out of curiosity is the kil 200 scarlet soldiers a set amount or is it like 1 of the mobs that die in 3 hits?

Kommentar von 66445

it will be one of the new type of destroy everything quests, i cant remember what its called right now but blizzard has a name for it. look at the description:

"Use this horn to call forth one of my wyrms. Climb upon its back and command it into battle. With it you will end the Scarlet Crusade"

showing that you'll be using something other than your self
TBCversion is kinda like the HFP bombings or IQD bombings.

Kommentar von Mumpley

Wowwiki has got a great description on this quest:

Use the to call down a Frostbrood Vanquisher, a frost wyrm that functions as a flying mount while in and around Havenshire and New Avalon.

Your targets are Hearthglen Crusaders, Tirisfal Crusaders and Scarlet Ballista. Friendly units in the field of Havenshire are Volatile Ghouls and Rampaging Abominations.

Fire the wyrm's long-range deathbolts by hitting 1. Treat the wyrm as a fighter plane with fixed guns pointing ahead. The bolts are ballistic and will respect the angle the wyrm is at when casting and gravity after a while. Long range shots fired into the air will hit the ground a few hundred yards down range. An indication (in the form of a Hunter's Mark) will show up when the wrym fires a shot to see where the bolt will hit.

While in the air above New Avalon, always keep moving as there are plenty of ballistae ready to knock unwary wyrms and their riders out of the sky.

If the wyrm finds itself low on health and/or mana, target a random crusader, swoop out of the sky and close to within 15 yards, hit 3 to eat it, and get back into the air while not stopping to limit the damage taken from other nearby mobs.

Kommentar von 178200

omg this is gonna b so hard to do at first with EVERY one killing them.

Kommentar von 22765

How do you control the wyrm? If I treat it like a flying mount, I cannot change my altitude. What buttons do you need to press to change altitude?

Kommentar von 169548

its not rly hard your on a frostwyrm and you use spells that kill alot of mobs with it you just got 2 dodge theyr arrows

Kommentar von Battleguard

Note: if you don't get a new action bar (like me when I first used the item), right click your portrait, select "leave", and use the item again.

Kommentar von 78426

I found the quest to be very trivial if you hold down on the right mouse button. That causes the projectile targeting system to come up (you will see the path and the point of impact). Leaving this up, adjusting the point of impact if necessary and moving using your preferred keyboard movement keys will allow you to easily spin in circles around a cluster of scarlets while you rain down icy doom.

Another tip is to avoid fighting ballistae by themselves. There are quite a few groups where there will be maybe 15 scarlet knights and 1 ballista... focus on those groups. The first time I did this quest, I ran out of mana, because I chose to fight the ballistae that were on the top of the towers. The second time, I only fought groups and I did not run out of mana at all.

Also, you will probably reach the 10 ballistae count before you kill 150 soldiers. To combat this, you can simply not kill the ballista and wait for soldiers to respawn (waste some time by going to a nearby group). The soldiers around the damaged ballista will respawn allowing you to kill twice as many soldiers per ballista as normal. Also, if someone else happens to kill the newly spawned soldiers, you will still get the kill for the ballista.

Overall, the quest is pretty easy and you get a nifty looking helm as a reward.

Kommentar von ordos

Do not leave the 'vihicle' while you're still flying above the village. I assumed I would be teleported where I summoned the dragon but instead fell out of the sky and died. When I received my free revive I got killed again by the balista's.

Kommentar von Mortenz

Boring to slay hundreds of humans using one of the most epic dragons in the game as a killer machine?

What game are you playing?

Kommentar von 245421

If you die during this one you will probably want to rez at the gy. If you're in the middle by one of the balistas you'll have a hard time getting out.

Kommentar von 205110

If your mount is about to die fly away and low, if it dies in the air you will fall to your death... After a few falls your resurrection time will be a pain.

Kommentar von 245878

Although it is possible, don't fly up to the Ebon Hold while on this quest. You will be unable to get back down. The griffons up there don't work, you can't jump off the balcony and you can't get back on the mount.

