I tried the strat listed on this page at least 30+ bandages. Tried this, worked on the 3rd try (and I messed up the 1st try). Posted by user 3ceph0los on Gloamwing's wowhead page.

Tiny Snowman 2 1 2
Ominous Flame 2 2 2
Crazy Carrot 2 1 1

1. Pass - Tiny Snowman switched with Crazy Carrot
2. Ironbark
3. Blistering Cold
4. Pass - switched with Ominous Flame
5. Scorched Earth
6. Forboding Curse
7. Pass - switched with Tiny Snowman
8. Deep Freeze
9. Call Blizzard
10. Magic Hat

Yes! Thank you so much. Worked first try.

First try. Thanks

AusChameleon wrote on 2017-09-07 09:49:49

RNG meant took a couple, but best strat I've tried yet. Ominous flame had 75hp left lol Usually he dies, lucky he didn't cos my snowman died at the end.. the bleeds killed him as he died.

Cambridge wrote on 2017-09-07 12:17:52

Double Magic Hat in the end is much more reliable

Drizz wrote on 2017-09-07 12:59:50

Worked perfectly the 1st time

Fun and clever strat, worked for me the first time, thank you!

Ryuuken wrote on 2017-09-16 00:24:27

First try I followed exactly and Gloamwing wound up with 15 health left.
Second time I used Magic Hat after Deep Freeze, and then Blizzard so Scorched could get an extra hit. I think Gloam had about 170 something health, but Blizzard crit. Not sure if it would have succeeded.

Kerrchak wrote on 2017-09-19 02:15:49

I actually ended up using Blizzard BEFORE Deep Freeze to guarantee the Stun to go off and it worked out even better than all my other previous attempts. Even the ones where I tried to use double Magic Hat.

Call Blizzard ended up pushing Gloamwing below 50% which allowed my Deep Freeze to go first. This means you get an extra turn of all your dots ticking damage which is much, much better than just one extra turn of Scorched Earth ticking damage.

Eno wrote on 2017-09-21 02:46:26

Worked 1st try

Quintette wrote on 2017-09-21 07:39:41

Thank you Ashers...took two turns but finally beat that royal pita Gloamwing

Very solid strat!

Coton wrote on 2017-09-26 13:26:01

I couldn't get this to work. After several tries, I switched turns 8 & 9, I called Blizzard first then Deep Freeze. It worked for me and completed the fight!

Chrisski wrote on 2017-10-04 03:09:58

wrote on 2018-12-08 03:52:05

This worked for me. I would change the wording of the instructions on turn 5. Your Stout Alemental isn't forced in. You pass on the Water Spirit and it dies, then you select your Alemental, who uses Dive on turn 6 while Gloamwing is stunned.

wrote on 2018-09-23 03:40:46

Works. Took a few goes due to rng but it does work

Hawaha wrote on 2017-09-14 21:39:20

rounds are wrong. dive will dodge the exchange to stout.

Anonymous wrote on 2017-09-26 07:41:43

I noticed that too

Cruccolo wrote on 2017-11-10 22:05:14

Yeah, they say "don't use wowhead use wow-petguide", but then here the wrong strategies cannot be fixed.

Ruta wrote on 2018-02-01 08:57:49

This strategy does work. It is very RNG dependent, but no way as bad as Aquatics (or even Critters). Possible within ten repetitions YMMV.

Anonymous wrote on 2017-09-07 13:37:37

another strat: (since i didn't have Ominous Flame, Water Spirit or Alemental). I used Fetid Waveling with Ooze Touch, Corrosion and Healing Wave, Crazy Carrot with Jab and Blistering Cold, and Magma Rageling with Flamethrower, Flame Jet and Magma Trap.
Strat with Fetid Waveling > Pass, get swapped to Crazy Carrot. Throw up Blistering Cold, then Jab, then Crazy Carrot needs to die to Gloamwing's swap ability. Magma Rageling comes in, use Magma Trap, then Flame Jet, and if you're lucky, Flame Thrower. Magma Rage needs to die to swap ability, then Fetid Waveling comes in. The order here depends on when the Stun from Magma Trap goes off. For me, it ALWAYS went off during 1st or 2nd turn of Fetid Waveling being in. This is just obnoxious rng and we do what we have to. At any rate, I put Corrosion on him, then if he gets stunned, I heal then Ooze touch twice. If he didnt get stunned after I applied Corrosion then I Ooze Touch him, and hope for the stun, then heal and Ooze Touch again for win. It's a super RNG fight no matter what you do, this is just an alt strat for those that don't have the pets listed above.

