(Guide zur Horden-Pre-Quest)

Jeder muss "Willkommen zum Braufest !" vor Orgrimmar abgeschlossen haben.
Nimm die Quest "Rette das Braufest" von Schlürfo Blubberfass, auf der Straße südlich von Orgrimmar. Die Quest kann mit Gruppenmitgliedern geteilt werden, wenn sie "Willkommen auf dem Braufest!" erledigt haben. Abgegeben muss diese Quest beim Spion des Braufests in den Blackrocktiefen (BRD)
Akzeptiere die Daily-Quest vom Spion des Braufests und gib sie bei Coren Düsterbräu ab, wenn du den Kampf starten willst. Damit gibt es nur eine Chance pro Character am Tag (also 5 wenn man eine volle Gruppe hat, in der noch keiner die Quest abgegeben hat. Wenn 2 Spieler die Quest gleichzeitig abgeben wird der Kampf gestartet, jedoch wird damit ein Spieler seine Daily-Quest und somit einen weiteren Bosskill verschwenden.

Für bereits ~T5 oder vergleichbar equippte Chars ist dieser Boss einfach - wenn man jedoch schlechteres Equip hat (sprich, grade erst 70 geworden ist), eine echte Herausforderung.

Informationen über den Bosskampf :
1. Er startet mit 3 Non-Elite Adds, jeweils ~5500 HP. Der Tank sollte bereits an Coren stehen und die Adds einem DamageDealer überlassen. Diese Adds werden mit der Zeit durch Bohrer, die ca. 2k Schaden machen und bei der Position eines Spielers herauskommen, spawnen.
2.Bei 66% und 33% angelangt wird er Ilsa Düsterbräu und Ursula Düsterbräu beschwören. Falls der Boss schnell an HP verliert, können diese getrost ignoriert werden. Ansonsten sollte man diese töten (~20k HP). Mit dem Tod des Bosses werden sie auch verschwinden.
3. Eine weitere Fähigkeit von Coren ist ein Wirbelwind, der gecastet wird und die Spieler für 6000 physischen Schaden trifft. Er wird auch jeden in Nahkampfreichweite entwaffen; jedoch wird dies durch einen langen Cast dargestellt und kann einfach durch Abstand ausgelassen werden.
4. Die Elite Mobs werfen Bier in euer Inventar. Sofern ihr es nicht trinkt werden ihr für 5 Sekunden gestunnt. Also auch auf die Chatnachrichten achten !
5. Die Elite Mobs werden auch manchmal einen beliebigen Spieler im Raid für 6 Sekunden CCen, das den meist gefährlichsten Teil des Bossfights in sich birgt.

Ich hoffe es wird euch helfen und euch rasch zu euren Trinkets bringen ;)

Hes there to finish the Brewfest quest that you pick up after a dark iron attack.

Does anyone know the details of the cooldowns of these trinkets? Toldry mentioned they are shared with their badge reward equivalents, but what exactly does this mean? I know they can't be used at the same time, but can they be used in quick succession, one after the other? Thanks in advance for any info on this.

Kommentar von 112770

The Brightbrew Charm and the Balebrew Charm seem to be clones of the Commander's Badge from Netherwing Reputation. The charms are definitely worth picking up as a tank if you don't have both the Commendation of Kael'thas from heroic MgT and either of the 51 stamina Darkmoon Cards.

anyone know when the next brewfest will start ?

Kommentar von annerajb

anybody that fighted him on the ptr can post some information about him like complexity etc. i finded ahune hard to do because of people not being aware of their surrounding and not easy to kill the adds. unless chain ligthing.

Kommentar von Lemming

Blizzard's revamped Brewfest page seems to hint that Direbrew will also drop special mounts during Brewfest if your group kills him.

Direbrew is a special boss who can be encountered for the duration of Brewfest, and drops special rewards including epic weapons, trinkets, and rare mounts.

It'd be nice if he were to drop the opposite faction's Brewfest mount for the year, but there's still been no word on if the Alliance will get a chance at the Brewfest Kodo or not yet.

Kommentar von smoo

The ram DOES drop.

You can do it more than 5 times a day. We did it 5 times, then started to switch ppl, and ported them into the instance, so they could aggro the boss. :)

Kommentar von 215956

To get to the Grim Guzzler quickly and easily, look to the right just when you enter the instance. There will be 3 level 70 dwarfs hanging around the tunneler controls. kill the dwarfs and operate the controls (they look a little like a pile of books as mentioned previously). This will cause a tunneler to appear that will transport you straight to the Grim Guzzler pub. Talk to the Brewfest spy and then off to see Mr. Direbrew for a short chat and a punch up! Just like your average Friday night in any town in the U.K.

Kommentar von 65072

Hello.

My friend and I were going to down this guy for the trinkets (and the chance at a cool mount), but we're confused about what we have to do. We haven't done any Brewfest quests or things yet, are there pre-reqs to getting that daily you guys were mentioning that you need to down this guy? Where do we pick the daily up from?

Thanks in advance.

Kommentar von Liri

'Healing' trinkes do not currently share a cooldown. This means you can pop a 'healing' trinket and promptly hit a spelldamage one for a hard punch.

Kommentar von barak0

just a quetion. can i myself aggro him again each day or is it a one time aggro?

Kommentar von Tukar

just dropped http://www.wowhead.com/?item=37597 during his fight.

Was very surprised! Not a bad dagger at all, comparable to the Emerald Ripper.

Kommentar von 216039

We killed Coren like 10 mins before dailies reset and my daily dropped the Ram and 2 epics, then we waited until 10 mins later for dailies to reset and on my daily again the Kodo dropped. So as of this time he drops both Ram and Kodo mounts. Some Ret paladin won both. My group calls me the designated Mount Dropper lol, he drops both the Kodo and the Ram for both factions, just a matter of luck I guess.

Kommentar von Bazetts

He drops Swift Brewfest Ram aswell.

Kommentar von 64943

Ok, small farm team today went in, killed him approx 25 times (no one had wowhead looter running :( )

He does drop all the 41 badges trinkets, and...best of all....

He does drop both specialty mounts for either faction.

We are alliance and my friend got the ram, and another got the kodo, along with another item called direbrew's remote, which allows someone to port their entire team directly to the bar for the fight.

We achieved that many kills by swapping out our Dpsers to get more people in, and by doing it right before the dailies reset.

So, it is confirmed he DOES drop both mounts, along with the one hour cooldown "port" (it's a mole machine like the dark irons use)

also, you DO NOT need to clear the instance to kill him, when you enter, you can turn right and use the mole machine controls to be ported to him.

The adds are nothing to really worry about, an average tank can pick them up with a rotation of thunderclap/demoralizing and cleave.

He does do a whirlwind attack that hits very hard and stuns, with a chance to disarm, just stay away when he does it. (he charges it up, melee has time to get out)

The adds will also spawn by drilling in, punts people into the air, but nothing really to worry about.

Overall, he is the easiest seasonal boss to date, and drops some of the coolest loot, i wish you luck in getting the mounts, my farm team will continue throughout the event so maybe i can get one too :).

Kommentar von 133853

Dropped the ram for my mage on EU bloodfeather quite nice tbh but i wanted kodo >.<. can post a screen when i got time

Kommentar von smoo

To give you an idea about drop chances (I know its based on luck):

I did 32 kills of him since last night, and we only had the ram drop once. No kodo yet. :)

and with the 42th kill we got a kodo. :)

Kommentar von 112652

Basic Tactic:

CAN be 3-manned, 4 is infinitely easier though - tank, healer, 2xdps (an AOE dps is good).
Tank+nuke adds and drink beer when it gets thrown to you - ignore Ilisa, shes pretty much harmless if you dirnk the beer. However, around 35% URSULA will spawn, who has a 6 second disorient Barrel Throw on her top aggro. Get your 4th, weakest dps to attack her to get aggro and take the barrels, and when they have decent aggro go back to Direbrew. The last 20% or so is a DPS race, NUKE HIM DOWN, and good luck!

