Foe Reaper 5000

Foe Reaper 5000 is an elite harvest golem and the third boss of Deadmines. It is an upgraded model of the Foe Reaper 4000 golem that can be found roaming Westfall.

Defias engineers have spent many long days perfecting a new harvester model on the Foe Reaper 4000 unit. Once it is completed, the brotherhood believes this mechanized terror will be able to slice through Stormwind's armored soldiers like a scythe though wheat.

Strategy
Foe Reaper 5000 will occasionally cast Overdrive. This works a bit like Lord Marrowgar's Bone Storm: It runs to a random position while dealing AoE damage. It will also cast Harvest, which works somewhat similarly to Ick's Pursuit. It will target a random unit (who may or not be the tank), wind up a five-second cast, and start running to that player's location when the cast is complete. The Foe Reaper will do some damage to units between its location and the marked spot on the ground. Any players at the marked location when the Foe Reaper gets there will take large amounts of damage, so run away! At roughly 40% health, the Foe Reaper will enrage, gaining Safety Restrictions Off-Line, which increases its damage dealt by 100%

Heroic Mode
At the top of the room is a prototype reaper that can be controlled by a player. One of the DPS should pick this up before starting the fight. During the fight, adds will appear which do very high AOE damage. The player in charge of the prototype should pick up the adds and tank them in a far corner of the room to keep them from wiping the party. One way to do this is to have the main tank stand near the ramp at the entrance, while the prototype tank goes to the other side of the room. It is not necessary to kill the adds before the boss dies.

Loot
In heroic Mode, Foe Reaper 5000 can be "mined" by Engineers with a minimum skill of 530, thus, only Gnome engineers can take advantage of this, until either a patch changes this or the next expansion is released which raises everyone's skill cap.
