Do not stand in front of Tarlna to avoid his frontal cone, Colossal Blow. Healers should also be ready to use cooldowns for the raid damage portion of this ability.

Stay spread for, and be ready to heal people who are afflicted by, Savage Vines.

Just like Yalnu in The Everbloom, Tarlna will spawn a field of sproutlings during Genesis. Run over them to stamp them out.

If the sproutlings are not stamped out by running over them, they will evolve intoGiant Lasher. These adds cast Lasher Venom and should be killed quickly.

In addition to those adds, Tarlna also spawns Untamed Mandragora which should be tanked and killed. They spawn pools of venom through Noxious Spit. Don't stand in those!

Drov the RuinerStrategy

Do not stand in front of Drov during Colossal Slam and healers should be ready to use cooldowns during this for the raid damage portion of the ability.

Raid-wide damage also happens during Giga Smash, so use cooldowns or personals then as welll.

Drov will periodically cast Call of Earth which awakens Frenzied Rumbler. These Goren adds should be killed.

Do not stand in front of the Goren adds due to Acid Breath and watch out for their Crushing Charge.

RukhmarStrategy

Much like with Rukhran in Skyreach, you will have to watch out for the Piles of Ash that the boss creates.

Avoid the Piles of Ash due to Blaze of Glory. This will reignite them if you are within 5 yards of a pile.

When the boss flies in the air, healers should be ready to heal the random raid damage from Loose Quills.

Throughout the fight, Blood Feather will cause Rukhmar to spawn phoenixes that fixate on players. Run away from the phoenix that is fixated on you.

Players should kill each others phoenixes away from the Piles of Ash so they do not reignite.

Tanks will need to tank swap due to Pierced Armor and Sharp Beak.

Energized Phoenixes fixate on random players, but Depleted Phoenixes can be tanked normally.

Tanks should face the boss away from the raid at all times due to Solar Breath.

Healers will need to keep on top of the constant raid damage from Solar Radiation

Leggings of Flowing Feathers

Talongrip Spurs

Phoenixfire Legplates

Supreme Lord KazzakStrategy

Do not stand in front of Kazzak to avoid his frontal cone, Fel Breath.

Stay spread for, and be ready to heal people who are afflicted by, Mark of Kazzak.

At 66% and 33% health remaining, Supreme Lord Kazzak summons Twisted Reflections from players. Any Twisted Reflections that reach Supreme Lord Kazzak heal him significantly.

Does it seem to anyone else that the itemization on all the leather pieces is terrible? No haste anywhere, its all crit and versatility, the 2 weakest stats for rogues and druids.

Nice guide, upvoted. Would like to see some comments on tank duty too, like those "don't stand in front of such and such", does that mean tanks should move away too or soak the beating in order to prevent damage to the rest of the group? Also, stuff like the channeled abilities like Drov's Call of Earth, can they be interrupted? does the boss move while channeling?

Comment by teater

Is this similar to the way Ordos was, once a week kill, finding groups thru LFM?

Comment by Ooyeah

Where are the pvp loots!

Comment by Luniwenor

You didnt answer the most important question - what is the spawn time!

Comment by jaeryk

General chat is arguing that only one bass will be up on a server per week, respawning multiple times. Is this true? Can't find anything that confirms or denies.

Comment by jrtimmy

Lagged horribly when we were fighting Tar then the world server crashed...

Comment by pewpewx

1. Spawn Time?
2. Personal/Group Loot?

Comment by osroll

15 min respawn timer on live servers. Personal loot. Faction taggable.

Comment by Gromagrim

Great guide but quick note - We don't fight Rukhmar in Skyreach, it's Rukhran in the dungeon, her rumoured offspring. The point about similar mechanics still stands, of course.

Comment by Pfenix

Unfortunately loot drop is not guaranteed....fought Tarina the first day and received nothing for my troubles other than a measly amount of gold!