Kommentar von 53085

jus wanted to add, u DONT have to fight to the grim guzzler. when u zone into BRD, turn right. there should be 3 mobs standing over some boxxes. kill them, click on the boxxes, an it takes u straight to coren. i wont spoil it for the ones who didnt know this, but its kewl. 2nd, you DONT have to zone out to respawn coren. after his death, give him a min or 2 an youll be shakin a stick at his head once again. hope this helps

Kommentar von 53085

ok, jus noticed someone ask. to get the daily to kill coren, go to org for horde, i think IF for ally, not sure on ally tho. anywayz, go outside front of org, get the 2 quests welcome to brewfest (first tent along road, beside the ram event), 2nd quest run south along road an when u enter the ravine, get the first quest u come to. at this point, go to BRD, zone in, take tunneler on the right (youll have to fight 3 non elite 70 dwarfs) str8 to coren. walk jus outside that room an look left. talk to the spy, then go insult coren an pray he drops a mount (or 2, if yer a luck sunuvagun lawlz)
hope this helps

Kommentar von 216180

this guy can be 3-manned with a prot paladin, one good healer, and one good dps.

Kommentar von 29188

As of today (sept 20, 2008) He drops the Kodo for the alliance, Im assuming he also drops the ram for horde. Have only seen the kodo drop myself though(im alliance) Dont know if this is a bug or not, sure hoping not, i plan on farming the crap out of him till i get the kodo.

Kommentar von Kurasu

Techniques for defeating this NPC:

As mentioned above, he will spawn multiple level 70 (normal) adds on the group as the fight progresses. Our group found it very useful to have a dedicated add-buster (in our case a mage) to handle these, while the rest primarily focused on Direbrew.

Occasionally, he will summon his girlfriend(?), Ilsa. Ilse is a level 70 elite, who I didn't get to see do a lot that was particularly special, but keep in mind that I was DPS, so I wasn't the one getting hit. Corrections here are quite welcome. Hoqwever, killing her just means that she will be respawned later, so if you have a tank who can take the hits, it is better to simply tank her and continue the DPS on Direbrew, himself.

Direbrew will occasionally use an attack known as 'Direbrew's Disarm'. This can do over 5000 damage on mail. It is imperitive, therefore, that people don't catch aggro and move out when this attack is begun. He will also occasionally summon some 'spirit adds' who will throw brews at the enemy, doing damage, occasionally stunning, and tossing a free brew into your inventory. Yum!

Now and again, the tunneling machine will pop out of the ground in the fight, causing no damage but flinging you into the air and interrupting casting. Because of this, people may want to keep an eye on where they're standing. In particular casters.

Finally, though definitely not the least, Direbrew will occasionally hurl an aggro-dampening effect on the tank which will stun him for several moments, rather like a scattershot. He will then go for the next person on the aggro-meter until the tank recovers. This can be deadly for mages and healers, since his 'Disarm' attack can one-hit them. It is not difficult for the tank to get aggro back after the stun has worn off, but for those five to ten seconds (ish) your clothies are very exposed; prepare to protect them!

All in all, it's a basic tank n' spank with some adds, I find. Just keep your add-killer on the adds, keep your tank up (he doesn't hit terribly hard except for the special), watch the beer-flingers, and have a little fun!

Kommentar von Larch

I meant that two are available from other holidays.

Kommentar von jaldaan

Confirmed that the drops for Alliance.

This mob is summoned similarly to the Headless Horseman, but you don't need to reset the instnace. He will simply respawn a short time after he's killed. However, doing the quest to make him attack you is a daily, so a group can only kill him up to five times, if each group member hasn't done the daily already.

Out of the fives times I did it, the AP trinket dropped three times, the kodo dropped once, and the healing trinket once. And I'm not sure what other trinket dropped. =P Also, the boss drops an item that starts a quest, which can be turned in for Brewfest tokens.

Kommentar von Apocalyptic

Anyone know the drop rate on the Ram and Kodo?

Yesterday I got the ram on my 3rd run. Today, I've done him about 15 times and the ram has only dropped once. No Kodo yet.

Kommentar von 216326

Is this doable as a daily? I did it last night before the dailies reset, and logged on again today to do it again but wasn't able to find the quest giver in Kharanos. I was able, however to do my other brewfest dailies. Do I just go back to BRD?

Also, for what it's worth I was in a group that 4 manned it, with me (a rogue) tanking, while being healed by a smite priest and a resto shaman.

Kommentar von 147490

I can't see why anyone would join a group with 4 people that have already done the quest. If you have a fresh group, you can do it five times.

Kommentar von 81283

This can indeed be done several times per day.

I am somewhere around 40 kills since last night when Brewfest went live.

So far, I've seen the teleporting item drop twice, and the Brewfest ram twice.

Unlucky as I am, lost roll on all four occations.

I also saw someone writing in /1 that they had got a kodo(horde)

Kommentar von 216517

The Direbrew's Remote (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=37863) can be used to transport you and group member to the bar in BRD. It has an hour cooldown. Also very handy for the concert there :)

Kommentar von 216571

Alliance can get the kodo mount, so i assume horde can get the ram mount

My party got both and ram and the kodo mounts on our 2nd kill

the kodo looks SWEET.

Kommentar von 216648

For those of you wondering, yes he can drop both mounts at the same time. I was running it earlier today and after approximately twenty runs, I had both mounts drop off the same kill. I lost on both of them but I submitted a screenshot of it happening.

Kommentar von 216898

Pretty chaotic encounter, but quite easy with a t6 tank :)

Facts:
-He can be done once per character in the instance. You can also summon in new people. We did it 11 times last night using alts.
-As of now, the badge-clone trinkets do not share any kind of common CD. You can use them with your badge trinkets, or any other trinkets like http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33828 . As this is most likely a bug, it probably be fixed very soon.
-The two women called "Ilsa Direbrew" and "Ursula Direbrew" have significantly less HP than the boss (50 000 give or take), can quickly be killed, but respawn as good as instantly.
-Just like the other seasonal epics, these cannot be sharded or sold.
-To get directly to the bar, kill the three mobs just right after you entered the instance, and use the Mole Devices.

The Fight:
Coren himself doesn't hit hard on plate, tank healing should not be an issue in this fight. He has two abilities: The drill and a Whirlwind.
Every 10 seconds or so, a drill will pop up under a random party member, dealing quite insignificant damage, but it knocks you back a few yards and spawns a non-elite add that hits for ~500 on mail. The knockback effect can be avoided by moving away as soon as you see rocks piling up on the ground beneath or close to you. The adds will prove a problem later in the fight if not killed, as the tank has a chance of being blinded. (Will get back to that later)

At a certain point, Ilsa Direbrew will spawn. She has a very weak ranged attack, tossing mugs at people that hit on mail for about 100 damage, but she also has a potentially dangerous spell where she tosses a slightly bigger mug at a party member, spawning an alcoholic beverage in their inventory.
You get 10 seconds to drink the beverage before she tosses you another one, at which point you will be stunned for 2 seconds if you drank the beer and 5 seconds if you didn't.

Later, Ursula Direbrew will spawn, with about the same HP as Ilsa(~50k) This one is the real party killer, as she has an ability called "Canned" or something similar, which blinds the player for 10 seconds, tossing a huge can on the target's head. We could not seem to come up with a way of aggroing her, and the tank kept getting canned causing all the mobs including the boss to go for the next threat target. If there is a way to avoid this, please post it, as it is the major (only) problematic factor of the fight.

The strategy we used, which seemed to work just fine, is to just go all-out on the boss, ignoring adds. Stay clear of the drills and healer run to the tank in between whirlwinds for some AoE tauntage if you're getting slammed too hard by adds. This tactic should work just fine with a fairly well geared healer/tank.

Killing adds is another way of doing it, to reduce the devastating impact that a can on the tank's head can have. They're non-elites with pretty low HP (talking normal lvl70 mob). Of course, if one were to find a way of aggroing Ursula, that shouldn't be much of a problem.

According to blue poster Kisirani:

The drop rate isn't actually that bad.

I'll say this: if you've seen a mount one times in fifty, you've actually had bad luck compared to what the average is.

and

The chance of getting a mount is five times greater than that of getting a Scorched Stone in Heroic Ahune, which was bumped up from Normal.

Unfortunately for me, I have done it about 40 times and have yet to see either mount or the remote.

Kommentar von 148286

My party and I just did this today. He is very easy if you do it right. Im a Prot warrior, had a resto shammy, ret pally, mage (pyro I think) and an elemental Shammy. The ret pally consecrated and picked up the adds, healer watched party and mage AOEed when needed for the adds. Easy fight like this. The magic trinket dropped twice, the tank one once, and the mount dropped twice!

