soon as you materialise.

Run towards the rare spawn point before you doze off.

This was enough to cause damage to the moth and drag him out of the fog to take down. You will have aggroed him enough that he will flap towards you whilst you wake up.

Kommentar von yeti71

Leveling Arcane Mage. At the respawn point after you fall asleep, go to the right up the 'hill' a bit to get as close to it as possible. Locate the sweet spot just where you start falling asleep and back off a step. Use the Soulshape to get into the fog, blink twice, arcane explosion. Managed to hit it with the first explosion, and then it was a simple kill.

Kommentar von NoobTank

As feral druid, from where it drops you after it falls asleep: cat form, dash, run to the coordinates (I think I used 59.4 46.4), and swipe. It is slightly in front of and to the right of the base of the tree with fungus growing on it. The coordinates of the star do not seem that accurate.

Kommentar von Supernoob

I got an Upgraded Version of the Ring from this rare Schlummerholzband I did not see the message "Rare Item Upgraded" However I may have missed it.
The ring I got is ilevel 184 Purple Quality. 49 Stamina 50 Critical Strike 97 Haste. Same special ability. :)
Used Wild Spirits to aggro the boss as suggested in an Earlier Post on how to Farm this rare. Thanks for the Tips :P

Kommentar von Helianthus394

Death and Decay didn’t seem to be working for me, so as an Unholy DK, I used my pet and the Unholy Pact talent. I put my pet about where I thought the moth was and activated the blazing chains. Woke him right up!

Kommentar von Eluvia

If any hunter is wondering, this moth does keep it's name if you decide to tame it.

Kommentar von ydavis

As a Hunter, I just rode in using Barrage and it showed right up. Good Luck!

Kommentar von StansDad

For Hunters this is super easy, barely an inconvenience: Just carefully move in and find the edge of the "sleep zone", back up a step to ensure you don't fall victim to it, then having aligned yourself in the correct direction, just run in like Rambo with Barrage firing - as soon as one of the projectiles hits, The Slumbering Emperor will be highlighted and visible and you can switch to regular engagement.
Once you have engaged he's no big deal to take down. Good Luck!

p.s. And yes, it is tameable.

Kommentar von bkz0

As a shaman, I sent my Fire Elemental into the middle of the mist and then just had it use the 60s cooldown Meteor ability. Spawned the mob and killed it, easy fight once it's spawned.

Kommentar von feiorai

It doesn't look like it's been mentioned yet, but Taifun works for balance druids. Dashed in and hit it at the star marker, killed it as boomkin.

Kommentar von dawn22868

Getting the debuff from the moths nearby still worked for my mage.
- Attacked the moth,
- waited for the debuff,
- ran into the cloud and searched for the rare,
- debuff pulled me out of the sleep,
- tagged and kill the rare after that.

Kommentar von krhedman

This guy was hard to figure out because top post did not work. I'm a Ret pally so I went /way 59.38 47.75 pointed north hit devine stead then Wake of ashes and devine storm to hit the thing blindly and it worked.

Kommentar von Chevonne

Another way to do this as a hunter, especially if you are tired of waiting on cooldowns, is to use barrage. It doesn't need a target to engage. Just spray the center of the cloud. Took me two tries. Also I was standing at 58.73 46.27. That avoided the sleepy feeling.

Kommentar von SinfulPanda

I have killed this mob nearly a dozen times and I cannot seem to get it to drop Freundliche Krabbeltiere. The item itself shows a low drop rate, however I always assumed the lower drop rate happened due to not everyone being eligible for the drop.

Can anyone with a level 3+ Abomination Factory confirm how many tries it took until the Friendly Bugs Freundliche Krabbeltiere item dropped?

Thank you so much!

In case you are reading and the previous comments haven't fully helped you to conquer this mob. I am a resto shaman. I hit set a waypoint, /way 59.4 46.6, then grab one of the nearby Große Ardenmotte until I get the 12 second debuff. As soon as I have the debuff I run towards the waypoint and drop my Totem der Erdbindung Earthbind Totem down as close to the marker as possible. I will get teleported out of the area, but the moth will be visible and I will turn around and hit it will a flame shock ASAP to keep it engaged. Sometimes I will have to do it twice as the moth will reset itself due to the latency of the stun, but generally it works the first time.

