Spawns in Northwest Silithus, sends an emote throughout the zone. Brings a lot of 57-59 regular elementals that look like him along. 4 Patrol with him, the rest just hang around like the Dust Stormers normally do.

Comentado por kahdgarxi

Fairly easily solo'd as a 70 Disc/Holy priest (pre PoM nerf). Just fear the adds, keep up SW:P, and heal through his damage.

Comentado por 30401

Went to sithilus to farm some essence of air, and noticed a LOT of dust stormer and invaders. I got an emote saying he was in the Northwest.

Took him down easily as a 70 rogue, he dropped 2 essence of air and the stormshroud pattern. But be warned! When you kill him, most of the elementals in the area will despawn - so you won't be able to farm essence of air as easily.

Comentado por ceemeeir

His drop rate is funny, because wowhead says only ~15% for 2 items, but when I killed it, dropped everything for me.

Comentado por malcontentus

Elemental Leader for the Elemental Invasion in Silithus. Invaders will stop spawning after he is killed.

Comentado por 65684

He drops some blue Mail wirsts as well.

Good for hunter and warrior.

Comentado por zenon

it is true that he is surounded by 4 other elementals and if u pull one of them...u pull all of them =/ so be careful

Comentado por 42229

Easy solo as aff warlock... Send in VW, dot everything, HoT, full dps on boss, the adds die pretty quickly.

Dropped 3x, 2x, 1x, 1x, 2x.

Comentado por Kianna

Anyone know how often he will respawn? I found him today and some bastard 70 tagged him right in front of my nose while I was waiting for my friend to come and help me kill him, so I'm still stuck with 3/4 Stormshroud QQ.

Comentado por 66643

Just solo'd him on a 70 rogue. He dropped: Elemental Airx5 Essence of Airx2 Breath of Windx4 Zephyr Cloak The Pattern for the gloves and Core of ELementsx2.
I heard he spawned around every 2 weeks, so be careful

Comentado por 79107

Easy take down by a lvl 70 BM hunter
Droped Patterns and 3 Essence of Air
realy not worth it

Comentado por 84150

Kinda hard on a 70 arms warr, not epiced at all, needed to use a healthstone, but dropped pettern, belt, 4 breath of winds and a couple essences. Worth it i'd say.

Comentado por RadioMan

This guy is evidentally the Wind part of the Elemental Invasion. The Fire part happens in the center of the Un'Goro Crater and the Water/Ice part happens near Kel'Theril in Winterspring. When there is an Elemental Invasion, an Elite NPC spawns with a crowd of adds, and the area becomes infested with a bunch of lower level guys as well. Any given Invasion is a great time to farm elemental-related drops, as well as the Elite dropping some good stuff, but be advised that upon killing the Elite, the Invasion is over and all the rest of the adds despawn and don't come back.

Comentado por hypnoticbob

You're forgetting about the other invasion in Azshara (to the far northeast). Check out this WoW Wiki page: http://www.wowwiki.com/Elemental_Invasions

Comentado por Hamor

Found this guy today and brought in my 2 level 65 friends to help since I couldn't solo on my 60 druid. It was very very easy at that point, but he has 3 guards that can't be pulled solo, so be watchful.

Dropped https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=2245 in addition to gloves pattern, sash, and a bunch of elemental stuff. No card like I'd hoped, but sweet loot none-the-less.

Comentado por 120907

As long as this elite remains alive, Whirling Invaders will continue to spawn.

After killing the Invaders, it'd seem their essence drop rate is higher than the Dust stormers.

upon defeat, there'll be an emote stating "The Windreaver dissapates into the ether, his howling winds still ringing in your ears." There is no shout, so the zone wont be alerted to his defeat. For me, he dropped:

5 Elemental Air
1 Essence of Air
2 Core of Elements
Pattern: stormshroud gloves
Ace of Elementals

Comentado por 21986

He is immune to stun and poisons.

Comentado por 68999

i dont recommend trying to solo him if your still under 60 - coming from a hunter.

Comentado por Thottbot

As long as he is alive the Whirling Invaders are still around. They can be famred for Essence of Air more easily than Dust Stormers.

Comentado por Thottbot

I been grinding there for 2 days straight and i never seen him, what is his spawn rate//location plz.

Comentado por Thottbot

Unless you're a complete nature resist freak, this guy isn't worth killing considering the only worthwhile item he drops is geared to shammies. You're better off letting him live and farm his little friends. They're 10 times easier than the native elementals. I've made over 300g from the essences I've gotten from this event. There always seems to be alot of female NE hunters on my server when he spawns though....

Comentado por Thottbot

this has one use for everyone Auction house!

