Arcanist Doan is located at the end of the Library wing.

Commentaire de 8237

Doan is a mage that can do the following things:

Arcane Explosion (instant small range AoE Damage)
AoE Silence (fairly long range, make sure your healers stay back a bit)
Polymorph (Polymorph's the target with 2nd most aggro)

In Addition when he gets to 50% life or so he will give himself a shield and prepare a Fire Nova attack that will hit everyone within 25 yards or so for 400-600 damage. Have everyone back off during this time to the hallway to prevent damage.

Commentaire de 9545

I'd even say stay outside the door if you are a caster. Both times I've been inside the main room for the fight I've been hit with his silence AoE, and as a the main healer that REALLY stinks.

Commentaire de andre3100

I think that Arcanist Doan is really easy if the casters stand outside the room.

Commentaire de doown

a level 40 feral druid can solo this one. stealth in, go in his room's corner, HoT's up, and bearform kill him. Mind the 2 mobs on the entrance.

edit: i managed to got him on a level 38 druid after patch 2.3. A good exercise for new feral druids, since you need to handle well both of your fighting forms and heal. I don't recommend Healing Touch because of the frequent silences, use HoTs instead.

Commentaire de 54092

41 feral druid easy with one health potion, agility elixir, and MotW. I used cat and when I healed I threw a moonfire on him. Also, always use regrowth before healing touch in case of silence, though I resisted a lot of his silence spells.

Commentaire de archimonde

he is irritable he uses polymorph silence and ice spells bether to clear the corridor before u take him

Commentaire de 78652

Warning:

AoE attack will kill anyone wearing sloth and with leather if your a low enough level. I suggest either interrupting him or walking away when he starts to cast it.

Commentaire de 7784

In Patch 2.3, Arcanist Doan will now drop this epic ring:

Level reduced to 35 after patch 2.3.

Commentaire de 106895

Soloed with my rogue 36 (ex top geared lvl29 twink: windstorm hammer with mongoose, AGM, etc...).
He have 8436hp and he is immune to poisons -_-

Commentaire de adashiel

As his description indicates, he was once a member of the Silver Hand. You can see him as he was in the Southshore inn of Old Hillsbrad. He is among members of the Order who were present for the transformation of the crystal of light, the foundation of the Ashbringer. His Old Hillsbrad entry:

Arcaniste Doan(##RESPBREAK##)2056##DELIM##adashiel##DELIM##

Commentaire de Bunji

If anyone is wondering: no, none of the weapons he drops are enchantable with TBC enchants. This is because required level overrides item level, which is only taken into account if there is no required level. Hope this was helpful.

Commentaire de 82368

This guy now has a fire nova type attack. It can easily hit a clothie for over 800 fire damage.

Soloed with a lvl 36 rogue.

-Pop your CD's and stick some sharp objects in him.
-At around 50% he'll do the fire nova; sprint, run away and bandage.
-Loot stuff

Commentaire de 106661

my rogue and a guildmate (druid) stealthed all the way to him and killed him. we did that 4-5times and the ring dropped :D

later, i was doing Graveyard to help a friend and the daggar dropped. guess i was lucky?

Commentaire de 109658

Don't forget to pick up the key for the Armory, behind him from the small chest afterwards.

Commentaire de 134367

Has he always dropped two rares at once? cuz i ran it twice and
he dropped 2 rares both times....

Commentaire de velja92

He exists in the Old Hillsbrad Foothils

Commentaire de Flashieme

This encounter is much like Shade of Aran, only for low lvls ^^;

I noticed this a few days ago when lvling my alt =)

Commentaire de 139841

Doan, he's a cool boss, when he says something about cleansing flame: GET BACK, that spell does A LOT of AOE damage, to Lv. 30 Cloth user was very damaging, my strategy, as a fire mage, is to hit him with despell after used his first spell, then use firebolt.

His drops are good, and make up part of the Mages "Set" (Note: These items have NO special, set, bonuses, just all drop from bosses in SM, are mage gear, and look good together) This "Set" consists of: Robe of Doan, Mantle of Doan, Hypnotic Blade, Orb of the forgotten seer, Nercrotic Wand, Whitemane's Chapeau, and Triune Amulet.