Kommentar von Lightja

The loot table doesn't include Direbrew's remote, which can be used anywhere every hour to summon a drill that takes anyone in your party who clicks on it into the grim guzzler right in front of Coren Direbrew.

killed him ~200 times today, drops were:
4 swift brewfest rams
1 great brewfest kodo
6 direbrew's remotes
3 direbrew's shankers
and ~10-12 of each bale/brightbrew charms

i think we were unlucky on mounts overall, and especially on the kodos.

every time he drops one of the above(excluding the charms) he also drops one of four trinkets which match exactly the trinkets that drop from badges, but have a pretty cool effect when used, i.e. the AP trinket turns you red for a second and does a whirlwind and the spell damage trinket makes you spew green gas like you're exhaling or vomitting, or w/e lol

Kommentar von 217346

Got my kodo on 47th kill

Kommentar von 156400

It appears as though this guy can range from 72 to 73.

Kommentar von 102481

The elite adds throw beer into your inventory, if you get 2 in your inventory you get keged, if you have no room in your inventory, you will get stuned for ~3 secs. you can drink this beer, and you will mostlikely only get one more.... the barmaids throw them, but not as often as you might think, the reason you think it starts at 20% is because it takes awhile for them to throw them at all the people. Also they seem to have no real time on it, its very ramdom when they throw them, and they despawn out of your inventory in 30 secs (not sure if thats the acctual number, im just estimating here). ive had my entire group keged befoer all at once, and ive had none of them keged before..... and me being tank, I dont get kegged as often as you would think...On another note, his "whirlwind disarm" disarms you for only a few seconds longer then it stuns you.... idk what the point is of the disarm after that. Also the tank and melee can simply BACKUP after hes casted it for 2 seconds (5-6 second cast) and you will not get hit. not to mention its extreamley easy to dodge. Coren also dodges alot, id say around 35% of the time, making even harder to build up threat. The best strat. i have for you in kill the forst adds that are with him, tank on coren all the time, once the room is clear of adds for even a second just take him down. If you have a lock/priest fear them mage can freeze them. the barmaids do so little damage at ranged just ignore them. if you dont have any fear casting guys, or CC the best thng i can say is treat it just like illhoof, with adds that come in small streams instead of all at once. This is a very easy fight people. Also to note, if you fail..... YOU HAVE LOST THAT CHANCE.... so DONT F UP....

so far ive done this 23 times. ive only had the ram mount drop once, the kodo never. i do have the ram mount from last year. ive had all but that dagger drop, and the trinkets have no shared c/d's which is halarious when you summon the good/evil barmaids with the trinkets.

ive now done this with 4 locks and a healer..... totaly insane... 4 seeds, the aggro table was jumping everywhere, we just stood at the edges of the room and bounced the adds back and forth..... BEST FIGHT EVER

Kommentar von 191792

I would just like to say i farmed coren for 4 hours yesterday and killed him about 70 times and we didnt see a single mount drop. I dont know if it was bad luck or the drop rate is really low.

~EDIT: On kill # 80 (my daily quest i will add) we had a ram drop and i won it. Still looking for kodo though i feel i have best luck with my dailies (got pipe for my lock 1st day, shanker 2nd day, ram 3rd day, maybe kodo next time?). Anywho it is possible to farm with a lock as every1 knows, but my group does it ethically: since we can 4 man kill him very easily we summon in people who are not yet 70 and try to get them their trinkets, better then just stealing some 70s quest. (*Rotate out one of your 3 dpser's DO NOT try to switch tank or healer every time especialy if they are not 70)

~4 man guide:
-Tank: Just tanks Coren (Duh!) **Omen seriously recommended if u don't have it go kill urself and every clothie in your party, Proper spec is recomended for 4 mans and long haul farming,
-DPS: I find it best to assign one person to take care of all the adds, hunters and druids do the jobs well with the better armor, but anyone can do it. The other 1 or 2 (Alt non-70, but they can and should stay as far back as possible) dpsers should focus on just Coren. At all times ignore his daughters they are a waste of time to kill and only do about 160 damage on clothies, and i never find their stunn effect to be much of a problem). **Some people disagree and say every1 should go on just coren, im sorry these people are morons and unless you have 5 mid-well geared 70s there is always a chance to wipe, the healer gets stunned and adds pile on. it only saves u about 30 seconds anyway, and i have never wiped using the above method.
-Healer: Those with hots or totems are preferred b/c of all the stun effects that happen. The only time i wipe when every1 is working properly is the small chance a healer gets stunned right when the adds pile on a clothie (it happens, not aggro mis management). But generally any healer will work. Also stay close to/ infront of the dps taking the adds to make it easier of them to keep an eye on you especialy if you are a clothie. **Again proper spec for farming to reduce risk of wipes.

This is not the only way to kill coren just the most effecient way, yes you can quite easily kill him with 5 unpropperly specced people, but any 70 with any gear can use my method in group of 4 and easily surpass 60-70 kills in 4 hours (ive done it), with minimal wipes. Just remember if you wipe you lose the kill and look like a moron!

Kommentar von 165731

Im not sure about this but are the drop rates for the mounts extremely high?
becuase i did it today for the very first time and Got both the Kodo and the Ram on the very first kill. And every1 rolled need on both so it wasnt like they just gave them to me.
So im just wondering if that normally happens or was i just lucky?

edit: sorry i didnt read the posts above me i guess it was just very very very lucky.

Kommentar von Tolki

To my understanding, the Remote, the Mounts, and everything else are on seperate loot tables. So, you always have a shot at the trinkets/dagger, but you also have a 25%-4% shot at both mounts and a x% shot at the Remote every try. You can luck out and get three items on one loot, but if you see a Mount or a Remote you will still see a Purple every time.

Also, the event is easy enough that you can bring random alts in in place of DPS that aren't saved for the day and continue trying for the mounts. I could accept the quest and aggro Direbrew on my 68 alt and it was yellow, so one could assume alts as low as 62 could start the quest (although the lower they are the harder the event will be, of course.)

Kommentar von 191021

Hey does anyone know how geared i should be for this fight.
I'm rolling a holy priest and i have around 12k +heals. think thats enough?

How To Farm the Brewfest mounts

Requires:
- A party of no more then 4: Warlock, Tank, healer, & Add control
- Warlock should come with at least 10 soulshards in his inventory for summons

Objective:
Your group will basically be set out to gear lowbies for welfare epics, while farming for the mounts.

How to Execute:
- Assign the most trusted in the group with Master Looter
- Type /who 65-69 to see who is available out there
- Ask them if they would like a shot at free loot with a summoning ready
- Once summoned spam a macro that states the terms and conditions, that anything is theirs but the mount because your group is farming for it
- Mark quest giver with Star and Boss with Skull and make a macro to tell them how to start the fight
- The Warlock should take a Soul shard from Coren from every fight so that he never runs out
- Kill the boss, remove the lowbie from group after he gets his loot, tell him thank you for coming, wash and repeat.

Personal Thoughts:
Once everyone knows the fight it goes fast enough, and lowbies are usually thrilled for the invite even when they don't receive the mount. In the past 3 days of the festival I have killed Coren over 80 times, seen Kodo drop on 4 occasions, and the Ram once and now have both of them.

~Happy Farming

Kommentar von Pyhimys2

yo, i got little question i'd like to ask, and hope someone can answer it.
Can lvl 30 enter to this Brewfest boss?, if like friends gonna boost me to there :p

Kommentar von 19006

can a low level (say 40 minimum to enter instance) loot the trinkets or mounts off him?

Kommentar von Seprest

moron dvalin mounts don't only drop from this guy, you can buy a ram and a kodo last year the horde could get the kodo and ram. Fyi I would def ride kodo over my amani war bear, it has goldish armor all over it and its skin isn't as dull as other kodos

Kommentar von 145270

It was hard at first but I got it now!

For those of you who are having problems killing him do this.

get 1 tank (any class that can) and a warrior.

get a mage, or a high dps class that focuses on him.

and then heals and another dps.

What you do is have the mage (or dps) focus fire on him,
the tank stands and tanks him.
and the other warrior does nothing but go around and kills adds.
the adds will eat up the casters and if you dont have a pally tank
its gonna be pretty hard to A.O.E tank that guy on a warrior.

the other classes take out him and the warrior focuses on picking up
and killing the adds.

(IMPORTANT)
when the add that pops up that throws the mugs, and barrels.
The warrior must get on it or the group may die.

and when you get some free time the warrior hits the boss.

you can prolly do this add thing with other classes but we try'd it with a rogue and he died, (not enough armor) so idk.

and other then that dont let him whirlwind you and tank tanks the boss.

