ВНИМАНИЕ!

В дополнении Легион падающая с данного нпц Шляпа дона Карлоса будет в виде ИГРУШКИ !

P.s. вдруг что я добавил предмет,думаю люди понимают разницу что такое дополнение Легион и что такое пред-патч 7.0.3.

He pats between the bridge and tower near SS in the CoT instance Old Hillsbrad. He has a dog with him that can be cc'ed with hibernate, polly, ice trap, or anything else that effects beasts. His abilities include scatter shot, net, and charge. Was hitting me for about 1200-1500 in heroic and his dog is weak enough that you can ignore him until the end if you have a decent group. Be advised to pull him off the road so you don't accidentally pull the patting mobs if you use an aoe ability. He drops the quest item on heroic so there's no reason to attempt him on regular.

Комментарий от Brodaty

He drops Don Carlos' Hat if you are on the quest, the reward is Haliscan Brimmed Hat, to complete the mariachi outfit. Other parts of the outfit are crafted by tailoring proffesion. He drops also Don Carlos' Famous hat - 100% drop, but only when heroic.

edit:
There is a bug with saving to the heroic dungeon when killing Don Carlos, refer to below posts please.

I have some trouble to find him.

Just a bit of useless info, Don Carlos is the title figure of a very famous german play^^

Комментарий от Skorpion9x

Soloed him on both normal and heroic as a feral druid. The key to my success? I was in healing gear lol. Just kept myself alive with lifebloom, kept the dog hibernated, and slowly burned him down with moonfire. Heroic mode took two innervates and a mana pot. My healing gear is 4/8 t6 and various other epics ranging from karazhan through black temple. I also used my balance weapon/offhand instead of the healing one (hammer of judgement and the OH from nightbane). Was pretty easy, and took about 15-20 minutes. Oh, and stand at max range, because if you get close (within 25 yards I'm guessing) he'll spam scattershot on you.

Комментарий от 174220

Soloed as frost mage, sheep wolf pet. Kill him, had to use most of my cooldowns including cold snap to keep him from dropping me to 50%.

Комментарий от 55020

Solo'd heroic on Resto shaman with half kara/half pvp welfare. Didn't have to pot.

Don Carlos will scatter shot you if you get too close, and melee hard, and will also net you. His ranged hits for about 1k on mail, and the dog for about 500. I killed the dog first, as it has a pretty fast attack, and was giving me a lot of pushback. I stayed well back and threw lightning bolts when I had the mana, and let my searing totem do most of the work. Easy to outheal, just watch your mana.

Very fun running around in ghost wolf with my new pet.

Комментарий от 174243

Just killed him twice on Heroic with two people in Kara/S2 gear. I went in there thinking this would be suicide, but it was rather easy.

Me a Frost Mage and my friend Goldwings a Resto Shaman.

Kept the dog polymorphed the whole time while focusing on Don himself. His ranged attacks are pretty slow, and my healer kept me alive pretty easily. Just focused on burning him down fast. Was a fun boss to do, and having the hat be a %100 drop rate it's easy to outfit all your friends!

And me being a tailor I also picked up the tailoring patterns from the vendor at Steamweedle Port to make us matching suits!

The spirit wolf that spawns from the hat is pretty big, and simply massive if you throw a pet biscuit at it :D.

Комментарий от 174316

Soloed him in heroic mode earlier as a t6 resto druid. Took a long time, but it wasn't really hard in the least.

Thebearman, resto druid on Coilfang.

Комментарий от 174448

Amazingly easy duo fight for T6 Survival hunter, healed it from a second PC on a resto shaman took about 5 minutes each, got there hats and are both ready for a siesta...

I just threw on aspect of the monkey and had my shaman drop GoA and tanked the dog down then burned Don Carlos down was very easy.

Also Confirmation fought him twice back to back just by zoning switching to normal and back.

Комментарий от zalazour

Really easy boss. Soloed as SL/SL warlock with average pvp gear 14khp, 1.2k spell dmg ~10k mana.

Just fear the dog and keep pet focused on boss, dot up both dog and the boss. And drain. Use voidwalker to get the -10% dmg taken from physical.

I had my hp on 100% thru the encounter even I used felhunter. The key for warlocks is to Drain.

Комментарий от lapdragon

On heroic, it's a very simple fight once you figure it out - the trick is to not get within about 15 yards of him.

I did it with myself (70 feral druid) in my healing kit, and a shadow priest. I hibernated the dog, and we both stayed as far away from Don Santos as possible, I moonfired every once in a while and let the shadow priest do the work - I just healed us when we needed it and kept the dog asleep until the fight was over, then I tanked the dog and she healed me. We added another priest and a warlock to get their hats, and it just made it all that much easier. As long as you don't get close to him, he doesn't do very much to anybody - he prefers to shoot you at range from horseback, and if left to his own devices, will do so.