Good Luck, and peace out.

Commentaire de 148712

how much exp does he give? I'm thinking of bringing my twink in here (29) only got 2 bars lefyt or so, managed to get Thermaplugg's Left Arm by clearing up to him and then simply getting to him and owning him....

Commentaire de 146819

I checked the stats on Arcane Bubble, and it says he can't attack when he uses it. Unless casting damage spells doesn't count as attacking, it's not entirely true.

Commentaire de Thottbot

And probably could have at lower level. I wish I had known about the staff earlier and done the quest earlier. I was able to sneak through in cat form until the last boss.

34 is min req on staff - I imagine at that level it's possible, but 38+ and should be fairly straight forward to solo.

Tips On Boss:

He is q. easy - Just play safe and make sure you heal nice and early as he often silences you. When he says "Burn in Righteous Fire" run as far away from him as possible (you get a few seconds before the blast) and you will take minimal damage (he got me for 70)

I finished him with 3/4 health and more than 3/4 mana.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Just played him. He dropped his Illusionary Rod and his robe. wow that sounds perverted.

I took the rod cause i have the Lock Bloodrobe. Very nice drops.

(too bad i forgot to get the key :P )

Commentaire de Thottbot

My girlfriend just got him to drop the Illusionary Rod...and a warrior rolled Need over a druid, a priest and a resto shaman - and won it. He didn't even see anything wrong with that. "Why are you telling me I ninjaed it? I can use a staff!".

Commentaire de Thottbot

TY guys for all the help but i was just wondering where in SM u can find Doan i need his staff cause im a 32 Lock and its just plain old SICK! so please answer

TY!

Commentaire de Thottbot

He's the boss in library.

Commentaire de Thottbot

God his robe, the hypnotic blade and have 600 life 400 mana left as a 40 druid, easy, but he is rather annoying.
EDIT: He is fairly annoying, takes some time to kill, I could maybe kill 4 mobs in the same about of time, but he gives 1319 xp each kill and I don't really have to use potions...

Commentaire de Thottbot

Soloed as a lvl 40 rogue, used 1 superior healing pot & evasion
Spammed SS till I got 5 CP, then Slice and Dice
Run away when he screams "burn in righteous fire!"
Meaning: Fight him in the left/right side, when he casts the fire nova, run to the right/left side, very easy! (Use the same tactic when you're in a group fighting him, he's incredibly easy)

2 x Deadly Poison II

Got the robe and the rod :D

Now drops epic twink ring

Deadman's Hand

https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=34227

Commentaire de Thottbot

I was just killing some time waiting for a group, so I started messing around in the library. Fought my way about half way thru the zone until I reached the first bunch of 3 mobs. I used an invis potion and ran as far as I could, then FD'd in a quiet little corner. Waited for the 9min cooldown and used another so I could hop into Doan's room. Sicked pet and just fired away. It was a surprisingly easy fight. BM spec so pet held his own. Only had to heal him 3 times. Doan dropped Dagger and Robe. =)

Maysee - Draeni Hunter

Commentaire de Thottbot

when doan says "Burn in Righteous fire!" you may take up to 550 damage if you are near him. so my advice is, GET AWAY AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE when he says that. Also, his arcane explosion hits 180's.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Doan just dropped Deadmans Hand (epic!), but hunter won*cries*

Commentaire de Thottbot

Epic rings at 29!...things arent like they used to be thats for sure. Nice for anyone who can use Stamina tho.

Commentaire de Thottbot

That ring is sick for any ranged player. Hunters get 2 ice traps essentially. Rogues are probably the only non fan of the ring although 10stam is solid and I guess they could get the occasional pet off of them.

Commentaire de Thottbot

107 runs, and no ring. This is absurdity.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Is the droprate for this epic ring 5% or .01%? I can never get a straight answer, all I know is that I've done 140 runs and its the same crapola, no ring.

