Easy to kite as a 68 fire mage (the running speed on boots can be a plus)

javada의 댓글

69 hunter kited successfully. Didnt need pet. I used the follwing kiting path: starting from where you find him, then follow the path to eco-dome midrealm (dont enter eco-dome), follow path around ot the left over towards area 52 and if you haven't killed him by the time you reach Area52, follow the path to your left before actually entering Area52. Very little adds along this route to give you any bother. Stay out of his reach and use aspect of cheetah all the way. Seems to be immune to concuss and freeze traps did not work on him for me. Used acrane and serpent sting to grind him down.

Soloed as 70 warlock, he is immune to fear and snares, just Drain Tanked him down, at like 50% he summons little rock minions that hurt, just AOE'd fear and kept my eye on the prize, Had to use HS and a super healing pot though! GL!

Solo'd as a 70 feral druid. I ended up going bear form and slowly backing him up down the road closest to him all the while dpsing with maul and mangle. When I kept moving, the adds he spawned did not aggro on me, they just sat in the middle of the road. (might have just been bugged though)

A couple of side notes:
Apex hit me (with 11k armor (53% mitigation) in bear) for around 200 so it was very managable and could heal through it.

He was not immune to Bash nor Cyclone. I did not try roots as I only needed Cyclone to get heal off.

He does a Thunder Clap type move that slows your movement speed (might have done something else as well, but i can't recall). So if you are trying to simply kite him around, try not to get to close.

Lastly, I cannot confirm this as I did not engage his adds, but other druids have told me that his adds are rootable.

Soloed as a 70 hunter. Kited down from Duro to Sunfury Hold, then down around past Coruu.

Easily done with Cheetah, no really hard mobs to path around.

Easy with the Fetish of the Sand reaver. 70 Lock. Incinerate/Destro. Had VW tank with festish up and then poped soul shatter. VW was able to tank the whole fight with those two de-agros till he was dead. :)

just keep kite it slowly beyond the road
and leave the small apex alone.

PrimEviL의 댓글

did it as retri pala, tho had to use both bubbles and LoH.
somebody said above that he's a demon. wrong. a giant.

Keelin의 댓글

Can be solo as Demo Warlock. Dont need to kite, just tank and spank Apex.

Coordinate is correct, note however he does roam about a little so you can wait for him to get nearer to the road so you can pull him safely.

(Pull him to the road, inside there have stealth mobs) Dots him up ... heal Felguard... renew Dots as needed. When spawn adds ... get your Felguard to hit each of them at least once (he spawn 3 adds, they have about 1k plus hp each, Felguard does cleave so if the adds lose about 1mm hp from the cleave you are fine .. switch back to Apex, kill him first).

Note: Apex does not hit hard on your Felguard, you can Drain Life him if you see you Felguard HP is enuf (3K plus). Dmg increase when the adds spawn.

Can also be solo'd by a mage, like most stuff.

Sick your ele on him, put shield on, crack trinket, smack him with some 3k frostbolts, blink, more frostbolts untill he's in your face, hit cooldown, shield, pull out ele, frostnova adds, blink, more frostbolts, fireblast ,cone of cold, should be done with him, finish adds, sit, drink, /yawn.

No fear, no kite, no dots, just power.

kjeksomanen의 댓글

unfearable.

He can't be kited very far since he'll evade and run back. Also, he spawns various adds at roughly 80% and 50%, maybe more later (I couldn't solo him). The spawns can be feared, the the mob himself not.

It's also impossible to kite him across the bridge, since he'll evade in the middle of it and run back. Perhaps there's a trick, but I had him dotted and did heal myself, so aggro was definitely there.

shockwaver의 댓글

Soloed as a 70 shadowpriest. Just blasted him with everything I had. He is immune to fear, but his adds are not. So I managed to fear them 3 times, while nuking. After he was dead I just went out of aggro range and adds dissapeared. Returned and looted. Piece of cake.
Good location is near the bridge and road at 51,70.

Respawn timer is rather fast. He respawned while I wrote this. :)

Level 68 shadow priest solo'd. Was a very challenging kill at my level. No potions or anything like that. Did drop shadowform to heal for the first time in the Outlands though. He hits for ~500 damage on cloth.

Soloed as Destro Lock, had a fun time kiting him around Area 52, all the way from 52,68
pulled with shadow bolt, ran like hell while i constantly threw CoA on him, and when Shadowfury CD was done i stunned him with it
The Thunderclap made it even easier to solo because he had to stop while using it, more time for me :D
quite simple AND fun :P

Soloed this as a 70 fury warrior, but I did die at the end.

