Utgarde Pinnacle is a level 80, 25 man raid and is one of Utgarde Keep's three wings. Utgarde Keep is located at the center of Howling Fjord in Northrend. https://www.wowhead.com/cata/zone=495
Just zoom in and read the center of the map. Utgarde Keep.

Kommentar von Enugma

This zone is actually Utgarde Pinnacle, the raid instance of Utgarde Keep.

Some zones show up as <name*UNUSED*> on Wowhead for some reason.

This information is incorrect. Utgarde Pinnacle is NOT a 25-man Raid Dungeon, it is a 5-man Dungeon suited for Level 80 players. See Achievements for clarification.

Kommentar von 97468

just to be straight: Utgarde Pinnacle is an raid dungeon in utgarde keep and the heroic achievement means the 25 man version of the dungeon,while the normal is the 10 man version

What reputation does this instance give, if any ?

Kommentar von 1966

Meeting Stone for this instance can be found at 57, 48. It's outdoors and is visible from a flying mount. Entrance is nearby too.

Kommentar von alorathepriest

Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle awards just under 2000 Rep.

Kommentar von 241540

Non-heroic Utgarde Pinnacle awards approximately 550 rep, if you clear absolutely everything

Kommentar von 32659

Can you enter this place before you reach level 80? Or is 80 the requirement?

Kommentar von 259231

At the beginning of Utgarde Pinnacle you'll find a seemingly novelty treasure room where your clear the first 5 trash mobs in the instance. Around the room are several skeletons.

As stated in the Collectors Edition DVD by one of Blizzards Dev's. There is an Easter Egg in this treasure room.

After entering the instance and passing the dwarf quest giver. Look to your left as the treasure room opens up. There you will see a robotic arm on a base within a glass cover. This arm looks to be a joke reference to 'Terminator' the movies, where in one of the 3 Terminator films they seek out to destroy a similar robotic arm.

In Norse mythology utgarde was the place where the giants where exiled too.
Many bosses, quests and dungeons etc. in WotLK actually refers to the norse mythology, an example is King Ymiron in this instance who probably refers to Ymir the frost giant and creator of the giant race which's corpse were used to found the world.

Norse mythology trivia taken from wikipedia and other sources:

Utgards (Útgarðar) - arenas surrounding a stronghold of the giants. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utgard

Skadi (Skaði) - daughter of Thjazi, one-time wife of the god Njörðr and stepmother of Freyr and Freyja. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skadi

Svala - common name with origin in old Norse, can be translated as a bird. http://www.aboutnames.ch/HWS.htm

Ymir - a giant, was the founder of the race of frost giants and an important figure in Norse cosmology. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ymir

As a resto druid this instance is hell!
every boss encounter has loads of spike damage (except the first) we wiped like butter >.<

Notes for normal: Just finished this instance up with:

80 tank
80 shaman (healer)
79 shaman (dps)
79 rogue
80 hunter

No problem at all for a high level group, and we could probably have taken it easily at lower levels with the appropriate strategy. The most dangerous boss is definitely Skadi and his whirlwind of doom! See my notes on him for normal strategies. The trick is to set up the event properly, and have the tank use appropriate damage mitigation and taunt skills at the right time.

Kommentar von Khanor

the collectors edition dvd says they hid something in the treasure room at the start - "you'll know it when you see it"...

theres a little terminator hand sticking up out of the gold piles by the entrance, just seems kind of neat to me :P

Kommentar von 64664

So if the minimum level is 75....and you wear a tabard of a faction, do you still get reputation then?

Kommentar von 317544

This is a very easy instance. I cleared it today, under 45min, with:

Lvl 79 Paladin (tank, me)
Lvl 80 Priest (healer, a good one)
Lvl 80 Mage (DPS, didn't speak English)
Lvl 79 Deathknight (tank)

Basically, only four people whereof two where tanks, without even being close to a wipe ...and we didn't tag the mobs.

Only the third boss, Skadi the Ruthless, offered a challange, tactical wise.

Kommentar von Ashaniel

4 manned this dungeon with a 80 warrior tank 80 priest 80 DK and 76 destruction lock. took 3 tries for last boss but we did take him down. first try kill on boss with the dragon : ) have fun

Kommentar von Wisdomsword

Utgarde Pinnacle is the second of Utgarde Keep's two 5-man wings. It is a level 80 instance, and you need to be at least level 75 to enter it. The instance has its own meeting stone at the top level of the keep.
On Heroic, it awards approximately 2000 reputation.

Kommentar von Adulruna

Easy?

On normal, ridiculously such, especially when pitted against, say, the Oculus (for first timers).

On heroic... not so much.