Edit:

OVER 200 runs. Did anyone get this ring by clearing path to boss with main, then switching to alt and pulling boss to ent with another char? I'm wondering if Bliz implemented some anti-twinking code or something, because this is some horrible luck otherwise.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Morons, this page is about Doan in Old Hillsbrad, not in SM. Go spread your leetness elsewhere.

Arcanist Doan is in the Inn in Southshore hangin out with his Scarlet homies

Commentaire de Thottbot

In Old Hillsbrad he is located in the inn in southshore. I am not aware of a way to attack him.

Commentaire de Thottbot

i was doing library for the first time on my warlock the butcher dropped and i was like nice then at the boss he drops the epic ring and the robe... and i diddnt win any of it:(

Commentaire de Thottbot

can i kill him if i am Dwarf?
or only Horde can kill him?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Wheres a picture of where this dude is?
Not the SM one i know that one.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Did his level change with 2.3? If so, what's his new level?

Commentaire de Thottbot

24 elite? Thats absurd! he cant drop level 34 gear if hes that low! was it a typing error? 34? i havent had a chance to actually log on and see if ur right but im pretty certain ur not.

Commentaire de Thottbot

yea is this normal?

I had a run and both the robe and staff dropped for me -_-.

Commentaire de Thottbot

Currently on my 19th Run...Starting at lvl 20 and not doing anything else until i get this.

I have seen it once before on my main but just once...very rare but it freezes ranged attackers soo its very good for rogues who hate being kited....like me XD

Hope this info helps

Commentaire de Thottbot

This instance (lib) can be soloed as prot pally as low as lvl 37. Pity he doesn't drop any pally loot ;-/

Most pulls are 1,2, or 3 mobs on the odd occasion. Use Retribution Aura, Blessing of Sanctuary, Seal of Light & judge light also. You will need 5 pts sunk into Redoubt, Anticpation, & most importantly Reckoning.Sink the rest into whatever.

Gear: For all your mail/rings/neck, Stamina Intellect & Strength items. Anything with + defence helps also.

Shield: Vile Protector https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=7747/vil-protecteur This is horde only & can be obtained @ lvl 28. MUST have a shield spike on it. I use mithril so that or thorium would be your best bet.

Weapon: Sword of Omen https://www.wowhead.com/tbc/item=6802/epée-de-présage This can be obtained @ lvl 33 & again, is horde only. I have feiry wep enchant which does the job. Something like lifestealing would be pimp though if you want to splash out a little more. Get some dense sharpening stones also & always keep it sharpened.

Ok, so that's the gear sorted, now the mobs.
Scarlet Gallant (stuns)
Scarlet Adept (heals)
Scarlet Beastmaster/Scarlet Tracking Hound
Scarlet Chaplain (shields, renews)
Scarlet Diviner (mana burn)
Scarlet Monk

Single pulls or Beastmasters/hounds are easy so I won't bother explaining that. Only that you should los pull the beastmaster around a corner into melee range.

X2 Gallant = easy, use Consecration till 1 is dead.

Gallant + Adept: Target Adept first, drop Consecration for faster kill till the Adept is dead. Use Arcane Torrent & HOJ when he tries to heal, once he's dead just dps down the Gallant.

Chaplain + Any: The Chaplains are a pain, they shield/renew themselves & their friends. I usually target the other mob first & keep Consecration down, that & your other aoe damage usually makes them shield/renew themselves. Your first target will probably still get 1 renew @ least. Try to HOJ/Arcane Torrent the renews

Chaplain + Diviner: Special mention for this combo. They are very tough. Always target Diviner first, that mana burn will ruin your run. Kill Diviner as fast as possible, try to stop mana burns & also renews from the Chaplain. Try to have 3 mana taps up when going into the fight.

Monks: These guys have pretty decent dps but hit pretty fast so they tend to proc reckoning a lot. Target them first when with a Chaplain & second when with a Deviner.

X3 Monks: High dps, keep Consecration down till there's just 1 left. bubble/heal if you have to.

