Klinfran the Crazed Klinfran the Crazed is a level 60 elite felguard summoned for an epic quest for hunter s . He ' s in a human form called Franklin the Friendly unless you come to bother him with the quest . Strategy . Guide . The key to beating this demon is to never engage him in melee combat while he is frenzied ( red ) . There are two ways to do this . He may simply be kited using Aspect of the Cheetah , Concussive Shot , Serpent Sting , and Rank - 1 Arcane Shot . Due to Klinfran ' s high hit points , this takes a long time and uses a lot of mana . Bring several Major Mana Potion if you wish to attempt this method . A better choice is to melee him . Simply hit him with Wing Clip when he is ready to frenzy , then run away until he frenzies . Once he does , hit him with Scorpid Sting and an Auto Shot , and melee him again . When running away from him , " strafe " sideways while facing him . This will keep you from being dazed . If he hits you in the back , he can daze you even when he hits for only one point of damage . Timing is key . You must Wing Clip him and run early , before he frenzies . If he crits while frenzied , he can kill you in two hits . However , you must Wing Clip him late enough that he will still be slowed when he frenzies . Remember that hitting him early with Scorpid Sting is just a waste of mana . The easiest way to time the frenzies is to count the number of hits with your weapon . A slow weapon will allow you three hits before he frenzies . This timing takes practice . Klinfran can and will parry your Wing Clip . Therefore , time your Clip early enough that when it misses or gets parried , you have enough time for another attempt . If the second Wing Clip misses , or if he otherwise frenzies while in melee range , fire a Scatter Shot to stun him , run away , and hit him with Scorpid Sting . If your first Wing Clip hits , you can stay in melee range for another hit , then run away to Sting him . If you run away too early , he may Evade before he frenzies . To prevent this , hit him with a Rank - 1 Arcane Shot as you run away . If the Wing Clip wears off before he frenzies there is a great danger of him running inside of your Scorpid Sting minimum range , frenzying , and killing you . If this happens , hit him with Concussive Shot and continue to run away from him until he frenzies . If you don ' t land the Concussive Shot , you ' ll have to use Scatter Shot . If Klinfran is frenzied in melee range and you can ' t fire a Scatter Shot , you can save the fight by using Magic Dust to put him to sleep , run to range , and bandage . Wait a few seconds for your mana to regenerate , then re - open combat with an Aimed Shot and a Scorpid Sting . As an absolute last resort , Feign Death to escape and reset the fight . Given how long this fight goes , it ' s painful to watch him go back up to full health , but it ' s better than dying . So , a typical sequence for this fight is as follows : A Demonslaying Enchant on your melee weapon is very useful in this fight , as it will proc a random stun , allowing you to get some free hits in from melee or range . Keep in mind that your Scorpid Sting will only " remove " his frenzy effect . It will not prevent the frenzy from happening . You must wait until he turns red before you sting him . In particular , if he is stunned with a Freezing Trap , Demonslaying proc , or Scatter Shot , he will not frenzy . You must wait until the stun breaks , at which point he will typically frenzy immediately . That is the time to sting him . Even if you aren ' t watching him on your screen as you run away , you can detect when he frenzies . There is a sound effect , and all of his debuffs except for Wing Clip disappear . Also keep in mind that his frenzy works like any spell with a 15 - second cooldown . If he ' s been frenzied for ten seconds when you hit him with Scorpid Sting , he ' s going to frenzy again in five seconds . Watch out for this so you ' re not surprised when he does it . Due to Klinfran ' s high hit points , this fight takes a long time . It is easy to run out of mana . Wear + SPI and + mana / 5sec gear . Consumables such as Major Mana Potion , Night Dragon ' s Breath , Mageblood Potion , and even Brilliant Mana Oil can help a lot . You may also wish to refrain from using any of your spells except Scorpid Sting and Wing Clip . Consumables that increase melee attack power , especially an Elixir of Demonslaying , will speed up the fight