We tried doing the tank/spank thing a few times earlier in the day, but any time I got close enough to tank him, he'd just scattershot me and kill the DPS. I'd invariably end up outliving the DPS in my group, but without proper DPS he won't go down, and in bearmode I couldn't hibernate the dog to keep it out of the fight.

Комментарий от 162932

Soloed on a T6 Resto druid aslo. Very Easy fight....Long but easy. Roughly 12 min long for me. Went through 2 mana pots and 2 Innervates. Sleep the dog, keep your health above 50%. Cast Rejuvenation when needed. The ticks from Rejuvenation where keeping me alive in between his shots (roughly 1100/tick). The dog was slept the entire time and just spam wrath.

Dont know if this is a bug, but he doesnt seem to like when hunters summon thier pets, he will just attack them then kill your group so hunters beware..

Комментарий от Mzbehavin

I did this a with my lvl 70 lock and a Shadow priest (he healed lol), I kept the dog feared and put an infernal on don carlos...worked very well just had to keep the dog away and he is quite ealily killable,, on heroic mode he shoots you for around 2k plus a hit but if you get close to him he will hit you for around 3700 - 4k with his sword so be ware, he can also net you as well so you cannot move!! Dog can be slept to when fetched in a druid so make life very easy if you dont have to worry about the dog.

Same as hunter (speeddeath said) tho when got close the dog instantly went for the pet even though no combat was made.

Did this guy 3 times on heroic, by going out and changing the mode from heroic to normal and back again it resets Don carlos so you can kill him again, BUT you are saved to instance, if your only after the hat it doesnt really matter anyway you can all still get, it is 100 percent drop rate on heroic...have fun!!!

Комментарий от 174832

Might have just been a bug, but Don Carlos is possibly linked to the Epoch hunter and despawns when the Epoch Hunter is killed.

Комментарий от 57561

Solo'd comfortably as a holy priest. BT/MH standard healing gear. I kited him and the dog round and round one of the towers, getting line of sight with him only to place dots.

If you hug the very edge of the tower the dog has some pathing troubles and won't hit you so often.

Saved fears for when I was netted (unavoidable sometimes) just so that I would be safe from some of the damage and would be guarunteed not to get dazed.

Took maybe 15-20 minutes, including killing the dog at the end.

Комментарий от Zurtilik

There was and may still be a Blizzard Developer named Carlos Guerrero this is most likely a reference to him.

Комментарий от 11481

I soloed him on both normal and heroic as a decently geared balance druid. His pet wolf can be easily CC'ed (both hibernate and roots worked) and Don Carlos himself won't run up to attack you: he'll just shoot you with his bow and net you. He doesn't hit very hard at all on normal, and though he hit me for around 1600 (out of moonkin) on heroic, his attack speed is quite slow, and his damage can be easily healed through. Your only problem will be running out of mana.

Duoing this with a ranged dps-er and a healer would be extremely easy.

Комментарий от 176078

I soloed him today on heroic with my t4/t5/hyjal geared holy pally. Was pretty easy, just took about 33 minutes. I consecrated down the dog and then just holy shocked him to death. The 15 sec cd on holy shock didnt make the fight quick =(. After 7 mana pots and 33 minutes he went down and i had my hat though =).

Комментарий от 98874

Solo'd him in heroic as a Balance Druid in pretty lollable healing gear. Just kept a 3 stack of lifebloom on myself, kept the dog slept, and kept Insect Swarm on Carlos. Used 2 innervates, 4 Force of Natures, and a Mana Pot.

Комментарий от Jelvoden

Soloed him on heroic as a BM hunter, just kited him and the pet around the tower that they patrol by. Whenever I reached the ramp, I would wait for them and fire a shot off (attempting two shots usually got me netted). The rest I did with Immolation traps- if you drop them directly opposite the ramp, they cannot be set off by any of the guards (the workers are incapable of setting off traps, since they're green), and will hit either Carlos or the wolf on every lap. Placing the trap elsewhere occasionally had them path around it while chasing me. Build up some aggro, then stick your pet on the kill target, and forget it. The worst that should happen to it is it'll eat a net for you.

An important thing to note; while the wolf pet slowed when below 25%, Don Carlos suffered no noticeable speed reduction when low on health.

I killed the wolf first because it moves faster, despite Carlos having a mount.

Lastly, he failed to completely reset on a couple of my early attempts. When this happened, he and his pet would chase each other along a line, evading. To snap them out of it, use eyes of the beast and run your pet through them. They will aggro the pet and may be attacked normally from that point.

Just tried the reset thing today, but whatever we did, it seems that it's not working anymore. Tried resetting, switching from heroic to normal and back and even reformed the group. Nothing worked.

Комментарий от 176053

After finished a normal run and the final boss died ,we couldn't find this guy anywhere. Then we reset the dungeon ,this guy appeared....I don't know why, if we want to complete the quest ,we should kill him first before enter Durnholde?

