Not a rare-elite, just a rare.

Commento di h0pe

Just stumbled upon him at 46,70. He was pretty hard for a 65 rare. Had a harden buff at about 50% I think that tripled his armor or somthing. So be careful as he takes a while too kill as a melee class. Dropped - Dragonbone Ring

Commento di nosound

"... of the Bandit" is very nice for hunter.. got my ring and i'm happy about it :)

Commento di 20273

Just killed him at 46.3 x 69.9.
He dropped "of the Falcon" variant.
+19 Agility, +19 Intellect

Commento di 46568

I just killed him, he dropped DragonBone Ring of Agility (+30 Agi)

Commento di 45604

I was running around by 32.57 (coords) when I saw a purple figure walking. I dismounted and sent my pet, but dindt notice the 3 scorpids that aggroed my pet. At 15% I kited him till he died. My addon marked him with 11kHP and dropped Dragonbone Ring of Power (60AP) kinda nice >=)

Commento di 47098

I got the one of solider (15 str 23 stam and 15 crit strike rating) really gd for my feral druid

Commento di Fedelis

Found him at about 35,51. I took him down to 50% hp and then ran him into the Refugee Caravan. They killed him pretty quick and I still got the loot. Of the falcon. He had about 12k hp according to an addon of mine.

If you can find him around the Refugee Caravan I highly suggest trying to kill him. Even if you can't, all you have to do is get him to 50% HP and take him to the guards. It's almost a free blue.

Commento di eDGe87

Found him around 34, 50. Pretty hard for a rare mob, but not "hard". :P Especially as a Paladin. Dropped Dragonbone Ring of the Whale (30 sta, 19 spirit).

Commento di 75113

if founded him on north-east of the caravan , im soloed him ( 64 frostmage) and i dont use any trinket or pot just use elemental

Commento di 76660

Me and my group killed this guy twice, once on the way in to Sethekk Halls and once on the way out.

Commento di 78263

Easy as a 65 warlock, even pulled another add. Dropped ring, sells for about 50g on my server.

Commento di blupache

He casts a floating bone-shield style effect on himself during the combat (Bone Armor). Looked like an an instant cast damage-absorb shield & it didn't show up as a buff to him on my setup, but - as Aran mentioned - a shaman can purge it (and I did, so I dunno how much damage it absorbs and/or how long it lasts). All his other attacks seemed to be melee.

Can't really comment on how hard he was cos I was herbing with a raid geared 70 when he attacked me, so it wasn't a very even fight.

Commento di 115044

Very easy 67 as BM hunter with decent gears.

Commento di 120179

Took him out easy 64 BM Hunter, had to walk backwards and got 2 adds though, so it was tough. He dropped "of the Sorcerer" he wasn't all that tough, though

Commento di greenleg1

I kill him twice, today and yesterday
he drop the ring... both with frost protection
i was like very surprised... like i thought that is all he drop
come here and check... frost protection=1.4%
......
i feel totally special

Commento di 19955

Was easy to solo on a 64 shadowpriest, I didn't even need to drop shadowform and heal. Hit me for about 300 melee after using a pierce armor skill. Didn't realize I could dispel the bone shield, but it only absorbed maybe 3000 damage at most.

Commento di 177124

Just got this ugly lil critter in the bowl of auchidoun-as I was in party already we burnt him down pretty fast and I won the roll for the "of frost protection" ring that dropped. Ive been playing two years and I've never spotted him before ^_^ just keep your eyes open and be lucky :)

Commento di 190942

if you are lvl 65 u will kill him, or else u just suck :D

Commento di thebum

The bone shield absorbs around 1k damage. He absorbed my crusader strike, a melee hit and 100 damage from judgement of command.

Commento di Cross88

He wanders around the inner ring of Auchindoun, among other places. There are certain rare spawns that just seem out of place where they appear, like Narillasanz, or Hed'mush the Rotting. I saw Crippler in an area otherwise devoid of life, near the summoning stone. I was shocked to see him.