We try'd it 6 times and killed him every time when (I was on my warrior) killing adds.

:D hope it works for u guys.

Kommentar von Otakahunt

You can kill him multiple times a day... even 100. You just need players that have the quest.
But with 1 grp you can only do it 5 times.

Just do it 5 times with grp (along with your quest), join another grp and do it 4 times, and join another and do it 4 times etc.

But its highly unlikely that you will be taken if you dont have the quest.

You can surely do him many many more times than 5. I did him 8 times last night with 2 grps.

Kommentar von alamar

I've done this fight about 12 times, and in each I've been 'Kegged' (barrel on the head) in nearly every fight. Throughout the fights, I watched my inventory. Each time I got an ale Mug thrown into my bags, I drank it. That did _not_ stop me from getting 'Kegged/Barreled'. It _did_ stop me from getting stunned.

So, in summary:
1 Ale Mug - No problem
2 Ale Mugs - Stunned for 3s (or so)
Barreled regardless of # of mugs.

The only solution I've seen is to kill Ursula Direbrew to stop the barrels entirely.

Kommentar von 195887

Do we have enough data on the drop rates by now? I have run BRD to kill this guy 5 times a day with 2 alts, and so far Coren's Lucky Coin (the shield) drops 40% of the time: I have seen it drop 2 out of 5 times every day.

I find that quite lame from Blizzard to put such a high drop rate on an item only 3 classes can use, whereas the other trinkets are compatible with many more classes, and everybody wants the charms and mounts. And what sucks is we usually end-up deleting them all the time since every shield class has one by now and they cannot be sold or DE'd.

What drop rates have you seen so far? What seems to be the drop % on the charms and mounts? I have run this about 25 times so far and I've seen 3 charms and no mounts drop yet.

why have you STILL not updated this guys drop rates? he has been killed thousands of times by now, what are you being so slow for, wowhead?

Kommentar von 219603

If you have the remote , You can talk to the goblin by the L70ETC band set up and start them playing. Just toss a /cheer at any of the band members, and boom... a free 5 minute 10% buff to all your stats.

Finally, a use for that buff.

Kommentar von dree

Can be done without a tank with the right group setup.

We had:
Paladin (heals)
Warlock
Rogue
Hunter
Mage (myself)

Hunter and Warlock kept their pets on Coren while the Paladin constantly healed whichever pet had aggro. Out of the five rounds we only lost aggro once, but the Warlock was resilient enough to survive it. Rogue worked on adds, Hunter, Warlock and Mage burned down Coren. Completed five times in our group with no wipes.

Drops:

2 Hops
1 Pipe
1 Empty Mug of Direbrew
1 Balebrew Charm
1 Kodo

Each party member should turn in the quest to this guy one at a time so you'll have better chances of getting some epic trinkets or mounts. 5 times max.

You can also join a party for this guy even though you are done with the daily quest but one thing: Keep it a secret or be a tank or healer since dps are really common in many servers. It really depends if the party can allow you to join though.

Kommentar von Sunwind

why are the drop rates still not updated?

Kommentar von 220379

starting from 2008 brewfest (for me anyway...), u can drink brewfest brew during the battle to reduce coren's lvl to a max of 68 (his summons to 65), making the fight a bit easier

however ull be dead drunk, so watch out...

gd luck farming

Kommentar von Sunwind

why are there STILL no drop rates?

Kommentar von lormike

Not sure but is this boss and his lackeys possibly a reference to the obscure martial arts film "The Last Dragon" refering to the main villain of the movie?

Kommentar von 10938

Drinking only changes the level shown on your client. It does NOT affect the battle at all.

It is intended as a joke. You know, alcohol and overestimation of one's own capabilities...

Kommentar von 143959

Compared to Ahune during the Fire Festival, this guy's a cakewalk. T6-level players should expect to down him in about a minute.

The strategy I've been using all week is to simply burn down Coren. Being a Hunter, I'll always lay down a Frost Trap to slow the adds when they try to hit the clothies. They don't deal much damage; I was able to heal the whole fight with a blues/kara-geared resto druid without ever running out of mana. The two barmaids are of little importance - drink the beer they throw, and keep dpsing. If the tank gets kegged, simply heal whoever coren goes after next until the tank can get back. He should usually be able to get aggro back quickly enough. If this strategy doesn't work, then simply bring in one dps to take care of the adds. A hunter or frost mage would be ideal to stop them from running around too much.

My biggest aggravation with this guy is he almost never drops mounts for us. We run it with just the five of us and our alts, but we've done it every day thus far and have only gotten 2 rams. We regularly get the Lucky Coin and Healing trinket, sometimes to the point where it's all we get in one night. All of us have the Bright/Banebrew charms, and three of us have remotes, so we're desperately trying to get mounts now.

Kommentar von 64943

Coren can drop both mounts off the same kill, i nearly crapped my pants when it happened.

Kommentar von 219776

Damn i hate the drop rate of this stuffs..
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=38288 dropps like atleast 2 times u go there.. last time 4/5 dropps was healing trinket and have been dropped to many times, i'd like to say that it has a dropp rate around 95%+ ? sux for everyone that wants a tank trinket or mount...

Kommentar von Ewonhemer

is there going to be a lvl 80 bersion of him?

Kommentar von 316564

I'm guessing with all of the chances to get stunned, this would either be really hard to 1-man or near impossible.

Kommentar von 366977

I got a bad feeling he's going to have even more health this upcoming Brewfest...

edit when brewfest started- i was right.

Kommentar von 349103

I have a feeling ol' Coren is going to drop identical trinkets to the Emblem of Heroism ones >.>

Kommentar von 332502

if anything, they might raise his lvl to an 80 elite and raise his health to like 230k or something

they got to keep it a little easy, otherwise, people wouldnt bother with it, which would make brewfest less popular, and lets face it, brewfest is the most popular one there is, and if it loses it popularity, and people dont do it, they might just end the event overall =P

basically the whole reason of exspansions and patches, u got to keep people interested or else they wont play

Kommentar von 413170

with the brewfast achievement coming in 3.2 being a feat of strength, does this mean the brewfest mounts will no longer be available this year?

Kommentar von 390375

Dear Blizzard,
PLEASE update this dude's gear to level 80 i beg of you! wow head staff please try to talk to them cuz it was just a down pour when Ahune was still at 70 level =/

Kommentar von XinR

Is anyone interested in running that quest? I have wanted a Kodo since I've first saw one and a NED on a Kodo just seems amusing.. Not many in my guild are interested in Brewfest or the Kodo, so reply here if you may wanting to run! I'll do it repeatedly if its that simple to get the guy without having to go thru whole instance

Kommentar von 234313

302k HP. 3 adds that start with him have 12800 HP, adds that spawn by drill have 10800. The elite adds have 37800 hp, the drops are the trinkets that cost 25 emblems of heroism (ilevel 200) in Dalaran.
Really easy though, can be done by a tank alone, since they hit like crap.

Quick update for 2009's Brewfest then!

Coren's perhaps not as strong as he once was, the first lasting much less time than before.

Coren: 302k health
Brewmaidens: 32k health
Minions: 10k health

If the tank grabs the various adds and holds the boss, he'll be burned down in under 30 seconds and the mobs still despawn.

Enjoy your new Emblem of Heroism copy trinkets! :)

I just did this boss he drops the badges trinkets but with level 80 stats a godsend when gearing up those alts you can easily save 80 badges if your class is a hybrid

Kommentar von 458801

Why would you WANT to solo him? You do that and you only get one chance at the mounts instead of five.

It also means that if it drops, you have to roll 5 ways instead of 1.

Kommentar von 138510

ridiculously easy fight... nice trinkets including at least one with +170 stamina.

If there is actually 2 stamina trinkets like there was last year then my tanking set is going to get a massive hp boost.

Kommentar von Paegan

Why would you WANT to solo him? You do that and you only get one chance at the mounts instead of five.

One chance that you dont have to roll against 4 other people for, so same odds in the end.

Kommentar von 304359

he does drop level 80 trinkets equivalent to emblem of heroism ones seems that some of them do not share a cooldown ie. the two tanking trinkets and I would assume the two AP trinkets like it stacks with banner of victory etc i do not know if this intended or will be hot fixed but its awesome for making an oh *!@# tank button ;P

I was having trouble finding the new 2009 trinkets and drops so I figured I'd post what I'd found so far. I'll try to add more as I can.