Комментарий от Kathucka

Finished normal heroic run, and couldn't find him today.

Tried to reset him by switching to normal, then back to heroic. It worked. He was there.

Then, he reset on his own, with characters in the instance. We killed him twice and got two hats.

The dog is vulnerable to Scare Beast on heroic.

Комментарий от Kozz

Not sure if this is a bug or intended, but he despawned at some point while my group was doing the instance, we were on normal mode. A quick instance reset and he was on the road as usual.

Комментарий от 187719

Just duo'd with a holy priest / combat rogue at tier 4ish level, the trick was to keep Don Carlos attacking the priest using healing aggro as his melee swing was critting at about 8k, ouch.

edit: that's heroic difficulty ^

Комментарий от Shadowstabs

I (Combat Rogue) killed this guy on normal difficulty with 2 friends of mine, a Warlock and Mage. We discovered that whenever my warlock friend summoned his Voidwalker, it would immediately start attacking Don Carlos without command even though the pet was set to passive and Don Carlos himself is a neutral NPC. Has anyone else had this happen?

Комментарий от 202343

I have duo this encounter with my friend boomkin. I was destro lock at that time. we simply kept the Wolf hiberanated for the whole encounter while i was DPSing Don down, the boomkin was wearing resto gear and was healing me. NP

Комментарий от 201592

Soloable as frost mage, without using any health restores (i.e. potions) on Normal. Have not yet tried on Heroic.

You will need at least 9k hitpoints to pull this off solo, 10k preferably.

Have yourself fully buffed, with Ice Barrier up, before engaging. Ice Barrier must be completed it's cooldown when you engage; using it as soon as it is down will be imperative to your survival.

Begin the fight by polymorphing the wolf. Then, pop your water elemental and get him on Carlos. The idea here is to have your water elemental take a hit, or two, before you irrevocably grab aggro. Use Icy Veins within the first few seconds, and chain cast frostbolt.

As soon as Ice Barrier goes down, bring it back up. From now on, use it every single time the cooldown expires.

When Icy Veins expires, use cold snap and get it, and Ice Barrier, running again. If/when your water elemental expires/dies, get it back out.

If necessary, re-sheep his pet wolf. If you haven't killed Carlos, or at least dropped him to around 15%, by the time sheep breaks, you're probably not going to kill him.

You should be able to kill Carlos in under 60 seconds if you use all of your cooldowns like this.

Good luck, have fun, enjoy the hat.

Edit: This was at 70. Feel free to downrank, this is incredibly easy with everyone at 80 now.

Комментарий от Herman

Easy kill for a pvp-geared affliction-lock on both Normal and Heroic, just kite the wolf until death and then life-drain tank Don Carlos to death. Took me 5 Minutes and 2 potions on my first try ;)

Комментарий от 119078

This guy aggroed my pet when I dismounted. He's a yellow mob and didn't aggro to me but as soon as I called my pet out his pet and he started attacking.

Комментарий от 150475

His pet aggro'd my pet (like in so many other accounts) when I dismounted. People believed my pet (who was set on passive, like he is for every instance...ever.) aggro'd him, but that was pretty impossible. After reading up on this thread I think his pet is set to aggressive, but only aggros if you dismount within range.

Also, does anyone know if the Lordaeron Sentrys that walk by aggro if he's being attacked? We had a near miss today so I was wondering if they actually do.

Комментарий от Gwez

This guy is nice for trying your solo skills as a warlock.

You should be able to deal with him in normal mode with kara-like gear:
1) Send your voidwalker to Don Carlos for off-tanking
2) Fear and DoT his pet
3) Heal your voidwalker while keep killing his pet
4) At the time you kill his pet he'll probably kill yours
5) DoT + Drain Life abuse, since he shots quite slow
6) ?
7) Profit!

Have fun trying.

Sunwell geared feral druid.

Комментарий от 20299

Just solo'd as arms warrior (pvp spec and gear). Did not use any pots, only my pvp trinkets. Took out the dog fairly easy with retalliation + sweeping strikes + bladestorm. After dog went down and had Don Carlos at half health I switched to sword and shield and spammed revenge and heroic strike. Probably the only reason I beat him was because of second wind, but sword and board helped alot towards the end. Normal difficulty btw, I know I will get rocked on heroic.

Комментарий от thebum

If you're a resto druid he's quite easy to solo on heroic. Just kite him around the tower with moonfire and travel form. Took me 20 minutes.

Комментарий от PocketFox

As a level 80 BM hunter in almost all Northrend blues, I was able to solo this guy on heroic. It was a challenge (took two Bestial Wraths, a Heart of the Phoenix, multiple trap/fear rotations of the dog, and a mana pot), but I got him. It took three tries too, because the first two times I dismounted too close to him and got the bug where his pet aggroed immediately to mine.