Popped most of my cooldowns (Recklessness, Death Wish, Bladefist's Breadth), and brought him down fast, because I read somewhere up that he becomes weaker the more his health goes down. So I tried to get him to low HP asap.

Near the end I used Last Stand (got my last points in prot, very handy). When his adds came I feared those and spam-executed Apex, then looted him fast.
Then I used a pot but my Last stand ran out, so I died because of the adds. I think if I had waited till Last Stand ran out and popped the pot right after that, I could've survived.

Hope it helps :)

If you use the orb right after another player has used it(not in your group) the quest wont complete. You will have to go back and kill Apex..

I soloed this as a 70 Enhancement Shaman. Dropped an Earth Elemental totem to do the tanking. Proceeded to DPS Apex, throwing the occasional heal on the Earth Elemental. I needed a mana pot but otherwise it was pretty easy.

I soloed it as a 70 holy priest, but it wasn't easy =P Main thing is to keep the little spawns feared as much as possible and make sure you have a dot on him at all times. DPS potions might have helped too.

Soloed as a 70 shadow priest. Had to use two +dmg trinkets and feared his crumblers off twice. Just throw on all DoTs and focus fire the crap out of him.

really easy to solo as 70 druid. Use cat form to do initial DPS, switch to bear and start mangle/maul/swipe/ demo shout. DONT use frenzied rejuv until you are at around 1/3 health. If you get really low, switch to caster, barkskin and use a regrowth or max rank HT.

perunaion의 댓글

I was able to kite him all the way back to Eco-Dome Midrealm, he is immune to roots. Just dot and run, dot and run. He moves pretty quickly given his size, so if you don't have (ghost/travel/cheetah/persuit of justice/etc) he might be more difficult to take this way.

Solo'd as a 70 Affliction Warlock. Send in VW, full dots, keep your instants in reserve till you pull aggro (and you will)...nuke away...(soul fire was actually useful)...shadow bolt, shadow bolt, shadow bolt...pull aggro...Sac the VW, refresh dots...use all your instants, AOE fear the adds...Drain Life till he's dead. Be sure to SS yourself, just in case his adds come back and you can't get away so that you don't have to corpse run.

Soloed as a 70 Ele Shaman, I am pretty sure that most classes should have a trick in their bag that will allow them to solo this guy.

For myself an Earth Elemental and Lightning Bolt Spam did the trick.

Soloed him as lvl 70 prot warrior. I have one epic and that's the Violet Signet. Easymode, i just sundered him to 5 stacks, then spammed shield slam and devastate and used trinket + shield block as often as possible. When he had 2 adds, i feared them and just kept hitting him.. had to use Last Stand and i died at adds, but at least i got him. ;) took like 5 min :P

Easily done as a 43/11/7 Paladin with about 600 Spelldmg. Judging Righteousness/Holy Shock/Consecration whenever they are up, then a Shield/Divine Favor heal when needed and he is no problem at all. The consecration takes care of the small adds.

Protection paladin can do this no problem. As the little elites spawn, its gets even better due to more Reckoning procs. Just alternate SoL/JoL and you'll be fine.

Easy as a hunter... just kite him over the bridge using serpent sting and arcane shot. over the bridge... round some stone circles and back over the bridge...

He's quite fast so use cheetah.

at 50% or so... call pet for some extra damage.

It can easily be kited as a hunter. Run arround in circles so he doesn't get too far away from his spawn and eventually evade.
I did it by the road just north of the bridge everyone is talking about. No mobs there! You can easily keep both Apex and the adds at a distance with aspect of the cheetah.
He's immune to concussive shot

I had a hard time as a 70 frost mage -- his first hit killed my ice barrier and he was immune to frost nova. Without being able to sheep or freeze down the adds, it was just too much of a beating to survive :(

41/0/20 arcane - frost mage, soloed. You're basically running the entire time poping everything you;ve got. I killed him with about 200 hp left and used a major health pop as well. As he gets smaller and divides he gets alot slower so it's easier to run and dps.

Do we really need so many "Solo'd this as..." replies? We get it, he can be solo'd, congratulations. Once you get the crystal you gotta go back down south to the tower and use it near the orb, which is at the top of the tower next to the Archmage. Tower is 58, 86.

70 Affliction/Demo Warlock

Siphon Life, Corruption, CoA, Immolate

I used Life Tap often while I kept my void up using Health Funnel (improved). When the small guys spawned, I drew aggro using DoT's and continued to reapply DoT's while Health Funneling the void.

