Skar'this is only found on heroic mode of Slave Pens, shortly after the first boss. When you jump down into the pool of water and come out, he is on the left hand side in a cage.

It is possible for rogues or druids to solo stealth to him to pick up or turn in the quest, but it requires the use of vanish and a couple of limited invulnerability pots to live past the guards who can see through stealth.

The Cudgel of Kar'desh is shareable, but is a followup from a quest that requires simply talking to Skar'this, so everyone will need to make it to him to pick up the quest in the first place.

I tried to solo this as a druid, with a Soulstone from a Warlock. I did get past the first two guards by running a bit past them, dying and ressing, but couldn't get past the second ones. I didn't have any Limited Invulnerability potions though, so it should be possible to solo as a druid.

Without Soulstone Resurrection I can't see any druid solo this. Limited Invulnerability potions have way too short duration and got 2 minutes cooldown.

pool of water? What the hell are you guys talking about? there's more than 1...

Комментарий от Camis

I'll try to do my best to clarify *excactly* where he is.

After you've beaten that first boss, you go up the ramp, killing those annoying pats. The ramp splits into two paths (both of which lead to the same place) and eventually drops you down into a big pool of water.

Once you've dropped down into the water, you'll be facing a ramp that goes up (with a patrol on it) and two additional patrols (one to the left of said ramp and one to the right). Ignoring arguements on which pulls you do and don't have to do, our guy is over to the far left. Near the hallway that goes out towards the second boss, is our man.

Camis's directions were really great. I got into a saved instance, took of all my gear so I dont lose durability, followed his directions, died once as I was running to the hallway, but I had a soulstone up and used it, and got the quest :)

I would like clarification on whether or not this is still soloable by stealth. from what I can gather, it previously took a vanish and some limited invulnerability potions to make it past the mobs that detect stealth, however with the patch limited invulnerability no longer provide invulnerability, thus prompting my question.

Tried it in 2.1, the truesight guards didn't seem to reset when i vanished.

As of 2.1, I am confirming that Rogues are able to stealth to this NPC.

However, it will require the use of Vanish, Sprint, Evasion, and a heck of a lot of Distract. Before you get to a Truesight guard, hit Evasion and Sprint, and then rush past them, hoping that they don't hit you. Keep running away until you're relatively far from them, hit Vanish, and the NPCs will return back to where they were.

It took me approximately 15 minutes to do; most of it was due to cooldowns.

I just tested this and stealthed by all the mobs in the instance to get to the end boss. I would agree that it would be tougher for a druid and I would definetly recommend bringing a skilled rogue friend.

The method I used for getting past the see invis guards was simply pop Sprint and run through one guard, he only gets off one hit for about 5k, then vanish when a good distance from him. Really the only abilities you need for this as a rogue are Distract, Sprint and Vanish.

Anywho thats just my 2cp hope it helped a bit.

i've done it in solo with my hunter 70 without any pot just need feign death

Okay, I soloed it as a Frost Mage. Here's the run down:

Dodge the patrolling crusteaceans at the entrance. There's a safe spot on the left past them.

From there, there's a passage that you have to go down, and there's a dual pat that patrolls it. There's a few ways to do this. 1) I found a youtube of an undead mage (under SSC attunement) climbing the cliffs on the right, behind the slaves, then using that height advantage to jump over them as they were closer to the entrance. 2) Once, I successfully went around the right side, then sneaked (blinked) past them while they were at their closest point to the entrance. Only once though. I died other times I tried. 3) Usually, I just used an invisibility to get through. (it wasn't worth my time with my failure rate.

From there the cavern opens up. There's a group on the right that is easily avoidable, and another group past them on the right. On the left is one red mob that moves around and is easily avoidable, but there's a pat that runs right down the middle. It's best to dodge the rest of the mobs when the pat comes forward and then moves to the left.

After that, it's mostly a straight shot to the water in the middle of the instance. I wait there for about 3.5 minutes for my invisibilitiy to come back.