Kommentar von Liri

I had to relog to remove my bar mod and it desummoned my dragon. A quick horn blow and I was riding again on a fresh hew worm with my previous kills still counting. I tried it once again and it seems to work fins. So just fly back to the lich king and resummon to refresh. Oh and remember your mount is more accurate while hovering.

Kommentar von Gonkers

This is the most retarded quest ever! I can't kill any Ballistas, I bomb them and bomb them, they explode, but I don't get credit for it. I have since died, but if rez, I instantly die from 50 Crusaders and 3 ballistas destroying me.

--------------------

I figured it out, you have to be within like 20 or 30 yards of the ballista to get credit. If your vehicle (dragon) runs out of mana, fly to the ground, exit, and re summon. It's safer and faster than "Devour Humanoid"

Kommentar von 202769

Most fun quest in the game.

Kommentar von 80493

I have to r/click my portrait and select dismiss to end this quest. r/clicking off the buff does not seem to work.

Kommentar von 147875

This game is the perfect combination of great fun and creativity + incredible frustration.

Kommentar von 246875

I have been killing the soliders in one hour now. Where can i find the Ballistas or it's just an bug that i killing in 1 hour? please answer

Kommentar von 99616

If you are anything like me, sometimes you will start a quest about 10 minutes before you have to get ready for work with the intent of finishing the quest when you get home from work. You CANNOT do that with this quest. I was not allowed to fly to Ebon Hold, or to log out of the game until I completed the quest. Not sure if this is a bug or if it always happens, but it happened to me.

I found out that being late due to playing a video game is not a good thing so far as my boss is concerned.

Kommentar von 150068

Found this very difficult because I was unable to see and target mobs from the air. Died twice but with the advice of a friend found a way to get through:

- Fly your mount to the gates of New Avalon. Take it down to ground level and fire the Icy Deathbolts repeatedly as you move forward through the gates and into the town. You will take out dozens of soldiers and probably a few Ballistas (cannons). Your mount will take damage, but slowly.

- Continue moving at ground level through the town until your mount's health is at about 25%. Go back out the gates and out of range of the New Avalon ballistas and soldiers, into the fields of Havenshire. Try to find a clear spot without an elite crusader around.

- Dismount. Summon a new mount, which will appear with full health. Mount and return to New Avalon. Rinse, repeat as needed until you get your 150 soldiers and 10 ballistas.

Kommentar von 146540

The above post is absolutely right. This is the easiest way to complete this quest without having to riding high in the sky and figure out the trajectories. Just skim on the ground and mow down everything in your way while blasting the ballistas at point blank range. It takes 3-4 shots to take down a ballista. Just watch your health!

Kommentar von Tanae

And remember that most of the time it will put you in combat mode and you cannot summon a new mount and you will have to go kill yourself to get out of the combat. Highly annoying.

Kommentar von 130755

i considered this a chance to get to see eastern plaguelands from a flying mount perspective. i just flew out as far as i could in any direction until it dismounted me. i spirit rezzed each time. it was easier to pay a 7g repair bill for completely red gear, than to run back.

Kommentar von Gnostik

Note that the #3 ability restores both health and mana, not just mana as the tooltip says.

Kommentar von Karoxen

This quest is also an excellent time to hand in any crusader skulls you might have left as when you complete the chain you lose access to doing so

Kommentar von roguexx

Lol so funny quest xP

Kommentar von RedwoodElf

I found this to be quite easy. The trick is to circle the balistas by strafing, so their bolts miss you, while keeping your ice breath targetted on them. The ice breath target actually targets on where it is about 2 seconds AFTER you activate the attack...so try to keep your targetting indicator steady for that time.

(Note: this is much easier for those who use the mouse to control their characters' facing. I am almost ALWAYS holding down the right mouse button when moving around, particularly in the air, so I always had the targetting helper up. So I just had "auto forward" to keep moving, and strafed to the left or right to circle my target.)

Kommentar von 133783

A few things to note:

1. For some reason you don't always get credit for destroying the balistas so be patient. It's about 50-60% success. Just make sure you have them targeted.

2. I kept flying between the two gates to the town where the soliders would come together rather than try to take them out individually. You could kill 10-20 this way.

3. It's quicker just to land and call the bird again rather than mess around with eating the dead. New bird = full energy and mana.

