Lardeur était le tout premier élite rencontré dans le jeu, c'était le monstre qui tuait le plus de joueurs de tout World of Warcraft car peu de joueurs savaient ce qu'était un élite.

C'est pour cela qu'il possède aujourd'hui un Haut Fait à son nom.(##RESPBREAK##)268##DELIM##Buuloki##DELIM##

He's an 11 elite with knockdown. Most classes could take him out solo by 13-14. Any duo at 11 could take him.

Commentaire de 6225

Excuse me , you are wrong there.

Hogger is the only lvl64 raid boss , having 7.500.000HP , a knockback attack throwing you at a huge range (something like Stormwind-Goldshire) resetting aggro. He crits tier3 tanks for 10k crits , so flask of titans is heavily recommended. Hogger has a frenzy effect named "Wrath of Hogger" which needed to be tranquilized ASAP unless you want to end up in Kalimador since it doubles damage delt and 1000x knockback range. He also has a huge array of abilities. You need approximately 500-600 people to kill him , and that's why his loot is BoE (so you can give out loot apropriately)

To sum up , his abilities are :

1)Hogger stomp : Huge Knockback Radius , no instant damage but slow fall can be really helpful ^^
2)Wrath of Hogger : Frenzy condition which needs to be traq-shot ASAP.
3)Gnomestrike : Calls to his assistance 1.000.000 lvl1 pink-haired female gnomes which will do a /dance macro if not killed , thus lagging you and wiping you. Triggered each time Hogger loses 20% of his HP.
4)Class strike : Instantly kills all of a class in a 100yard radius. Triggered every 5min (not at first pull though).
5)Deleveling Strike : Reduces a player from lvl60 to lvl1 and demotes all his epic to grays. This happens only when someone insults him by going AFK in his encounter.
6)Mighty Hogger Dance : Works as a Piccolo of the Flaming Fire , but has a 1000yard radius. It's as dangerous as Gnomestrike is.

Hogger loot table is compromised of Legendary and Artifact Equipement.

Hogger has been made legendary due to the fact that every alliance player knows him. He is the way for a lvl10 noob to take his first greenie. He has also been the cause for most alliance players' first death (mine included). Hogger jokes never go out of fashion , and he shall never be forgotten.

hogger pwns all, he cant be killed
chuck norris is the only one that can kill him and he decided he doesnt like alliance players, so he wont yup, true story

Commentaire de Hansol

This is one of the lowest elites in the game he is part of a quest you obtain from a sign near the West Brook Garrison, east of Westfall. It's best to get a group for him unless you are atleast 5 levels higher then him, you might still need a potion and a good plan, also make sure you do not pull more then just him or you will find it very hard to kill him, and probably die. Try and clear some area around him or pull him alone near the water around you so even if your about to die you can just jump into the water and he wont come after you.

Commentaire de 8455

You can as well just ask the general chat in Elwynn for a higher level to help you out. Ive done it every time on my characters and someone just comes by really quick and helps me. Ask nicely though :)

Commentaire de 8455

That is true, however if you are just going to kill hogger, that much xp loss will not really affect your character, being that you will probably be around lvl 10 when you do it. However, if you are going to kill multiple npcs, then soloing it is the wiser choice

Commentaire de 8691

A word of recommendation - If you want to solo level up, skip Hogger. He is a waste of time for a solo leveler, and simply takes time and effort that could be better spent elsewhere. If you don't mind getting a group for this, go ahead, the rewards are decent and it's good experience in group work at a low level.

Commentaire de 84425

Hogger is the joke of all servers, but when you're his level and try to solo the quest, he's got the unfair advantage on you. He crits 100s and higher on cloth wearers, which at that level is massive. He additionally has Knockdown, a 2 second stun. When you try to pull him, be alert for any other Gnolls who you might accidentally pull.

Commentaire de 87627

Hogger is soloable as a level 9 warlock. Just dot him up and when he is almot in melee range fear him. If you run low on mana (Make sure you have fel armor) then you can so some life tap. Enjoy!

Commentaire de FarseerLolotea

Can be soloed by a 12 rogue, but it's a very tough fight. Have a healing potion on hand, activate Evasion, stack the combo points, and you've got a chance. (Actually, I'd suggest keeping a healing potion on hand for anyone attempting to solo this guy...or a mana potion, if you're a healer.)

Commentaire de 53109

This particular elite is extremely misleading.

He is one of the toughest bosses to exist yet, many have done 40 man raids on him with no success.He hits for an insane amount of damage, he aggros random people, and pierces armor.

You have your work cut out for you, but good luck.

He drops this insane item for warriors.
You might also be lucky enough to get the ultra-rare which is needed to craft the

Edit: Fixed link.

Commentaire de FarseerLolotea

He can be soloed by a 12, but it's a tough fight. Have (at least) a Lesser Healing Potion on-hand, and use any D.O.T.s that you may have. (P.S.: Don't frivolously vote comments down.)

Commentaire de 69531

Soloed this as a level 10 Druid. Clear the area around him first. Try and have health and mana potions with you just in case. All I did was spam Entangling Roots over and over. It only deals 20 damage over 12 seconds and with 660 health, you can imagine that it took a long time. But you are able to regenerate most if not all or more of the 50 mana cast while he is entangled if you are not casting anything else and allowing your mana to regenerate.

The spell gets resisted and breaks early some times, so be ready for that and try and keep a fair distance from him at all times while watching for pats and respawns. I also periodically threw Explosive Rockets at him (in between reroots, so it didn't break the cc) which is a quest reward for https://www.wowhead.com/cata/quest=61. Not sure which other classes have this kind of option available to them. Maybe Warlocks if they are really careful with adds.

Yea, soloed as 11 lock. Sent my wv at him and kept dots up all the time and feared couple of times, piece of cake. Remember to clear the area first though, had to use health pot because of an add.

Commentaire de FarseerLolotea

Hogger can be soloed by a 12, but it's a tough fight. Clear the area, be prepared to heal often (if you're not a healing class, have at least a Lesser Healing Potion on hand), and use any and all D.O.T. effects at your disposal.

Commentaire de JayRay

Strategy:

Make sure your raid clears the surrounding area before engaging hogger, there is a very fast respawn timer for the adds.

Make sure your raid is fully buffed before even attempting him.

