Dragon Isles

Raid GuideRetail

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

Once, the skies of the Dragon Isles were filled with the dragons of the five flights. But thousands of years ago the dragonflights left to defend Azeroth from those that threatened the world. Recently, however, the Isles have reawakened and called their long-absent caretakers to return. They were not alone--four great primal dragons have also arrived: Basrikron, wielder of earth and shale; Strunraan, master of electric tempests; Bazual, manipulator of flame; and Liskanoth, mistress of ice and cold.

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