Kommentar von 290721

The title of this quest is probably a Lord of The Rings reference.

At the end of the Return of the King (book and film), when Sam and Frodo are on the mountain, Frodo says:

"I'm glad to be with you, Samwise Gamgee, here at the end of all things."

I'm betting the blizz devs are fantasy and LotR fans so i'm sure this is a reference..

Kommentar von Liri

I had the sound up doing the quest and notices something that makes it MUCH easier. When you hit #1 to launch your dragon breath you hear a button click and a moment later a second click when it actually launched. So fly, pause, fire, dodge, fire again. It was incredibly easy compared to the hard time I had before with that knowledge.

And Id like to chime in that resummoning a wyrm is better than feeding it. And if you die spirit rez, he ignores your sickness.

Kommentar von Omencaller

Note, do not fly back up to the floating castle. You will be dismounted, unable to resummon the dragon ("You are in the wrong zone.") or even use the gryphons to fly back down ("You are busy and can't use the taxi service now.").

Kommentar von 319466

easy and fun quest if you find your self low on health and or mana go to safety dismount and remount full health and mana sorted keep doing till finished

Kommentar von 230694

My way of completing this is to hover at a level below the ballistae on the towers in the walls, and above the ones on the ground. I alternate between two of the gaps in the walls, just firing away to kill soldiers and the single ballista that spawns in each of the groups. You can get a good many soldiers and ballistae fairly quickly that way. The ballistae on the towers can't point down, so the only heavy hits you'll take are from the ones on the ground, and you'll only have one of those firing at you at a time. I also use the resummoning trick, except I never risk dismounting in the fields, I always head back up to Arthas. A ballista bolt can kill you in one shot, and the elite mobs will take you out elsewhere.

Fun quest though, and the helm's a good reward until Outland.

Kommentar von Rankkor

this is the most entertaining quest in the chain, (yhea even more than the light of dawn, since there u mostly wach but do nothing at all)

is also pretty easy unless u lag, I died 3 times but all 3 were just lag.

just keep the A button pressed, and the right mouse button pressed, and keep moving the mouse to the right, what this will do is that the dragon will strafe in a circle, while keeping the aiming reticle centered in the center of that circle, that way u can fire and dodge incoming arrows and javelins easily.

I wish I could keep this dragon :)

Kommentar von 320155

If you're like me and you die multiple times before coming to this thread for help and need to repair afterward, go back to Acherus Hold to the level you started (through the pink teleporter) to find a repair NPC

Kommentar von 335646

If you accidentally land your dragon, pressing and holding the space bar will allow you to take to the skies again.

Kommentar von 108724

Always move around or the ballistas and stuff will hit u :)

Kommentar von dreadblood

one thing of note: when U dismount the dragon it does NOT give U a parachute buff.. I learned that the hard way :D

Kommentar von calophi

Be forewarned - if you leave the designated battlefield area for too long, the dragon will disappear from out from under you and you will be dropped. I was dropped while flying over the mountains to the beach area to see if there were any troops there. =D

Kommentar von 207462

I absolutely ****** hated this stupid quest !

Kommentar von 283939

Hard but fun quest :)

Kommentar von neithskye

Note that your Frostbrood Vanquisher appears to have a time limit.

I am not very good with vehicle quests, so I was taking my time. I was almost done when I got a, "Health Low" message and the Vanquisher just died.

All the Combat Log said was, "Frostbrood Vanquisher dies". Nothing hit me. I went from 100% health to a dead Vanquisher in a second.

This of course dropped me into the field below directly into two Elites. I put up a good fight, but, yeah, dead Death Knight.

I really have no clue what happened. My Vanquisher just died and despawned. I was most annoyed.

Kommentar von aanjuan

You can not be grouped while doing this quest.

Kommentar von 346509

i can't blow in the horn i have been everywhere and trying! it just stands you cant use that here. what is the problem?
I think its maybe a bugg but what shuld i do if it is a bugg?