Комментарий от 241540

Pretty easily solo'ed in heroic as an 80 frostfire spec mage.. (13.5k hp, 1140 spell power)

Key was to keep his pet sheeped the entire time, then just burn him down. I used a healing pot when I got low on health the first time. The the second time I popped mirror image (which pulls aggro to the 3 mirrors, each get 1 shotted) all the while i'm doing evocation to restore health and mana (possible with glyph of evocation)

Комментарий от georgemarvin

Soloed in normal mode with a level 70 holy paladin, normal blue and green gear except for gladiator's chest and shoulders. He has like 75k hit points; took about 5 minutes. Killed his wolf first, used Seal of Wisdom and Judgment of Wisdom the whole time to keep my mana up. Healed every time that I got down to 7k health because of the scattershot effect interrupting heals.

Комментарий от nepidae

Soloed on heroic with a lvl 80 holy priest in some naxx gear. Just kited him around and mana potioned when I got low. I kept fear up on the dog when I could.

Комментарий от Lidnillek

Solo'd on Heroic as a 75 Prot paladin, 19.7k armor, 16khp and 472 defence

I killed the dog first, then kept judgement and seal of wisdom up, healed whenever i got below 10k hp (usually right after he scatter shots, to avoid interrupt), i used divine plea whenever it was up, 1 health potion, used my bubble when the dog was still up to make sure it avoided the most damage (and it was up again before i finished don carlos), and i had to use lay on hands

Soloable on Heroic by an (skilled) Protection warrior 30k unbuffed. nuke the dog fast, nuke carlos, when he scattershot you, be fast on the chargeing. he is pretty tuff to solo but doable, just did it 2 minutes ago, and it was the last quest towards dinging loremaster of kalimdor.

Send the void offtank Don Carlos with CoW
Dot-Fear Guerrero and nuked it down fast while healing the void
When Don Carlos hit 50% life, burned him down and sacrificed the void at the end.
Used 1 healing pot, 1 healstone and Medallion of Heroism because he kept firing me with his scattering shot

Got my hat on the 2nd try

Комментарий от pacman90123

Soloed as a ret pally on heroic today, to any and all melee fighters, try and stay out of his melee range. I started the fight meleeing and he easily started ripping me apart. Your best bet is to use you highest hitting move with a range greater then melee. So for half of his hp i was just purely using judgement and healing. Hitting me for 2k - 2.5k in melee around 1k range. Hope this helps.

Soloed as a frost mage (level 80). I just popped an ice bubble and icy veins and then sheeped his dog. Attack the guy with frostbolts until he breaks your shield then turn on mirror images and heal if you want. I didn't heal the whole time. Once the mirrors are dead spawn your water elemental and go to town on him. The dog's polymorph lasted forever for me (I only had to restore it once). The only annoying part of this fight is his fear ability.

Комментарий от Maniaca

Regular- Soloed easily on an 80 affli lock with voidie- nuke and fear his pet, voidie tank Don Carlos while you take care of pet. Don't worry if you pull aggro- easy to stay healed up, just dot him up and keep voidie alive till his pet is dead then wipe the floor with him. Easy Peasy.

Solo Heroic as affli lock? Forget about it - fortunately all you need is regular to do the quest. Don't bother with an excellent chance of a repair bill when you don't have to.

Комментарий от Hawthorne

Soloed on Heroic as a level 80 prot warrior in mainly Naxx25 gear and a couple of lower level pieces. Not much to tell, really. Go for the wolf, kill it as soon as possible. Keep your Thunder Clap and Demoralizing Shout up at least on Guerrero (it will be very hard to debuff Don Carlos as long as you're focusing on fighting the wolf since he will run out and shoot at you a lot) and when you get disoriented, just wait it out. Once the pet is dead, it's just a matter of wearing Don Carlos down. Try to stay in melee range; with a prot warrior's defenses, his melee is just not that threatening. If you're a human you'll probably want to use Every Man For Himself at the first opportunity, because the fight may well go long enough for you to use it twice. Use your Enraged Regeneration when you get down to about half life, use your Shield Block whenever it's available, and blow Shield Wall if you have to. Typical prot warrior elite soloing methodology.

tl;dr: Prot warriors can get their Nice Hat solo without too much trouble.

As an 80 Hunter its really easy to solo Don Carlo even with no good gear. Just have your pet tank him and Herioc mode of this boss is simple.

Saw this NPC today though looking much older than the screenshot above, standing in the graveyard just outside of Gadgetzan in Tanaris. He wasn't able to be challenged but you could speak to him and he says, "Don't mind me. I'm just an old man waiting on an old...friend."

As for ease of solo comments above... I am one of the few BC players still running around playing my 70. It's basically the only way left to twink and get a BG queue because twink BG's are too scattered to get a group and reg "XP on" BG's have decent que times... so i keep my account BC and twink for AV.

