WHERE DO YOU GET THIS? I've seen it used by some mobs, yet I cannot find the boss with it...

Try "Jowl Yawpyawl" (Grawl) in Witman's Folly or "Kor Stonewrath" (Giant) in Snake's Dance. You may need to bring "bait" (like the warrior henchies), as it's more likely for them to use Earth Shaker if more than one person is surrounding them.

The grawl in Witman's Folly did not use earth shaker in the 5 times that I encountered him. I couldn't find the giant in Snake Dance, in fact the only heroes in Snake Dance were griffins. Suggestions?

Lol it should be elite. I don't have this yet but i WANT it. I'm an ele warrior and combining this with aftershock would be INSANE.

This with aftershock is extermly underwhelming. Sure knocking down everyone and getting aftershock damage is fine and dandy but the 10 adrenline means long recharge time and finding groups of people standing next to each other in PvP to even use earthshaker on is near impossible.

in tombs i use this/aftershock + a few other knockdowns when im not palying a protection monk, i would say 80% of groups either bunch close enough to get this off on 3 or 4 people, or they spread out so far the cant coordinate attacks, either of which is fine with me, also i dont use it for some huge dmg combo, its great to just target a mage and use a knockdown everytime he tries to get a high dmg long cast spell off, and usualy i use frenzy because there is never anyone attacking me

Suggestions? Thats because "Jowl Yawpyawl" (Grawl) is not actually in witman's folly,SASAKLO Yipyawl(who has victory is mine) is in Witman's its a common mixup

I think I know where to get it. Unfortunately the secret will be revealed now. If you know where Dreadnoughts Drift is you will know where to look. At the end of Dreadnought's you come to the top of Snake Dance, above Camp Rankor. There is a boss named Kor Stonewrath, in a little nitch right after the rez shrine, a Tundra Giant. I have't seen him use the skill yet, but the Tundra Giants around him have been. So I would assume this would be the guy; warrior boss. Also there is another one who switches with him, Thul Boulderrain, who is a ranger boss, also a tundra giant. However he looks like a warrior boss, he is glowing yellow. He has the elite Punishing Shot. Skills which Kor uses: Giant Stomp, Beserker Stance, Crushing Blow, Earthshaker (?). Thul Boulderrain skills known: Frozen Soil, Punishing Shot. Please guru add this to your list of known places to get skills.

it doesnt need to be elite you have to be in combat for 10 seconds if you use for great justice and it does the same thing as wirlwind but withouth the damage

Whirlwind is an air spell, only works on attackers, and costs energy. Some things that may not appeal to warriors. Earthshaker, however, is a valuable Tombs skill, and a debatably useful PvE skill.

and raging i searched snake dance. he wasnt in that little nitch eiether. ill try again. i THINK he might be in a different zone because i searched all of snake dance twice and he wasnt there so maybe he's in dreadnaught's drift. that sounds like a warrior place ;P

Hey, does the AoE part of this skill do damage? If they don't, it shouldn't be elite.

It's elite because it's AoE and doesn't cause loss of all adrenaline. It's a very strong elite indeed.

Hammer wars need some love The AoE KD is powerful enough. If you want damage, try [crude swing] or [whirlwind attack].

with the spirit that makes all knockdowns last for 4 seconds. Use Earthshaker to knock them down, lets you easiliy get off crude swing and whirlwind attack before they get up again. Earthshaker is now recharged. You can keep a whole group on their butts and dying pretty easily if you get this going.

No matter were you use ES, PvP or PvE it is an aweasome skill to use.

In PvE take a ranger hero with [Infuriating heat] and another hero with [dark fury] to spam you head off with ES lolling at mobs lying around you unable to do a thing.

For damage you should always have [savanah heat] alongsides ES, [whirlwind attack] or [crude swing] for you to do massive damages while the mobs are stuck on the ground, [splinter weapon] and [ancestor's rage] only make the thing deadlyer.