Comentado por Thottbot

he comes with 3 adds (non-elite lvl 57-58)
his normal attacks hit for 500, crits for 1k; plus he casts shocks for 1k+ damage and ae storms

bring at least 2 friends, preferrably 1 healer class

Comentado por Thottbot

bow in this context=breath of wind

Comentado por Thottbot

killed with Druid (me) mage, and pally. He dropped Ace of Elementals somehow, anyone know if he is supposed to? =X

Comentado por Thottbot

Stop killing him. The essences farmed from his invaders > his loot. always. The invaders keep coming if he's alive, so stop killing him for a card you can get off of alot of other elites, or a mediocre shaman belt.
For those wanting enchants, when he is up is the best time to farm for your essences. Good luck.

Comentado por Thottbot

Wouldn't you think it makes sense (if you were farming) to keep things competetive? The enchants etc. that use Essences are good money makers... and those lvl 60 mounts aren't cheap. If everyone was selling essences, price would go down.

Comentado por Thottbot

He's an event spawn.

He spawns on the north-western corner of the map.

You can see if the event if is happening if you go there and see DARK coloured "wind elementals" + the normal ones there.

This is a big guy with 4 ads.

I did it 2 days ago.
Just me, Priest , and a Warlock. Both 60s of course.

Comentado por Thottbot

Dropped 3x Elemental Air, 2x Breath of Air, 1x Essence of Air, 1x Zephyr Cloak, 1x Ace of elementals. Did it with a druid.

Comentado por Thottbot

Apparently this guy also drops the new elemental leatherworking pattern for the new Stormshroud Gloves. Not sure about the drop rate or any of that bull%^&*, but this is information that Thottbot and Allakhazam don't even have in their database as of yet. Just thought I'd let you all know.

--------------------------------------------------

Stormshroud Gloves 109 Armor, +1% chance to hit, +1% chance to critical strike, Level 57, Leather (Rare BoE)(Rare BoE plan drops from the Windreaver Air Elemental Invasion Boss in Silithus)
- 6 Enchanted Leather, 4 Essence of Water, 4 Essence of Air, 2 Cured Rugged Hides, 2 Ironweb Spider Silk
Stormshroud Set Bonus(4): +14 Attack Power
Picture of the pattern drop.

Comentado por Thottbot

So if this is an event spawn, once the event begins and you kill him how long before he respawns? Does anyone know ?

Comentado por Thottbot

killed him 5 min ago, just used 2xgreater nature prot pots.
drop: pattern : storm gloves, 2xessence of air and zephyr cloak.

Comentado por Thottbot

You know hes around when he Yells: Here approaches windreaver. lol

Comentado por Thottbot

can any1 give me coordinates where he is:P?

thx

Comentado por Thottbot

All 4 of the bosses can be soloed by a warlock, however, your spec will judge the difficulty of the fight.

Personally, I would believe Soul Link to be the best spec to solo them all-around. Conflag has a hard time on Baron, and misc. affliction builds including SM/Ruin would have trouble dispersing the damage on Avalanchion.

Anyway, for this all three of the bosses besides Avalanchion, your best bet would probably be to start out with a Felhunter (most cost-effective method, an Infernal is overkill IMO) - in the case of Avalanchion, a voidwalker since his damage is physical, and have him attack the boss. Banish one add, fear another, put CoDoom on the boss and then take out the last of the three as fast as possible. Each add only has about 2k HP so 2 or 3 shadowbolts + a shadowburn can remove them pretty fast.

At this point, your felhunter should have a *moderate* amount of aggro, and a corruption won't take aggro. Re-fear, make sure banish doesn't wear, and the moment the boss turns on you re-cast corruption, and spam SB. The bosses do not melee if they are at range, they all have a ranged attack (this includes Avalanchion.) Midway through the fight, you might need to recast a pet (with Fel Dom if you have) to take aggro on one of the adds, or if your initial pet is still alive, sic it on one of them. Once your HP gets below half, all you can really do is DPS as fast as possible. Normally, I have the bosses at about 20-30% by the time Doom goes off, and they die.

Dealing with the adds afterwards can be a little hectic if you are low on HP. Keep one Banished and the other Feared, keep DoTs on the feared mob and drain life/bandage as necessary. If you have no chance of course, collect monies and run away!

With a 10% ace drop rate, when these guys spawn all I can say is to get off your rump and kill them in chain. As alliance, I find it easiest to go to Silithus => Un'goro, hearth to IF then boat to Darn, Winterspring => Azshara. Azshara is usually the least active, while Silithus and Winterspring tend to be the most active; as such, as horde I would suggest going to Winterspring before Azshara (even though azshara is closer to Org.)