In the grps of 3 mobs, see above & judge for yourself the best way considering the spells they use. Should only have 2 or 3 grps of 3. Kill the Diviners fast because you will probably need to bubble/heal which you can't do without mana ;-)

Don't be scared to use Lay on Hands if you really get into trouble on 1 of the grps of 3. You won’t need it for Doan.

The Run: I skip houndmaster, might try him tonight. Clear first Hall, pull single mob visible from the archway to the courtyard (mana tap good for this) pull back into the hallway, do same thing for mob further up. Now walk hard against the wall past the 2 dead mobs were until you're right in the corner. Pull the mob near next archway, when this guy is @ about 500hp switch to Seal of Justice & quickly judge him then back to seal of light. This stops him from running & agroing the other nearby mobs. Do this on any mobs you're worried about, just remember you wont be taking as much heals while Justice is judged though. Now just clear all the hallways all the way to Doan. Don't bother with all the side rooms.
*Use mana tap & los to pull the Diviners.

Doan: Stupidly easy, keep Consecration down, run from detention, bubble/heal if you need to. Only real problem is his silence, pays to refresh Seal of Light when it's @ about 10sec rather than just as it runs out & that takes care of the silence problem.

gl & happy hunting ;-)

Commentaire de Thottbot

dude where is this guy? where is "Old Hillsbrad"?

Commentaire de Thottbot

seriously...it says this guy is level 20 right? and he drops all that stuff...? or does all that illusionary rod, and robe of doan and stuff drop from the guy in scarlet monastery? why is there two of them! which one drops the staff and the robes damnet...? also..where is "Old Hillsbrad"? anyone help me out?

Commentaire de Thottbot

Old hillsbrad is a lvl 65 and up instance in the caverns of time he is in the inn in southshore but his drops are useless when you are that level

Commentaire de Thottbot

also the reason there are 2 of them is it is 7 years in the past and his level is lower to reflect that it is 7 years ago he is not need for any quest in old hillsbrad and is just htere to kill for fun if anything

Commentaire de Thottbot

so wut lvl do u need to be in order to kill this guy? im 38 lock and i could use the hypnotic blade or the illusionary rod and neither r in AH. because it says that this guy is a lvl 20 with a high percentage drop rate for hypnotic blade and i wanna know where exactly to find him also.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I had to do 29 SM runs to get that bloddy staff.

I already had it, but a guildie wanted it..

The 40% Chance of looting this staff is wrong,more like 10% ^^

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I ran throught the library in Scarlet Monastery twice so far and both times he dropped the Illusionary Rod and the Mantle of Doan.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Many druids wants the staff,or the dagger,coz they are good for a healer gear.
If you reach the lvl 40,you have a good chance to collect them!Whem im try ,to do this in the first time,im not to prepared.Im sneaked trought the way to Doan,and engaged him in his room.He was killed me,coz he cast a massive fire aoe after he loose half hp.Next time im carried some fire prot potiont with myself,this can help to avoid this spell(he is only cast one times).The second threat is the silence spell,keep some healing potions in hand,coz not sure to you able to cast a healing spell on yourself.He also cast an arcane base aoe spell continously ,but you can nothing to avoid this(cos no arcane prot potion for lvl 40-s).Finally,my tactic is:Ravage him first,collect some combo points,and rip or bite him,you dont need anything else.Watch your hp!If you have only 6-700 left,heal yourself,or if you have silenced ,drink a healing pot.You need a good timeing.Try to switch into caster form,and heal ,after the silence evade you!If you have 5-600 mana ,cast an innervate on yourself,before you swith into cat form.Dont forget to drink the fire pot. 2 mins before the battle!

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Doesn't Doan drop an Epic Ring now? Seems like my brother said something about seeing it drop...

Commentaire de Allakhazam

When I soloed Arcanist Doan at level 44 as a Druid, I found that he has the following abilities:
~He casts Arcane Explosion every few seconds (instant spell) that deals approximately 100-200 damage.
~At half health, he will say "Burn in righteous fire!" which means he is casting a huge area effect fire spell (easily nullified with a Fire Protection Potion; absorbs damage) that dealt 900 damage.
~If you have at least 1 other person with you, he will cast Polymorph which lasts an annoyingly long duration of 40 seconds.
~On top of this, he silences often for 8 seconds, which could be the turning point of the battle after he hits you with the high damaging area effect spell.