Commento di 186100

pretty hard for lvl 65, hits for 350-450 on leather armor. i just killed him, lvl 67 combat rogue and it was pretty easy, just cheap shotted backstab, SS,SS,eviscerate. after that i popped evasion then continued with SS and eviscerate. bam. dead

Commento di Lickking

I have been leveling in Bone Wastes for about 5 hours when I saw him on my feral druid he must have just spawned as he not easy to miss. For a lvl 65 druid with quest gear only he was easy and dropped Dragonbone Ring of the Beast.

Commento di 244430

He is trackable with sense undead or any elixers or undead tracking.
You'll just have to master the minimap and find his name when you scroll through the millions of other undead targets in your map. My heart gasp-thumpity-thump when I saw his name pop up.
Happy hunting!

Commento di 334191

Found around Auch, pats around the outside. or he will just spawn in the middle.Yet he is very bloody easy to kill, solo'd as a 64 disc priest. Cake!

Commento di 348767

Found him at 40,52 - easy on 80lvl.

Commento di Yarkor

As a level 65 frost mage easily owned him with 3 adds and debuffs. Even got Medum rare

Commento di 362999

Found walking around the north-western spirit tower. Easy to spot for it looks weird.
Dropped Dragonbone Ring of Fire Protection.

Commento di lysaea

Took Crippler less than five minutes after Okrek. /target macros for the win. If you're going for Bloody Rare, try making 2 macros with all or your NPCs names in em, and spam 'em whenever you're flying about. i.e.:
/target Crippler
/target Okrek
etc.
all as one macro.

Commento di SpareSimian

Encountered on the south side of the Auchindoun meeting stone as 66 frost mage. Took some time to take down, but otherwise not difficult. I was surprised to see a mob down in the pit by the stone. He appears to just orbit the meeting stone.

Commento di 465044

Just went killed him on Cho'Gall. I have been camping him. He spawned at 7:10pm server time. In the middle of the area he walks. I hope this helps. :-)

Commento di 586210

confirmed....i came as him at 45,74. Very very easy for me as i'm level 80 warlock. Dropped blue item Dragonbone ring of fire protection...worth 3g 66s 89b.... :-)

Commento di 232895

Appears to spawn around 18 hours after maintenance.

Commento di 513901

He doesn't even have any mana!
How is he in Shadowform?

Commento di 260150

It seems the proximity to Auchindoun and the achievement seekers grinding their dungeons / reputations / questing in the area keep Crippler's uptime fairly short. He's last on my list, I hope I find him soon!

Post-hunt tip: If you're using NPCScan or similar to locate him on the map, consider tracing just the route that Wowhead shows this NPC travels to prevent too much overlapping of your search area, thereby making it less likely you will fly by. Paladins with 310% flying using crusader aura on slow connections would do better to slow down a bit so as not to pass over their objective :P

Commento di 513113

Found him at far north of Bone Wastes and got Bone ring of the Eluding

Commento di eternalyaliv

Found it at 50.1,71.3 on a Sunday at 9:52pm server time (Akama), he has a shadow "aura"

Commento di Harmony323

Found him at 41,65. He was fairly easy for me to kill as a resto shaman.

Commento di 806399

I have been looking for this guy for quite some time now. I started thinking about rare spawn mechanics... some are said to be on timers, some are said to work in other ways. One sort of spawn mechanic would be for every "normal" mob spawn, there is a small(!) chance of spawning the rare spawn instead, or even a set value like one in every n spawns is the rare spawn. Most likely some rare spawn mechanics is a combination of several factors.

Anyway after having looked for him for a few weeks, I changed strategy. So I flew around one-shotting skeletons around Auchindoun for five minutes when Crippler spawned just in front of me.

Might have been luck. Might have been pure chance. Still, it is interesting...

Commento di 421539

Found him today while playing flying over the area and playing peggle, scared the crap out of me...

Happy Hunting

Commento di 371851

Auchindoun has become an Archeological dig site, and I believe this has led to a lower rate of killing by rare hunters. Due to this current situation, I would suggest more frequent fly overs of the middle and surrounding areas to increase chances of killing it before a digger does.

I killed Crippler around 3:30PM PST on the North Eastern side, close to the inner edge.