Took a while, used 1 improved HS, but he went down.

had to use earth elemental, but he took agro of adds and Apex himself. I then just spammed lightning, but I went oom after i took him down, forcing me to run from the adds. Fairly easy, but slightly difficult.

rothbart의 댓글

He is IMMUNE to concussive shot, freezing trap, and wingclip. but, he's easy regardless. as a 70 marks/ survival hunter, i was able to mend pet and keep him near full even with an add on him, atleast one of the adds will surely aggro to you when mend pet ticks, but you just trap him and keep shooting, very easy at 70.

soloed him on my 70 sealed fate rogue. deadly poison on both weapons. i couldn't escape adds and i had no more pots. popped two 200 ap trinkets + SnD and bladeflurry. just got lucky with dodges after evasion faded... but the adds killed me. envenom really does it though, better than eviscerate when set up imo.

Hmm, i have the quest, i look for him, find him, kill him...BUT didn't get any crystal...?
Anyone else having this problem?

EDIT- Lol, my cousin was in a party with me and she most of switched us to raid, so that's why i didn't get the crystal.
She left while i was making another attempt of getting the crystal and it was only then that i saw the message of raid.

Did it as a lvl 70 prot warrior. I suggest you switch to def stance, when all 3 adds are there. For shieldblock and revenge will be up most of the time. Best thing is to wait, till all 3 adds are there and then pop intim shout. Just had to use a pot and ran after i killed and looted Apex.

madag의 댓글

Managed to solo as a 41/20/0 affliction lock. Started near the path at 51,67. Sent the void walker in, dot him up with UA, all instant dots, and spam a few shadowbolts. When the vw is about 50% or so health and starts to lsoe agro, run down the hill and tell the vw to follow. Keep the DoTs on him as you run. Whenever an instant DoT is up, recast. When he starts to hit on you, sac the vw for shield. Keep running, use Healthstone as you're soing so. Paused briefly to fast-summon another vw and sac'd again.

If you keep moving, the adds don't follow.

Just did this with my 70 Frost mage.
I made my Elemental attack Apex while I ran off to the side of him. By the time my Ele hit him I was far enough away to volley Agro between me and my Elemental. I had to eventually pop cold snap due to the little mini apex's spawn and then rinse repeat with the elemental volley. I used my elemental's distance nova to stop the mini Apex spawn.

Frost Nova does not work on Apex. It works on the crumblers he spawns.

Just solo'd as a 70 resto Shaman. My fire elemental basically kept the first add off me while I just dps'd him down, which would have been even faster if I were still elemental-spec. I did have to pull out all my good tricks--Mana Tide, Bloodlust, and Earth Shield, but nothing unusual. I had to do a big heal toward the end, but basically he wasn't too much of a problem. Not hard at all for me.

To all the people who think they are having trouble getting it to drop:

Make sure that you haven't killed Apex on an earlier occasion. The quest status will not change once you loot Apex's Crystal Focus. I forgot that I killed him and couldn't understand why the quest wasn't completed until I thoroughly went through my bags and found the drop.

solo'd this as an MM hunter. I can guess it wouldve been much easier as a BM hunter as i finished the fight with only 200 health left. just had pet engage Apex and DPSed im down. when he spawned his adds i just used traps to cc them and feigned death to lose them. Used no pots or bandages.

Solo'd him as a level 69 BM hunter. Was easy, but I must say, it would be easier, if you could pull him away from those warpstalkers, as they do aggro, and fighting 2 is worse than one. But nonetheless, solo'd him and got the orb.

I have to say this is the EASIEST quest i've ever done for killing an elite.

I soled him as a 69 enh shaman with crappy green gear. I have almost 6k hps and was never in danger of dying.

I used my earth elemental and only had to heal him once, altho i think he would of been fine without the heal.
He lasted until the last add was killed and I still had 1/2 my mana. =)

Solo'd as a 70 frost mage.
Had some problem with him since he's not getting slowed by frostbolts, he is also immun to frost nova and freeze (elementals "frost nova").
Had to pop some cd's, ice block, elemental, Icy veins and cold snap.
Abit hard, but still doable.

I soloed him as a 67 frost mage. I wear a lot of blues from random dungeons. I had the water elemental out and used mana shield. I hit him with frostfire bolt and when he came after me, I hit him with arcane blast then used blink to get as far from him as I could. I turned, hit him with arcane blast again and hit Mirror Image. The elemental and the images kept him busy but his adds started chasing me around. I was able to use frost nova on them and it became a waiting game staying away from the adds while my images and elemental pounded on Apex. I was able to throw an occasional ice lance at him and when he was dead, his two surviving adds killed me LOL. But not before I was able to run to Apex and collect the quest item. Not too terribly hard but not exactly easy either.