When fighting, walk out of the blue circle to prevent stuns. If you bring a tank stitch pet or drop earth elemental it will keep the moth in place and allow you to strafe in and out of the fighting area without getting stunned, which can sometimes reset the fight.

Kommentar von sordidpeach666

As a Night Fae Monk, I just used my flying serpent kick to fly in and summoned Xuen. He agged the moth for me.

Kommentar von Stryxy

Venthyr pally here, none of the above worked for me as the guy was as mentioned patrolling, so I grabbed 2 moths which gave me enough venom ticking debuff to run, consecrate and find it, was coming from north side of the tree by the mushroom. Also as a suggestion turn on name plates.

Kommentar von VikToLive

If you're a Necrolord here for Freundliche Krabbeltiere, Fliegenfalle works really well for activating the rare. I run in and spam the Mindless Strikes ability where the star appears on my map. Even if you're put to sleep, as long as you hit first Flytrap will stay in combat with the Slumbering Emperor.

Kommentar von pekti

For holy priest:

Attack a moth nearby and gain its debuff (Anima Toxin). Immediately run into the sleepy area and start spamming holy nova like a maniac. As long as the debuff damages you, it'll prevent you from falling asleep and getting teleported out.

Kommentar von ElviraBanks

Necroing I think. Hunters>Mount>Run in the cloud>Barrage=Aggro and an easy kill.

Kommentar von Ootso

If you cant hit him with druid, cast tiger dash, run in fog and spam trash/swipe. When you hit once for dissappears

Kommentar von Darwynnia

I'm a Necrolord SP. I was riding Unity (construct) and I ran into the sleep area, and had Unity do their AOE attacks.

I got put to sleep and ported out, when I came to, I went over to where Unity was fighting the mob, and then killed it. I the mob aggroed on the first try, so I was probably lucky.

Kommentar von LiriellGarrosh

Ugh, getting to this guy on an outlaw rogue is a pain in the rear. The DoT from the Greater Ardenmoths does not always work. I got lucky in the timing of the DoT and the sleep effect from the fog around the rare. He was visible even though I didn't use any AoE, and I was able to tab-target him and use Pistol Shot which cleared the fog. It can be done, just keep trying!

Kommentar von Ectothrix

Demon Hunter tank, Night Fae. Used spectral sight, got close enough to him with Infernal Strike then hit The Hunt...collect loot yay!

Kommentar von smallsith

Elemental Shaman - kill moth outside sleep area, get debuff, run in, cast earthquake.

Kommentar von sshambar

As a warlock, I placed a Demonic Gateway, ported through and dropped Rain of Fire... best part is, everyone in the group can join in :)
... of course, you can always fall back to the Voidwalker Consuming Shadows trick too (but I found the gateway more fun!)

Kommentar von Zeither

If you are a Druid just jump in the middle of the fog and use Typhoon

Kommentar von Yanxia06

Any other classes without the toy, just grab the poison stack from nearby hydra and stand in the middle. The poison interrupts sleeping debuff.

Kommentar von Gaspone

Easy for DK's pop unholy blight and use AMS. AMS wont even trigger the sleep until it expires.

Kommentar von meganerd18

I did this properly with the thorny loop and I couldn't find the moth.

Kommentar von Deplore

Frost DK's just attack one of the moths near by, get the debuff, run to the middle & pop Remorseless winter.

Kommentar von UnTamed1

As a Discipline Priest, I has HARD time doing this with above ideas. I used a levitate & goblin glider from top of tree leftover to drop in center casting Holy Nova worked like a charm!

Kommentar von NickJ

Balance druid here and I got poisoned from a moth, did starfall and ran in, then it was pulled.

Kommentar von chillyspoon

If your character is reasonably tough then pull several moths so they don't die too quickly. I kept falling asleep at 2 moths because they would die and the debuff would vanish, but adding a third did the trick.

Kommentar von SATCOMguy84

Piggybacking off the technique that dawn22868 had performed:
Getting the poison debuff from the moths nearby worked for my Demonology Warlock.