Bubbling Brightbrew Charm
Bitter Balebrew Charm
Coren's Chromium Coaster
Direbrew's Shanker 2.0

Mithril Pocketwatch

Kommentar von 301799

It's too bad you can only do the quest/summon him once a day. If Brewfest is two weeks long, then there are going to be a lot of people missing out on riding a ram. ;'(

Kommentar von TheRazielim

He's still relatively simple even at 80. If your DPS is strong enough and your tank tough enough to survive without heals, you can just zerg him. 3-manned it today while tanking, with 2 friends there just burning Coren down as fast as they could. It might only work for Human tanks though, since I could just Every Man for Himself out of being Barreled!, so my DPS didn't get swarmed by the adds and smooshed. Just keep rotating your tank CDs and if your DPS is strong enough, Coren will die before you do.

Kommentar von 459120

Soloed him just now, I'm lvl 80 prot paladin. Was pretty easy.

Kommentar von MilknessDalvengy

This guy is very easy; I'm an 80 Paladin tank with 545 def, 22.3k health, 33.5 avoidance, 10 block with 1075 blocking, and I didn't even come close to dying in my group. So you tanks that are worried about not being able to do it, don't worry, you will. Very simple fight and boss. People are posting strategy, but really, he dies too quickly for strategy to come into play.

Kommentar von Drenlox

hey coren, Instructor Razuvious called, he's sick of the neon blue look and wants his other pair of spaulders back

Kommentar von 130626

The trinkets that Coren drops do not seem to be disenchantable, and they have no vendor price. Therefore, those farming for the mounts will end up destroying a lot of these trinkets by the end of the event. Not a huge deal, but as an enchanter, I hate to see epics go to waste...

After that i switched my druid with my under geared 1500DPS ret pally and we had one unholy dk tank we downed him in 27 seconds lol. We only used minor cds such as wings ghoul gargoyle nothing we culdnt use more then once in all 8 fights we did (lots of alts lol) and trinkets

Kommentar von robog2

Confirmed.There is such a mace and it does drop only from Coren Direbrew.

Kommentar von 407672

2 -manned.
80 Dk blood and 80 priest disc.
were not really that great geared.
took a couple trys.
It's pretty easy up until the end and the adds start coming out like crazy .
Dps seems to be the main thing in this fight.
getting him down as quick as possible.
My tanking set is pretty much vendor stuff and reg toc.
3 manning this is Aloot easier then 2 manning, with the extra Dps .
my tanking dps and the healers couple dps throw outs werent cutting it , made the fight too long and it started to get anoying.
The longer your fighting the more adds start to pop.

** Once you've wiped the person who started it cannot start it again.
Don't forget ^^ so you only have 2 attempts per day :(
we got it our second attempt.

oh yeah, for anyone 2 manning this, Try wearing your PVP trinket for dispelling when the lady throws the bucket on your head, because when she does all the adds switch to the other person (healer) and will down them quick. and i was wearing a couple dps pieces and in my dps spec the whole fight (35k around there with priest stam buff ) . to up my Dps , the adds aren't hard to keep aggro on.

Kommentar von taurehe

A note to all balance druids out there:

If you are fighting Coren, don't use starfall. Because it can aggro all the yellow level 50 people outside Coren's room. They arent hard to handle but your group might get very annoyed at you and it will scare the crap out of you. Lol
I learned this the hard way :P

Kommentar von 142629

Just a bit of side information.

You can get the Coren "summon" every day but, he will only drop "Direbrew's Dire Brew" that gets you 40 Brewfest tokens once per character (per year). So don't think of the Coren as an easy way to farm tokens.

Kommentar von 280535

Just had him drop both the Shanker and the Tankard on the same kill.

Kommentar von 243213

Coren was VERY generous today.

He dropped Swift Brewfest Ram, then Great Brewfest Kodo, then Tankard O' Terror...

And I won all three of them!

I thought my party mates were going to kill me :D

Anyone know if his loot table is going to be updated to current gear levels?

Kommentar von bkevol

in brewfest 2008 and 2009, the trinkets always were identical to ones you could buy with lvl70 badges and lvl 80 emblems. last year you got the ilvl 200 trinkets from him.

would it be safe to say that the brewfest trinkets in 2010 will be identical to the current ilvl 245 trinkets we can buy with emblems of triumph? im really wondering how much +stam those trinkets will give=)) +250 stam perhaps?

as for the dagger. not sure.. last year it was ilvl 200, this year im guessing 232

for the tankard of terror, anyone expect that to return?... maybe ilvl 264 BOE? hmm

guess in 10 days ill find out... yay

Kommentar von 611483

For 2010 :
You can find him using The Dungeon finder Tool
Coren Direbrew hp is 302k and he will use in his encounter "Direbrew's disarm" which is an Aoe Disarm move he drops 1 Trinket every time u kill him ,1 quest item (only once) , 2 emblem of frost daily and 1 bag daily this bag can contain different thing till now it drooped for me emblem of frost x2 and in this bag u may get your Kodo Mount

Kommentar von Ovahealz

Fail, he doesn't drop the mount anymore, you only get 1 shot at it every day after you kill it, from there on, you get 2 free frosties so you can get your gear faster, pro.

Kommentar von PonyHawk

Because of the new LFG system it is easier to get to and from Direbrew. If you're 80 just click on LFG then select the Direbrew event then when he's defeated you get a 'keg'. In it you have the chace for the mounts. One keg per day.

Kommentar von Aivoruoska

Both mounts are still available and drop from bag. You can even get both mounts at the same time, as i just moments ago witnessed.

Kommentar von badboye0

due to the addition of the dungeon finder, you can now queue up for Coren Direbrew and it will take you straight to him.

Kommentar von SvampBob

At lvl 70 i cant se the Boss in there :/
Bug or`?

This may be a very stupid question, but i'm gonna ask anyway. :P

I just got my Swift Brewfest Ram and I'm wondering, will it dissapear as soon as Brewfest is over or is it permanent? Thanks in advance. :)

Kommentar von 664366

indeed mount can only be looted from the keg, which drops once a day per character (first encounter)

Kommentar von dtrmp4

They might've raised his drop rates for the bag this year?

Either that or I just got really lucky, got the Ram, remote, and BoE offhand my first try

Kommentar von ZambieHunter

I was wondering if they raised the chance on the mounts as well. I did it on my shammy and got the kodo, logged off and did it on my warrior right after and got the kodo again. Maybe I was also just very lucky.

Kommentar von 664471

So there's no way to get this under level 75? My alt has everything except this kill.

Kommentar von Heeris

Watch out with doing this on your alts..
Did it on my 5 level 80s today and then went to VoA to join a 10-man PuG with my Druid.

The runs took around 8mins in total, but apparantly (not sure if this is a bug) i got the "You have entered too many instances recently" message. So it seems that this, 5 instances an hour, is account based. Had to wait another 52mins to enter VoA, even tho i only finished 1 instance on that toon.

Kommentar von mking52

Has anyone else noticed that while they are fighting him that he changes levels. Yesterday he went from being a level 77 elite to a level 76 elite, while i was on my Lock. Then when i qued on my Druid he was a 79 elite.

Kommentar von tobiashunter

Hey all, just so you know you can actually do the event at ANY LEVEL THAT CAN GET INTO BRD.

My guild just tested this. Here's how:

1) get 5 guildmates together. (Or PUG from the same server, so you can invite back, if you wanna spam it for each persons lower lvl alt)
2) Dungeon Q for Coren
3) The person who wants their lower lvl alt to get the event AND THE KEG SHAPED CHEST logs off and has their alt invited.
4) Kill Coren

Yes, I have a lvl 60 that now has 2 frost emblems (don't believe me look up Graeosh on Argent Dawn, you will see he has the achievement Emblematic and Dungeon and Raid Emblems, as well as Direbrewfest)

http://www.wowarmory.com/character-sheet.xml?r=Argent+Dawn&cn=Graeosh

Edit: Added armory link so you can click and see he just earned the achieves.
Edit again: Checking with Blizz to see if this is intended or a glitch (maybe it's a glitch they won't fix?)

Kommentar von Orranis

Under level 80 but don't want to wait a year for your Violet Proto-Drake?

Never fear, Orranis is here! Well, you probably should be afraid, but I'll still help you out.