Phase 1:
The fight starts when you engage Hogger, he will use https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=6730 on your MT, then switch to the THIRD highest person on threat. Because of this it is helpful to have 3 tanks, so the top 3 threat characters will be a tank.

He will use https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=6016 on his target, it is important that the off tank taunts Hogger off the MT, or else Hogger will hit for huge, unimaginable amounts.

Make sure the tanks are quick with the taunts, a Pierce Armor on the MT followed by a crit from Hogger can be disastrous.

Phase 2:
Phase 2 starts when the first gnome mage with pink hair dies from an add, this is UNAVOIDABLE, if ANY gnome mage with pink hair dies ANYWHERE on the server, Hogger will enter Phase 2.

(Hogger can not be killed without entering phase 2, if you get him down to 10% while in Phase 1, he will enrage, stunning everyone in melee range, then use Glaive Throw at everyone who is not stunned, this will wipe the raid.)

If Hogger is not entering Phase 2, then a Gnome mage with pink hair MUST be sacrificed to the nearest Murloc, it is the only way.

In Phase 2, hogger starts making fires which the raid must move out of. This is a new idea that Blizzard gave only to Hogger and is completely original in every aspect of the game.

So, this will be new to people, especially if they have raiding experience.

MOVE OUT OF THE FIRES

Once Hogger gets to 10% he enters....

Phase 3

Hogger will start growing, after 1 minute into phase 3, Hogger will be the size of Gruul, and will start hitting your tanks so hard, there is no way they can survive. At this point, you should use all of your cooldowns, and the tanks will start to die, then the melee dps, then the healers, then the ranged dps.

At this point of the fight, https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=7937 will come out to assist your raid, he will be able to taunt Hogger off your raid, and if you have enough dps alive, you will be able to kill him.

soloed as a level 10 rogue, no joke. gear was just random quest stuff, no greens at all.

used bag of marbles, glowing wax stick, oil of olaf, and scroll of protection, all of which i had gotten from previous quests (first3) or drops from random mobs (scroll). used a light healing potion once during the fight, popped evasion as well, and also did gouge -> bandage at one point during the fight. also needed to gouge -> go behind him for backstab a few times.

even with all of this it was very close, i won with about 30 HP left.

Commentaire de Aedalas

Tried to kite him to Org to see if he would fight Saurfang, but the server crashed because of too much awesomness.

Commentaire de 155407

i solod hogger as a lvl11 mage with random gear (spec'd 2 pts in fire).

the trick for casters is to mitigate his sprint, so you have to pull with a wand (and you should have max wand skill for your level). after pulling, wait for him to engage his sprint, then sheep him, run back, and let your mana regen as long as the sheep will hold. then you just nuke him till he reaches you, nova, run away, nuke him again. you'll probably run out of mana before he's dead so you have to kite him a bit and get in wands when you can (make sure to have frost armor up). if you don't have max wand skill you will probably not kill him. also, with frost bolt's binary resist, if you try and nuke him with frost and get any resists at all you probably won't kill him.

Tried to kite this guy around as a level 11 mage but he keeps resetting after not very far at all. Very irritating. Seriously, you get him 20 metres away from his spawn and he just resets. It's unclear how mages are supposed to attempt this solo with this anti-kite nonsense.

Deciding he needed a way to terrorize the Alliance without leaving Orgrimmar, Saurfang took 2 boar pelts, sewed them together, vomited into them, and left the resulting mess in Elwynn Forest. 2 days later, the mess came alive, becoming the creature we now know as Hogger.

Commentaire de 152670

Soloed as an 80 BM hunter + cat - I know this sounds unlikely, but I have finally managed it, after dying multiple times. Here's how I did it:

First you need to get the attunement by completing these quests in Zul'Drak. Once you have done this, you will need to farm up 30 Drakkari Offerings in that zone to be able to turn them in 10 at a time to the three statues in order to get the three buffs they give you. Having these buffs will provide that vital edge you need to down this guy. Once you have the buffs, fly back to Dalaran and portal to Stormwind immediately - you will need the length of time these buffs last to be able to kill him. Mount up, and get from Stormwind to where Hogger is as fast as possible. If you have less than 50 minutes left on any of the buffs by the time you get there - forget it, you WILL die when the buffs run out. Also make sure you have a goodly supply of Runic Health and Runic Mana pots - you'll need them!

First up, give your pet some Kibler's Bits to improve its Stamina. Also buff up on scrolls and elixirs before starting - I used Scroll of Agility VI, Elixir of Mighty Agility and Elixir of Mighty Fortitude.

To begin the attack, use Bestial Wrath (and I burned my trinket - you'll want this or something similar for a good AP boost), cast MD and Mend Pet on the cat and send him in. Steady Shot, normal shot and Arcane Shot follow up to ensure maximum aggro on the cat, then Volley to AoE down the waves of adds that spawn when you first attack him. This will pull the adds off the cat and onto you thus preventing them from zerging the cat while he's tanking Hogger. Drop another volley on yourself when you get zerged to get rid of them - they hit hard, but don't have much health and should go down with only a couple of bursts of Volley.

Remember to keep Mend Pet up at all times, the cat will still die eventually but you can use Heart of the Phoenix to res it with full health and mana. Since this has a 10-minute CD, you need to maintain Mend Pet long enough to be able to use it again later. If the cat dies before the CD is up, use FD to drop aggro, then res the cat normally with Revive Pet, heal it up and feed it and keep going. Pot up as required.

As soon as the MD is off cooldown, keep it going on the cat - if you pull Hogger off the cat, he'll 1-shot you and that's all she wrote. So keep a close eye on your threat meter and back off it it's getting too close. Also stay at maximum range to avoid his AoE; this plus the waves of shadow bolts he casts at 75%, 50% and 25% health will wipe you out. The shadow bolts have a long range, but you can avoid them if you get out of LoS as he's casting them - get behind a tree at this point.

Keep up Volley as well whenever the adds appear - at about 60% and 30% health IIRC. The cat has enough on his plate, and if you've avoided Hogger's AoEs and shadow bolts you should have enough health to tank the adds off the cat and Volley them down.

Other than this, maintain the usual shot rotation - Steady Shot, Serpent Sting, Arcane Shot, Multi Shot, alternating with normal shots. Don't bother with Concussive Shot - he's immune to movement slowing and stun effects. It also helps to keep a Freezing Trap ready in case you pull Hogger - it'll give you time to heal and pot and recast MD on the cat.

