For grampy Gygax!

This is the only Rare I have, next to the 9 greens. I see my guildies one after another scoring Epic buddies... Really, why is that rng for me so bad on my main. An alt has now 3 followers, and all are rare. I feel nerved on my main :(

Commento di Grogal

I got this follower in Epic Quality? ( Not trough leveling past Rare )
How is that possible?
Does every follower have a chance to be granted in a higher quality?

Commento di Yutto

Stats at 100:

97,854 HP
Singletarget DPS is around 3k, although his use of Morte e Distruzione will naturally increase his DPS against groups.
Has reasonable base armour, although his rather low HP does mean you have to keep an eye on him.

Overall a good AoE melee bodyguard, this guy would probably be well suited for teaming up with players who are tanks, just to keep mobs away from him while his Morte e Distruzione helps drops groups.

Level 3: Death Gate

Commento di Araxu

Has anybody else noticed that Delvar.. Sounds like a human instead of a dwarf? *Headtilt* Kinda strange. I'm fairly certain that they recycled some previous human Death Knight NPC's quotes and slapped them onto this poor fella.

Commento di DG2020

I think it would have been more fitting to give this guy the same voice as Thane Korth'azz from Naxxramas instead of the stock Human Death Knight quotes.
I'd love it if I was out on the field with him as my bodyguard and he yells "Shut yer flytrap before I shut it for ye'!" at the mobs we were attacking.

Not sure if if Blizzard patched this or because I got him to bodyguard rank 3, but I have noticed that Delvar is now wearing the DK tier 17 set and his voice emotes have been changed to the dwarf ones. While I'd love to have him sound like Thane Korth'azz, it's certainly an improvement over the human DK sounds.

I spotted Delvar idling about in my garrison and spoke to him and he still had the human DK voice on top of wearing his tier 10 DK armor.
It seems like he only has the Dwarf sounds and tier 17 armor set when he's following you as a level 3 bodyguard.

Commento di Tesselleta

Delvar doesn't counter massive strike on a mission, is he too low at 91 for that ability to work?

Commento di paul28808

All Horde-only bodyguards are DPS and all Alliance-only bodyguards are tanks. Seems a bit unfair for both of them

Commento di Glandur

Tired of getting the chat box when you accidentally click the bodyguard ?
I made an addon called Bodyguard Away which disables that very chat box.
Press CTRL to get the chat box anyway, in case you need to send them home/interact with them.

Commento di 1144631

the best place to farm rep of your bodyguards is at (58,43) in Spries of Arak, there are many "wasps" with low health and high respawn rate, just keep on AOEing you will get full reputation with your bodyguard within 1 hr

How is it that no one's mentioned the reference to the creator of Dungeons and Dragons and his Teeth of Delvar Nar?

As I level all my toons through WoD I am finding Defender Illona to be a much better tank that Delvar. Perhaps Delvar is better for groups but single targets stick to Illona like glue.

For an even smoother bodyguard experience get Glandur's addon that was linked above. It greatly decreases chat box irritation.

Commento di TheDash

What is the name of the gear set he wears at Level 3 Bodyguard? I want to be twinsies with him and start our own little Death Knight underground band.

Commento di Willowwhisp

I have had a terrible time with Delvar as bg for my mage while hunting in Nagrand. All she needs is a wee bit of tanking to keep damage from getting out of hand on the level 100 elite clefhoofs and riverbeasts. Each time, Delvar not only dies on the first trap, but prevents the beast from going into the trap. I have to run into the snout and kite it away from him and he dies anyway. The druid Leorajh is much better for hunting (even though she has 615 gear to his 650).

Commento di IMissThottbot

Death Knights: Delvar Ironfist does NOT count as Undead, so you cannot heal him with Death Coils.

If you're having trouble with him keeping HP up in Nagrand, while using the talbuk--dismount, fight a bit, he'll heal up between fights.

Commento di 1195679

what is his weapon his 2 h axe looks cool

Commento di Tribunal

I've found Delvar very.... deficient as a tank. He really needs a taunt to be considered a Blood DK.

I figured he'd be nice for my Boomkin, but looks like I need to go get her defender Ilona :c

I have decided to do inside test of all my Garrison Followers how much DPS they can pull against Training Dummies.

I did this to find out which Follower is the best to take on a patrol during Garrison Invasion content.
Each test took 1 minute.
I'm not testing bodyguards here.