Kommentar von 347786

I had a terrible time with this one. Most notably I had trouble controlling the Vanquisher. Also trying to hit the Ballistas from the air was frustrating because they weren't registering damage. I came up with, quite by accident, an unorthodox solution. You can start back at the lumber mill or right up by the fortress. In either location you can fly low to the ground, almost into the ground if you are careful. From there you can use the breath weapon/blast to "sweep" the area. It's very easy to do this by the lumber mill because you aren't dodging the Ballistas. You can also eat the crusaders for mana with no trouble and they cause very little damage to you or the Vanquisher. This same technique becomes more kamikaze near the fortress, but you can take out 3 Ballistas before taking any real damage. And if you die and your armor turns to crap just rez and summon a new wyrm. You can do this over and over until you get the 10. Just remember to fly the wyrm back up to the breach and go make repairs at the Ebon Hold before you turn in the quest. Dismount in the breach, then take the taxi up to the hold. Take the teleporter up to the 2nd floor. The repair person is near the Rune Forge. If you don't have much money you can always run over to the plague cauldron and create the special brew with the skulls you collected on previous quests before heading back to the breach. Then sell that to the repair person.

Kommentar von Belse

A tip for some of you who have issues with this quest:

Do not use your keyboard to fly. You will move a lot faster if you use your mouse and it's easy to dodge the ballistas. And since you're holding both mouse buttons you will always see where your attacks will hit.

Kommentar von 397381

Hi all i am new here and i wana ask 2 questions. First - From which NPC can i get the quest ? Second - How much and which quests are above this ?

Kommentar von Desado

I done this quest very easily.When your dragon is low at hp,fly on rocks(mobs can't reach you in there),dismount,call again that dragon and he will have all hp once again:)
Maybe its not the best way to do it,but you don't have to worry about death.

Kommentar von 267881

lol i was leveling my dk when i came to this quest instead of the dragon quest item i got a freaking dragon mount its cool but wtf i cant use it there and i cant proceed my dk until i pass that quest >.>

Kommentar von 413396

In the newer patches it is Scarlet Soldiers slain (100)

Kommentar von 389201

This quest is a bit of a teaser, since it will be a while before most people get their own flying mount. I got done rather quickly and spent quite some time just flying around randomly before sadly turning it in.

Kommentar von diagl

Done this a few times now, and here's my advice.

Firstly, keep you're right mouse button clicked. This shows you were you're going to shoot, and you'll know when to fire.

Secondly, don't stay still; do bombing runs. You'll get hit occasionally, but nothing too serious as long as you keep moving.

Thirdly, when you're low on either health (unlikely) or mana (much more likely), fly back to the cauldron in the middle of the field. Dismount, and turn all the skulls you have into potions, up to a maximum of 20 potions. Then re-summon the dragon, and it'll have full health and mana.

Kommentar von 179948

Hey the horn of the frostbroom doesnt work it says you cant use that item here and it says that it can only be used in outlands and northrend any help

Kommentar von 432997

When i go to use the horn of the frostbrood it says you cannot use this here and then when i put my mouse over it to look at it it says i can only use it in out lands or northrend is there any sujjestions on what i should do? i have tryed restarting the quest many times. is there a specific place i need to go?

Kommentar von 433665

i cant complete the quest, i dont get the white , i get a epic fly mount instead :S so i cant do the quest :(

when i hold on it it says : Use: Summons and dismisses a rideable Frostwyrm Mount. This is a very fast mount. This mount can only be used in Outland and Northrend.

i did upload a scrnshot but i dont know when u will be able to see it :P

if any1 can help me to get the correct quest item, i would be very greatful :P

Kommentar von zorbo

I have a problem with this quest, the item you get to summon the dragon says "Use: Summons and dismisses a rideable Frostwyrm Mount. This is a very fast mount. Can only be summoned in Outland or Northrend." And when i try to click on it it says "You can't use that here." Anyone have any suggestions what to do?

Kommentar von 436300

Seems like in 3.1.3 the quest is kind of bugged, since the provided quest item (Horn of the FrostBrood) Now is an epic flying mount. Seriously i'm not kidding, i have a screenshot if you don't believe me. When you click on the item it says: You can't use that here aswell as the item says : blablabla, This is a very fast mount. This item can only be used in Outland and Northrend, was in kind of hurry writing the comment, so that's why the blablabla , ahwell strange bug imo.

