Assault on the Pit (Blackrock Foundry Assaulted)

This Comment section will cover "How to Group // Solo.... Assault on the Pit
Good luck and i hope these will give you some good idea on how to do it.

- Have Added some of the "SOLO" Methods.
- Will Increase in future with more about Group Method Rares and drops.

Solo Mode:
These are the first following items you want to look for...
Mine Cart Require 30x Ammo= Follows a Rail for 20 seconds, Throw Mines while your inside. 47,29
[npc=86003] - 30x [object=236273] = Causes 35 Yard Wide AoE Effects at your given location.
[npc=85579] - 20x [object=236273] = Roll away an iron star to crush the Iron Horde beneth it.
[npc=86605] - 20x [object=236273] = Sends away to crush the Iron Horde (reaches aprox 50 yards)
[object=236421] - Open Cages - 7% progress.
[npc=85216] - 30x [object=236273] = gives you (~30 shots)
[object=236277] = adds 2% to progress. (its a Book).

Note: Raid Groups wont benefit from using Mechanics or rescue Cages.
- Raid benefits however still from "books" but mainly killing.

Note: Iron Star, Bombardment Signal Flare - Can be found on most location within the Quarry.
Iron Turret road up a small hill is at: 47.48 , 30.08

- Ammunition is all from "Wooden barrels", Mine storage, Huge Metal Boxes... It is easy to find :)

Avoid using "IRON TROOP LAUNCHER" = Sends the player into suicide positions.
Or sends you safetly to the oposite side of "The Pit".

Group farming:
Rares: Fight the Power
- Primal Spirit is never garantied, a chance as bonus to gain.

[npc=86562] = Loot [item=119230] & 1x [item=120945]
[npc=86579] = Loot [item=119228] & 15x [currency=823]
[npc=86574] = Loot [item=119226] & 13x [currency=823] & 1x [item=120945]
[npc=86577] = Loot [item=119229] & 12x [currency=823] & 1x [item=120945]

10-40 Apexis Crystals.
Can drop 620-630 Gear (Uncommon to Epic).
Grants 6 to 40 gold.

Single-easy:
- Pick up an "Orange-firey" Crystal. - 5min Buff causes insane AoE effect.

[h3 toc=false]Strategy and Mob Percentages[/h3]
Pick up the ammunition in boxes and barrels and go to the [npc=86091] (costs 30 ammo) or the [npc=85579] (costs 20 ammo) and shoot the Orcs. Do not go to the [npc=85211] as it will shoot you.

Destroying [object=236277] or freeing prisoners in [object=236421] also awards credit. The quest mobs hit pretty hard as they are intended for a 5-player group to defeat.

Easy soloable even if it says it is a group quest. Fly in to the Iron docks flightpoint. Make sure to stay high up on the higher levels, if you venture down to the bottom you will probebly die faster than you have time to utter a weak "yelp"!

There are ammunniton boxes and barrels scattered around the place, pick up so you have at least 30 ammunition, go to one of the cannons (not the launch ones, the suprise I felt when I was shot out into the middle of the packs instead of shooting at them was something I don't want to experience again). From the safety of the cannon see them orcs fall! Rinse and repeat.

There are elite patrols even at the higher levels sometimes, so be aware where you step. Stealth past, or wait for them to pass.

Should you have a group at hand, make sure to kill all rares, they drop more apexis crystals and gear, and contribute to the daily count. Kiting works if you don't have a tank.