It'll take more than 3/4 of an hour to finish Hogger off, so don't worry about burning cooldowns - you'll use them all multiple times. With good timing, a cool head and lots of lucky crits, you should be able to do this - and win the bragging rights in your guild for soloing the biggest, baddest world boss in the game! ;)

Edit: BTW, rename you cat to ChuckNorris - this is what WILL make the difference in this fight!

How to organize a raid of level 1's on hogger:

1 First try to get a guild of active members of about 20-40

2 Make a guild message of the day showing what date the hogger raid will be

3 Make either a full raid of gnomes or humans or dwarves or any combination, also here are the advantages of each race:
Gnomes: ;) make sure they are pink/green haired
Humans: Fastest way there
Dwarves: Priest and Pally heals
Draeni and Night Elves are a bad option because of the long time to get there

4 Choose how hard it will be and here are some ways to change difficulty:

Send money to them ahead of time to get vendor-bought whites
Send money to them ahead of time to get the level 1 ability
Send money to them to do the 2 things above
Level them up to 5 but not too high
get more/less members
Heals or no heals THAT is the question
And some others that you can think of

5 Go out there and raid hogger!

6 To make things harder:

1 Run your 1's into fires
2 Run your 1's into the water
3 Run your 1's into any of the 2 above
4 Make them rapidly duel everyone in a dueling zone because of their low health the fight with hogger will be more epic (and by epic I mean painful)

PS If you are playing as a horde or Do not know how to get to him then well play your main some more and get that guy to at least level 2

Commentaire de 248954

it is said that when you kill hogger, a giant banner pops up saying "You win!", 50 dollars come out of your computer's CD-Drive, and, after all that, a GM ports to your raid's location and gives everyone a buff.

however, no one has EVER killed hogger.

when Nihilium got hogger to 20% (triggering his Nightmare phase) and then instantly wiped, they got frustrated, causing them to later disband.., as a result, Nihilium merged with another top raiding guild in a final attempt to kill hogger. They tried as best to their abilities, making 3 seperate raid groups consisting of people from their new guild, Ensidia... They only got him down to 10%.

finally, after millions of posts a day on the forums, blizzard attempted to nerf hogger. the result was that every single person who downloaded the hogger patch (which was later removed) got their computer infected with an un-removable trojan virus that, right after settling into the downloader's computer, caused their computer screen to blow up in his/her face.

the only possible way hogger would be killed is if Chuck Norris made 3 clones of himself (which is very near to impossible because if 3 chuck norrises existed then the very fabrics of our earth would be crushed from the incredible amount of awesome) , and even then he would need the assistance of Saurfang.

He's planning on single-handedly conquering Azeroth and the Outlands. Alliance and Horde are going to have to unite to battle a threat greater than the Burning Legion and Arthas combined.

It is true that no one has killed hogger-its like Soul Calibur- you may impale him many times, but he only gets knocked out-no matter what size your blade is

I'm about to go down Hogger as a level 12-13 hunter, with a level 12 pet. Wish me luck!

Commentaire de Bohdan

My guild just did Hogger with 3 Gnolls up.

Commentaire de Hurono

You can pull him to the guards of SW if you're careful. Not like it will help much though. His adds mobbed me as a 72 Unholy DK and I was screwed, I barely kited him at all. I even got a full raid, all Naxx geared and everything, and to no avail we died. To anyone who says this game is in easy mode, go try soloing Hogger. Go try 25 manning Hogger. Go try 40 man raiding Hogger! Heck bring all your faction leaders!

You have died. Would you like to release spirit to the nearest graveyard?

I've spent 476g, 77s, 91c in repairs to date, all in efforts to take him down in raids. Good luck to anyone who attempts this. Also: Why place a raid boss in Elwynn Forest? Really? Those poor level 8's will get crushed, and not knowing what happened!

Hogger's health is 666, coincidence? I THINK NOT

Commentaire de GinjaNinja

In soviet russia, Hogger raids you.
It's like normal hogger, but there's 40 of them.

Commentaire de 222832

Allright everyone out there. I've found the abilities and phases of Hogger...I used a private server though, don't blame me ;( Only way to down him...Anyways

Hogger will have 666 million HP, and do 18.666 damage (aprox) on plate tank. He'll attack at a 1.1 second attack rate.
Phase 1:

Devil Charge - Instantly charges a random enemy dealing 50.000.000 shadow damage. Must be interupted. 1.5 second cast time

Demonify - Raises a target dead enemy, mind controlling it and increasing it's damage and attack/castspeed by 500%. The target will be killed when another target is raised. Hogger determines whoms the stronger one.

"Mwahahhaha" - Hogger roars, everyone within 75 yards will be knocked down and dealt 666.666.666 dmg unless interupted. 1 second cast time.

Phase 2 - 90% HP - Hogger summons the entire raid into "Hell"-zone. This will heal Hogger to 100% HP, and increase his attack damage by 25%. The same abilities as in phase 2 will be used, with the exception that they do fire damage.

Phase 3 - 80% HP - Hogger freezes "Hell"-zone over, giving him other abilities, decreasing his damage by 25%, but increasing attack speed by 55%.

Frozen Hairball - Hogger coughs up a hairball, freezes it, and sends it towards a target enemy. The Enemy will be stunned untill the hairball detonated. Anyone standing near the target should get the **** away, as the bomb deals 666.666.666 frost damage to everyone within 10 yards. It should be noted, that the top 5 threat people cannot be targettet.

Hunger - Shortly after the hairball is shot, Hogger will use "Hunger". He'll start moving towards the killed target. If the target is not ressurected before Hogger feasts on the corpse, he'll restore 10% of his hp, and increase his damage done by 80% for 50 seconds.

Phase 5 - 60% HP - Hogger will summon High Overlord Saurfang and mindcontrol hi *CLEAVE SOUND*...
Nevermind...

Phase 5 - 60% will summon his ol' paps; Rotfang.
Rotfang is not as powerfull as Hogger, so use this phase to get mana up to as much as possiple.
Rotfang will have 2580k HP and use the following abilities

Rot - Stings the highest threat dawg with a rotting poison, dealing 13000 poison damage per 2 sec. Must be dispelled, however it has a 95% chance to avoid dispelling.

Fang - Cleaves the target and hits 5 other people for Normal Damage + 3000 damage.