Here is the fail-proof method for getting your alts a Coren Direbrew kill.

First of all, you must get at least two eighties, a healer and a tank, and preferably a DPS as well.

The second step can be done one of two ways. One, you can have a lock in your group, which will make things simpler. Two, you must have at least one part member with a remote to create a rendezvous point with the lower level party members. As most lower levels I've run so far have been DK alts, we would simply all Death Gate to Acherus, but any location that all levels can get to works.

The third step is to remove all members of the party being ran from the group. Then you must find 'filler' 80's to join the group, as many as needed to completely fill the party, and que up with them. The party member with the remote must be at the starting point before you are put in que. Note: Coren Direbrew will not spawn if you do not que for him.

The fourth step is of course, to enter the instance when the que pops instantly. As soon as everyone has entered the instance, the filler 80's will leave the group. Do not look for more party members. Invite the lower levels you are running into the party.

The fifth step is to have the party member with the remote teleport out of the dungeon, where the two lower level's will be waiting. He will then drop remote, preferably in a place where it shall provide comic relief (I.E. Dropping a mole machine on a floating rock in Outland and somehow ending up in Blackrock Depths), and the lower levels and the 80 shall use it to teleport in.

The Sixth step is to kill Coren Direbrew.

?

Profit.

It's a lot less complicated then it appears. I have so far ran five guildy's with this method (three runs), and not once found it faulty.

Kommentar von Thirsom

Just in case somebody has stumbled across the Dungeon Finder for the 2011 Brewfest encounter on some test realm or by some similar way already: I'd really love to know the necessary item level required to queue for the Coren Direbrew encounter this year, so I can gear up if my chars aren't up to it yet... tyvm in advance...

Kommentar von Luvaria

Will it actually let you fight him without using the dungeon finder for it? IIRC there was a level requirement to get into the dungeon finder for Ahune (83 or 84, I can't remember) which leads me to think it would be the same for this guy.

Kommentar von Weasei

Seems that the usual set of trinkets and weapons are going to be up this year! Assuming it's still possible to farm this a lot less people will be bothering with the TB dailies.

Will be interesting to see whether or not Hervorragender Horrorhumpen and Düsterbräus noch blutbeflecktere Pulle will be valid transmogrification targets come 4.3.

Kommentar von Nerraw

This will definitely be worth doing this year if you're looking to gear up alts. Plus the updated Tankard might fetch a decent price at the auction house.

Kommentar von Zigrifid

Ok updates : he now has 1.9 m hp , he is very easy ,just ignore adds and dps him down avoid the ground drills (not that they are lethal it just knockbacks you nothing more ), just kill him and GL with the mounts and gear drops .

Kommentar von Thrallscream

Just a heads up for anyone wanting to find this guy. YOU HAVE TO USE DUNGEON FINDER. His name will be there. Q it up with some guildies, buddies, or random people. You can Q as many times as you want to get the trinket you're after so don't worry if you don't get it. Eventually you will. Just ran 3 of my 85's through DF and got each trinket, for each of them, in under an hour. Everyone has been pretty chill and no pressure during the rolls. I just need what I want and so does everyone else.

The rest is just brewfest fun. Enjoy the event! Good luck. Don't forget to pick up your Brew of the Month Club Membership!

Kommentar von 558448

To queue for this boss, you must be at least lvl 84! There isn't any ilvl requirement.

Wowhead is currently wrong on the question of "can you disenchant the Direbrew trinkets (at 475 Enchanting)?".

I have tried disenchanting all the trinkets with my skill level 525 Enchanting toon and at least at the moment, runs for Maelstrom Crystals are not feasible.

Coren Direbrew one stop information comment time!
Brewfest 2011, Patch 4.2.2

Coren Direbrew is the level 85 World Event boss for Brewfest. He has 1859k (1.9 million) hp. The only way to kill this boss is to cue for him in the Random Dungeon Finder, which requires level 84. The first kill each day will give you a Fassförmige Schatzkiste, drops from this chest and the boss are listed below. Once a year, each player may pick up a Düsterbräus Düsterbräu (A/H) which they may turn in for 40 Brewfest Tokens.

The boss takes only a minute or so to kill with a good group. To start him, just talk to, insult, and fight him. During the fight he spawns several weak adds, including two Brewmaidens. When he casts Düsterbräus Entwaffnen, get the melee and tanks to back up 10-15 yards or so from him or he'll disarm them for a few seconds.

While the treasure chest can only be obtained once per day, the boss himself can be run endlessly through the dungeon finder: the night it came out we ran it 30-40 times in the first hour before we got bored and quit. The server which runs the boss actually began to lag and we got a few 1-2 minute loading screens into the dungeon =).

Coren Direbrew Drops:

Approximately ~~20 Gold!~~ 1-2 Gold per person.
Noch bitterer Plörrbräuglücksbringer - "Vanity" trinket, summons a dwarf that gives you beer and does damage.
Noch perlenderer Hellbräuglücksbringer - "Vanity" trinket, summons a dwarf that gives you beer and heals 139 damage per 2 seconds.
Muskelprotztrophäe - Tanking trinket, use is Trunkenes Ausweichen. 20 second duration, 2 minute cooldown.
Corens gekühlter Chromuntersetzer - DPS AP trinket, use is Quälende Erinnerungen. 10 second duration, 50 second internal cooldown (after effect ends).
Mithrilstoppuhr - DPS SP trinket, use is Jetzt oder nie!. 10 second duration, 50 second internal cooldown (after effect ends).
Versteinertes Solei - Healing trinket, use is Essenz des Lebens. 10 second duration, 50 second internal cooldown (after effect ends).

Fassförmige Schatzkiste Drops 25 Justice Points, 10-15 Braufestmarke and one or more of the following:

I ran this in a chain with a guild group for the first hour it came out. We got probably 30-40 kills or so and made around 700 gold. Our retadin got the Direbrew's Bloody Shanker from the daily treasure chest, and our boomkin got the Direbrew's Remote. We saw each of the trinkets drop twice off the boss, but nothing else. Unless we got really unlucky, only trinkets drop off him. None of the trinkets that drop are disenchantable.

Edits: Gold drops fixed =(. Added more info to the Brewmaiden trinkets.
It is possible for more than one item to drop from the chest at once, I had both the Ram and the Tankard drop at once.
Brewfest tokens are now dropping daily from the keg.

Kommentar von 815411

Just so you know, you can also get "There is no loot" when you open your keg... :(

Kommentar von angelkisses02

Just as a side note, Blizzard fixed the average of 20 gold drop per person. It is now the standard 1g and some change

Kommentar von 861342

Looks like they stealth nerf'd the amount of gold you get for completing this fight.

It was around 100g total (20g per player) when Brewfest started this year (2011) and evidently they changed it sometime in the past 24 hours to around 7.5g (1.5g per player).

Can't say I didn't see this coming as you could chain-run this as a tank and make around 1.5k gold per hour.

Kommentar von wintermadness1

Incredibly easy fight @85...most groups I've had waste no time. I barely set focus and the tank engages him; it's an easy burn fight, only interrupted by some knockbacks, a few adds that can be ignored, and a 4 second disarm (which seems to miss some of the time). My current record kill is 22 seconds, and will probably be lower by the time the holiday is over...most groups chain queue over and over for money or until everyone gets all the trinkets they want.

Kommentar von 712852

the 84 min lvl to Queue is rather BS since he is a very easy fight... lvl 80 would be able to do this

Edit: I mean a group of 80s

Kommentar von 882838

Just to say, i got both the dagger and the tankard from the SAME daily keg, so it might be possible to get more than 2 items from your first daily run's chest.

My 2 cents :)

Kommentar von 882560

Gold drops from Coren have been silently nerfed.

Only getting 1g instead of 16g-26g.

Figures. Blizzard always nerfs a good thing.

Direbrew's Dire Brew (H / A) only drops only once per Event/Year
But it seems like the quests have been resetted during the last maintenance, at least I was able to redo the quests - at least on EU Realms.

So if you have looted and finished the quest after the maintenance (Wed, 21 Sep) you can't loot it again.

Kommentar von Aiue

Shortly after Love is in the Air 2010, Blizzard remade event bosses so that you wouldn't summon them with a daily quest. Instead you could now sign for them via special NPCs or the Dungeon Finder. Doing so would once a day reward you with a container having a chance of dropping the special loot.