He doesnt drop anything that great seriously...

Comentado por Allakhazam

Soloed as warlock with voidy, i dont care if people wanted stuff, i saw it as a challenge and i dont complain about getting 2 essences and a good pattern for killing one mob

Comentado por Allakhazam

So instead of everyone making hundreds of gold pieces farming the whirling invaders, you kill the Windreaver for a 1/20 chance of getting plans..or a 1/10 chance of getting the Ace. Really brilliant. How much NR stuff could you get with 300g worth of essence?..alot more then one cape. The Windreaver just showed up in Silithus, and by the time I got there from Cenarion Hold and killed one Invader the Horde had killed him already and everything despawned. So once again everyone one gets screwed because of a few noobs greed and short-sightedness.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Want the essences?(no comment)

Kill the other air elementals.
Sure there are other ways to get some of the things he drops like the Ace or a better NR cloak, they take longer just to get just like farming the regular air elementals would take longer to get Essence of Air.

Cry more about your precious essences... /sigh

Comentado por Allakhazam

I soloed him with my priest in 2 times... loot 2x Zephyr Cloak and few Essences of Air

Comentado por Allakhazam

If u kill him all the whirling invaders will disappear, so you might piss off ppl farming those ,with killing Windreaver :).

Comentado por Allakhazam

killing this dude should be punishable by internatinal law and be count as a murder. I stand and farm the elementals, has gotten one essence
THEN 4 alliance (I play alliance too) appoaches and kills windreaver. SO WHAT THE HELL AM i DOING NOW? STAY AND FARM THE DUST STORMERS WHO GOT 2% DROP CHANCE? I NEED 10 ESSENCES SO I DON'T WANT TO KILL 500 STORMERS FOR MY NEEDS. %^&*ing bastard noobs...

Comentado por Allakhazam

dont kill him =)

clearly as it should be

only a retard with the brain downsized to minimum would kill this guy instead of the spawns the approach as long as he�s alive

much more profit than killing windreaver himself

stupid noobs not even bright enough to check the forum posts while looking at teh imbaah epix loot

oh my god ...

i saw my friend killed him like 4times and 2 of the 4 blue drops was ace of elementals and always dropped 2essence of air .

they killed him with 4 man he got 3 windreavers(adds) to so its a quite hard mob to kill.and he deals massive damage to .

Comentado por Allakhazam

Extremely tough elemental, to do with the Elemental Invasions mentioned in the patch notes I assume. He hits for 300-600 damage with melee, uses Chain lightning for about 500-700 frequently, and shocked me once for 1000. He also has quite a lot of hit points.

He comes with 3-4 Whirling Invaders as well, so don't attempt him without a good party at your back. Wouldn't mind seeing what else he drops though!

Comentado por Allakhazam

but don't be so bloody frigging dumb and kill him... GOD!

All I know is that when I'm up there and he's spawned, I am going to farm all the airs I need off his minions and then kill him for the pattern on my elemental LW rogue. Go @#%^ing cry if you want his minions' loots I want my damn pattern.

And just for the record i do know how hard and annoying they are to farm for i got a hunter where i farmede air for 2xagil on weapon, and for all the other freaking agil enchants we need it for, beside that i farmede them for my paladins hide of the wild, not 2 mention i helpede lots of friends do the same. Big deal if u dont want to farm that farm water and transmute it to air, works easly to, or go farm the cave at wpl for a chance at living essence and the greater nature pot u can sell for an easy 100g and buy u airs on ah.

Killed one of these in a 2 man group. He dropped 2x Essence of Air.

He is immune to silence it seems.

Comentado por 7ammerheart

Solo'ed him as a lvl 60 fire mage, with a mix of mostly ZG, AQ20 and some BWL gear. It took me 3 tries before I succeeded. Even then I died right after I had got him down! What makes the fight difficult is not as much his adds, but that he won't be trapped by frost nova.

My advice is; Firstly, clear the area infront of where you mean to fight him. Secondly, If you are a fire mage: Use all your CD's, start off with a fireball or pyroblast. As soon as the Windreaver and his adds get close, use frost nova to trap the adds, and get away from the Windreaver with blink. Get an ignite rolling with scorch, and if you have time, cast another fireball. If not, use every instant cast you have, especially fire blast, to try to burn him down quickly. Blink away once more if you can so he doesn't kill you. I also used mana shield and dampen magic, but I'm not sure how much it helped. In the end, killing him came a bit down to luck, but mainly it was also just about nuking him before he got to you.

For me he dropped only one essence of wind, but also the Zephyr cloak and the blue recipe. Not a bad haul :)

Good luck!
