Neltharion's Lair

Dungeon GuideRetail

Boss abilities and loot tables from Blizzard's own journal, boss by boss.

The Earth Warder Neltharion, later known as Deathwing, once called this cavern home. Since his fall, the drogbar that once worshipped the great dragon built their capital within this ancient lair. Now, Dargrul, chieftain of the drogbar, rallies a massive army within these depths. Bolstered by the Hammer of Khaz'goroth, this army will surge from the mountainside if left unchecked, devastating Highmountain and threatening the security of all Azeroth.

Written notes for this instance are a later milestone. Everything on this page comes from Blizzard's journal data.
