Samophlange Manual

Bring the Samophlange Manual to Rilli Greasygob in Orgrimmar.
Samophlange Manual

Description

I think I can fix the samophlange, but I'm going to need the user's manual first. When I was in the Venture Company I had a rival, Boss Copperplug, who hoarded the secrets of the samophlange, giving out small bits of knowledge on the device to those he trusted. I wasn't one of the trusted few...

Boss Copperplug used to stay at the Boulder Lode Mine in northeastern Barrens. Get the manual from him, and if he's given pages from it to anyone, you'll have to collect them too.

Reward

You can choose one of these awards:
Tork Wrench
Samophlange Screwdriver

Progress

Do you have the manual?

Completion

You got the manual! I can't wait to read it and find out how to fix the Samophlange! I spoke with Sputtervalve in Ratchet--he wanted to thank you for your help, and wanted to reward your efforts.

I want to thank you too, and if I ever get this thing fixed I'll let you know...

Very fast respawn rates. Be careful pulling, if you die you have to run all the way back from Crossroads and the entire cave will respawn by the time you get back. Which makes it very hard to find anywhere to rez in the cave. I died twice doing this quest and had to clear the entire cave 3 times because of the respawn rates.

If you must die, die with purpose: try running (and dying) right near Copperplug).

Then respawn and jump immed onto the barrel behind him. This will make you unreachable to them (and v.v, they will evade).

Powerup, then jump down, making your next life's aim: to KILL HIM and TAKE THE DROPs (Manual etc.)

At least when you die, you can just harvest the pages from the mobs outside the mine instead.

Any high armor class, like Druids in bear form, or Warriors, can try to run through the cave when they realize they can't handle the pulls, and as the above person suggested, park their corpse as close as possible to the last guy.

Personally, as a level 18 druid, I managed ok here, never died, although I did get very close once. I suggest taking every pull seriously and assuming it will become a 3 pull later on - as a Druid, cast both of your HoT's (Regrowth/Rejuv) before every pull, so you will have enough life if Bad Things Happen and you pull more through runners/respawns.

After you get the quest, you can just go out of Ogrimmar and cut across the river and you'll end up right near the Boulder Lode. When you turn it in, you can cut back the same way.

After reading these comments I felt like I was preparing to solo Molten Core. However it was really pretty easy as a lvl 19 warrior.

- Be patient
- Pull with ranged weapon (even if you're a rogue imo)
- Hamstring (or equivalent if you have it to slow runners)
- Look for patrols before each pull
- They run on <20% hp. Save a little dps burst for then
- Be careful you don't miss any when you get to Copperplug. Tab for closest target or you'll end up with a big pull.

Had no problems at all doing this.

For those who are doing this for TB rep (and anyone else) the start for all this is the actual Samophlange quest. You get it from the goblin right by the flightmaster in Ratchet.

This quest does not seem to decrease your Bloodsail Buccaneers reputation (at 80, Hostile.)
