Solo Twin Emperors AQ40 as a Warrior

Hi guys!
As the topic says I were solo'ing the Twin Emperors today in AQ40, but as I only hitted Vek'nilash I could only loot his corpse. Vek'lor is - as we all know - immune to physical damage, so is it impossible for me to loot his corpse as a Warrior, since I don't have any magical damage attacks?
I need the belt from Vek'nilash to complete my transmog, so this is kinda sad for me!
Any suggestions? Or am I forced to group up with a friend?
Cheers!

Thunderclap counts.

Ummm when you kill one the other dies. I've soloed this a few times on my crappy warrior just fine. Just tunnel the dude with the sword.

Yeah, they share health pool, I know that, but I have to damage Vek'lor to loot him.
Didn't know Thunderclap would work, I'll try that next reset.
Thanks :)

I have read somewhere that Dragon Roar works too.

How about rogues? Can they hit him with poisons, or something else?

I noticed this too earlier last week. I killed the twins with by tunneling the melee twin, and I only received one epic instead of two for loot. Didn't realize it until later on that it was probably because the caster twin wasn't tagged at all during the fight, which is something you don't normally think about, especially when you don't kill the mobs prior to the twins room and you have to fight them during the fight on top of the bosses (like I did lol)

If I recall correctly you're not able to poison him because poisons proc on physical attacks which he's immune to. I imagine
Shadow Blades
could work, though (and proc poisons for the duration).

Yeah, I forgot to clear the room before Twins too, so Second Wind saved me there, lol :)
I just killed Twins on my Rogue too, as combat. Poisons and Shadow Blades didn't work :( this is pretty sad, because I need Vek'lor for my head !

One thing you might be able to try is using
Shado-Pan Dragon Gun
. It's relatively cheap and easy to get. Or, you can get a trinket that has a similar ability

Oh yeah, that could be awesome. I'll try it out next reset :) Thanks for the tip! It's worth a try.

Odd. Any idea if Envenom works? If it does you could go Assassination, build cp on Vek'nilash and Redirect -> Envenom on Vek'lor. Edit: Unless he's immune to Redirect as well. ^_^
Just to clarify the problem is that Vek'lor isn't getting tagged, right? As in, he still dies because you kill Vek'nilash but you're not getting loot because you haven't done any damage to him. That said, darkoath's idea is probably easier if any damage is enough damage to tag him but if Envenom does work it could save you a bag slot.

Are you 100% sure that both twins are lootable? I made sure to damage the caster with all of my toons this week, and none of them were able to loot the corpse of the caster. (Diseases damaged with dk, faerie fire damaged with druid, thunder clapped with warrior.)

I've done AQ40 more than 4 but less than 8 times in the last few weeks, (twice after the C'thun change) and every time I've looted The Twins, I get both sets of drops.
This is as a paladin, but still, with AE Loot, if you're getting Vek'lor's Diadem and Vek'nilash's Circlet with your loot window, you know you're looting correctly.

I'm pretty sure I was getting that stuff, but one of the twins wasn't lootable.

Because of low dps i asked my friend to help. Both of them was lootable.
p.s. Me - feral druid. He caster - warlock.

They don't seem to share health exactly, when I've soloed them on my death knight Vek'nilash usually has much lower health than Vek'lor at the end, though lor dies anyways. As long as Vek'lor is less than 100% and you've damaged him directly at least once, he should be lootable. If he gets healed to 100%, you'll need to damage him directly again for it to count from what I've seen.

I solo'd em today, use a Gurth and whirlwind during the fight to pop some tentacles. The tentacles for me always hit the magic guy, got to loot both while tunneling Vek. (The whirlwind normally crit kills the little bugs and makes them pop)