After killing him once, I had no problem doing it another time, knowing what is coming. I just prowled my way through Scarlet Monastery and watched the corners with Track Humanoid. Once getting to him, I used Ravage (like any other boss, he is immune to Stun), Rake, Claw, Rake (once previous rake damage over time effect wears off), then Claw or Rake if it wore off, then Rip. After that, I got in caster form and healed. He was hitting for about 75 I believe, and I stayed in Dire Bear form most of the fight after that unless I needed to heal. When he's at 55-60% health, make sure you are at full health or make sure you have a Fire Protection Potion handy.

Overall, particularly easy fight since he is a caster (lower hit points, attack damage, and defense it seems). It also helps your group to have a higher average level so you will resist his spells more often than if you were a lower level. Arcane Explosion (as well as the area effect fire spell)can make a group's life hell if the group's average level is below level 37.

Hope this helps.

The music in his room rules. Just felt the need to mention that.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

tried 6 times so far no staff drop..

Commentaire de Allakhazam

The list of items Doan drops -- listed above -- includes the Scarlet Key, and it's listed at 1.15%. This is somewhat misleading.

The Scarlet Key is obtainable 100% of the time -- not through a drop from Doan, but from the little black box in his room. If you look toward the north end of the room (furthest from the entrance to the room) you'll see a small black box on the floor.

Use your mouse, hover over it, and you'll get the yellow gear. Open it, and there is your key. The scarlet key goes directly to your Key Ring. If you ever lose it or mistakenly destroy it, you can go back and get another. Also note that everyone in the party who needs it can get it.. As I recall, the box doesn't disappear, you just take turns opening it.. if I'm in error, then it reappears momentarily, much like the book on the way to Doan's Room for the Quest "Mythology of the Titans" obtainable in Ironforge at level 34 or earlier (I got it at level 34, I'm fairly certain it can be obtained earlier, although the quest level is 38. The Allakhazam page doesn't have a "attainable" level listed).

It's an important key to get. Not only do you need it to open the two locked instances in the Scarlet Monastery, but later on when you do Stratholme, you will need it on the Live side (more commonly known as "Strat Live") -- it's the same key, so don't discard it when you're done doing SM runs.

As for using the staff until level 50 or so.. There IS a decent staff that drops in Zul'Farrek from the Witch Doctor Zum'rah -- Zum'rah's Vexing Cane.

This item has a low drop rate, approx. 12.43% but it's a very good item -- +10 to int and to stamina -- with an added +21 to healing and/or damage spells, making it nice for Resto druids, Priests, Shadow Priests, Mages, and Locks. ;)

For those wondering where to go after the Illusionary Rod or the Hypnotic Blade from the Scarlet Monastery, this is a good option.

I usually start doing ZF around level 42, although the five main quests are obtainable at level 40 (check under Zul'Farrek for the quests in that area) it can be rather hard to get a group at that level unless it's a guild group.

I obtained the staff for my first character and will be going after it for the one of the alts I'm working on (Shadow Priest) in 4-6 levels.. Zum'rah's Vexing Cane can be equipped at level 42, and so it's a good bridge between the Illusionary Rod and later item obtainable/usuable in the level 50's range.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Ive soloed him with my druid at 38
hes not that hard
just watch out for his AoE effects
and he gives off a "calling card" or whatever when hes about ready to do a big one

take this time to step away and heal yourself, bandage, whatever...make sure you take some mana potions and health potions

they help considerabley

Commentaire de Allakhazam

he doesn't have much health but he has some very powerful spells same as all casters.

From what I know here's what he casts:

AOE Silence
Polymorph
Arcane Explosion
Mana Shield
At 50% or so he'll cast a Pyroblast-like spell that does an incredible amount of damage to everyone in a huge radius.

The tank should pull him to the back of the room and ranged should stand in the doorway. If there's a priest in the group he should dispel any Polymorph or Silence.