As they did so, they removed any of said special loot from the loot tables of the bosses in question, so the answer to your question is no, he does not drop mounts these days.

From the 3.3.3 patch notes:

World Event Bosses

Holiday bosses (such as Ahune for the Fire Festival) will now be accessible through the Dungeon Finder.
Players must use the Dungeon Finder or speak to special holiday NPCs in the world to queue up and access these bosses.
Upon accepting a queue for any holiday boss, the party will be ported directly to the necessary area for confronting that boss.
The previous summoning criteria for these bosses have been removed. Players can queue up for and fight each World Event boss as many times as they want for any standard loot that they may drop.
All rare holiday items (such as The Horseman’s Reins) will have a chance of being found in holiday-themed loot troves which will drop once for each player in the party no more than once per day, in the same manner that doing the Random Dungeon daily quest will provide a specific reward the first time it is completed in a day.

For those having trouble with this guy, Me and my guild made a nice 4 min boss kill video showing step by step how to kill him.

(had to put a space between youtube. and com)

Kommentar von Neutralis

I don't know how much I need to express this but the tank MUST hold aggro on Coren the whole time. He should not be able to run around attacking everyone like the last group I had. Being a hunter I was able to keep him away from me but it was a pain.

Kommentar von deathtyriel

Does anyone know what gear he got on? i know the weapons ofc Tankard O'Terror but what about rest?

Kommentar von gajackson

hey - please feel free to try this, and + the post rating, or cross-post in other Coren threads:

Like last year, you do *NOT* have to be 84/85 to fight Coren. Anyone who could normally queue for BRD is capable, although I mean to post this to help those 78+ who would like to have the trinkets (forget the remote, mounts or weapons - this won't work for that - you can't get the Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest) waiting in the bank when they hit 85, like my rogue and pally.

the details are here - please give credit to OAK where it is due:

http://www.orcisharmyknife.com/2011/09/killing-coren-direbrew-at-low-levels.html

Obviously, this is best for guildies or groups of friends. And you can run it as many times as you can stomach in one go, to get the exact trinkets you want. Just a few days left, so get on it!

Cheers from Cenarion Circle!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Addendum, due to Sham's post below. I had one poor word choice (edited in bold above) and 1 actual mistake (also edited/adjusted in bold):

I changed 'queue' for fight, because you are correct - under-84 can't 'queue' for the boss fight. 84s &/or 85s do the actual queuing, and then 1 drops party (I would HOPE not the tank or healer!), and the under-84 is added to party & teleports in. This is the same workaround that worked for Ahune and HH, as well. Blizz may fix that - possibly as soon as Hallow's End this month (although I hope not!)

This workaround can only be used for someone who could normally enter BRD - I think the minimum is 42? 46?; if you try under that level, you will get the 'you are too low a level . . . ' - type message..

And so yes - it is only good for the trinkets - the 2 weapons, like the remote & mounts, were part of the Keg-Shaped Treasure Chest, which an under-level character can't get. That WAS my error, and thanks. But it was still a bunch of good trinket grabs for those who could get them, and I hope someone benefited.

If my post isn't clear, please follow the link - it is all laid out pretty well there.

Kommentar von 957270

He is now lvl 90 for the 2012 brewfest.

Kommentar von Gulanga

This year he's is actually challenging but the rewards are enormous.
The trinkets are now ilvl 470.

Dps example - Corens kalter Chromuntersetzer

Btw the way to get to him is to take a right when you port in and use the small consoles set up there.

Kommentar von Necromorta

His level was increased to 90, since he appears with the the release of Mists of Pandaria.

Actual Blizzard quote:

Crithto said:

Word is, Coren Direbrew has been working out with bigger kegs and he will indeed be a level 90 dungeon boss and his loot has been adjusted accordingly. Pace was something we considered, so we pushed the actual event by just over a week from when it normally happens (which you should be able to see on your in-game calendars now) to give players a bit more time to reach level 89, the minimum level required to queue for the encounter. Oh, we also added a couple more surprises but you’ll have to wait and see. ;)

Kommentar von Thrallscream

Is he strictly for level 90 this year? Or will he pop up in the Dungeon Finder at a specific level? I just hit 86, I'm assuming I won't be able to see it till 88ish?

Looking to get my hand on some sweet purple items candy!

Kommentar von lightclaw

The boss offers updated, ilvl 470 versions of the trinkets this year and you can queue at level 89. He is actually substantially harder than most heroic bosses are.

His most dangerous ability is throwing barrels onto the tank's head, then running amok through the party. The best strategy I've found to avoid this is to have ranged stay at the far end of the room and kite the boss around if needed. Perhaps the ability could be avoided by killing one of the helpers in the fight, but I have yet to find a pug that will try killing them to find out.

Update: Ursula Direbrew is throwing barrels at the person who is tanking her. She spawns when Coren is down to about 5M health, probably 30%. There is a short grace period before she begins throwing barrels, about 10-15 seconds. During this time either a pet or a dps should pick her up and begin tanking her. They will be barreled, but the fight goes much more smoothly as a result. Tanks, when Ursula comes up, move Coren and the adds away from Ursula so that the dps who is tanking her can keep aggro. Killing Ursula is not worthwhile because she immediately respawns and starts throwing barrels again after 10-15 seconds. The barrels are not otherwise avoidable.

Even more updated: When I dps this, I've started telling the tank that I'll tank Ursula so that I get barreled and asking him or her to move the boss after that starts happening.

When I tank it, I've been asking the DPS to hit her a couple of times so that neither I nor the healer gets barreled. That doesn't happen very often, unfortunately. I have been turning nameplates on so that I can see her as soon as she spawns and switching to single target aggro at about 5.5M health. As soon as she's up, I make tracks for the other end of the room and hope that one of the dps has threat on her via AoE. If the healer starts getting barreled I usually taunt back, as the Barreled tank mayhem usually goes better than no heals.

Kommentar von Chew

From the P.o.V. of a tank:
Unlike the years before, with our current gear we are not able to "zerg" him as we used to be, so maybe this "bug ?" has been there already for longer.

The Maiden are throwing Bier der dunklen Schankmaid onto players, yet in old times you only got a keg stuck on your head - and therefore disoriented - when you didnt get rid of that brew in your inventory in time (destroy or drink it).
To kill the 2 Maiden is actually not really an option, as just new ones will popup.

The bug now is, that the tank will get a keg on his/her head regardless if there is a Bier der dunklen Schankmaid in the inventory or not, which is pretty deadly for most DPS-classes.

Kommentar von hks2012

Level to queue for him changed to 89 after the expansion came out.

Kommentar von Rohendar

Ursula is the one that does the barreled. She seems to do it on the highest aggro target first, thus continously barrelling the tank. An easy way to get around this as a tank:

As soon as she spawns, run the other side of the room. She actually doesn't move as long as she can barrel. But you'll be out of range. She'll start barrelling the ranged dps. As long as your healer is not stupid enough to stand on top of her, you are now free and clear to keep Coren on you and finish the fight.

This was a lot easier for me than trying to convince the feral druid or hunter to offtank Ursula.

Kommentar von 998027

After patch 5.x, you now have to be at least lv 89 to queue for Direbrew, so if you don't have MoP or Brewmaster yet you can't get it.

He also drops ilv 475 trinks now.

Kommentar von Blittzer

In 2018, For patch 8.0.1, if your level 120 he drops item level 335 Trinkets. You can queue for this as low as level 23 but will get lower item level gear.

To get to him, DON'T use the big Mole Machine at the entrance. There are 5 small clickable boxes next to the goblin vendor standing on the crate with 3 aggressive dwarf enemies next to it. Kill the dwarves, everyone click a box and you get teleported to the Grim Guzzler next to Coren!

*If you join with the queue, it will take you directly outside Coren's location now.

Brawler's Statue - Versatility
Mithril Wristwatch - Critical Strike (Casters)
Thousand-Year Pickled Egg - Intellect (Healers)
Coren's Cold Chromium Coaster - Critical Strike (Melee/Ranged)
Bitterest Balebrew Charm - Stamina
Bubbliest Brightbrew Charm - Stamina

First time you kill him each day, you get Fassförmige Schatzkiste which could contain:

Kommentar von Taraezor

Usually these kinds of posts get down voted, but I'm going to be brave:

On entering the instance, we are placed at the very start of the Blackrock Depths instance. Just like a regular BD run, we had the usual crew of NPCs as well as the usual mole machine. Specially for Coren there is a second mole machine. Clicking on that will take you to the lower side room of the Grim Guzzler, which is where all the action with Coren will take place.