That's not the main point though, what I'm posting for is that I think any 70 healer class should be able to very comfortably solo Don Carlos. I did it about 5 min's ago after reading all your posts, because i could not find him, lmao, (thanks for the posts on location). It was ultra basic strategy. I'm a 70 Holy Pally so my DPS sucks but:

Buff up with a 20 all stat cheap "guru elixer" couple gold ea

use "Superior wizard" oil on wep, maybe 3g ea

Add kings + Seal of wisdom (very important or he will run you out of mana and smoke you, i figure priests druids shammies have something similar)

some kinda food buff is good too.

Now its just AoE + only 3 of my ranged damage spells (schock/judge/exocism) and on every second rotation of that combo, do a holy light.

I never hit the dog once it just finally died from AoE and Carlos just drained down slowly till he dropped. I hit maybe 50% mana once but pretty much was endless.

Druids and such can slightly modify this and do fine im sure AT LVL 70.

I have o.k. gear mixed Kara/ZA/MgT/BG honor gear but far from the best for a BC player and no arena stuff

Don Calos seems like a nice old guy... go give him a beating :)

Edit: Welp, i just finished killing him for the 5th time on normal mode and still no blue hat for me... I don't have the herioc mode key so that may be important for you guys to get before you go farming this hat. Also, accidentally pulled two 65 elite patrol mobs from the tower, was able to hold on thru that 3-way attack and kill everything so I think that confirms, that healer classes should have this in the bag.

Just soloed him on my 69 unholy DK with 3 heirlooms.
Put on your frost presence, and first dps the dog down. Then focus on Don Carlos, and activate all your trinkets/buffs and stuff. Always cast Death Strike, to keep on healing yourself.
I used one healing potion on this fight

Комментарий от TriniKrusader

There I was, on level 79 - only nineteen experience points away from level 80. How would i get it? Would I finally explore my own home area of Eversong Woods? Complete some long forgotten level 10 quest? Or seek out some old, forgotten boss and test myself against his prowess?

It was then that I remembered. Remembered the mocking laughter of an old man near the Tanaris graveyard. Remembered the pitiful hat that burned a hole in the floor of my bank vault - a hat that should have been a token of pride, but had become a symbol of shame.

I couldn't take him down him alone back then. I had needed a whole entourage of friends. Even as the elderly Don Carlos slipped me the hat, he was grinning like a fiend. "You beat me. But you can't say you beat me at my full strength," his dazzling teeth seemed to say.

Thirteen levels later, the time had come - time for vindication.

This comment will seem obvious but it's quite important:

Don Carlos is a -hunter-.

Although he melees for an apocalytic 2000 damage on cloth -with- Demon Armor on, he shoots for significantly less - and he prefers to shoot than to melee.

If you're playing as a ranged class, once you take care of his pet and have some way to heal yourself, the best strategy is to keep him at range. As an affliction warlock, I managed to finish him off this way without using a healthstone on my second try, compared to my first try in which he cut me down in seconds. I believe priests, druids and any other spell power using class that can self-heal effectively will find this strategy helpful.

As for the end of my story - well, suffice it to say that I got him in two tries but embarrassingly enough, it never occurred to me that the coyote would ding me to 80 before he did. Nevertheless, the duel was finished and my honour was secured.

Happy hat hunting... Olé!

I have been farming Don Carlos for his hat now for 3 days. Killed him 5 times a day and the hat never dropped. Not sure if it is bugged from the recent new patch (3.3 fall of the Lich King). I've done it on normal only. Anybody know anything?

Комментарий от anathor

Tried to solo it yesterday in both heroic and normal as a moonkin with mostly normal and heroic dungeon gear (think mostly 200 blues).

In heroic Don Carlos hits like a truck, with 12k armor and 15k hp he downed me in 4 hits. He is not rootable. He also does a disorientating shot... that pretty much sums up my attempts in heroic mode :)

In normal he is more manageable. His add can be ignored (low damage compared to boss) and can be CCed (I can confirm roots work, didn't try Hibernate). Don Carlos still hits quite hard but is only lvl 68 with a lot less hp, DOT + wrath spam + barkskin + a healing pot and a couple of HOTs were enough.

I can also confirm that as of 8 March 2010 the quest hat drops in normal mode.

This guy is very solo-able for any healing class at lvl 75. I myself currently being a lvl 80 boomkin i run friends through for the hat almost every reset (sucks that heroic saves you tried switching to normal then back to heroic cause it was me and 2 other friends but didnt work) if u have any HoTs (heal over times) try to keep them rolling. Boomkins especialy should keep them rolling as we dont have the armor levels of Paladins or Warriors (ive seen Priests with more armor than me with their Inner Fire buff >.< even at lvl 75).