Created a Demonic Gateway to the center of the cloud
Attacked a nearby moth
Obtained the poison debuff (To pull you from sleep)
Used the Demonic Gateway to enter the cloud
Threw down Shadowfury to stun The Slumbering Emperor
Tagged and killed the rare and the other moth that gave you the debuff

You may have to do this a couple times, as I certainly had to before everything aligned properly.

Kommentar von Salarro

As Marksman Hunter i could not see him with flare, but the talented Volley has made it easy to hunt him down.

Kommentar von ForDarnassus

FWIW, I got this on an Assassination rogue. I sprinted in and spammed Fan of Knives until I hit the Emperor. It took a couple of tries, but I eventually engaged it.

Yes, its probably not helpful for all, but for any 'Sin rogues out there, it may help you.

Kommentar von Nogador

As a frost mage launching Frozen Orb in the center pulls the mob and disables the fog.

Kommentar von niffboy

I dueled my wife who is a Druid, had her keep dotting me with Mondfeuer. Had plenty of time to get to the rare.

Kommentar von Kulrig

As a Venthyr Priest, use Door of Shadows into the center of the cloud and then cast Halo. The moth itself is not elite, so it can be taken out by a healer no problem. Casting Divine Star from the edge might work as well, honestly didn't think about it until just now.

Kommentar von Unlocky

I used Ashen Hallow to "un-fog" him.
Mount up/run in and use Ashen Hallow, I was able to do it before getting feeling sleepy and getting ported.

Kommentar von RossJay

I used Soulshape to dash forward 15 yards into the cloud then instantly hit Convoke the Spirits.

This brought it out of hiding and got rid of the cloud.

Kommentar von Michcioo

Warrior - just heroic jump in there. Simple

Kommentar von ShadowKittey

As a DH, ran in with mount to where star was and activated Immolation Aura and hit it

Kommentar von helic0pter96

Outlaw rogue -- I attacked a nearby moth then ran into the cloud when I got poisoned.

For Hunters out there part of the Kyrian covenant, needing a different take on this. Use the 'move to' ability to move your pet to where the 'rare mob icon' is visible on the mini-map. Use your pet as the marker, and place your Resonating Arrow ability on top of it, and this will draw the rare out of the cloud - thus making the rare attackable.

I used other advice given, like using flare, and this sadly didn't work for me...

Kommentar von Akajry

The mob must have a buff of Magic type on them to create the invisibility / cloud around them, as I did this on my shadow priest by climbing the big bark wall to the east of the spawn location, then casting Mass Dispel toward the base.

Kommentar von azek

If you're a shadow priest like me that has to hit something to AoE...

Get the poison from one of the nearby moth, place a turnip in the middle of the fog and Mind Sear the turnip.

Kommentar von Simia

This is how i did it:

1: Set pet on passive
2: Target pet (so u can see the dot)
3: Move pet to rare-icon
4: Misdirect on pet
5: "soft" shot on nearby beast (beast runs to pet)
6: Stop shooting
7: Set pet to defensive
8: Rare wakes, fog vanish
9: Kill rare and beast

Didn't need anything but bow, pets and hunter ability's
Wild spirits didn't work for me.

As an Afflic Lock I just had my tank pet grab up the nearby Runestalker, moved my pet to the middle of the cloud after he got aggro, and popped phantom on the Runestalker. Ran in and GG. Be sure to run in tho, you will pick up aggro from phantom and it will reset the rare if you're still standing outside the fog zone.

I just did this on my Arms Warrior. It was so simple!

I flew over the center of the area and dropped. As soon as I started to drop, I engaged Bladestorm. It hit the boss and the sleep effect dissipated.

Kommentar von alhardin

demon hunters- I used spectral sight to see the mob and then fel rush to run in and attack her to get the cloud to disappear

Kommentar von ArmyVet0409

Just did this on my hunter. I ran into the cloud and used barrage to get the rare.