After few hours of "training" it turnd out that the winner is… Leeroy!
He does some sick dps (also aoe) and even sicker healing. That makes him King of Garrison Invasion companion.
Tho Aeda Brightdawn does more dps, she doesnt heal and she tends to die during invasion.

Honorable mentions are:
1. Aeda Brightdawn - for best dps.
2. Harrison Jones - for most bizzare style.
3. Choluna - good single target dps.
4. Garona Halforcen - good single target dps.
5. Vivianne - good aoe.

Below You can see test results for all my active Followers.
As you can see Followers' iLvl scales with their DPS (Leeroy is an example here).
I will be adding new followers as soon, as I'll test them.

Just a small note, his Scudo d'Ossa can protect the player if near death.

Commento di designadrug

Compared to Defender llona... Delvar is very squishy and cannot hold aggro very well. I think I have figured it out. He may be a Blood DK but he is in Unholy presence!
Makes perfect sense now.

Commento di 1308119

For some reason, at rank 3, he has no weapon, odd indeed

Commento di Felfaadaern

Has the great advantage of coming pre-miniaturized! Much more convenient than so many of the screen-blocking body guards. :D

Commento di sanesyco

TO get this follower (or ANY bodyguard) rep to wingman in 20 minutes per bodyguard do the following.

1. While in Gorgrond pick up the quest you get from Cutter in Moria's Bastion (around 47. 93.) called Iyu.
2.DO NOT COMPLETE the quest!
3. As you are walking out of the cave tons of iyun pustules will spawn they have 8090hp
4. KILL KILL KILL the little guys.
5.Once rep is bodyguard abandon the quest to pick pick back up for your next bodyguard.
6.Enjoy

Note:If you have completed all 4 chapters in Gorgrond this will not work. You must be able to pick up the quest.
Takes about 20 minutes per bodyguard.
If they stop spawning just abandon the quest and go back down and pick it back up.

Commento di flyboy463

He creates a Death Gate if you feign death as a hunter, takes you back to your garrison.

Commento di cautious

Whenever I use my Gnomish Cloaking Device, Delvar seems to think I am near death and casts his Bone Shield on me. Most peculiar!

Reputation Grinding
The best comment ive seen for this was by sanesyco; about using the part of the Gorgrond quest chain Iyu to grind rep. There is a constant spawn of Iyun Pustules that you can grind rep to MAX in under 20min.

For those who maybe completed the quest chain already, I wanted to mention two spots I used to grind.

To Check:
/script print(IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(35510))

The main, active grind spot I'd use was in Shattrath || There are lots of spots with clusters of enemies. I'd pick my favorite 2-3 spots and just make rounds. The respawn is quick enough that there isn't any downtime. This place is great for Alliance too if you wanted to grind Protettori Sha'tari rep.
- The Fel Sparks around are in clusters of 3 and plentiful.
- Shattrath City Center and the enemies across the bridge south is another nice spot.
- There are rares all around the zone that you can loot daily. They give normal kill rep for your follower, but extra Sha'tari rep.
- Sha'tari Market District (Base of elevator) | This spot is nice because there are waves of spawns every ~5 seconds, no loot though.

*Took about 3 hours of grinding on my Alliance warrior to reach MAX follower rep. Made a fair amount of gold too from normal drops as well as vendoring rare mob drops.

The only other place I thought i'd mention that is ok for active grinding, but allows for a passive grind is in Valle di Torvaluna, Gloomshade Grove.
Lots of clusters of the little guys there, respawn time is about 50 seconds.
The passive grind i've done is in the cave and takes about 8 hours to MAX rep. I stand at about between two of the poison bulbs (out of range of their gas), and behind the rare spawn there. Basically I take off all my armor to avoid repair costs, stand at aforementioned spot on top of a spawn of 8 of them and let them auto-attack me. When they land a hit, my follower will engage and wipe them out - gaining rep.
The only challenge is to not go AFK for too long and keep an eye on your follower's health.
(Again, not the best spot, but worth mentioning if you wanted to say watch the extended cut of all the Lord of the Rings movies.) XD

Alliance with a level 3 garrison can earn very fast reputation when using the Hallow's End decoration Striscianti Inquietanti
Two battle pets spawn very close together between the training dummies and the mine entrance, with a third only 15-20 yds away, and they respawn instantly.

~51k/hour for AoEing just the two behind the training dummies
~71k/hour if you include killing the third pet 15-20 yds away