Kommentar von Kowebunga

Sash of Jordan dropped for me in reg UP

Kommentar von 281025

can anyone tell me what requires there are to a tank to be enable to do the the instance on heroic plzz? :)

Kommentar von airtonix

pro-tip for the healers on skadi :

stay on the right side over the chain link fence.
dont stand near the machines at the end,
instead stand on the last pole of the chain link fence.
make sure your tank and dps are not retarded enough to hide from you in the room.

reasons not to go in the room or hang round up the end :

adds spawn in the room...gibbed,
more adds...gibbed,
skadi dropps from his mount to whirlwind and wtfpwn your healing face....gibbed,

Kommentar von 136440

This has apparently been two-manned on Heroic.

Sufjan and Corwind of <Beasts of Unusual Size> did it, both of them paladins.

Kommentar von 466008

in the next patch the maps changing around a bit, im thinking that The new area in utgarade pinnacle is a watch tower overlooking utgarade Plateau, you get in after you kill king Ymiron, hes inside with a crystal in his chest... "That last room was mearly a set-back! did you honestly belive wed make a dungion this straightforward? oh no no no, weve put stepping stones up to this much larger room! those necromancers reanimated me fast... and this time, you will not be farming us all for emblems and skadi's mount."

Kommentar von 519720

Upcoming patch change(s):

* Players only need 3 harpoons to bring down Skadi’s drake during the encounter. (Down from 5)
* Svala Sorrowgrave now casts Rituals of Sword only once. (Down from 3)

Kommentar von oneeighthundred

This instance contains a FedEx Arrow. Next time you're in Gortok Palehoof's room, ask your group:

"Did you know that there is a boat above us?"

Kommentar von 448996

Today i ran random heroic which happened to be Utgarde Pinnacle. After killing Skadi the Ruthless we got both achievements connected to him and also he dropped an item not mentioned in the list. It was Reins of the Blue Proto-Drake.

Kommentar von Gimroth

Tankable as a lvl 77 (Warrior). Lower would not be recommendable due to expertise requirements and level differences between you and mobs.

Kommentar von Tigerstar214

So some of WotLK is based on a little bit of lore. Intresting.... Very interesting.

Kommentar von 560464

Is it possible to do this instance (on Normal mode) with only 2 people? Namely a hunter (survival/BM) and prot warrior? My dungeon partner and I are looking at getting WotLK and we normally 2 man everything. I wanted to get a feel of how the 5-man normal stuff at level 80 for level 80's compares with the level 70 instances for level 70's.... if that makes any sense....

Kommentar von lockbox

Tired of tanking this instance for the millionth time? Spice up your Utgarde Pinnacle run today! In the room with Gortok Palehoof, there's an orb which, when activated, animates four minibosses and then Gortok himself for combat.

Activate the orb and... run away. Continue through the instance as you normally do. The four minibosses will activate and chase you through the instance. It's good fun. See if you can reach King Ymiron before the fourth, third or even second miniboss reaches you.

I myself tanked Skadi alongside the first miniboss, and Ymiron along with the third. It was especially challenging when, during Ymiron's stuns, I had a second boss laying into me. If you or your healer can't remove the stun before it expires, there's a high chance you'll die and subsequently wipe the party.

Final note: it's a very, very good idea to get the go-ahead from your healer before trying this. It's also a very good idea to make sure you grab threat on the minibosses as they come towards you.

Also worth mentioning, the healer (Disc Priest) and I (Prot Paladin) knew each other well (we were well aware of each others' limitations.) Additionally, our equipment was a mix of 251/264 justice point and ICC gear.

Kommentar von Xbander

I'm very surprised nobody has mentioned this yet, but there are some cultural references among the King's Hoard at the entrance.

If you look to your left you will see a statue straight out of the poem 'Ozymandias'. Not that many WoW players are familiar with Percy Bysshe Shelley, but it's a huge attention grabber to those who are. And it's quite clever, yet foreboding, that King Ymiron would have something like this in his possession, knowing how the poem goes.

A little further down to the right you will see a large chest resembling the Ark of the Covenant. No explanation needed there.

Kommentar von oneru

For some reason, the reputation tabards from main factions work here!

I was grinding Utgarde Pinnacle on my 85 questgeared feral druid for a friend who needed Frostweave Cloth and was surprised to see I got Bilgewater reputation.
15 reputation per Vrykul.
30 reputation per Scourge Hulk
300 reputation per boss.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Kommentar von QueenTrimyla

What is the minimum requirement to even enter this instance , I am looking to find the elder in there and wondering if its like SM where it would say 32 but you could be boosted by an 80 at lvl 21 :) , If anyone could try this out/answer i would be much happy:)

Kommentar von MsPhelix

I may be repeating info some else already provided but to be clear:
The entrance is on the North side of Utgarde Keep just under the highest level with closed doors.
There are several screenshots that will help you find it: try Darkgroom's and Tjikke's screenshots.