Matt wrote on 2017-09-09 18:18:21

A few of these fights really are RNG monsters. This strat worked for me after about 6 tries or so. Thanks!

Rdord wrote on 2017-10-29 10:16:50

Ended up getting Snowman 2/1/2, B/B Tainted Waveling 1/2/x and Magma Rageling 1/1/2 to work with RNG. You need to chain stun in the final stages to double up with Magic Hats.


Corrosion>Ooze Touch>Waveling dies
Magma Trap>Flame Jet>Rageling dies
Call Blizzard>Magic Hat>Deep Freeze>Magic Hat

Arylachor wrote on 2017-12-03 21:38:14

Thank you for this, took many tries but it worked. Glad I found a strategy that used pets I actually had.

Tatahe wrote on 2017-09-06 18:25:15

Small clarification. Just ignore the breeds, this pets only have one breed each. Idk why people put breeds xD

Yepah wrote on 2017-09-07 16:08:30

I had never suggested a strat before, so I wanted to make sure I included any information that might be relevant. I'll know for next time that it's not always necessary :)

Cruccolo wrote on 2017-11-10 22:01:05

The strat doesn't work, the dive will make it miss the swap. If it's your first strat, please write it correctly :-)

Anonymous wrote on 2017-09-06 04:32:14

Works but bring lots of bandages, you will need them

Anonymous wrote on 2017-09-06 07:32:20

ya. pray that u can dive in around 3...

Ziv wrote on 2017-09-06 12:04:52

Corehound pup survived but barely with 37 hp. I nearly started the fight over before that round. So glad I didn't!

Yepah wrote on 2017-09-06 16:08:12

@Ziv, yeah, it seemed sketchy at first, but I had the same outcome 3 out of 4 times (exactly 37 hp), so I figured it was worth suggesting. Occasionally Gloamwing will get that lucky third Slicing Wind off and you'll have to start over :-(

Castratia wrote on 2017-09-06 16:27:53

How does this work? Even when my Water Spirit gets that dive in, my Corehound is killed before he can dive. Every. Single. Time. Is there a substitute for the Corehound that can survive long enough to finish this b*st*rd off?

Castratia wrote on 2017-09-06 16:53:24

Okay. After wiping multiple times on this rotation (as above), I tried Scratch instead of Burrow. Killed him. Not sure if it was due to RNG, but thought it might be worth mentioning.

Tatahe wrote on 2017-09-06 18:30:50

This is really RNG. First you need to avoid getting 3x hit by Slicing Wind at all. Second you need to avoid all crits and last, you need to roll above average on last turn... I failed this with a Gloamwing 1 HP on last turn. Was really painful FeelsBadMan

Rifkin wrote on 2017-09-07 08:17:29

haha thanks for the idea Castratia, but I thought I might as well push my luck further and try burn since it has the possibility of doing more damage - core hound came in at the end howled and burn hit for 632 :D

Verges wrote on 2017-10-13 09:26:23

Very true, any crit or triple hit will end this fight. Given strat does works but be prepared to make multiple attempts (5 for me)

Shashos wrote on 2017-09-06 22:25:45

I give up on this one. Even if my Alemental only gets hit by one Slice, the Corehound does not do enough damage to finish him off. The amount of RNG on Gloomwing is awful.

Chur wrote on 2017-09-06 10:30:47

I do not have core hound pup. is there an alternative ?

purpleblob wrote on 2017-09-06 15:13:28

All you have to do is put authenticator on though.
Edit: it also deactivates if you unlink the authenticator.

Anon wrote on 2017-09-06 21:18:23

With perfect RNG, i subbed the core hound pup out for Droplet of Y'Shaarj, with Corrosion then Expunge. But bring your bandages it took me like 30 tries.