Phase 6 - High Overlord Saurfang will come and cleave Hogger for 12% of his health points, bringing Hogger down to 48% hp where phase 6 really will start. Highoverlord Saurfang simply leaves after his cleave. (He had to use a proper target to do a crit on...He didn't crit, so he got so #$%^ed he just left.)

Hogger will continuesly use "Mwahahaha" (See phase 1) until brought down to 30%. where Phase 7 will start...
I can't tell you much about Phase 7, cause even me as a GM on my own server couldn't handle it, even with godmode on...

Phase 7 - Nightmare phase. (Aka enrage)
Hoggers damage will increase by 150% damage and attackspeed by 1250%. Also, he will port up to where you initially engaged him. However, the whole zone will turn into a nightmare (Shadowform-stylish), and every other player in the zone not in the raid will be killed. Hogger will do shadow damage on all attacks.

Phasmatic Rage - Every time Hogger successfully strikes his target, a Phasmatic Nightmare will spawn. The Phasmatic Nightmares must be AoE'ed down.
Phasmatic Nightmare stats:
2000 dmg on plate,
0.80 attack speed,
20% chance to spawn a Minor Phasmatic Nightmare on strike.

The Minors will do half damage, and attack at half attackspeed.

Nightmare Weapon - Hogger will cleave 10 targets next to his maintarget within 10 yards, dealing weapondamage as shadow damage. This is used on every attack and will proc Phasmatic Rage.

This as fast as i could get...The phasmatic Nightmares simply got too many.
After i wiped, i could see people on my server start whining about getting killed by "Phasmatic Rages"....

Good luck to all!

I soloed as a 74 DK apparently blizzard hasn't updated him to be immune to chains of ice so I kited him with that and dark command while ghoul melee'd I eventually got him to Goldshire and he made ruins to the town everyone was running to Stormwind in panic asking trade for help eventually we got 2 or 3 raid groups down there and with the help of the guards and the raid we finally brought him down since the Goldshire graveyard is so close our tanks dps and healer could get set back up after getting one shotted as he mowed through guards after about an hour or two we finally got him down

Commentaire de Akario

World first kill by T A O On Tichondrius. It involved great teamwork by Notorious on the alliance side.
It played out as Three groups of main tank mages, if you ask why they are mages, they must kite hogger around. This will change in phase two. The next two groups must be healers, they must be shamans with over ten thousand extra healing constantly casting chain heal. The next two groups must be resto druids constantly intervating the restoration druids, and then the last group must be rogues and hunters as dps, constantly kiting hogger away from the mages. They will be kicked after phase 2, if not the group will wipe.

Phase 2

In phase 2, the first group must exit the fight by allowing the three groups of tanks from raid group 2 to pull agro allowing the raidgroup 1 to hearth to ogrimmar. It is CRUICAL that their hearth is set to orgrimmar. If it is not, Hogger will wipe agro and target each and everyone of them with a 1500% damage and size increase until raid group 1 is dead.

Setup for Raid Group 2

Group's 1-7 must all have the Corrupted Blood disease from hakkarr. How you get it out of Zul'gurub is up to you, you just have to do it. These will be the sacrifices you must feed to Hogger. He will then be transfered the disease, stacked by 35. When the debuff runs out he will be hit for approximately 1% of his original health.

The rest of the group must be offline rogues.

By the time you get to 640 health, you will reach Phase 3.

PHASE 3.

In this phase the group will be teleported to a room similar to Kael'thas's room in The Eye. You then must perform a safety dance similar to Heigan's, But it must be EXACT, and you must have either the iron dwarf buff, or the Orb of Deception to become a female dwarf and river stomp. You will start at the middle of the room on each square inch of space there will be a person. Everyone MUST be wearing a Stylin' ******* Hat or else this could go terribly wrong. At half way through the song, everyone must use a blood elf disguise orb, to do the napolean dynamite dance. When that is done, Hogger will then challenge the player with the least threat to a extreme dance off. It is suggested to be a subtlety rogue, and to use the spell Shadow Dance as a finishing move. Blade Dancer's Wristguards and Wind Dancer's Pendant should also be equipped.
Ruby Slippers should be equipped as well as a purple shirt. If the player however has the item https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=34249 they will immedietly be sanctified from any damage. Then they will die.

If this is performed successfully, it will summon https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=26917 whom will distract hogger for 15 seconds giving the players a chance to wipe threat. When hogger is finished with the Life-Binder's stun, https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=51663 will be cast on each player. They will also be shielded for said time. This will initiate Phase D.

PHASE D.

Phase D is the most important phase as it must be completed on a different realm. Once the raid group has transfered over, their ~~characters~~ accounts will be deleted.

Hogger cannot be killed.

Hogger is soloable with a 13+ character I would say. Or if your a level 10-12ish dont bother going through the trouble of trying to solo him. Get a group of 2-3 and kill him.

Think it's a bit overpowered?

Commentaire de 288482

Apparently there are several people died in the fighting of Hogger that blizzard wanted to honor them.
Koiter, the well known one, was brought back to the barrens so as to be protected by Saurfang and protected from Hogger.
Kaylee Dak hearthed to shatt as a means to escape but is still recieving the same beatings since the ogres above Shatt literally work for Hogger.
Rousch wanted to bury his soul in Hillsbrad seeing as how he was going to face Hogger later on and didn't want him to steal it.

Hogger Is the Core Villain in WoW. Why? Here's Why.
1)Leader of the Defias Brotherhood.
2)Creator of The Burning Legion.
3)Dropped Dwarves In charcoal to make them dark iron.
4)Invented Troll Mojo.(Don't ask how)
5)Created The Plague of Undeath.
6) Created The Ashbringer Crystal.(Its just a Malchite but lets keep that a secret...)
And Lastly
7)Blew Up Nordrassil With a paper clip, mojo and a stick. (The World Tree a.k.a Hyjal)
And no one knows we have such a dangerous villain in Elwynn........

Commentaire de 359590

It's time to put Hogger down... this swine flu thing just crosses the line.

Commentaire de Doroo

How to kill Hogger:

- Gather a 40-man raid group. (full-epic ofc)
- Everyone in the raid must at least have 10 stacks of Noggenfogger-Hogger elixir to be used during the 48 hour long battle.