Comment by Brooklynboy

I think I'm the oldest player on Blizzard....72 years young, and World of Warcraft has helped me through loosing my wife of 40 years, heart attack, loss of my left leg, many operations, but I have a wonderful son who introduced me to WoW. I play every day. My hunter's name is Rotpus. I love this adventure, and have met many super players that have turned into friends. There was a time when my son, daughter-in-law and my two grandkids played together in our own guild. I'm hoping that will happen soon again. Was nice ''talking'' to you. Hope to see you on the battlefield.(##RESPBREAK##)16##DELIM##hatman555##DELIM##

Warlords of Draenor World Bosses

Thank you! Definitely a useful guide!

Comment by IcyDeadPeoples

I have killed both world bosses with three characters, all three I killed Drov and got gold, rerolled and got gold again. I then went and killed Tarlnia and once again on all three looting the body gave me gold, however I used a reroll token on all 3 and all 3 got a piece of loot. Could be coincidence, could be a bug or it could be intended that you get loot from one of them at least.

Comment by barbasol

Can only loot once a week, right?

Comment by capaula1

Good guide, I'll take any help I can get for battling these bosses. I like that it gives a list of loot at each level, helps to decide if I want to send an alt that needs an upgrade to do the dirty work.

Comment by 1090288

can you only get loot from one world boss once a week, meaning if you kill drov and get loot or gold and then jump to another server and kill tarl, you wont be able to loot him?

Comment by Buttfour

does anyone know when Rukhmar is available on live servers? i have not seen any groups camping him yet.

Comment by 1414027

Why does Rukhmar look exactly like my Dread Raven>

Comment by Rofyx

Rukhmar "Much like her fight in Skyreach, you will have to watch out for the Piles of Ash that the boss creates." it's not the same boss. The one in Skyreach is called Rukhran and this one is called Rukhmar :P

Comment by 1416659

After reading all the comments, I'm still at sea. When do the various lockout periods reset? Does the loot lockout apply to gold or just items? Anybody know the odds on a drop? Do the bosses really alternate or just spawn exclusively? If they alternate, is it really daily or weekly? Is Rukhmar involved in any of these lockouts?

Comment by 1391528

Will a character below 100 be eligible for loot?

Comment by DasMonx

Here is a macro to check which world bosses you have already downed.

Just paste this into chat

/run for k, v in pairs({ Tarlna = 37460, Drov = 37462, Rukhmar = 37464}) do print(format("%s: %s", k, IsQuestFlaggedCompleted(v) and "\124cff00ff00Yes\124r" or "\124cffff0000No\124r")) end

This was initially a macro somebody made that i used for pandaria world bosses. Just updated it for WoD

Comment by Ahjen

You can indeed loot Rukhmar and Tarlna / Drov in the same week. Both my wife and myself did it today and they are showing as two separate lock outs in the raid menu now and each of us were able to bonus roll on both.

Comment by Dakind420

Good one short and to the point

Comment by yzq85

As world bosses, don't forget to bring a bodyguard (for what (s)he's worth) and/or a Guardian of the Forge if you have a level 2 Forge in your Garrison.

Comment by Buffeninc

If you prefer looking at the fights and listening to the tactics of the bosses, check out my video. It explains everything you need to know about the four bosses, from achievements obtainable to the different abilities and general tactics.

I keep killing Kazzak every tuesday
i have 11 characters so i kill him 11 times a week.
Gives 1000 apexis per kill
anywhere from 6-15 felblight per kill

and Gold seems to be the most common drop for regular rolls and bonus rolls.

Every week kill him 11 times using bonus rolls each time (22 rolls) get 1 to 2 peices of gear tops, the rest is gold usually

so from my experience theres about a 9% chance i will get loot each time i kill him.

Comment by 1533006

The ilvls for Kazzak's drops have changed. I recently picked up the Studded Choker of the Accursed with a Heroic tag that was ilvl 720. The items themselves still do not reflect these changes here on Wowhead.
