Collect 3 Pristine True Iron Ores and then defeat Gruul in Blackrock Foundry in Normal difficulty or higher.

The Iron Price requires you to collect 3 Pristine True Iron Ores from the ceiling of Gruul's room in Blackrock Foundry, then defeat Gruul, all on Normal difficulty or higher.

1

Enter Blackrock Foundry

Enter Blackrock Foundry on Normal difficulty or higher and make your way to Gruul's room. Upon entering, look up at the ceiling to spot the three Pristine True Iron Ores arranged in a small triangle formation around the center ring.

2

Position Gruul at entrance

Begin the fight and position Gruul at the entrance of his room, facing toward the center. Place world markers on the floor beneath the two farthest ceiling ores so you know exactly where to stand when his Overhead Smash is incoming.

3

Get launched by Overhead Smash

Stand between Gruul and the target ore but do not move so close that Gruul begins walking toward the center of the room. When Gruul begins his Overhead Smash, allow it to hit you directly — the knockup launches you toward the ceiling, and at the peak of your trajectory you can click a Pristine True Iron Ore. The farther you are from Gruul, the higher you are launched, so use the entrance position to reach the two farthest ores.

4

Collect the third ore

After collecting the two farthest ores from the entrance position, move Gruul to the opposite side of the room to reach the third ore, but do not move him too far or the knockup will be too fast to click the ore at the peak. Note that Overhead Smash shares a cooldown with Petrifying Slam, so do not expect a Smash immediately after Gruul casts Petrifying Slam.

5

Defeat Gruul

Once all three Pristine True Iron Ores have been collected from the ceiling, defeat Gruul to complete The Iron Price and earn 10 achievement points.

Tips

  • Overhead Smash launches you higher the farther you are from Gruul, so positioning at the entrance gives you the height needed for the two farthest ores.

  • Overhead Smash shares a cooldown with Petrifying Slam — if Gruul casts Petrifying Slam, wait through the cleave before repositioning for the next ore attempt.

  • Stack your raid or position yourself just below an ore before Overhead Smash is cast, since the ability targets a random raid member and needs to connect near the ore's floor position.
