How to farm it, step by step
  1. 1.Where to stand: Start on the open plain with nothing behind you.
  2. 2.Pull: Run through the boars until five to eight follow.
  3. 3.Group them up: Lead them in a line behind you and turn.
  4. 4.Abilities: Frost Nova as they bunch up, step out of melee range, then channel Blizzard over the pack; Improved Blizzard and Permafrost keep them crawling through it. Cone of Cold and a second Frost Nova (after its cooldown or Cold Snap) cover the last seconds. Paladins: Consecration under the pack, Holy Shield, and Avenger's Shield if you have it.
  5. 5.Kite: The plain is open: kite in a wide arc.
  6. 6.Finish: Arcane Explosion or Cone of Cold.
  7. 7.Recover: Drink conjured water and eat between pulls; save Evocation and a mana gem for a pull that runs long. Rebuff Frost or Ice Armor and Ice Barrier before the next pull.
  8. 8.Avoid: Shattered Hand Guards, Berserkers and Grenadiers patrol in from their camp; Marauding Crust Bursters surface from the ground.
