How Did He Get Up There?
Find a way to get the Hozen Clinger to let go in Stormstout Brewery on any difficulty.
How Did He Get Up There? is a 10-point achievement earned in Stormstout Brewery by knocking the Hozen Clinger off his perch above the banner on the second floor using a Big Ol' Hammer and airborne Hoplings or Boppers.
Collect a Big Ol' Hammer
After defeating Ook-Ook, head up the stairs toward Hoptallus and kill Boppers and Hoplings along the way — they drop a Big Ol' Hammer, which at least one player must pick up.
Locate the Hozen Clinger
On the balcony above Ook-Ook's room, find the banner on the second floor and look up — the Hozen Clinger hangs directly above it. Use the macro /target Hozen Clinger then /script SetRaidTarget("target",4) to mark him if needed.
Group Mobs Under the Banner
Round up at least 5 Hoplings and Boppers from the gauntlet and position them directly beneath the Hozen Clinger at the banner. Wait for an exploding Hopling or Bopper to appear — it will begin jumping up and down with a cast bar when about to detonate.
Smash the Exploding Mob
When the exploding mob has about 1 second left on its cast bar, use the Big Ol' Hammer on it to launch it into the air — the explosion near the Hozen Clinger will knock him loose and award the achievement.
Tips
There are unlimited attempts as long as the second boss, Hoptallus, has not been engaged, so reset the gauntlet as many times as needed.