Here is what i did as a 76 when i first got the basic hat:

Finding him is probably the hardest part as above stated he patrols between the tower and bridge. dont bother with talking to the dragon and takeign his FP its a waste of your time, just ride out straight and u will come to the road he patrolls offto the rightt of the tower. if u have the patience u can wait for him or run down both ways and find him.

The Fight:

Right off ur goign to want to set any HoTs and buffs that u have and CC the pet as if left to his own devices he will bring you down as after about 2 mins he starts hitting harder (yes it took me about 2 mins to do it i was runnign a few blues and mostly greens) as soon as the wolf is CCd run off the road a ways (preventing pats from hitting u when u use a spell that inadvertantly hits them (such as Typhoon or Starfall). as soon as you are a ways off the road pop an AoE that u dont have to channel for (Palidians Concentration, Warriors Thunderstomp, Boomkins Starfall ((I dont play a Mage or Warlock currently so im not sure on ur non-channeled AoEs, same with Palidains and Warriors i playd them for maybe a week then fell in love with my Druid i only know what ive seen running countless dungeons))) and keep useing it every chance you get. as he is immune to root effects as well as blowbacks he will try to meele u down. if u have a spell that pops extra help (Force of Nature, or shammies their ele-wolves) use it as u will prolly only be able to use it once. DoT him up if u can and after that ur best bet is to try to keep him at range and hit him with fast cast spells or sweep by him and hit him with meele attacks but try to keep on the move as he will not be able to hit u with scatter shot as easy. this should bring him down, if not then let me know and ill see ifi can find a stratagey that will help u out better. hope this helps :-D

Normal version soloable by level 67 prot pally in 4.0.3, decently but not amazingly geared (note: not boasting, no I'm not special, this is just a description for this level).

You'll definitely want to pull him off the path as the fight's going to last a while and you don't want to involve any of the other patrolling mobs. Pulling for me involved tagging and kiting till he moved (and taking damage in the meantime) far enough off the path for consecration not to aggro anything on the path.

His dog has about 17k hp, and he has over 70k - kill the dog first; use holy power for heals and not Shield of Righteousness.

As of 4.0 Cataclysm patch, I believe Don Carlos no longer wanders Old Hillsbrad. I don't know if this is because Cataclysm or if it's a bug, but I searched high and low and never found him despite still having the quest. Exited the instance three times to look for him and each time turned up nothing.

Don took his hat and left!

Комментарий от 780966

I couldn't find him in the normal version of the instance...

Комментарий от 786355

Not contradicting - but I couldn't find the guy either - rode up and down the road for almost an hour. Maybe he's become a rare spawn since Cataclysm. My one experience isn't "Proof". I'm just saying that it's possible that he's bugged.

Also - does he Despawn if you've ran the whole instance? I had completed the instance on Heroic before I tried looking for him.

Комментарий от Stakiyah

EDIT: May no longer be accurate. Something else has gone wrong.

I can confirm, at least, that Don Carlos does still spawn when the instance starts... I had the quest still in my log, so I thought I'd go take a look at least... I went in for this purpose twice, once during patch 4.0.3 and once just today, during patch 4.0.6. I found him right away both times.

I can't speak to him despawning, I have never done the event in the same run as Don Carlos... most PUGs are focused on the main event only. Once when I looked for him after the dungeon was complete I couldn't find him, but at that time I'd never actually seen him before. He certainly isn't marked as a rare spawn. I have found him near the bridge both times, but Atlas also notes that he "wanders."

Soloed him in Normal as a 78 protection warrior, in wrath dungeon gear mostly, with Осадный щит жестокого гладиатора. Probably easier for a good wartank, but with my facerolling it was a pretty epic DPS race. Kept Rend on both him and his pet with Blood and Thunder, threw a cleave in every now and then, but otherwise ignored the pet. Scatter Shot was indeed a nuisance, but that's what Berserker Rage is for.

Don got me down to about 18% before dying (I did use one healing pot), and Герреро was still at 80%. He crumpled in two to three hits though. At the time I had about 21k max health thanks to the shield and a food buff. I clocked about 1100 DPS on Skada for the fight, entirely in Def stance.

Again, for a talented wartank, this should be a little more boring, that is, easier. There's no "I challenge you" dialogue or anything, as the quest text might suggest--just run up and start beating on the guy.

And, yes, the quest hat DID drop.

Комментарий от Asmaa

I'm trying to solo him, but everytime I engage him into combat after a while when he Scatter Shot me, he just resets, evades and goes back to walk around with his horse! I tried it 5 times already, with every Scatter Shot he just resets. Its frustrating :(

Soloed as a lvl 70 druid with the pvp gear, hibernate on the pet and lots of heals, doesn't take too long.

