This guy was an easy kill, but from using him as a minion later, he's not worth the hassle. He attacks you after 5 minutes until you enslave him again, at which time he becomes immune to fear, and then he becomes increaingly harder to enslave due to the nature of the enslave spell. He can't hold aggro and has a poor set of attack skills, the ONLY thing this guy is good at is PVP, he actually rocks there....send him in to a group of the enemy and watch the damage and bodies fly....till some bright spark of a warlock banishes him..

At level 55, myself and a 60 warrior took him down. Curse of weakness to lessen the damage, then nuked him until I pulled aggro or warrior got weak. Then banished him, giving us time to bandage up. If already bandaged debuff wasn't up yet, just rebanish ASAP. Took some time and a bunch of bandages, but we got him.

lvl 53 warlock, 1st try

thought i would do straight up melee fight going in so was prepared to cast bluey over and over, but seeing as bluey was getting killed in 5-8 hits went to plan B.

fear...fear...fear...fear. just kept stacking CoA, Corruption and Immolate. didnt nuke at all. allow your dots to do their work and wand if you want, but stand outside fear distance so you have time to re-cast.

and as someone mentioned earlier, banish him when your dots are about to expire. and bandage up, recast bluey (sacrifice comes in handy when fear/banish gets resisted) didnt even have him attack just in case he could break fear.

even died once because i got lazy (he was down to 10%), but used my soulstone and caught him back at 50%.

if i could do it over again, could get in a groove much easier.

Rediculously easy to solo at level 57. Just kept him feared the whole time, had my succy beating on him with the dots ticking away, and he went down without ever even hitting me. I even got off a soulfire just for the hell of it :D

he is at 46, 35

I just solod him at level 52. Just kept him DoTed and feared the whole time. I banished him once so i could life tap and bandage because my imp ran out of mana.

Комментарий от Thottbot

At lvl 55, I successfully soloed Kroshius after a number of tries. I'm affliction spec'd. What finally worked for me was this: started out with void, sacrificed void for shield 1/3 of the way through, then summoned imp and kept it out of combat as a mana battery so I could keep those DoTs up. I kept him feared as much as possible and banished when I needed to bandage up. Not impossible, but definitely not easy.

Комментарий от Thottbot

I imagine it would be quite easy to solo with the felguard. If you're aff spec like me though, just bring out your felhunter beforehand, fear, dot, dark pact, (lifetap if needed, in which case, drain life), fear, dot, drain life, etc.

Fortunately, I had a 60 mage to help me out. The infernal one-shotted his water elemental and nearly killed us both because we got too cocky.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Those of you who said you have a hard time dealing with this guy while affliction specced, you must've done something wrong. For me as a lvl 54 affliction lock it was incredibly easy. Sure when he got in melee range it really hurt, but with fear and constant dottage he was down after a few minutes.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Lvl 51 shadow spec priest (me) and my lvl 51 demon spec lock friend just tried this... it's is IMPOSSIBLE . ^_^ Was worth a shot though.

We'll be coming back at 52 or 53.

Enjoy :)

EDIT: We tried again with my 61 arms warrior main... took two tries, but we got it.

Комментарий от Thottbot

Im not sure whether it has been changed or not, but im a 53 lock and the only fear spell that would work for me was death coil... the rest sucked. Just thought I'd let people know, cos this wasnt as easy as it seemed. Especially since he hits for 1k, and when you cant keep him feared it makes life difficult. Took him down with myself and 60 mage, and i used a health pot and a soulstone along the way.

Oh, and why did no one mention the chicken?

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just soloed this guy(i'm 53)..... just use fear on him to make him run, and keep de-buffing him when he runs.... took about 5 min. to kill him..... simple as that...

Комментарий от Thottbot

Just solo'd him (by myself) at level 50.

Use curse of exhaustion and kite him around, keep your DoTs on him, he has around 15k hp it will take a few minutes.

Keep your imp out to dark pact from and you shouldn't ever get completely oom.

Fear if you want, it's a nice backup incase curse of exhaustion gets repeatedly resisted.

I ended up using death coil twice, so took about 3 minutes to kill him but it was done.

Cheers!

We took him down with a level 60 restoration druid and myself, a 50 affliction-ruin warlock. We just kept rooting him and nuking him while our dots ticked away at him. If he gets close to you, you're toast- he can punt you, and he hits for over 600 damage. He has no ranged attacks, so keep your distance and you'll be fine. As stated previously, he has LOTS of hp. Long battle. I'd suggest curse of shadow so your mana spent in shadow bolts will really count.

why does everyone write and no-one read?
all of your stories are the same essentially, I don't have time for this.

I KNOW HOW TO USE BASIC CONTROLS ALREADY, so submit a screenshot in stead of writing your lame experiences

jeez..

Комментарий от Allakhazam

It's written Kroshius is lvl 53 to 55 does that mean he's lvl 53, 54, 55 or can be any of those? At what lvl can you fight him without him resisting all your spells?

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I am an Affliction lock. Lev 51. I usually don't have much trouble with elites at or even a level or two above me. I tried to kill him three times today. Had help from a 52 rouge. It was ugly. He is very easy to fear and banish but he hits REALLY HARD. I did the best when I enslaved one of the roaming infernals (lev 52 elite) and we got him down to about 30% life. It was going pretty good. Then the enslave broke and I wasn't fast enough to get it back. We got squished. Kroshius seems to be underpowered for an elite of his level so I think once I hit 52 I should stand a much better chance. Definitely need another caster to help if you are not equal to his level. Another lock would be gravy since then we could have all kinds of pets beating on him. Now I need to go fix my damn armor.