Summon the water elemental, make sure he gets aggro on both of the truesight guards. As soon as it's got aggro run up the ramp, turn the corner, blink to get some distance, then cast invisibility. The elemental will be dead, but if you're far enough away, it'll dump you from combat. (also, vanish works here, but only if you're out of aggro range of the truesight guards)

You'll get invisible at about the end of the hall. Make a right, and quickly go up the ramp. At the top of the ramp, you'll have to choose to go right or left. You want to be at the second rung up the ramp when you turn visible. There's a pat that patrols that section, you have to hope he isn't there, or you start over.

Then you have to wait while your invisibility cooldown is done, but there's two pat groups covering each ramp, there isn't a safe place to stand for the duration, but because the pats don't overlap, you can move to adjust.

When invisibility cooldown is up, follow the mobs to the top of the ramp.
1) If the truesight guards patrolling the top of the bridge aren't very close to the near ramps, the timing is wrong, and they'll kill you, so best to let the patrol do another run. go back to the bottom of the ramp, and wait till they get to the top again
2) If the truesight guards patrolling the top of the bridge are very close to the other pat, then go!

Pull out the elemental, tell him to attack one of the nearer pats, then step behind him. This will ensure that they both have aggro on the elemental. When both have moved to attack him, run past them, frost novaing them to keep them away from you. By this time the guards have moved past the front section, pop slow fall, and jump off the bridge to the left. Once you're free of anyone being able to attack you (on your way falling down), pop invisibility. When you hit the ground, Make a right, and stop in the hallway (past where the guards would be). Then dodge the last pat to talk to Skar'this!

I was messing around with different ways of getting to Skar when I decided to try to Shadowstep up to Rokmar from the water below. Turns out it worked and I was able to stealth down through the hallway right to Skar and finish the quest. No vanishes or pots needed!

How to Solo as a Rogue using NO POTIONS IN UNDER 5 MINS!

1) Spec Shs
2) Enter the instance, go straight across the water below where that lobster boss patrols.
3) When he pats back, Shs up to one of the smaller lobster men.(If you aggro just vanish)
4) Proceed to the right(Not towards all the Naga in the open cave area, go into the tunnel guarded by two Nagas)
5) Once you exit the tunnel he should be directly to your left. Turn in and spend that gold respeccing back to combat...

I did this using no cooldowns, you can blow sprint if you want just to run faster, but there is no essential use. If you're not Shs, dont bother using this method. The turn in isn't worth the money to respec.

Here's an interesting fact.

You cannot talk to Skar'this if you are a Draenei and have consumed a Winterfall Firewater. The size increase means you cannot get close enough to him to speak with him.

This guy's information helped other Heretic Naga gain the foothold to summon Lord Ahune within the Slave Pens, as revealed in the quest "An Innocent Disguise" :)

do you think its worth to do the quest even though its not required anymore to do to enter ssc?

Комментарий от Valdan

To speak to this npc and pick up his quest do the following below:

Ok folks.. Let me bring some reality checks for everyone who takes this quest truly understands the lore/insight on how truly long it is and how the "Entire" chain begins and ends. I noticed the link and some though GREAT input on the chains but there not the entire chains accordingly. They leave out where its supposed to be picked up, and in truth most of the time you "cannot" pick up the quest due to not doing the prior quest chains so if your on this quest below is what you may want to do or of course quit at any moment. But the story doesn't end here clearly.

Quest chain 1 (8 Parts) : (this one of course)
Horde: The Hand of Gul'dan
Alliance: The Hand of Gul'dan
Enraged Spirits of Fire and Earth
Enraged Spirits of Water
Enraged Spirits of Air
Oronok Torn-heart
I Was A Lot Of Things...
A Lesson Learned
The Cipher of Damnation - Truth and History

Then as mentioned before there are the 3 quest in any order but MUST be completed in order to proceed to the next chain