Kommentar von deiXide

Necro Arms warrior - I found 3 ways to do this while farming Butterflies from this guy:

1) Heroic leap - a bit dodgy, I usually miss and get ported out.
2) Fly into the center and bladestorm-- again you have to actually hit the guy for the fog to go away.
3) Unity - get onto her back, run into the fog, and mash her #2 (beam) ability while moving the beam/mouse in a 360 pattern. Almost always works for me.

Unity (or one of the other constructs) should work for all classes too, so no need for an innate pet.

As a Night Fae Monk I just used Flying Serpent Kick to quickly reach the middle of the fog then Faeline Stomp to agro the mob and get the fog to dissipate. Easy kill.

Kommentar von Drizzt1969

Since I am a slow 52yr old USMC Combat Vet hitting the early stages of dementia and reading the comments which are excellent, but I had to do it my way Night Fae and not Night Fae as a Hunter... So here it goes.

1) Go to Tranquil Pools (stay mounted) and get 4 stacks of Triple bite from the Devouring Hydras (60.7/42.2).
2) Make sure pets are out.
3) Use Exhilaration and health pot since you will be half health after 4 stacks.
4) Before you become stunned, just before entering fog shoot flair and throw traps like a PvP who hey.
5) You will be stunned but target Emperor as pets are out you do the smack down with Intimidation.
6) Fog lifts and you then can commence making the Emperor another victim of your trophy mantle and get cool stuff too.

Kommentar von ZalidTheBur

It spawns at around 59.5 46.4, which is near the tree in the east of the sleeping cloud area. I find riding in and using an AOE in that area is the easiest way to hit it and start the encounter.

Kommentar von Qisa

Had to get creative with this today since I was a necrolord BM hunter at the time I attempted this so I didn't have any AoE that wasn't centered around my pet. Flare wasn't cutting it no matter where I dropped it. So I used the Move To button to move my pet to about where I figured the Slumbering Emporer was, then I shot a nearby mob with Barbed Shot. Since I have the Stomp talent, that caused my pet to immediately stomp the area he was standing in which woke the Emporer. Honestly surprised that worked. :)

Kommentar von Turkodos

As a druid, I engaged a moth to get the debuff. Then I ran into the cloud and waited until it tried to put me to sleep. Note that entering the cloud changed me from moonkin to 'basic' druid form. Since the debuff is still up, the cloud didn't put me to sleep At that point, I used Typhoon (you do not need to be in balance form to cast Typhoon). I tried this several times in which I cast Typhoon as soon as entering the cloud, with the debuff. I never worked. The first time I let the debuff stop the cloud from putting me to sleep once before I cast Typhoon, it worked.

Kommentar von BishaRampage85

As a hunter, you can bring a chimera pet then control it with Eyes of the Beast, then spam Froststorm Breath. :)

Kommentar von blackjack543

I used Dorniger Ring.

Kommentar von CarrionCarcass

Rogues can sprint into the area and use fan of knives(assassination) but you have to make sure you're right near the npc so you can hit it. Dies quickly so of you was a different spec you won't really need the abilities that requires daggers.

Kommentar von Chrisw6129

The guy is standing at about 59.39, 46.67 if you're trying to drop AoE's on his location or looking where to run. As a shaman I jumped in, layed down tremor totem, and pulled out earth elemental, and he pulled him for me, ezpz.

Kommentar von Aperient

For any non hunters and comfort people out there who still havent kill this rare, there is a twig right over this rare, just get to the highest point and jump down, fall damage will cancel sleep effect.

Kommentar von whsocko

As of 9.2.5, my BM hunter's gear causes me to kill just about any non-elite in Ardenweald really quickly. However, I also didn't want to remove some unknown quantity of my gear and take a long time to kill the rare. I found a nearby pack of runestalkers, had my pet taunt one of them, quickly put pet on passive so she didn't damage the runestalker, then used pet's Move To ability to go to the rare's star on the minimap. When the runestalker got to my pet, I cast Multi-Shot, which caused my pet to cleave and took the rare out of hiding/removed the sleep cloud. He's quite easy to kill with 9.2.5 gear, once revealed.

Kommentar von mugato123

As a warrior, I Heroic leaped to spot marked by rare scanner. This damaged him before I was put to sleep and then easily killed him.