Kommentar von antisocialian

i found with this quest, it doesn't always count when i destroy a ballista(not sure if i'm maybe too far away), some of the humans don't die, they just keep taking damage, and when i'm done and dismount i'm still in combat and can't get out until i log(which means no ebon hold if you lvl, no mounting to get to the next step quicker, also no putting on the new helmet you get).

anyone else notice this?

Kommentar von 545863

I can't summon the mount, when I click on the horn I call it but nothing happens the mount doesn't come.
Please help. I'm with patch 3.2.2a

Kommentar von 550502

YOU that have problems with summon the whyrm, just delete the cache folder ( C:\Program\World of Warcraft\Cache)
When cache folder deleted just start wow and you can do summon the whyrm .

If you still have problems make GM ticket :)

Kommentar von DkMages97

i dont get it i killed all the soldiers and all the ballistas but they arent counting the ballistas!

Kommentar von 631075

It is kind of hard but all you have to do is just stay as high upon the air as you can while still being able to shoot the ballistas. You won't get credit for every one destroyed. Also don't waste your time eating the dead just dismount somewhere safe and call it again.

Kommentar von 660796

i think that this quest is bugged big time because every time i try to mount the wyrm when im not in combat and im outside it says you cannot mount here everytime i rez i got cb and i instantly died so can you guys help me out here please?

Kommentar von 748581

Okay... I had super trouble with this quest... i.e., Always dying...

Here's the answer... Just fly around in a circle while targeting anything with red above it... It took me like 30 seconds to finish it, minus the ballistas of course... But super easy once you get the hang of it.

Kommentar von nikongirl24

This was so helpful to me. I tried this quest... died twice. I was aggravated because I couldn't control the trajectory of the blast. I wish we could focus better and actually aim. Bah. Good quest though. :)

Kommentar von 786723

what would happen if you dc'd in the middle of the quest?

Kommentar von Levinaxr

Is it just me or does the dragon yell all the time, and then, how do you stand it!

It drove me crazy, he really yelled all the time, spamming the tell macro likely. Just wanted to know if it is so or just to me...

Kommentar von lightclaw

I hope it was just me, but the instant I mounted the dragon for this quest, my toon began cheering and didn't stop until the quest was complete. Quite possibly the most annoying thing I've experienced in 6 years of WoW.

Kommentar von Cariea

If you happen to be a worgen, prepare yourself for incessant roaring until you get off the dragon.

Kommentar von Arthusii

Tip: If ur a Nelf use Shadowmeld after u turn the quest in. It will automatically take u out of combat.

Kommentar von 868425

Well, i guess i am different than like every other person who commented, but i thought this was kinda difficult. I died and landed right in between 2 mobs. Every time i would come back to life, i could move an inch to take cover without dieing again. I did see someones comment to try and come back to life inside a house, which i was finally able to do. However, you can't fit the vanquisher you mount out of the door. I tried inching out and mounting, still didn't work. Needless to say, i had issues....So my advice, should this happen to you, rez in a house if you can and just hearth home and start again.

Kommentar von 928313

Found this super frustrating! The animal/dragon is so large that it obscures the field. The trajectory of the weapon is insane, the higher you fly, the farther the shot. It's not so hard to kill 150 citizens but the billestas (sp) are super agressive. Plus, they disappear and even when hit, don't die from one shot.
I kept falling from the animal for no apparent reason and landing smack dab in the field. It didn't help that I was poor as a church mouse and my armor was shot to hell. The one good thing is that a fresh animal has full health.
I finally killed the billestas by focusing acutely on their pillars and waiting from far above. It took hours! I get that this quest is supposed to be challenging but I really think it needs fine tuning to make it FUN, which is the point, after all.

Kommentar von 885261

This is (now?) a very easy quest. Just do it from outside the fortifications. You can take down the ballistas on the towers without taking damage since you have a higher range. And there are enough crusaders running around outside, too.

Kommentar von Fluffmeister

Totally screwed on this one, despite reading the comments on this thread. Killed 150 soldiers no problem, and didn't get attacked once by any ballistas. They were quite a long way south - so by the time I'd killed the soldiers, going to the lumber mill (to avoid the ballistas as Cryptcreeper suggested) wasn't an option, since they're out of reach there.