Комментарий от Falinadin

I just killed Don Carlos on my lvl 85 holy pally, and it was difficult at first due to him scatter shotting me and then resetting.
I ended up using a trinket that summoned an ally to my side, which kept him in combat until the scatter shot wore off. Hope this tip helps anyone else who is having this problem.

Комментарий от noggin

I got this on five of my 85's yesterday. For four of them, it dropped the first time. It wasn't on his corpse three times in a row for my mage, so I dual boxed my druid and went in with him first and it dropped right away. I'm guessing it has something do with my mage being the only one of my toons ever to actually run the instance and do the quests back in BC, but that's purely speculation. He was there and dropped the hat the first time on four characters that had never been inside that instance and definitely didn't have any quests in any related chains. He's just always there on heroic mode. I didn't get saved, or even a message about being saved to the instance on any of my alts, and I was able to reset the instance and quickly try again on my mage.

One note on his path. Don Carlos' actual path is on the road directly ahead of you as you come out of the cave. If you mount up immediately after entering the instance and ride directly out of the cave and to the road, he's always right there, headed East very slowly.

My first run was on my tankadin and I tried to burn Don Carlos first. I kept getting stunned and he reset to full health. Then I killed the dog first (only 30k health) and the stunning stopped. Repeated killing the dog first on my alts.

Mixed this with the Куртка Халискана, Кюлоты Халискана, Парадные ботинки, riding my Черный волк or a horse from a Коновязь боевого отряда. Hanging out in Orgrimmar, dual boxing my Tauren pally with a Пир для великанов buff and my Goblin hunter with a Пир для карликов buff and a similar hunter wolf pet. I'll be working on getting a Щенок ворга on all my toons that have a Don Carlos' Famous Hat to finish it off. Several people saw me in Org hanging out and either donned their outfits or asked me where to get it and showed up a bit later with it.

Alliance who get this, you might check out the Кель'дорайский скакун for the closest looking horse I could find, except for the unicorn horn. Otherwise, it's very similar to Don Carlos' horse, although any of the basic, non-armored alliance horses would work great with this outfit.

I can confirm that I just ran this in heroic, solo, and went looking for Don AFTER finishing the last boss, and he was nowhere to be found. :(

Комментарий от mist3h

I just killed Don Carlos in Old Hillsbrad hc, but last week when I cleared the place, he was no where to be found either. After checking wowhead I kind of gave up, but I still needed to go back for reputation, so I decided to try a different approach tonight.
The only difference is that this week I took the dragon as usual and then I rode down the road towards his 'spawn point' at the tower and there he was standing still without his wolf pet :)

Комментарий от Sykoo

4.2.2 He is still here. Found him just past the bridge. His pet came up and reset the fight so if you solo and your lower level make sure you kill the pet first to make it easier.

Комментарий от 709538

he is now not hostile he is yellow and using a desiorient shot that make you leave combat and let him heal full

u must burst all is life in 2 or 3 spell max and even he now only droping some silvers didnt get anything else from him then that after 5 loot

Комментарий от Afflictzia

I have killed Don twice, one as an ally pally, and one as a cow druid, both hc's and both dropped the hat, now i wont say that the droprate is 100%, but for me atleast it seems it is.

edit: ok now ive tried killing again on druid and he dropped the hat again, i really do think its a 100% drop on heroic

Комментарий от 856492

are you able to bring a low lvl character and let them get the hat?

I reset the instance after I finished it on Heroic and Don Carlos was up to kill.

Death is merely a setback!

Комментарий от 878376

So just to confirm Don Carlos respawn on soft reset of the heroic mode.

Checked it my self (got two Don Carlos' Famous Hats in the process) while i was farming Durnholde Rifleman for Pattern: Stylin' Adventure Hat.

just solo'd this guy as a 67 lvl blood death knight i just popped all my CD's killed him and died by his wolf then ran in and loot him
profit:?

Комментарий от MentholX

To those who cannot find him:

Kill the first boss, but do not go to Thrall. Go out and follow the road towards the exit of the instance. He will be on the road. You won't find him after you clear the instance.

Комментарий от 921728

After reading most of the comments here and farming OHF and BM for Keepers of Time rep and the Pattern: Stylin' Adventure Hat (taking my leatherworker along - nope it will not drop unless you have an LW in the party), well I noticed some things about Senior Juan Carlos:

1) If you do the instance before killing Juan, he disappears right after killing the 2nd boss (Captain Sarloc - ie, after you free Thrall). This I watched as a fellow guildy took down Sarloc and I watched Juan ... just vanish into the ether before my eyes. I think the reason Juan exits is because Thrall will be on the road and Juan is after all Alliance (I think).

2) It has been said Juan dies at the hands of the Lordaeron guards patrolling the roads. Never saw this, before downing bosses, during or after, and I looked for it, they are both neutral to me and each other, and never attacked Juan, passing between them without incident.