- These are the Fragment of Damnation Quest Series (3 Parts Totalling 16 Quest + 1 Final but not end of Chain = 17 Quest in all):
(Part 1)
Grom'tor, Son of Oronok
The Cipher of Damnation - Grom'tor's Charge
The Cipher of Damnation - The First Fragment Recovered
(Part 2)
Ar'tor, Son of Oronok
Demonic Crystal Prisons
- The NPC ghost will appear - The chain continues:
Lohn'goron, Bow of the Torn-heart
The Cipher of Damnation - Ar'tor's Charge
The Cipher of Damnation - The Second Fragment Recovered
(Part 3)
Borak, Son of Oronok
Of Thistleheads and Eggs...
The Bundle of Bloodthistle
To Catch A Thistlehead
The Shadowmoon Shuffle
What Illidan Wants, Illidan Gets...
The Cipher of Damnation - Borak's Charge
The Cipher of Damnation - The Third Fragment Recovered

Now mind you "MUST" complete the above 3 Parts & also turn them into Oronok before carrying forward.

1 Quest
The Cipher of Damnation

Now also as mentioned before you will get a letter in the mail from
Khadgar to go to Shattrath and speak with A'Dal.

This has unlocked your future chains not mentioned linking them together is what I think people should understand the can of worms your about to open:

(4 Part Chain)
4 Trials total however only 3 can be accepted at first. They are 3 seperate quest given all at once so you can carry all 3 and complete and run back to turn in all together. The 4th is after the original 3 are completed.
The first 3 are:
Trial of the Naaru: Tenacity (HEROIC MODE) - Arcatraz of Tempest Keep. - Note: Here your saving the mage who will be friendly but you kill this boss: Harbinger Skyriss
Trial of the Naaru: Strength (HEROIC MODE) - Warlord Kalithresh (Steamvault) & Murmur (Shadow Labyrinth) in any order but both in Heroic Modes.
Trial of the Naaru: Mercy (HEROIC MODE) - Shattered Hand Executioner (Shattered Halls of Hellfire Citadel)

Now before we get to the fourth part do note after completing the initial 3 there is a mini chain the unlocks and continues on. You can have both the 4th trial and this chain at the same time:

Trial of the Naaru: Magtheridon (Raid) - Magtheridon

(2 Part Chain)
The Mark of Vashj - You talk to: Skar'this the Heretic (He is only found in Heroic Mode and is after the first boss) in The Slave Pens (Heroic Mode)
The Cudgel of Kar'desh
- Gruul the Dragonkiller (Gruul's Lair) & Nightbane (Karazhan)
Do note they can be completed in any order for the 2 dungeons on the last part of this quest chain.

That is all folks.

Quest Grand Total: 31
Heroic Dungeons: 5 (Slave Pens twice so technically 6)
Gold rewards/Items/Reputation and Experience gained I didn't do the math on sorry.
Normal Difficulty Dungeons: 0

Now there is a much longer chain in Ironforge but we wont go there.

Edited for spelling issues

Has he been removed?

Went to hand in my quest today and he wasn't there, just a group of mobs. Was in heroic mode, but no Skar'this and no cage.

Комментарий от 532522

Im rogue 80 lvl.. I found Skar'this the Heretic... but he dont give quest.

Комментарий от 269735

Good going, guys - he's coming back as a boss to kick our faces in because you all just had to go to Serpentshrine, didn't you? Just another little piece of havoc caused by Azeroth's 'heroes'!

(he seems to be related to the upcoming Cataclysm lead-in events, currently on the PTR somewhere)

Комментарий от Obolon

Maybe I am missing something. As of 4.0.3a I don't see a quest from this guy. He's there, but no quest. No, I haven't done it before.

Комментарий от 716770

The statement above says... sigh i wont be able to get my Lurker fishing at SSC since I cannot enter it.

"The SSC attunement quests offered by Skar'this the Heretic are no longer available to players above level 70."

Комментарий от BrilliantEvil

I tried picking up the quest as an 85 but was unable to, after speaking to a GM I was told it was a phasing issue, one he was easily able to fix.

Комментарий от milotic

level 70 req was removed in shadowlands can do the quest now

Комментарий от Lavabo

For all the quest completionist out there, You can still do this quest. I am max level and entered the Slave Pen on heroic. Prior of doing the pre-requisit quest in the area I was able to see the quest pop up once I had entered the dungeon on heroic.