Phase 1:
Basicly just tank and nuke down to 50%

Hogger`s abilities during phase 1.
- War Stomp: Stuns all enemies within 50 yards for 10 seconds.
- Shockroar: Knocks all enemies within 50 yards 20 yards back, and causes them to take additional 30% damage for the next 4 days.
- Hogger hug: Hogger is in love with the 10 people at the bottom of the threat meter, charming them for 20 seconds, while the target is charmed, it will attack other raid members for the duration.

Phase 2:
It`s very important during phace 2 that everyone in the raid group knows how to tank, heal, dps, EVERYTHING!
Phase 2 lasts until 30%.

Hogger`s abilities during phase 2:
- Same abilities as in phase 1.
- Mind transfer: Makes everyraid member loose control of their own character, replacing it with another random raid member. (this includes action bars, macros, addons, so make sure you all have the same addons and keybindings and such)

Phase 3:
Now this is where the hard part starts.
Hogger can no longer use abilities from phase 1 and 2.
Phase 3 lasts until 5%.

Hogger`s abilities during phase 3:
- Clone: Hogger creates a clone of himself with 500k hit points. With all the abilities hogger had in phase 1 and 2.
- Summon (rank 1): Hogger summons 750 level 10 gnolls that are immune to damage for 10 seconds after summoned. (OMFG WTF FFS LAGG)
- Rain of healers: Hogger sends a roar at every class that has the ability to be a healer (druid, priest, paladin, shaman) and sends them high in the sky. When they fall down the falldamage (which normally would kill them) are split amongst the raid. (priests are not able to cast levitate during the fall)
- Summon (rank 2): Hogger calls upon light of Shattrath, turning it into darkness and summons every level 70 player of the opposite faction in the city.

Phase 4:
If you have managed to get to phase 4. You should be proud, but I promise you... This part here.. Is IMPOSSIBLE!

Hogger`s abilities during phase 4:
- Disconnect strike: Disconnects a random target in the raid group.
- Call of thunder: Creates a thunderstorm in the sky dealing 1000 nature damage every 5 second for the rest of the fight.
- Summon (rank 3): Hogger feels injured and calls for help, summoning Nefarian, Onyxia, Ragnaros and Chuck Norris to aid him.

If you should be able to kill him, just remember that he`s got a soulstone which has 5 seconds cooldown^^

There is an NPC capable of one-shotting hogger, an NPC of such great power that every realm would have to unite to have so much as a hope, an NPC making Chuck Norris lock his doors at night and making the lich king close off icecrown citadel so it's not instanced, that npc... Is this.

Also, Hogger's response to blizz trying to nerf him was not a trojan virus and exploding computers, his response was ejecting swine flu out of a computer in Mexico.

Commentaire de 227695

since 3.1.0 hogger has three new abilities

1st: IRL head punch -> you cant avoid it ingame you must just runaway from your computer.
2nd: bad message buff -> messages get sent to all of your mobile contacts containing bad words, people had been complaining about getting messages saying "HAIL SATIN" too. this cant be avoided

3rd: when hogger reaches 10% of hp he uses the "perma ban account" ability to a random player, every 2 seconds for 2 hours, thats inevitable, however you can make 58-9 accounts to lower the change of getting this debuff.

Commentaire de Honorus

Just a li´ll update. In these days Adaro lives in Iccrown citadel and is goodness (yeah, GOODNESS just to %^&* u of) himself. He lives in harmony and rules Azeroth between his daily kicknewbieass . He defeated Loken and everything is peacuful... Until one day, Adaro suddenly got attacked by an army, an army of &*!@ed of Scarlet Crusaders. They were all 80 elites but Adaro just kicked their ass. Then the war broak out. The gay little human king got @#$%ed of and attacked Dalaran just in pure rage for the war. Adaro kicked the gay human´s ass but then some looser called King Magni attacked and the war broak out. Adaro had to kick a lot of ass and suddenly he was so tired that he needed help by Ramun. Ramun said FO and threw an apple at him. Adaro got mad and killed Vereesa and tortured Ramun before he suddenly killed him with his axe. He drank the paladin´s blood that sucked in every way until he found out it wasn´t Ramun, it was the Warrior Kluten that sucked ín every way with his ugly wife Gaaka. He was glad he killed the suckish warrior and went to the house beside where he found Ramun. Together the awesome dk and the awesome paladin restored the peace in Azeroth together.

The end!

Sad news. The kickass paladin´s wife Vereesa had died in horrible plauges after her own husband Ramun killed here with a fork. However, the reason why is stil unknown but I can asure you that he will be found and punished by the kickass dk Patron Adaro himself. Adaro offers 5000 gold to anybody that can tell where he is and present it to Adaro at the Icecrown Citadel.

Ok, first, before you click the down rate button, I would like to say I am extremely sorry and that all those comments I posted were not by me. They were by my brother. I think Hogger is a beast and that he should drop epics and legendary items , but sadly my brother does not agree with me. I would never say those mean things so please don't be mad at me for what my brother has done... So I would like some responses to tell me that I am forgiven because I am truly sorry and embarassed about what my brother has done. I also deleted all the comments he made so that they would not offend anyone else. Once again I want to say how sorry I am for his actions and I hope you guys can find it within your hearts to forgive me...

We allready used our trinket: https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=33830, yet we couldnt kill him...

We got a ticket from the GM Chuck Norris and he said that Hogger only died by the GM command .kill, and it only as a 2% chance of success, and if you do it and it doesn't success, you get perma-banned with the message "Yo trie' to keel me motha f*ka ur bann'd gangstah"

My guild attempted the 40 man heroic hogger last week, we were doing okay, but he enraged early, and our best resto druid went down, from there we kept going for about 20 seconds, until we were forced to scatter and try swimming across the river. Some of us got dropped by his 5000dps aoe he dropped after we tried to run. The remainder of us backpedaled from the other side of the riverbank. We lost him, but soon he busted out from the water and finished us off with another aoe. Hardest fight in the game by far, I believe Blizzard have some special title reward for the people who beat him, similar to the one given to the people who cleared Ulduar.

Datamining from the new Coliseum instance has detected something very interesting: Apparently there's a fight where you encounter "Memories" of old bosses, such as Ragnaros, Illidan, VanCleef and Algalon.

However, also on that list, is Memory of Hogger.

If this is true, and Hogger will be a boss there... well, all I can say is good luck. And may our souls find rest on the other side.

He returns as a miniboss in the new raid inside the argent tournament.