3) Exiting the instance, while still in heroic, and then going back in about 15 min, Senior Carlos is back and on his track between the bridge and the Southshore crossroads. So if you cleared the instance without killing Juan Carlos first, just wait a few minutes and go back in - he'll be there.

4) Now, I do not know if the instance has been nerfed but the uncommon Don Carlos' Hat never dropped after a couple of weeks farming this instance, nor did the pattern :(. Curse of the RNG maybe.

Oh and btw, for those farming the pattern, yes the riflemen do respawn (you probably already knew that in general, perhaps) even if the bosses do not. Happy farming.

I just solo'd this guy on my 66 Mistweaver Monk. The trick was to keep using Paralysis on his wolf, then pulling him back a bit so my Spinning Crane Kick for occasional heals wouldn't un-stun it. The fight took forever but ended with me low on health and out of mana, Touch of Deathing Carlos and then running out of the instance to escape the wolf.

Комментарий от 1072822

You can see him at the fork in the road by the tower. that's where i killed him, and his stupid coyote friend whose not so stupid when he's your friend when i have the hat.

THE INSTANCE IN CAVERNS OF TIME IS CALLED ESCAPE FROM DURNHOLDE (go west)

I wasted a LOT of time on two toons trying to figure this out, after going to Old Hillsbrad and not finding him, than checking ALL the entrances in CoT

btw his pet "Guerrero" is named after another seer of Don Juan's party for those who haven't read Carlos Castaneda's (Carlos César Salvador Aranha Castañeda) books

Soloable as a 68 destro lock with void walker, keep the wolf feared until Don is taken care of.

Комментарий от circa1986

I completed the quests and completed the dungeon on my 78 Holy Priest. To find Don Carlos, I exited the dungeon, and reset all instances. I went back in, and Don Carlos was straight ahead on the road.

Комментарий от Oznerolt

To those of you who are wondering if killing him saves you to the instance: The answer is yes. I didn't think it would, consider he respawns after soft resets, but.. I was wrong. Wasted my day of farming KoT rep.

Комментарий от Musician2111

If you are doing the quest Nice Hat... from Tanaris, your group needs to find and kill Carlos before you do any of the regular instance quests and boss kills. Carlos will despawn if you wait until after the Thrall sequence.

Комментарий от Koolaider

Just in case you're hunting for the toy, you can just leg it over to the area where he patrols and kill him without engaging any of the bosses in the instance.

Комментарий от ladyfwap

Went in on Heroic, Found Don Carlos down the road from the bridge, booped him and got the hat. Easy peasy.

Комментарий от addmydataz

Couple of points for anyone going after Don Carlos for the or the Hat Toy.

1. If you kill him in Old Hillsbrad Normal, you ***can*** Reset the instance. If you kill him on Heroic, you will be Saved to the Instance and have to wait to kill him again until your Instance Lockout expires.

2. He patrols on the road in the middle of Old Hillsbrad, between the bridge over the river and the Signpost for Southshore.

3. He should drop the Quest hat first try, as he did for me. He's a solid fight even for level 90, so keep an eye on your health. His Coyote is a pest even for a Tank.

4. The Hat Toy appears to only drop in Heroic Mode.

5. The Patrollers on the road and Don Carlos himself are Neutral and will not engage each other or you unless attacked. A good idea would be to wait for the Patrollers to pass out of range, or pull Don off the road, to avoid the Patrollers joining the fight.

6. Use your mount to run to him, not the Dragon.

Комментарий от biggaz13

Still works 8.3
Easily one shot (him and his pet)
He was just sitting on his horse by the end of the only bridge on the map
The actual Instance is called 'The Escape from Durnholde' via 'Caverns of Time'.
Heroic indeed

Комментарий от shaularian

I followed the advice from others and found him on the road between the tower and the river bridge. I made a macro: "/tar Don", put on a button and mashed it while searching.

Also following others' advice, as a Druid, I entangled the pet and Wrathed repeatedly (level 20, SLands), re-entangling the pet periodically and healing when I got down to 60% or so. After he fell, I looted then Wrathed the pet until Entangled ended, took Cat Form, attacked until 50%, then Entangled backed off, healed, repeated. Kept Moonfire active all the time while Wrathing.

Don is an 8k+ elite, I soloed with 1628 health on Normal.

Комментарий от Fortex

Don't need to kill any bosses. Just make a premade group - enter the dungeon - as soon as you enter leave the party not delist the premade group - run to him at the crossroads and kill him. Happy farming.

Комментарий от Wizardling

Well, as far as I can tell if you make the mistake of finishing the instance objectives on heroic, Don Carlos permanently (till the server reset, anyway) despawns in heroic mode even if you exit and reset. Whole day blown… :-(

Комментарий от Tiefflieger

He patrols the road between these two points: https://www.wowhead.com/maps?data=2367:489596353557
Kill him before killing any boss or he will despawn.