Commento di Attilathehun

EU, Sunstrider
Killed @ 41, 53.4
Server time: 13:27

Commento di 871294

Has anyone seen the corpse of Crippler and have it not despawn at all? I've been looking at it the majority of a day (over 20 hours for sure) while killing many skeletons. When I put a ticket in about it, the GM just made reference to the WoWHead site.

Shadow Council - US

Commento di 860416

Just got this sucker at 11:05 server time. Simple to solo as a DK doesn't hit too hard. it looked as if he was patrolling counter-clockwise around the auchinidom.

Commento di Azutael

This is the last rare spawn I need in outland, getting on my nerves that I never see it! :)
Going to try around the times I see others here have found it, to bad auchindoun is a archeology digsite. More people go there because of it, obviously.

But I will get it! Then it's onwards to Northrend and get the remaining ones there ;)

Commento di hedetet

Found and killed at 31,60 1:24am US-Burning Blade walking south.

Commento di Azutael

Finally found crippler at 50.3, 70.1 at approx 21.25. Was walking in the outer ring, east side going south.

Commento di Inygo

Does this guy pat around on these paths or does he just spawn and stay in one spot like the skeletons in the area?

Commento di 917705

Found and killed 8:20pm US-Shattered Hand almost directly north of the Auchindoun mausoleum.

Npcscan picked him up as I was flying towards the mausoleum from the Allerian Stronghold. Logged out to clear cache so his npcoverlay would show on my map. When I logged back in npcscan horned him again and I spotted him immediately, fellow was walking towards the east as I started on one of his center patrols in the Bone Wastes.

Commento di thefiery

Been looking for this guy for a while now until I read the comments here.

I passed over all the areas he should spawn and even went over them again for good measure. After a bit of frustration I had a gander on here and read the comments about him being a rare spawn of a Broken Skeleton so I killed Broken Skeletons around 49,73 south-east of Auchindoun and he spawned within minutes a few feet away.

It was either crazy coincidence or indeed killing the Broken Skeletons forces him to spawn.

Hope this helps any late Bloody Rare hunters :)

Commento di 798406

I was heading to run Sethekk Halls... and I was just afk in the sky while waiting for a friend. I watched him spawn at 38.80 67.33 - i'm sure there may be other places he can spawn but this is at least one of them. Cheers!

Commento di Purrrple

After having no luck spotting this guy when trying to finish the Bloody Rare achievement, I decided to try what an earlier poster had tried: kill skeleton mobs and see if he spawns.

IT SO WORKED!

I literally killed just 8 Broken Skeleton and then Crippler spawned at 48,70 right where I was. He dropped Dragonbone Ring of the Soldier.

So if you're having no luck either, definitely try this way so we know if it's not just some freakingly cool coincidence....

Commento di stormrage442

I was on my way to Deathshadow Agents for the Netherdrake dailies, on my way there I got the notification, but could not find him. On my way back I found him which was around 46.70 or so. Hope this helps.

Commento di 962194

I found him near the cabal skirmishers at one entrance where he was attacked by cabal skirmishers so becarful if our hunting on him
he can be killed by other NPC's
(at least thats the server im on)

Commento di McButterpants

Despite what other comments might say about "Fly in, kill a few skeletons and he spawns" do not believe them because this does not work.

I spent well over 2 hours flying in a loop over the locations marked by Wowhead and NPCScan Overlay and killed every skeleton in the Bone Wastes at least 3 times and never had Crippler spawn. I am STILL looking for him as he is my last kill for Bloody Rare.

Commento di 733675

Just found him East of Shadow tomb!

(if you have NPC_scan) He was at the start of the West line!

Commento di 1018034

I flew around the area wowhead has marked as spawn points for Crippler without NPCscan finding anything. Read some of the comments here about killing skeletons and tried that, after about 15 skeleton kills he spawned next to me at 46,75.

If you can't find him I would strongly suggest killing some skeletons, it worked for me at least, and I don't think it was a coincidence.