It looks like you will be "sent back in time" to fight your old memorys, the memorys are:

Ps: This is one of the most hilarious things blizzard done. I never thought (well i thought but I told myself that it would never happen) that hogger would be a boss/miniboss in a endgame instance/raid.

You need a minimum of 3 full raid groups (120 people) to even attempt Hogger. Any less and he will use https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=60536 which will one-shot everyone within a five mile radius. Most people take 4 or 5 raid groups just to be safe. To this date, no one has managed to kill Hogger. A few guilds brought 4 full raid groups and managed to get him to 96% with the help of a few GMs. Hogger has been known to use this and put this debuff on the tank.

Hogger's known drops include https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=46017, https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=30318, https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=25402, and https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=63796.

NOTE: This is just what Blizzard says drops, since no one has ever killed Hogger.

The guys who got Martin's Fury brought it to Hogger. On attempting to use it, Hogger got so enraged he killed the raid so bad, their charecters simply wouldn't respawn.

Impossiable Fove, I fought Hogger on my level 80 Death Knight...it still haunts me to this day. I started out with Army of the Dead, but my ghouls refused to attack out of fear. I then charged Hogger while rapidly facerolling my keyboard, but that too was ineffective despite its overpoweredness. I stopped my charge, and in fustration, launched a verbal attack on Hogger, which triggered his enraged affect early. I turned and ran, running toward Westbrook Garrison. As I crossed the road, I picked up a Gnome and threw it in the enraged Hogger's driection, which saved my life. I still have nightmares that Hogger will get me one day.

It made me chuckle when i noticed that his lv 11 version has 666hp

Commentaire de denjerre

I teamed up as a lvl 9 pala wih a lvl 10 mage to try and kill him. He had already killed the mage and cost me all of my mana when he killed me, and he was at 1% health! Then I rezzed at the Spirit Guide (out of fear) and opened my backpack and saw; a health potion I lacked to use. If I would just have used it, I would have won, but I'm that stupid.

Donald attempts to solo hogger.

Tactics:

You can go 1,2 or 3 gnolls up for better and bigger loot.

So we are gonna explain the 3 gnolls up tactics.

You will need 2 imba tanks,2 imba healers,3 imbarange dps (Warlock,Mage,Hunter) and 3 imba melee dps

At phase 1:

The OT must take the 3 gnolls and 1 imba healer healing him,while the MT is fighting,Hogger every 17 seconds will use stun abilitie to stun the MT,in that case the mage must use frost nova on the 3 gnolls letting the OT to tank Hogger till the stun effect reaches his limit.After.Every time the 3 gnolls will will being stucked my a movement impairing effect they will become 20% stronger,this can stuck up to 5 times.After the OT getting back to the gnolls he must use any potions at that momment to survive.Hogger in this phase will use the stun effect 2 times that means the gnolls will become 40% stronger because the mage needs to use the frost nova.

At phase 2:

When Hogger will reach 60% HP he will call his 3 gnolls to protect him,at this case Hogger will sit down and start eating to restore his health.The 3 gnolls must be finished withing 9 minutes .There are 3 types of gnoll here,the 1 gnoll is tank wich has 70% more health than the other 2,the other gnoll is an imba dps,and the other is resto Shaman,the range dps must quickly kill the Healer Gnoll as fast as impossible,if they will not kill within in 2 minutes the Healer Gnoll's cost of his spells will be reduced by 100% and his heals will be instant casts.While the range dps and melee are fighting the Healer wich cannot attack the player but can heal the tank gnoll the OT is taking the Dps Gnoll,and the MT the Tank Gnoll,after the Healer Gnoll is finished the range dps must attack the Tank Gnoll when he only has 3 stacks of sunder armor.When the Tank Gnoll will reach his 10% he will be immuned to all attacks for 10 seconds and his damage will be inscreaced by 200%,at this case the Hunter must kite the Tank Gnoll,till the rest of dps will take out the Dps Gnoll,when the Dps Gnoll is finished the whole raid must nuke the tank (wich remained in 10%) within in 3 seconds or the Tank Gnoll Will instantly kill a range dps of the raid.
All these must be done in less than 9 minutes.(Hogger in phase 3 will return with 70% HP isntead of 60%)

At phase 3:

Hogger will return angry,with 30% inscreaced physical damage.At this point and he will use stun every 5 seconds(The stun now will have 7 seconds duration).In this order Hogger to be Killed King Varian joins the fight to help,every time Hogger every time he will use stun of the MT,King Varian will be used as second MT,the healers must heal him.

At phase 4:

Hogger in 40% will call alot of trash mobs,the mobs have low health but very high dps,they must be finished quickly with AoE,at this point the OT must pull all the mobs and then the dps use AoE on them.

Final Phase:

At 15% HP Hogger becomes enraged and his size will be huges as Gruul's one.While Hogger is Enraged all his physical damage is inscreaced by 200% and his attack speed by 100%,there is only one way he can be defeated.If the tank is Paladin he must take all the aggro on Hogger and the use Divine Sheild,while he is immuned to damage Hogger is taking damage from the dps.
While the Divine Sheild reachs his limit the tank dies.(Varian now in the battle is used as dps to take Hogger down faster)When in this phase the MT dies the OT must taunt him from a maximum range,while Hogger is trying to catch the OT (because he is running) the dps are attacking him,Hogger to catch the OT he will use Sprint so he must be nuked easy,when he will be downed to 5% health,he will instantly kill the OT,because he is injured he has 75% reduced speed.At this point the Hogger to do not kill the melee dps the Range dps must give me attention.While Hogger is still following the range dps the melee dps must behind him and both range and melee to nuke him.After Hogger is nuked he dies (0% down from 5%)

Before entering battle
1.Bring alot of mana and health potions
2.The warlock must make a soulstone
3.Repair your gear
4.Make sure you are full buffed

Hogger Drops tier 10,and Legendary weapons.At ever 3 gnolls up he drops 3 class tier 10 drops
Instance:Hogge's lair
Zone:Elwyn Forest

Good luck and now go to kill this beast

Commentaire de 76428

I have been indeed the luckiest person on the server by never dying by Hoggers mighty godly paw.

"Surely, how can such a feat be possible, NEI even attempted?”

