Hey all. Rerolled onto a new server for BC and I’m trying to get my guild some raiding experience. I saw that Azuregos is up earlier today so I plan on gathering everyone up to have a go at him. I’ve killed him multiple times on my undead priest, but with the new level cap and pallies for the horde, I have a few questions.

Would it be possible for a paladin to main tank Azuregos? My main concern is the spell reflect buff that he has. Does Seal of Righteousness, Seal of Blood, or Holy Shield get reflected? I’d assume that judging those seals would; I’ve had them reflected back at me from the defenders in Slave Pens.

Also, when I saw him ambling about this morning, he was listed as level ??. Is he still considered a level 63? Or has he been scaled up to be a level 73 boss. I’m mainly worried about bringing lower level players (58+) to help fight.

If all goes well with Azuregos, I’d also like to see if Highlord Kruul is up. My main question with him is that on Wowwiki, he’s listed to have a 1 minute enrage similar to Lord Kazzak. Is this enrage temporary like Doom Lord Kazzak or is it until we wipe like the old Lord Kazzak?

Thanks in advance!

Azuregos is a joke. he'll crush you for 1000, hit you for 500. 6-manned him the other day with 2 Warriors 2 priests and 2 Rogues.

I don't think anything spawns in Blasted Lands at all anymore, and I've gone to check a number of times.

4 World Dragons still require some NR, as those NR ticks do alot of damage per second, healers might struggle a tad if you have 6 stacks the entire fight.

Seal of Righteousness does get reflected on bosses like Pandemonius so I don't see why it wouldn't reflect on Azuregos as well. I don't think a paladin could hold aggro that well given that obstacle.

That's the damage shield, isn't it?

SoR does not reflect on mobs that have a spell reflect shield, such as the ones in Sethekk (Heroic) or Slave Pens or SV. SoV, JoV, JoR will reflect on those types of mobs, but SoR will not.

I've also never seen the boss in blasted lands and I check 3-4 times a week.

With liberal use of consecrate, I highly doubt threat would really be a problem. Wear lots of int/spell dmg gear and your tps skyrockets; no reason to stack mitigation on a boss this weaksauce.

I bet self healing you could stand toe to toe with him for a while.

Kazzak moved to Hellfire Peninsula, and was replaced around patch 2.0 by Highlord Kruul (who was essentially identical to Kazzak 1.0). Kruul randomly spawned in all sorts of places--Eastern Plaguelands, Hinterlands, outside cities, etc. To be honest, though, I don't know if he still spawns at all. I'm sure someone can confirm or deny.

Edit: Severely screwed up my original post

He's tauntable anyway.

Yeah I remember the slaughter outside org but from what I understood highlord kruul was supposed to just take his place in blasted lands.

Azuregos was 2-manned by a feral druid and a shaman on my server a few days back. Took them 1 hour and 23 minutes to down.

Just went there to test for fun, and boy is that dragon weaksauce. My tanking gear is weak (11500 ac, 10700hp, 505 def) and my blocked hits were between 300-500. He does a few spells that hit for a bit more though. I'm definitely gonna ask my healer friend to go with me there for some fun.

Edit* Found this quite amusing, a hunter on EU soloed Azuregos: http://forums.wow-europe.com/thread....67626780&sid=1