and require you to use less mana . If you do have enough mana available , an opening sequence of Aimed Shot , Concussive Shot , and Freezing Trap or Frost Trap can remove a good chunk of his health before you engage in melee . If you are good enough at timing his frenzies and have lots of + HIT gear , you can use Rank 1 Wing Clip instead of Rank 3 to save some mana . Use + STA buffs and equipment to get your hit points to at least 3900 . This will allow you to survive two full hits , even if one of them crits . If you do get hit twice while Klinfran is frenzied , the fight is over . Feign Death and try again . Activate Klinfran on the road west of the ramp up to Blackrock Mountain . There is a long stretch of road where you can run around and fight him free of interference from other mobs . Patch 2 . 0 . 1 attempts . As of patch 2 . 0 . 1 , Scorpid Sting no longer weakens Klinfran the Crazed . Strategy I used : Followed Klinfran ( Franklin the Friendly ) to a spot that has a relatively flat surface in the mountains . This area is just south of the strategy video listed at the top of the page . After activating Klinfran from his human state , make sure to lay a freezing trap . You open up with Aimed Shot . Do not put any DoTs on him ! When he hits the 1st Freezing Trap , you can then back up to max range , lay another trap at a different spot , and lead him to the newly set trap . Even if he is in Frenzy mode , the trap will still hold him . By the time he releases from the freezing trap , or you shoot him out of it , the cooldown on the freezing trap spell should be close to finishing . I was able to kite him around this area in this fashion without getting hit once by him . Another method of killing Klinfran ( by a hunter from Aerie Peak ) is to use nothing but 3 key abilities ( 4 if you count auto shot ) , adding multi - shot / Arcane shot when mana allows : Concussion shot , Scatter shot , and Freezing Trap . For the non - MM hunters out there ( there are still some left ? ! ? ! ) , the above strat can be modified to a kite / trap strategy so that you never have to scatter . Also , be very careful with the new auto attack function - you really need to turn off your autoshot far more often now than you ever used to . Initiate combat on the road because he has an unpleasant habit of bugging on geometry and resetting . Use Rank 1 Arcane Shot - it can crit for around 800 and only costs 22 mana . Do this with Cheetah or if you have another hunter with you , have them turn on Pack so you can run with Hawk . Going back and forth like this down a small stretch of road kept him from bugging and resetting as he did on a straight kite . Suggested potions : 1x Demonslaying , 1x Mongoose , 1x Major Mana ( using Arcane Rank 1 , you shouldn ' t need a mana pot till he ' s at 20 % ish ) . Don ' t forget the Nightfin Soup or a pocket Paladin . If the above strategies don ' t work , there is a more barebones method that works nicely , as long as you time everything properly . This strategy primarily involves your highest rank Serpent Sting and Arcane Shot Rank 1 , along with Freezing Trap and Aspect of the Cheetah ; make sure you get him to transform while he ' s on the road , then run to max distance towards Dreadmaul Rock . When he transforms , fire off an Arcane Shot and turn to run [ make sure Aspect of the Cheetah is on ] . Using either kiting method , run along the road while keeping Klinfran ' s attention with Rank 1 Arcane Shot , but don ' t use Serpent Sting until he frenzies , as he ' ll remove the debuff if it ' s on before . Hit him with a Serpent Sting right after he frenzies and continue to pull him along the path towards Dreadmaul Rock . You won ' t kill him on the first pass , so when you feel you are drawing too close to the end of the path , either stop Serpent Sting or hit him with a Scorpid Sting and place a freezing trap , firing at him as he runs at you [ stop autoshot so you don ' t break the trap ] . Run around Klinfran and get some good distance on him , but you can wait until the trap breaks on its own to regenerate mana if needed [ NOTE : this might not work if you have Clever Traps , I ' m not sure if he ' ll stay tagged to you through the entire trap ] . When the trap breaks , repeat the same process of using Serpent Sting after he frenzies whenever possible , turn back around if necessary , and eventually you ' ll get him down . No consumables are required for this method .