So I went to the ballistas, eventually managed to destroy one but only after dying several times. I can't seem to dodge them while also hitting them (they need LOTS of hits to destroy one).

Now my corpse is in the middle of where the ballistas are, and within a second of resurrecting, I just die again. I've spent about three hours doing this quest and am getting nowhere - my armour is totally destroyed, I've run out of gold fixing it, and will have to get resurrection sickness in order to leave the battleground - and if I abandon the quest I don't seem to have any others to do.

Kommentar von Horsebananas

Im guessing the quest was nerfed between the last comment and now. I had an easy time with it.

First, if you keep falling off the dragon its one of two things: You took a lot of damage and it died or you flew outside the designated zone for the quest. The zone is very similar to that of one of the first zone quests: The Eye of Acherus.

Second, I flew the dragon into the zone then ran on the ground spamming the frost attack. I payed special attention to my health and mana. When it ran low i "ate" a crusader and flew to the sky until the I could attack or eat again. Once I was at 100% on both I continued running on the ground spamming the attack. Super easy.

On a side note, this has got to be one of the most fun quests Ive done. Unlike billy goat punching I have to turn it in to move forward ;(

Kommentar von 999917

I'd find this quest really easy if only for the fact that none of my kills are being counted... so does anyone have a solution for this? I tried dying, logging out, abandoning the quest than picking it up again... and still nothing please help.

Kommentar von Oathark

The finish quest words with my name.

" Kneel, champion. I place this helm upon your head to complete your terrifying visage.

Let non stand against your king as to face your merciless wrath,

There is one final task.

Kommentar von 1014137

Okay, I registered with this site just to comment on this quest, and how ridiculously broken it is. Not only can I not rez without rez sickness (because my body is in the middle of the battlefield), I can't even rez with rez sickness because there's a ballista that hits me in the graveyard. On top of this, there are soldiers who take damage and don't die, or are counted as slain but stay alive and keep shooting at me. On top of all this, my one attack randomly stops working despite having full mana, and all my armor has 0 durability left but there's nowhere to go for repairs.

Anyone have any idea how you're supposed to complete this quest?

Kommentar von bengrimm99

I've done the DK starter area a few times now and admittedly its a love hate thing...I did, once, have the trouble with the kills not recording properly and the mount not staying airborne, but most of the time, the biggest trouble was the balistas. Those things are deadly and like to coordinate their attacks. I finally figured out (duh, ikr) that the wyrm's range is much farther than the balistas. You can hover over the cauldron in the field and hit ALL of them. Just sit there and pick them off at your leisure. GL

Kommentar von 896921

The Balistas are large catapult-like arrow firing machines. They are located on top of the towers of the castle as well as on the ground surrounded by soldiers. It takes 3 or 4 hits to kill each one.

The soldiers fire arrows and the Balistas fire large bolts that pack a whallop. I killed 3 of the tower Balistas, but didn't get credit for them.

The strategy I found works best is to zoom the view in so you don't see your mount at all. Then fly high and target the circle of soldiers surrounding a Balista. Fly straight at it, fire when you are getting low, then immediately hit the spacebar to climb back up. The Balistas fire will go below you. Repeat.

If you run out of firepower, or health gets low, go back to the Lick King area. There are 4 or 5 soldiers attacking that base that your mount can eat to recharge.

There are no townsfolk to do repairs and you can't take the taxi. I even tried going to Light's Hope Chapel, but it was evacuated.

If you die, rez away from soldiers or you could die quickly. You might have to rez at he GY and take the sickness penalty.

Kommentar von 931994

TIL if you hearth to Ebon Hold before completing this quest, you cannot use the taxi to leave EH. After dropping quest, I still couldn't use taxi. Reloading didn't take me out of combat, either. Nor could I leap off the balcony to die. I had to relog and start all over.

Kommentar von sweboy99

The worst part of this quest is that you're in combat forever after.
Completed the quest at the Lich King and got the follow-up, but can't mount. Can't use taxi to Ebon Hold, can't equip the new helmet.

Relogging did the trick.