The staff has dropped every time I've took Doan down, that's about 4-5 times now.

this is realy aggravating since no party wants to run through library. People do not want to run through library since it drops the least amount of good items, but i really need to run through library again now that i have the quest for it.

I dont beleive the 40% on staff anymore, 15 sm runs, dropped once

Commentaire de Allakhazam

You can stealth all the way to Doan and like said before the 2 monk guards at the door aggro you when you attack him. You need to kill the 2 monks which stinks for a druid because our DPS stinks and they flee.

There is a wandering mob in the hallway that will need to be killed then kill both monks. Most likely they will flee and cause adds but kill the monks at all costs. Yes you die but the doorway is cleared then.

Doan was cake for me at 46.
Sucky DPS making it harder for us like always :)

Commentaire de Allakhazam

i think it is just ppl being unlucky i mean i remember the staff dropping 2 outta 3 times for me but the chapeau in the cath run didnt drop until the 13th run. Its not like if u didnt get the staff the first few times the chances of getting the staff get better. Its still stuck at 40% so just consider urself really unlucky if it has only dropped once after 15 sm runs

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I did this guy like 8 times before the Illusionary rod dropped... and when it dropped is was lvl52 and soloing him and had much better gear...
I guess i was unlucky when lower lvl :P

Commentaire de Allakhazam

At 42 as a druid, I was able to prowl all the way to Doan and solo him easily. So if there are any 40ish druids that want an Ill Rod and you don't want to group for it, or you can't find one, or you're bored and want to solo Doan, it's not difficult.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Is this guy not high enough to drop any epics?

Commentaire de Allakhazam

stupid question : which 1 of the 3 instances is he in.

Edited, Wed Apr 20 01:20:49 2005

Commentaire de Allakhazam

i believe it. 5 runs and teh dagger showed up the first time. the druid, w/o thinking... rolled for the dagger. :p. The loot was on need b4 greed and every1 was cheated by it. every1.

any1 know how to change the chances of getting the dagger. ive noticed that a group with a 47+ (or a 45+, or a 41 avge lvls, i dont know) increases the chances of dropping the staff and not the dagger.

I could only be guessing, but i dont know. all i know is that it's too easy to be spotted stealthed (yes, i maxed out deception). If anyone does anything group wise that they KNOW increases the chances of getting the dagger, i really really would like to know.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

I'm a lvl 44 NE Rogue and I can stealth through all of the crowds to this guy, including the two bodyguards outside of his chambers. I was just wondering if anyone around my lvl has successfully solo'd this guy. He is immune to cheap shot and any other immobilizing effect, making it almost impossible for me to get a backstab off him.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Where is he? I did SM but didn't encounter him.

Commentaire de Allakhazam

If I'm not mistaken he casts his fire wave spell when he's down to about 50%.

So make sure everyone is healed when he gets there, otherwise.. :[

Commentaire de Allakhazam

Duo'd with a 47 Hunter, and me, a 46 Druid last night, twice. Got the staff on the first try. Hunter, my husband, decides he wants one too so we go back-and got the dagger. He is using it in his off-hand in dual wield now, but he really wants the staff, so we will be going back often until he gets it!
As a druid, I hit Farie Fire and Moonfire, then I went cat, spammed rake until I had 4 or 5 points on him then Ferocious Bite, then spam rake again. He was running around like crazy and we took him down pretty easy. Hunter used Viper sting and his cat helped too(though on the second run, the cat got sheeped-luckily it was her and not me!).
And I am *loving* this staff!

WOAH I had no idea Mindbenderloop was a .01% drop! I got that my second time through the inst!

I'm a 38 rogue. Do you think I can solo him easily enough? I obviously can sneak to him easily, but I don't know about the fight. AE seems pretty quick to trigger, so it would be hard to get a kick in there. Let me know what you think.

Edit: I just found out that after 3/22's patch, the two guards outside are linked to him as well... looks like no then. Plus, his drops have been nerfed. I'm going to knock around his thugs for awhile then! :)