Commento di 1059216

just found him walking around coords 35.55 as i was doing quests around Auchindoun for the Loremaster, i think i was about halfway through the Terror of Terokkar

Commento di 1108302

I've been looking for this guy for about a week. Finally read the posts here and decided to try killing broken skeletons. Killed 9 and Crippler spawned in front of me. So as of March 2013, this strategy still works.

Commento di Rexarjr

Easy one. Search in Northren side of Auchindown.

Commento di HavenCeles

I hate him... I hate him so much *grumble growl*

Commento di Sandbutcher

Just killed this fellaw, near the enterance of "shadow tomb" Northwest from center of auchindoun. Time was around 2:10am first time camping this guy and took only 7minutes. I recommend to check the rare mob spots at these times.

Commento di 1184460

Like most, I was extremely skeptical about clearing skeleton mobs in the hopes that it would cause Crippler to spawn. But I happened to be in the area, already checked his spawn and patrol point about 3 times each and had nothing better to do so I decided to give it a (long) shot. Killed about 15 skeletons and when he didn't magically appear in front of me I said "sod this" and headed towards Shatt. My NPCscan went off at around 48.2, 55.2 and there he was in all his glory!

I'd like to put it down to sheer luck but it's just too much of a coincidence.

Commento di 1153750

I killed some broken skeletons and like a month later he spawned right in front of me. coincidence? I think not. Seriously, I must have killed over a thousand of those things just out of frustration. This guy's a little harder to nab because he is in the middle of such heavy traffic. found him wandering the north east corner of Auchindoun at about 3:45am

Commento di voiiid

Update on the skeleton theory as of 22.sept 2014:
Just killed him 8:27am (Ragnaros-EU)
I have been camping and looking for him for a few months to finish my achievment, but ive never seen him. I saw him dead once. That was untill i started to read the comments here. I started to kill the skeletons (about 20 of them) then crippler spawned infront of me. It may not be confirmed, but im sure this is a rare spawn of the skeletons.

Commento di Gormadok

coincidence and only a coincidence. killed just few skeletons flying north and east of the middle of area and i found him walking around. luckly i found and killed doomsayer jurim 2 minutes earlier

Commento di Elladaryn

The way to go is killing the small skeletons to make him spawn as I have just found him on the third day about 5 minutes after i start the killing - but that probably does not mean he don't have an internal cooldown.
My thesis is that he have a X hours minimum respawn timer until someone triggers it again by killing the skeletons.

Commento di Philthegnome

I followed the comments about killing the Skeletons wandering around the bones wastes. First day killed a few dozen for 15mins and left, second day I come back, kill a few dozen, I'm about to leave when NPC scanner goes off and he spawns just a short distance away. Just keep killing skeletons and he'll spawn for you.

Commento di quinnlann

I've just now gotten the chance to work on the "Bloody Rare" achievement and I had a heck of a time getting Crippler.

I've farmed him the last week at several points of the day killing Broken Skeletons, rode around to all the spawn points, and even just sat and waited. Seems to be the most common location based on the comments was around 46,80 coordinates, so stuck around to that side for a good portion of time as well (and it apparently paid off).

FINALLY as I logged on my server and killed two Broken Skeletons, Crippler appeared in the distance at 49,72 for me. I received a Anello di Dragossa of the bandit.

So to sum this up for anyone looking for him, it is random. You might find him by killing a few broken skeletons, or you might have to log a week of kills before finding him. That was my experience. Submitted a screenshot as well.

Commento di Tecfan

Found him at the very south tip of his spawn area, and I had to go pretty close before NPCscan pinged me (I saw him before I was notified). Coordinates were /way 46.34, 79.36. I did kill a lot of skeletons on my way south, but he could very well have been there from before.

Commento di gunsotsu

wish this guy would die already..literally the last thing to do before i finish tbc content COMPLETELY. for crying out loud, ashes of alar dropped twice for me, and still this guy is not dead.

Commento di btrimble

Got him a couple of days ago.... Every time I went to the area, I would kill all the skeletons (west side of Auchindoun) as mentioned and... nothing. Every day almost. Then I went (again) and killed them all, and got interested in something in my backpack, (so I hung around a while instead of flying off) and he spawned right next to me. Been trying to get him for years and... it just happened like that. Was it killing off all the skeletons? Was it coincidence? Dunno.

