Helix Gearbreaker

Helix Gearbreaker the Carpenter is the second boss of Deadmines.

Helix Gearbreaker is in charge of building the mast of the Defias Juggernaught. He and his fellow goblins that are working for the Defias Brotherhood are considered traitors to the Bilgewater Cartel and the Horde. According to Vanessa Vancleef, Helix is unlike other rogues; He seems to have a fear of the shadows, spiders specifically, and prefers to fight in the light.

''Formerly a craftsman in the Bilgewater Cartel, Helix was offered a sum eclipsing anything he would ever make as a nameless Horde engineer to ply his trade for the Defias Brotherhood. He was quick to accept the job and renounce his former loyalties... just as any resourceful goblin would.''

Helix is riding atop of his Lumbering Oaf. The Oaf will melee and will once in a while grab a random player and crash him into the wall. Helix will throw Sticky Bombs which will explode after a while. The Lumbering Oaf may occasionally throw Helix onto a random player and before departing from the player, Helix will implant a Chest Bomb. Players must stay away from the bomb as it will give massive Fire damage to everyone in a six yard radius. During all of this, four members of Helix's Crew will be above the players on an overhead log. Each crew member will periodically throw a Sticky Bomb onto the ground below near a random player. Players should obviously stay away from all bombs at all times.

Phase 2 begins after the Lumbering Oaf is killed. Helix will jump onto the face of a random party member, punching him in the face, giving him melee damage. He will rapidly throw Sticky Bombs, so the ridden player must move around so that the group can continue DPSing Helix without being hit by bombs. Every ten seconds Helix will jump onto someone else, but before departing the player he will leave a Chest Bomb on him. During all of this, four members of Helix's Crew will be above the players on an overhead log. Each crew member will periodically throw a Sticky Bomb onto the ground below near a random player. Players should obviously stay away from all bombs at all times.

• The similarity of Helix's aggro quote is presumably in homage to one of the original Deadmines bosses, Rhahk'Zor.
• On a related note, he is also very similar to Sneed, the boss of the Deadmines' original Mast Room. He, too, was a small goblin that rode aback something much larger.