PS.....he resisted my first two fears. After that the rest took just fine. Usually lasted for the full duration of the spell. He resisted my CoA once or twice but everything else was just fine.

done it as lvl 51 with 70mage:-)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Level 57, affliction based lock. The trick to soloing this guy is fear(of course) and shadow bolt spamming. Best pet for this is imp as a mana battery. Long fight though he's got thousands of hp

Комментарий от Allakhazam

we tried to kill him in a 4 men group, when the game crashed at all 4 players at the same time, in the moment that one of us died...

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Soloed as 53 Warlock, Demo Specc

Комментарий от Allakhazam

What happen if you didn't manage to kill kroshius during the time you summoned him? he's back to being a pile of rubble for me, i spent about 30 mins waiting for a friend to tank... and now... POOF! i'm a bit panicked now cause i don't know how to get him summoned up again!

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I actually had a lvl 70 hunter help me with Kroshius, we spawned him (he yells: "Kroshius live? Kroshius crush!") and of course got him down, no real problems. But during the fight i noticed Kroshius hit my felguard... for 900+ dmg. OMG! How is that possible? Instant pyroblast or does he always hit like this? Wow after having seen that I begin to wonder how can a lvl 52 solo him. I mean fear and dot ok, but you ought to have him hit you a few times... and with 900 dmg per hit, well these few times will be more than enough.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I hit level 54 getting the last fel essence in felwood, went right over and downd him with no problems. currently my spec is 31/0/14, had my imp out for mana. He hits for around 650 and crits for over 1300, so be sure to chain fear and keep the dots up. got just under 2000k xp for the kill (was rested) and 7050xp for completing the quest. not too shabby

I did this at 54, solo. I enslaved an Infernal Bodyguard for help. I basically kept fearing Kroshius, I kept all my dots on him, and I let the Infernal Beat on him for extra DPS. I had the Infernal enslaved for about two minutes before I started the fight, and at about 10% it wore off. I banished the Infernal and just kept fearing Kroshius. As everyone else said, the key is fear, but I copied Rukku and decided to enslave an Infernal also. It works quite well, the Infernal Bodyguard was hitting for 200-300.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I did this at lvl 52 solo it was pretty easy imo. Just dot and fear, didnt really need curse of shadows since with the Suppression talent he stayed feared for a pretty good amount of time with each cast. Oh and I also enslaved an Infernal Sentry to help me damage him >:D muhahaha. Fight fire with fire, or in this case Infernal with Infernal.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I downed him @ 50 with 2 hunters (50, 51). We died the first two times (each time we died, he was standing right where we rezzed him). Fear kiting is the way to go. I let the hunters do most of the DPS, And Just used Curse of Exhaustion, Siphon Life and Corruption, and kept him feared anytime he got close to one of us. When we used this strategy, none of us got hit even once.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Just soloed him with one of the infernals. Only problem was that it didnt hold aggro... so i had fear, DoT, repeat. My infernal attacked like a succumbus with more armor. I dont recomend grabbing an infernal, instead just use your void and when it looses aggro chain fear.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I am having loads of trouble with this guy. I can usually solo elites up to two levels above me but he is killing my VW in three hits my battle chicken in two and me in two more. I keep trying to fear like the advice but he runs to far sometimes and he does a knockback when i get any closer allowing him two hits on any creature i use.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Tried this at 54,real close to 55.Tried all the tips above,but couldn't keep a pet alive.Almost took him without pet,but ran out of mana and options,and died for about the 5th time.Enslaved Immolatus,but by time i got back,Kros had vanished.So i dismissed and banished Immolatus and took break.Flew to Everlook,turned in another quest and hit lv55.Then I went back to impsy,got the quest again and grabbed Immolatus again.He took out Kros with little trouble,I just had to keep Kros feared as noted above to keep him off my ass.Once I looted Kros,I dismissed Immolatus,banished him and ran like hell.Not going to spoil the surprise,but the gnome gives you a lil challenge after you get new spell and item.Enjoy.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

I guess you should abandon the quest and then take it back.

Soloed him being warlock 52 , Affliction-Dark Pact specced (and destruction).Was a long fight , but was pretty cool :-) Fear and DoT and try to cast Shadow Blot from Time to time.
This fight is long and you'll need Dark Pact if you try it being 55 or less IMO.To make it esaier just let your pet on passive , otherwise he'll just run all over the place trying to catch the feared inferno , thus not allowing you to smooth Dark Pact when you need it.
Died like 4 times before figuring the correct way to do it.He can knockback you so be aware , if he manages to do that then...you're in major trouble , as you cannot let him hit you more than twice.I suggest you save your cooldown potion timer for Mana pots rather than Health.Just use first aid and healthstone if you get low on HP.
Good luck , it might be tricky , but it's a cool challenge ;-)

Комментарий от Allakhazam

easy kill, even though he is a 55 elite, i killed him at level 52 warlock. just get your felhunter to attack and cast health funnel the whole time. it will take a little while but in the end, it's worth it.

Комментарий от Vahdis

Easy soloed at level 52, just feared and dotted. Don't chase him let him run back then fear again and refresh dots.

He will sometimes knock you up in the air doing a decent amount of damage then start attacking your pet, just fear him again and heal up if you need while he runs off.

Комментарий от Fier11

Soloed this at lvl 53. I had my voidwalker out and had him fight Kroshius for a few seconds. He got my voidwalker down to pretty low health in about 4 hits (he attacks pretty slow, though). Before my Voidwalker could die, I used Demonic Embrace for the 3%hp4 and I just kept him feared. This was a lot easier than I thought it would be. He never touched me. Demonic Embrace was enough to keep my health high enough to continually lifetap and have enough mana to keep dots up and feared and I even got in a soulfire and a shadowbolt. I never had to bandage or use a health stone.