Well this is my story:
It happened long time ago when I was strolling down the street in Goldshire and I saw huge tower, I decided to check it out. When I got to the tower I saw a sign claiming who ever could slay Hogger would get and I quote "Phat Epics Loot".
Now I might have been low level but since I had my intelligence buff up I deduced that there was no way in hell that you would give out such grand prizes and still be in business. So I walk over to the man, named Marshal Dughan, who gave this quest and I ask "How can you give out such great loot and never run out? “. The man looks me in the eyes and I notice there is a mixture of sorrow and madness in his.
He tells me "I should not do this but I feel compelled for you remind me off myself when I was younger and less foolish, no one ever gets the loot". He lowered his voice and looked around couple times as to make sure no one heard. Then he spoke "Long ago when I was still a young lad like you Hogger approached me and made me a deal" he swallows hard when he mentions deal as he was swallowing his own soul.
"Hogger told me if I would send adventurers his way, so as he told me later that he could construct his own army of the dead which would rival that of even the Lich King, he would spare me, my family and all of Azeroth."
At this point I'm actually shaking, to think someone of this creature strength could exist made my heart stop for but only a moment which felt like an eternity.

I could do nothing less than thank this brave soul for shouldering such a burden and also for saving my life. Even to this day whenever someone mentions Hogger I freeze up and cannot move, it feels like I have two Snares stacked it does.

So now that you know the story, warn the people. Warn the very Titans themselves, for he is coming and it shall be the reckoning of us all.

Don't look so smug, I know what you're thinking... but Elwynn Forest was merely a setback. Did you honestly think that I'd trust some savage, stinking gnolls? Oh no no no, they were merely instruments... a stepping stone to a much larger plan... and this time, you will not interfere.

Ps: This is one of the most hilarious things blizzard done. I never thought (well i thought but I told myself that it would never happen) that hogger would be a boss/miniboss in a endgame instance/raid.

I never understood. Why is Hogger so famous?

Because the guys at Blizz decided to force a dumb meme. He's the first time most human player characters encounter an elite, so he became known for ganking unsuspecting lowbies. But everyone knows Mor'Ladim was way better at sneaking up on you.

Hogger and the #23

666 hp
lvl 11 elite -> 11.5 -> 23
2 person quest, avg. lvl 11.5 -> 23
found 23,92 23 lvl 1 chars can kill Hogger
Hogger has 6 letters, 6 = 2 x 3

numerically:
H O G G E R = 60, 2nd 6 of 3 total, 23.
H O = 23
E R = 23
+ + 2.3 = 37. 37 = H E L L
23 - G = 16. 16 / G = 2.3
H O G G E R / 23 = 2.60. Add .23, keep .8, round the .03 by two numbers (5), .00009 by 3 numbers (12), and keep the .0000000012. The numbers you modified end up being 8 5 12 12 -> H E L L

- His HP is 666.
- He can knock you down with Head butt even while he's stunned.
- He's the largest of all Gnolls.
- The real reason why the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor split is because that was the day Saurfang and Hogger drew territory lines.

2 things to mention about this guy:
He has 666 HP...
...and upon dealing that much damage to him, he doesn't die, he grows bored and takes a nap, allowing you loot him.

Commentaire de 493327

...I admit it, I tried to solo him once.
Yes, I tried to solo Hogger.
And it was painful.

I was a level 37 at the time, and had always read about how hogger was "Unkillable" and "pwnd all", so I decided to see just how tough this Hogger guy was.
I had never done his quest, so I didn't know how hard he could hit. I killed all the things around him, and glanced at him. I saw his health was 666, but I thought he would just be another weak creature.
I hadn't noticed the large gold dragon around his nameplate.
So I go to hit him, cast a few spells, and noticed that he was hitting me. Hard. I healed myself, and kept attacking.
...Needless to say, he killed me. I stared at my computer, so confused as to how this level 11 creature could have killed me.
I spirit rezzed, and went to repair my gear. It was at least 6 times worse then usual.

So beware fighting this mob. He will take you down. Even at level 38.
And if anyone says that they killed him, he just got tired and passed out from boredom. All your doing is pickpocketing him.

Commentaire de 319099

Still Elite as of patch 3.3.... Will the horror ever end?

Commentaire de Elitebuster

Classification: Level 11 "Common" Elite
Location: Forest's Edge, Elwynn Forest
Difficulty: Medium-Hard for levels 10-14
Soloable: Only if you are extremely bored.

Background: Hogger is one of THE most infamous villains ever created in videogames. Being an iconic symbol of pure pownage, this NPC has a reputation of attacking local villages and making little kids cry to their mothers. This has resulted in quite the bounty on his claw, with the quest available to the Alliance.

He is the leader of the Riverpaw Gnolls, and is believed to have a brother not far from his position. Hogger should be approached with extreme caution.

Tips: Hogger does not stay in one place for long. He patrols the entire campgrounds, occasionally with some patrols with him. When engaged with other gnolls, be on the lookout for this elite.

As for fighting him, you should be fine if you bring along a consious healer, strong tank, and a DPS or two. The tank will get hit hard, but do not falter whatever happens. Again, watch out for patrols!

Hogger doesn't drop anything special, unless you are very lucky. He may drop Tigerseye or Gold Pickup Schedule for your time, however. Turning in the quest will give you choices of very nice gear for future adventures.

Good luck!

The expantion pack after "Cataclysm" will be "The revenge of Hogger".
Hogger will take over Stormwind City and the Gnolls still on his side, will live in this City.
It will be 2 new races, but I only know 1 of them. And that is of course Gnoll.
A group of Gnolls didnt want to serve Hogger anymore, so they joined the Alliance after Hoggers enormous forces raided Stormwind.
As far as I know there will be a new raid instance. It will be called "Stormwind City" (of course). There will be 5 wings. Old town will be completely destroyed. Hogger will of course stay inside Stormwind Keep.
A new ledgendary weapon will come in this expantion pack. It will be an upgrade from this.

Of course Im not serious...

Commentaire de Dragoonman

Just wait, in Cataclysm he will return in a raid for just him.

It will be a 40 man, and his knockdowns will bring the raid to its knees.

In fact, HOGGER is the one that causes the Cataclysm, Deathwing was just running away from hogger!

IF anyone is ever able to defeat him, they will be incredibly famous.

He will be a boss that has a pool of hp ranging from 666,666,666hp in regular and 999,999,999hp in heroic mode.

The raid name will simply be called Hogger's Lair.

And there will be lore behind hogger as well, tales of how for years he hid and pretended to be killed in Elwynn.