The trick is to do what WW2 fighter pilots did: dive and shoot, then rise again, rinse repeat.

Never stand still because you'll get nuked down in a few seconds.

When you are out of energy don't use the devour humanoid. Just fly outide the gates ( go a bit farther to be safe ) and dismount wait untill dismounted and use the horn again.

Kommentar von Esploratore

Annoying thing of this quest is that after completing you were in combat for like 2 mins; I had levelled 22 dks (not joking, made so many to have more chances at onyxia and now that I got it at the headless horseman mount) in the past months, ALWAYS got stuck in combat for like 2 mins, all were before patch 5.2, now that it's been introduced, today I levelled 3 dks, all 3 dks were out of combat 3 seconds after completing the quest: blizzard finally fixed this with 5.2.

Here some info to add to the first comment. I'm a stuborn kind of girl so I like to try things on my own before I look for help. I didn't look for help untill I had 50 soldiers on this quest.
So first I tried the flying thing with the mouse I guess I didn't get it because it didn't work for me.
So the other thing I tried was sorta did what the first comment says except I stayed around the behind the couldren area, but it was to slow.
I really didn't want to be going back an forth but I tried it anyway. It worked except the slow damage part. I don't know but maybe I was doing it wrong. I spent all the gold I had been given with all the quests before and silver I had gotten from drops. But it was alot faster than just flying and attacking. But since I had done this after a long while I still had 5 ballistas left after I was done with my soldiers.
So instead of chancing another few rounds for damage control. I flew my mount high where they couldn't reach and went past the gate and turned around facing the gate. From there I had the Ballistas on the walls in my sight. Now I'm one that could care less about finishing quickly so I just positioned my mount to attack the closest Ballista and killed it then waited for it to respon. They actually respawn kinda fast thou. I could probally count to 7 and it would be back. I did find just staying in that front gate on ground pointing right into the ground helped alot. I probally will do it that way from the begining If I make another DK.

2 things:
- if you kill the ballistas, specially from above, sometimes you do not get credit. but it is at least 50% chance.
- there is no fast way of doing this. just take your time and you will get it done.

edit: i have killed today about 6 ballistas from up in the sky and gotten only 1 credit!

Kommentar von 1112109

sounds perfect but I have trouble flying the stupid thing up /down etc
Any hints?

Kommentar von Caissa

I had the same problem as quite a few others here, namely that I "killed" quite a lot of the ballistas, but none of them counted towards the quest. Then I noticed the ballistas sitting on top of the towers at the outskirts of the quest area and targeted/killed one. Those counted without a fail and let me complete the quest.

Kommentar von 1125828

Whenever I do this quest, I fly to the Scarlet Tavern area (which is deserted) and take out the groups in that area (which I do by repeating fire at the ballista in the centre)
When health/mana goes down, I return to the orchard and dismount

Kommentar von SpakyTwo

The very best spot for this quest is 63.6, 78.6. Which is just north west of the docks that the Scarlet Crusade is leaving from to go to Northrend where you delivered the Scarlet Messengers letter while disguised as that messenger.

There is a little out cropping that you can hover above ( just a little way above) and shoot two ballistas per round and 15-20 soldiers and they will not attack you until you attack them. Once they are dead you can land and respawn your mount, rinse and repeat. The respawn rate on the ballistas and soldiers is fairly fast. Make to "reload" after reload after the second round and do not attack them with low mana or you will have to go up and break combat and come back down.

This is VERY close to the out of area zone. So be careful or you will be dropped. I got Wie tief kann man fallen? while doing this.

Make sure you fly as high as you can go so that you don't get slaughtered as you fly over New Avalon. However, when get to the spot. Hover just above the ground (as stated above) and it does not appear that the ballistas can hit you.

Good Luck and Have fun.

I still died twice even after reading this. Then I decided to just press both mouse buttons. You can then just fly around and spam #1. I didn't get hit at all, and it was over in about a minute. Easy to steer and you're continuously moving.

Kommentar von majesticPhaZon

This was fairly simple.

Here are the steps to completion.

1: Go outside of the gates and kill the soldiers IN THE FIELDS (like where the ghouls and the abominations are). You are guaranteed to finish off all 150 of them so easily.