However, twice tonight we had impatient players. As soon as they get into the room they initiate the scripted "pre-fight" sequence. No problem except that if all the players have not already entered the Grim Guzzler then they will be locked out of the room. Stuck at the entrance to the Blackrock Depths.

At this stage, most of us have questing greens. We really need a full party, especially a healer. The first time around a few of us rage quitted and took the 30 minutes dungeon deserter penalty.

The second time I had the presence of mind to use my Düsterbräus Fernbedienung. Luckily it took me to Coren's room and in the same instance as the others. For those of you also "locked out", this hopefully is of help.

Edit: Latest patch does put the party inside the Grim Guzzler. But the Düsterbräus Fernbedienung is still able to function as above.

Kommentar von 514482

As a warrior tank, you can drop your Mocking Banner a few seconds after Ursula spawns, and direbrew should stick on you for at least 2 barrels. Generally enough time for pug dps to nearly finish him off.

Kommentar von 1059726

Just did him again, in the new brew fest event in 5.4 it seems to has the same health pool, damage, abilities and will drop the same 470 trinkets as last years version.

Kommentar von geermystical

i can't find him anywhere and i am at the place where it shows him at but he is not there. i don't know where he is. I need help trying to find him. Please.

Kommentar von eel2186

Yet another year of brewfest and nothing has changed execpt for blizzard adding two new items which are completely useless for the most part they should have at least upgraded the trinkets instead of leaving them the same as they were in 2012...

Kommentar von Jethedo

He drops ilevel 670 trinkets as of 6.2.2.

Kommentar von Steiner14512

In 2015, he drops
Muskelprotzstatue
Mithrilarmbanduhr
Tausend Jahre altes Solei
Corens kalter Chromuntersetzer
Bitterster Plörrbräuglücksbringer
Tooltips still say Item Level 600, but if you click on the link it gives you the 670 version

Kommentar von Pizzapotamus

Has anyone else had a problem repeat-a-farming the trinkets for alts this year? I know in years past, I grouped with many other players through the random queue who would queue up again and again until each of us won the trinket we were after.

This year, however, I was tanking for a few friends and after a bit I got dropped mid-transfer and noticed the message "you have entered too many instances...". The strange thing is that I had not entered any instances manually - only via the finder. Working as intended?

UPDATE: After waiting out the instance limiter and trying again, someone else in the group got it too. =\

Kommentar von LordKappa

He drops 810 trinkets as of 7.0.3.

Kommentar von Graknak

Could've sworn this used to teleport you straight to the Grim Guzzler in previous years, but so far my groups are getting ported to the entrance of the dungeon. Seems there is a console next to the Mole Machine to get to the correct place but our group disbanded before we found out.

Kommentar von drewbster

There are some low level Direbrew NPCs by the vendors at the entrance, kill them and the new mole machine directly into the Grim Guzzler will appear.

No need to run the instance itself.

Seems it was changed after only a few days, and we now appear inside the Grim Guzzler again.

Kommentar von Enathrae

Anyone here got a warforged trinket by any chance?

Kommentar von Waseyo

I know in the past you used to be able to farm holiday bosses for the loot (in Coren's case the trinkets), but could only get the daily holiday prize once per day. Anyone notice that it is only letting you loot the first kill and unable to get the trinkets on kills after that? Is this just poor luck on the personal loot, or is this how the holiday bosses are now?

Kommentar von rajin

As of 2016 much has changed:

You must be level 109 to queue into this specific Brewfest dungeon. Took me an hour to find this info. More info on this year's brewfest can be found here: http://www.wowhead.com/guides/world-events/holidays/brewfest#coren-direbrew-the-grim-guzzler-and-the-dark-iron-dwarves

Kommentar von EmCee88

Posting because a lot of groups this year seem to be getting really lost in the mountain.

To get to him, turn right past the mole machine and the NPCs. You will see a box on the floor labelled "mole machine console". Click it, hit "pull lever" and you are ported directly to his room.

Kommentar von hovardbehunt

As of 2016-09-30, loot order doesn't matter, and he does drop occasionally (1 in 8?), and then it's not spec specific (i.e., hunter got mithril watch). Items are level 810, and *not* disenchantable *or* vendorable (I'm not sure if they can be traded). Overall probably not worth farming.

Kommentar von SoloEverything

How to fight Coren in my experience in 2016: 1.Burst spam til you get stunned. If your lucky this may take more than 5-10 seconds. 2. If you hit the top spot for dps, your done. Because you'll just get spam stunned for the remainder of the fight. (With lil nuggets of freedom here n there). This happened to me every day since Brewfest started.

Kommentar von albinoette

From the updated 2017 Brewfest Guide:

...you do not need to be max level to queue up, ~~you can start queueing up at 46~~.

~~Confirmed a level 46 can queue on first day of 2017 Brewfest.~~
2018: Scaling! Was able to queue and get loot on characters in their 20's and upward.

Once per season (per character):

Düsterbräus Düsterbräu will drop, offering you a quest (A / H) that will take you to your faction's Brewfest grounds for turn-in and rewards 40x Braufestmarke.

Once per day (per character):

Individual loot: Fassförmige Schatzkiste. Will always contain some Braufestmarke. Can contain additional items (rare), including: either mount* (ram or kodo), the Düsterbräus Fernbedienung, BoE mace, or BoP dagger.
Have seen Hervorragender Horrorhumpen usable by as low as level 80 on the AH.

* Note on Mounts: Only characters level 98+ were eligible to get the Herzbrecher X-45 in Legion/Feb2018. I would not be surprised if there is a similar high-level requirement for the mounts from Brewfest.

Any time you queue (per character):

There is a chance for Coren to drop trinkets. These scale their level/ilvl to correspond to the character's level.
- For example, on a level 46 paladin, I was able to loot this at ilvl 51.
I was able to loot 2 trinkets on the same character on the same day (day 1).
Full list of trinkets can be found here.

Kommentar von Lavindathar

Can anyone confirm in 2018 whether he can drop epic trinkets if you aren't level 120?

Ran him 5 times and not got anything of note on a level 90 character.

Kommentar von magpulsexp2

Drops 335 ilevel items at max player level 120

Kommentar von sorcerer25

update BFA ... items are now ilvl 335, but also still random drop, ignoring specc class, etc. I just got 2 obviously tanking trinkets on my hunter ... good for fun and ilvl but not useful :(

anyway, any class/specc will get an item, sooner or latter, be cuz, unlinke some previous expansions I remember (when reward was ONLY daily)

NOW, one can farm this boss untill gets everything on every specc ... and finding pug groups is fast (1-2mins on a dps only)

also you may want to add ... it is no longer in that daily reward chest, it is dropping directly at boss

so, gl and happy farming ;)

Kommentar von sinestra139

Wristwatch and Coaster seem to be really low drop rate compared with the Statue and Brawlers trinkets. Or maybe I'm just being really unlucky on the RNG.

Kommentar von itsnotemy

In case people came here wondering, these can NOT Warforge or Titanforge.

Kommentar von Darthvixen

seem like this year he does his CC schtick in overdrive: my melee alts seem to always be disarmed, and probably owing to window licker group mates, i've been stunned for seven seconds three times back to back

Kommentar von KhazRyuu

We all know Coren doesn't attend Brewfest, since he's busy filming his hit T.V. show called "Coren in the House"

Kommentar von SilverDragon234

The main antagonist of the Brewfest event.

Kommentar von Broomband

Trinkets at max level currently drop at ilvl 425.

Kommentar von NoobTank

My 102 DH just got Fassförmige Schatzkiste (which does not contain the mounts) instead of Fassförmige Schatzkiste (which does). Not sure what the minimum level for the mount is, but I would guess at least 110.

(Fassförmige Schatzkiste no longer drops, according to comments on that page.)

2021, patch 9.1: trinket drops are iLvl 184

Trinkets now drop at item level 184 for level 60 characters.

Kommentar von Lunarpaw

In 10.1.7, the trinkets start at 389 and are upgradable to 411 with Flightstones.

Kommentar von Ramblast

Just killed Coren Düsterbräu with my Shaman and got Geschwärzte Grubenbeinkleider and also Feines Langschwert. No idea if it's a bug (so correct me if I am wrong), but it's the first time that drops pieces of gear besides the typical beverages and sausages.
