Hog’s turn! I leveled Hogit to 70, and I also leveled his blacksmithing and engineering to 375 without mining! I relied on materials from Tinder the Gnome Mage, and my bank account.
Hog the Gnome Rogue has been my miner for a long time now and I’ve finally been getting around to leveling him. Hog and Hogness the Dwarf Priest make a pretty good team in Outlands. Of course Hogness is shadow which means Hog uses a lot of bandages, but what can you expect!

In our first successful Serpentshrine Cavern kill we sent the Lurker Below far below, the ground, and killed him until he was dead. Whoever thought up the method of summoning the Lurker must have had a grudge against raiders. You need at least 300 fishing skill and even then I recommend about 350. The Lurker will spawn randomly after a successful fish. The more raiders you have fishing the greater chance you have of him spawning, but sometimes it takes forever. We worked on this guy for a while until everyone was able to survive the spouts and ads. It’s another one of those pretty easy fights once you get it. He dropped a Mallet of the Tides which is a pretty good tanking weapon. I’ll probably try to get one at some point. At least this one went to a Dwarf, grats Snowfallen!

Magtheridon once ruled Outlands until Illidan arrived and dethroned him. Magtheridon was given to the fel orcs of Hellfire Citadel who imprisoned him. Illidan has been using Magtheridon’s blood to create more fel orcs. If you have run through the Blood Furnace instance you would have heard Magtheridon shouting from below. “Vermin! Leeches! Take my blood and choke on it!”
On this day we organized a raid to end his suffering. Magtheridon begins the fight banished for two minutes once you disrupt the fel orcs spell. He cats a deadly blast nova which must be interrupted with the fel orc’s manticron cubes. Once the cube teams are organized the fight lasts a good ten minutes if you can survive the ceiling collapsing. The Magtheridon encounter is the closest thing to an Onyxia fight yet, the trash is minimal and you can be in and out within thirty minutes if your team is focused.
