You require 3 toons to request the task. There are see invis mobs so not easy to just run to the mob and kill it. With that said, did it today with a druid, shaman and bard. We cleared our way in with bard pulling and root rotted. Puled Gimblax with bard slow, and rooted it. Bard dotted til summoning started, to establish agro. Bard continued to dot and just move back when summoned. Druid focused on heals and shaman added slow and dots at a pace to let the bard maintain agro. Not a conventional way to kill but it worked well enough we will use that again. Took us about 3 hours from start to finish with a couple of restarts, as we were learning.

Do You have to kill a bunch of mobs to get to him or can invis to his spot and kill? I recently came back to game and are trying to catch up. Need to know if this is a quick kill mission, or a long crawl to Gimblax. Thanks.

Quickest mission to get faction imo. While you don't need to kill or so anything else in the mission, there are some see invis (all the casters in the zone). Depending on your class, you can run to gimblax, kill him and zone out though
Not lvl 75

Did this for guildies today he is in fact 73 was even con to me War
Trio'd
# Dec 03 2006 at 5:19 PM Rating: Decent
Just trio'd ol Gimblax.
71 Nec (me), 75 Mage and Cleric (cleric was blue to me but anon, so 68-70).

Mage used earth pet with all the trimmings and conviciton buff. I just used necro pet haste, protection of calliv and turned taunt off. Healed some, tossed maybe one or two dots. Cleric just healed the pet. Nuked when Gimblax started to enrage. He killed my pet a few times. Summoned another and thru him back in the fight. Lasted about 5 minutes or so.

BTW, Gimblax is not 75. He was blue to 75 mage and yellow to 71 necro. So more like 72/73 range.

Tanked him for the first time last night. I'm a 70 warrior buffed to 10k and 1700ac. Almost died right away as the healers were a bit slow on the uptake but popped defensive and made it ok. Defensive ended when he was about 30%. I was ready for his rampage/etc and when it hit I managed to pop my fortitude discipline, this saved my bacon. Without it I would have died as I sat at 11% health for about 3 seconds before the complete heal landed. After that we finished him off no problem.
We had better luck

Just goes to show how differently these things can go. We did it last night with a Druid as only healer but had

70 Pally, 70 zerker, 70 monk, 70 Chanter, 69 SK


Druid had to keep hopping to get the fast heals off and popped SotG once but no deaths.

Tankage
# Nov 21 2005 at 3:27 PM Rating: Decent
As a 9.5k/1700 tank my score is
gimblax 3 me 1

Had Cleric and Druid healing twice.
Finally won with Cleric and Shaman healing.

Of course lots of tanks have more hps/ac
but now you know what to expect.
Damage

Hits for 1240 max... Flurried 12 times before he finally dropped me when he was at about 20% Never rampaged once. Immune to stun, so as a paladin i could not stun lock him.

A guildie who needed mission to finish Tier one could not find a Tank so I volenteerd to Tank him ( Im 75 Cleric 11.6 k HP's 2.3k AC ) had 68 cleric in group healing , 68 druid , 75 zerker and a 68 chanter. Was hitting fast when we first engaged , but once slowed was NP. Max hit was 1155 but that was rare. He did flurry couple times and ramped at the end, but was no contest. BTW he is not immune to stun if you have a stun that works on mobs over lvl 70. Hope this helps

He hasn't any spell effects. Just rampage, flurry and summons.

BTW, the ranking as "Raid Encounter" doesn't really fit to him because you'll meet him during a group mission.