2: Destroy the ballistas on the top of the towers only. Since they respawn quickly, you always have a chance to try again after failure.

You're done.

Kommentar von ChildinTime

Ran into a bug on this quest, involving worgens.

Bug: Could not fire off the Deathchill(dragon's breath), even though the 1 key blinked as if being interacted with. Even without addons installed.

Fix: Land in a safe spot, shift out of Worgen form into Human form(yes, really, lol). Use the quest item again.

Hope this saves someone some time, it drove me mad for about 30minutes.

Kommentar von Itfiggures

Walk around on the ground with the dragon and shoot everything at point blank range. Easy.

Kommentar von Archanos

This is by my opinion the most fun quest in the hole of the game! :D
You ride a undead dragon to bring down cold death's embrace on your your enemies! :D

Kommentar von Monomatapa

Don't do as I did:
I finished my last kill and decided to leave the dragon by clicking the corresponding button. I didn't end up next to the lich king though, as I expected, but floated down on a parachute, in the middle of hostile territory. They are all elites, so I died a zillion times before I got out of there... :(

Kommentar von vikn

Funny thing about this quest is that you can actually lift up and transport scarlet mob to where ever you want using the third ability. Your wyrm will ocationally drop them but that's fine, they won't reset and you can just pick them up again using the third ability. I picked up a crusader and brought him alive to The Lich King (who didn't care at all about my nice offering). The elite crusader then vent on and killed me after I've dissmounted the wyrm in order to turn in the quest, and even after I ressurected the crusader was still there next to The Lich King.

You can also take them and drop them off into the sea (risk of you getting dismounted) or leave them ontop of high Towers.

Kommentar von Lafeoverde

I found this easiest while flying way high up, at the point where you can just barely see the targets. No incoming fire there.

Kommentar von Xuper

Never click "exit" when you're done. just get to Lich king and click Exit

Kommentar von jkurkul

This quest reminded me why I stopped leveling DK's.

Kommentar von Nadeshlko

I had an issue with this quest, I couldn't cast the spells while on the dragon. Nothing worked. reload. log out, etc. Finally I logged out and logged back in on another character. Then I logged off and got back on to my DK and the quest was fixed. Hope this helps if someone has the same issue.

Kommentar von Katardre

This is stupid. You fire four or five times and have to either find a safe place to dismount/remount, or you have to fly down and grab a crusader to refill your health/mana dodging everything in the process. I remember doing this quest way back when and it was no where near this hard. The dragon could actually take some serious damage before dying back then. Now, it gets hit a couple times and dies, which dumps you into hostile elite mobs where you WILL die. It's like they left the mana requirements for Frozen Deathbolt and the damage the ballistas do at the level they were when you were 55-60 doing this quest instead of dropping them to something more reasonable for a level 15-20 like they should have so you use up all your mana in 4 or 5 shots and the ballistas can kill you in 3-4 hits. It's not fun. Oh, and sometimes the kills don't count on the ballistas so this whole quest takes infinitely longer than it should because you have to collect a crusader to restore your mana after every ballista kill. It didn't used to be this hard. I finally got it done by kill a ballista, die, rez at graveyard, mount up, repeat. They really need to reduce the mana cost of Frozen Deathbolt and increase the health of the Frostbrood Vanquisher dragon so you stand a chance of doing this without dying a bunch of times.

Kommentar von corvenos

BEWARE! blizz kinda screwed this quest up in the past few months i leveled a few DK's and you could 1 shot the ballista's and take dmg now as of writing this u get burned down almost instantly and takes 4-5 shots for ballista's.

Kommentar von videotape

For years and years, this quest was basically a joke: 2-shot ballistas, maybe have to eat once to refill energy.

Now it's way overtuned. Let me count the ways in which it sucks:

Ballistas have much more health, and it regenerates fast.
You get off maybe 5 or 6 attacks before you have to refill mana by eating someone.
Eating doesn't even restore all of your health or mana. Maybe half?
The ballista projectiles are way faster than they used to be. You will get hit, often without even seeing the projectile.
The ballista projectiles take almost half of your health. Two hits along with any other ambient damage and you're dead.

The Scarlet Crusade has its revenge.