Finaly found him at 46.9 62.7. Did not seem to be related to killing skeletons for my part.

Commento di Cailhel

I loaded the waypoints posted here earlier and connected/optimized them with the routes add-on. I did a complete circuit of the route once every half hour, and I didn't kill any skeletons. I found him on the 5th circuit at 46.3, 62.7. As someone else notes here, I saw his nameplate about 5 seconds before Silver Dragon picked him up, so be vigilant as you make your rounds. Good luck!

Commento di kioge

Found him at 32,51 after killing LOTS of skeletons on the east side of Auchindoun, mostly around 48,70

Commento di Dinkie86

Killed him today at 32.14 61.32. Just did a loop around following the map above. Did not kill any skeletons, and didn't see anyone else around killing them. either. Having NPCscan definitely helped.

Commento di selenche

15/04/2020 17:21 killed Crippler, inner Auchinodoun
Cleaned out Broken Skeletons southeast of Auchinodoun 20 times, no luck. Decided to do one last cleaning and to check Inner Auchinodoun. As soon as I got in, there he was, spawned right in front of me.

Commento di Sulf

Killed today at coordinates 46 51 . Was killing skeletons around 49 67 area South East of Auchindoun and decided to check North and North West spawn points, and RareScanner picked him up at one of the known spawn points.

My Experience Hunting Crippler:
(03/14/2023)

* Used RareScanner AddOn
* Used /tar Crippler Macro

1. I circled the known areas for Crippler for several hours
2. I was using the Macro to search for him when his profile blipped for a brief second before disappearing
3. The RareScanner AddOn showed that I had just seen Crippler but he had not spawned on the map after 4 more pass overs of entire spawning area (Roughly 15 minutes of time passed).
(Note: I logged off and logged back on again in the hopes that maybe it was a glitch. This did not do anything beneficial as he was still not visible after 2 more pass overs after logging back on.
4. I then began to think that what I actually witnessed was the RareScanner signaling that he was "Available" to spawn, not that he actually did.
(Note: Up until this point I had not killed any skeletons, per the comments of others in this post.
5. I then did 1 sweep and killed about 10 skeletons.
6. I then did 1 sweep of entire area to see results.
7. Crippler had spawned at the exact area that I had killed the skeletons at.

Conclusion:
I believe that what people are seeing when they are killing skeletons and Crippler spawns almost immediately is that they happen to have been in the right place at the right time. For those who hunted and killed skeletons for hours with no luck, they were killing skeletons at the wrong time because Crippler technically wasn't "Ready" to spawn from skeletons yet. From my experience, I believe that he is on an internal timer. Once this timer has finished, killing skeletons will trigger him to spawn randomly.

Commento di Sarriyu

Confirmed kill at 49.95 72.02 (WM on) today. Came to this area, started killing the skeletons around here. Took about 2 minutes and he popped in my face.

Commento di FirstWizard

Killed all the skeletons at 47,74, did one circuit through Shadowmoon Valley and came back to those coords, killed all the skeletons again and Crippler spawned at 47, 62 as I was flying past.

Commento di cassetto

So I was able to kill him today at 11:50am on Icrecrown NA, after a very short farm (10 minutes).

I tried the "kill skeletons until he spawns strategy for 2 rounds around the arena, then just went for the "hot spot" at (around) 50, 70. I killed TWO skeletons and he spawned in front of me. I am not sure if the strategy of killing skeletons helped much, but I can confirm that that spot is actually really good for spawning him.

Good luck!

Commento di grkthomas

49, 71. I killed skeletons, but I don't know if it made a difference.

Commento di Kables

After many days of hunting him, I finally got him on March 24th 2024 at 11:05AM.

He was walking at 33, 56.

I used to hunt him at 48, 68 and kill Skeletons to try and make him spawn. It confirms killing Skeletons doesn't help.

Also a tip in Dragonflight, I highly suggest using a normal flying mount. Dragonriding is too fast and you might miss the rare. I was flying on a non-Dragonriding mount and I saw him there while my Rare Scanner did not pop off.

Happy hunting!