Really? Freakin' back and forth, back and forth, having to kill that Ar'kelos each time. What a pain quest! Each mob is not hard to defeat and each quest is not hard to complete, they are just time consuming and the whole thing loses it's thrill early on.

I also soloed this as a 67 balance druid. I waited at the end of the bridge until he was just in range and then hit him with Starsurge. Then I dropped the treants. By then he was in my face and I used Typhoon on him to knock him back. Then I did a lot of running while casting Moonfire on him and anything else that I could while the treants beat on him. I thought that I had failed since the adds can't be hibernated and I didn't have time to cast Hurricane and they killed me. When I got back to my corpse to rez, I saw Apex lying there dead so I got the quest item. Evidently, all of the Moonfire that I hit him with finally got him just as, or just before, I died.

Kicked his trash as a lvl 68 Prot Pally. Stood still with 10k armor, Divine Protection, BotK, and S o'Insight. Didn't heal once.

에이펙스 is located at 53:67
Take the crystal back to the top of the tower and use it by the orb behind 대마법사 바르고스

As of 03/26/2012:

I had a bit of trouble with this quest. I accepted and then logged off. I came back later to attempt the quest but did not receive the crystal after killing Apex.

I deleted the quest, re-accepted and it worked perfectly. I've submitted a screen shot for quest pick up and where to locate Apex.

So, accept the quest at the top of the tower, go kill Apex (Elite) and return to the top of the tower before logging off.

I hope you receive an achievement!

I solo'd Apex as a lvl 67 Death Knight. He wasn't to hard to beat, although he has several minions.

I can't believe no-one used the gatekeeper line :(

comments on this are entirely irrelevant to the quest. players are interested in mob locations, not at "oh i solo'd him at this level or that level"

Since most comments here are entirely irrelevant to his location. I'll post the area I found him at. 51.85/61.34, North of the bridge that is west of sunfury hold.

EDIT: for typos

You have to find Apex (에이펙스) in first place, kill him and loot the crystal.
Apex is a purple giant that rounds the zone btw manaforge coruu and manaforge duro. I found him at 51,67 or around 53,67
Check this map

Once you got the crystal, return to the questgiver, so Travel south, back to the Violet Tower, and enter it at coords 57,86
Go to the top of the tower and use the crystal near the orb that its at his back.

Done.
Have fun and upvote this comment with the arrows in the left if you find it useful

This quest chain starts with Ravandwyr. He is a blonde blood elf standing in front of a house between the south and the west entrances of Area 52.

Once the above is cleared, it unlocks this last part:

Apex is located at 53, 67. That is all.

Shadanah의 댓글

Others have added location data.

Leveling after 7.3.5 changes as a Fire Mage:

Burning him down is simple enough with procs and the void tendrils, but the multiple smaller versions broke down my shield. I also pulled an add, so you may want to clear the area.

The Important Thing: I cast Invisibility when Apex had broken into four or five parts because I was getting wrecked. I ran away (behind a stone pillar), ate some food, and found out that the adds had disappeared and I was able to loot Apex and complete the quest. I assume this would work with similar abilities.

You do NOT use Archmage Vargoth's Staff to summon Archmage Vargoth! He is INSIDE at the TOP of the Violet Tower.
I summoned Archmage Vargoth using the staff and he had no quest. He ONLY has the quest if you go inside to the top of the tower.

열쇠지기 찾기

에이펙스를 찾아서 에이펙스의 수정 초점을 입수하여 보랏빛 탑으로 돌아간 후, 대마법사 바르고스의 수정구슬 근처에서 에이펙스의 수정 초점을 사용하여 탑의 저주를 풀 수 있는 열쇠를 누가 가지고 있는지 알아내야 합니다.

	열쇠지기의 정체 (1)
	에이펙스의 수정 초점 (1)
	추천 플레이어 수: 2 (1)

서술

돌이켜 보면, 캘타스의 마법이 이 정도로 강력하리라 예상했어야 했는데 말이오. 그는 언제나 유능한 마법사였지만 탑을 공격할 때만큼 강력한 마법을 휘두르는 모습은 처음 보았소이다.

이곳에 구속되어 있기 때문에 수정점으로는 나를 묶은 저주를 유지하고 있는 힘을 알 수 없지만 당신은 수정점을 치는 데 방해받지 않는다오.

하지만 수정 초점이 필요할 것이오. 그런 수정을 가지고 다니는 에이펙스라는 거인이 있는데 듀로 마나괴철로의 서쪽에 있는 평원을 배회했었소이다. 그 수정 중의 하나를 사용하면 수정점을 칠 때 집중력이 강해질 것이니 그걸 가져오시오.