Kommentar von agentrock

I was having trouble with the recs here. As a Necrolord Death Knight, I flew above rare, dismounts, and hit Abomination Limb. That worked for me.

Kommentar von kingconquer

So whats the respawn timer on this? Just followed the method to get it for a tame and used a cleave on it, had it appear and started taming only to have a rogue and war that had no idea how tf to get it to spawn deny me it for 4 f***ing anima leaves... watched the idiots fall asleep like 10x then they started clearing all the moths out including the one I was using for the poison. Dunces.. Anyway timer plz

Kommentar von Unpossible

Demon Warlock

1) Get close to fog
2) Summon Felguard
3) Move Felguard to middle of fog on top of rare icon on mini map.
4) Activate Felguard's "Felstorm" ability for AOE damage.
5) Emperor wakes up, agros, fog lifts, kill.

You may need to use a Health Funnel on pet to keep it up if you're not high or geared enough, and you may need to bandage yourself, but so long as you've got a healthstone and a soulstone on yourself, honestly you should be fine enough.

Kommentar von sirconnor

I think most of the comments here pre-date flying. Today (9.2.7) I just flew into the middle and aggroed the moth, the sleeping cloud disappears as soon as you enter combat with the moth.

Kommentar von Surgens

Warriors can use ravager to pull him out

Kommentar von Solaire

As a Warrior, I used Heroic Leap to jump on the rare's star marker and then a few Whirlwinds for good measure.

Kommentar von smudgeout

Somewhat easier now for solo druid. Send Celestial Alignment through the fog and out comes the Slumbering Emperor.

Kommentar von demonikpanther

I just did it on a 52 Arms warrior, flew into the middle on mount hit warbreaker he spawned hit him and the cloud went away. Took a few times doing it to find him, but in the end it worked.

Kommentar von Totemdancsir

As a new devastation Evoker, I used Deep Breath to get into center and the Tail swipe to hit The Slumbering Emperor, Cloud vanished and fight started.

Kommentar von Servian

As a paladin i ran and jumped off the south east side off the rocky formation then casted divine steed and was able to get right next to the tree and just casted consecration.

Kommentar von Monroe85

I was really struggling to figure out how to get this rare as a warrior post-Shadowlands. Blizzard has made it so higher level characters are pretty much immune to DOTs from lower, so no luck with the nearby moths or many of the toys. But it was as simple as heroic leaping into the cloud and bladestorming, hitting the rare before I was put to sleep. You have a couple of seconds so an AOE spam is your best bet if you don't have a pet class.

Kommentar von Zarilla

These are beautiful instructions, no matter which class and specialization you are in.

The most significant issue has been which direction you try to approach/enter the cloud.
If you try it from the north to south, it does not work because the NPC is far enough away that you don't have time to do damage.
Even with my Frost DK and a huge AOE area, I could not reach it soon enough - even when using the Abominable Limb.

If I entered going South to North, I hit him immediately. This happened with my warrior and BM Hunter as well. A priest friend, dropped in and just start spamming Holy Novas and was able to finish it pretty quickly.

Consistently from the South to North route.

Kommentar von DrexlAU

BM hunter, spec into barrage, jump in and start blastin'

Kommentar von Celestina

For Devastation Evokers -
Going from South to North - Cast Hover to get into the cloud, then cast Deep Breath straight away. This engages the mob.

Kommentar von TenMunzy

If you are shaman, just sprint in to the cloud and use Thunderstorm

Kommentar von LaffiBoozegnome

I fell asleep many times, tried to aoe all over...but nothing happened.
Saw that you needed thorny thingy to get in with the rare...
Saw how far it was to get one, so I just said screw it and activated my nitro boost on my belt (engineering)...
RAN IN AOED, and it revealed itself. I am certain I wouldn't even need any items to get this.

Kommentar von Kvercui

Fly above the strange cloud, dismount, get the fall damage, immediately do some aoe to start the combat

Kommentar von Kegatron

As a priest, I switched to a spec I could use Holy Nova, flew in and took about 3 tries to land on it, and spam holy nova to bring him out. Win win and he dropped what I needed off the first try.
