Drak'Tharon Keep
Dungeon GuideRetailBoss abilities and loot tables from Blizzard's own journal, boss by boss.
Drak'Tharon Keep once served the Drakkari trolls as a formidable outpost at the edge of their kingdom, Zul'Drak, but a recent Scourge invasion has delivered the fortress into the Lich King's hands. The keep's fallen defenders are now the Lich King's undead minions, and they are advancing into the heart of Drakkari territory.
Written notes for this instance are a later milestone. Everything on this page comes from Blizzard's journal data.