Plotting a terror upon the world of which nothing has ever known.

He will drop legendaries of every kind, and have a wealth of 1,000,000,000 gold.

Lets just hope the world is prepared for this much awesomeness.

Prepare to have the meaning of "wipe" redefined, "wipe" will mean the raid must be wiped up with paper towels afterwards.

May god have mercy on your souls, and pray that the new god isn't hogger.

A good insider friend at Blizzard told me they're increasing the raid size to 90 next patch.

Commentaire de 315859

We tried to raid him with twenty-five people, rather well geared too (from Naxxramas to Ulduar gear depending on people). How foolish we were. Hogger's melee was hitting the tank so hard healers couldn't even keep up. Thankfully we had not two, but THREE tanks (for Headbutt and Pierce Armor rotation) and thus the healers managed to keep them alive for a while. Wowhead for some reason fails to mention most of his abilities, but that happens sometimes. He has much more than just three. He cleaves, thunderclaps, whirlwinds and does a lot of other things a warrior would do, none are really threatening but this is only Phase one.
Somehow we managed to drop Hogger to 90% but then he banished himself and summoned a wave of adds called the "Sons of Hogger" which are very powerful elite gnolls. Those appear to be crowd controllable but our raid was weary from the battle already and it took us a lot of efforts to kill the Sons and some people died, including a tank and a healer. We understood that with so many casualties we are certainly doomed anyways but Hogger put us out of our misery swiftly as he took a deep breath and ran around the battlefield breathing a torrent of flames which killed about three fourths of the remaining raiders. The remaining scraps of the raid survived for just long enough to understand the strategy to the next phase. He now hits much harder than a tank can take and therefore his gnoll adds must be mindcontrolled and used to tank him. Raid fully wiped with him at 89% health, so attempting this with 25 men is futile. Further strategy will be revealed once we get a 40 man raid ready.

you must kill the lich king and loot his key to the hall of hogger.
when in the hall the player limit is 1000 you will need all of the possible players to kill hogger for he uses doom eyeballs to turn his enemies to ash,outland smash which causes your char to port to outland and rock smash what he uses when he reaches enrage it can wipe out all azeroth and blow up the blizz CPUs causing WoW to cease to exist that is why none dare challenge hogger.
The hogger you see in elwynn is actually a illusion caused by the might of hogger that spawns multiple hogger look alike adds

Hope it helps if you want to die and destroy WoW (he still uses rock smash when your dead and he also use outland smash to get you away from his throne room after you die)

Strategy:

Make sure your raid clears the surrounding area before engaging hogger, there is a very fast respawn timer for the adds.

Make sure your raid is fully buffed before even attempting him.

Phase 1:
The fight starts when you engage Hogger, he will use https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=6730 on your MT, then switch to the THIRD highest person on threat. Because of this it is helpful to have 3 tanks, so the top 3 threat characters will be a tank.

He will use https://www.wowhead.com/cata/spell=6016 on his target, it is important that the off tank taunts Hogger off the MT, or else Hogger will hit for huge, unimaginable amounts.

Make sure the tanks are quick with the taunts, a Pierce Armor on the MT followed by a crit from Hogger can be disastrous.

Phase 2:
Phase 2 starts when the first gnome mage with pink hair dies from an add, this is UNAVOIDABLE, if ANY gnome mage with pink hair dies ANYWHERE on the server, Hogger will enter Phase 2.

(Hogger can not be killed without entering phase 2, if you get him down to 10% while in Phase 1, he will enrage, stunning everyone in melee range, then use Glaive Throw at everyone who is not stunned, this will wipe the raid.)

If Hogger is not entering Phase 2, then a Gnome mage with pink hair MUST be sacrificed to the nearest Murloc, it is the only way.

In Phase 2, hogger starts making fires which the raid must move out of. This is a new idea that Blizzard gave only to Hogger and is completely original in every aspect of the game.

So, this will be new to people, especially if they have raiding experience.

MOVE OUT OF THE FIRES

Once Hogger gets to 10% he enters....

Phase 3

Hogger will start growing, after 1 minute into phase 3, Hogger will be the size of Gruul, and will start hitting your tanks so hard, there is no way they can survive. At this point, you should use all of your cooldowns, and the tanks will start to die, then the melee dps, then the healers, then the ranged dps.

At this point of the fight, https://www.wowhead.com/cata/npc=7937 will come out to assist your raid, he will be able to taunt Hogger off your raid, and if you have enough dps alive, you will be able to kill him.

Knowns Drops:
Ashbringer
Thunderfury
Sulfras
Mechanical Squirrel Box?

Good luck.

LOL 3 Legendaries and Mechanical Squirrel box. In Soviet Russia, you don't kill Hogger, Hogger kills YOU

Everyone say goodbye to WoW's Chuck Norris. Our friend Hogger will be removed in Cataclysm.

I hope they keep his memory in Trial of the Champion.

It'd be real cool if they placed a level 85 Hogger in a dungeon, or better yet, a boss "?" level Hogger in a raid.

Commentaire de 589637

Nonsense, he will not be removed, But instead Blizzard made the whole of eastern kingdoms a raid on Hogger.
Why do u think they making us able to fly in Cataclysm, Ill tell u why!
Whoever even touches the ground will instant aggro "HIM"!
thus causing instant wipe for EVERYONE, even if ur not raiding!

Hogger is OP

Commentaire de 602737

Here is the story about how I met the brutal Hogger.
I, a renowned warrior Tauren, was looking for some action near Stormwind. After killing many humans near the city gates, I decided to relax a little south of there. That was my big mistake ... and I'll always remember that fateful day.
I sat at the foot of a tree to eat a little when came the first signs. Wild pigs burst into flight. Along with the huge cloud of dust, came the smell of blood and carrion. When I looked around me, I noticed bones covered with dirt, vultures flying in the sky, the forest itself feared what was coming.
He emerged amid the dust ... his eyes stared at me with contempt and violence. I felt he was powerful, smelled blood on his ax, the weight of one hundred thousand souls drawn by hand. When Hogger roared, I felt as if the night had arrived. I felt eyes watching me amid the treetops, the wind whispered in fear groans.
He charged at me. I jumped immediately and defended my jugular. When the blades collided, my body was thrown back ... he was powerful ... much more powerful than I imagined ... that could be my last battle. He sensed my fear. Roared once more. The trees shook in fear. My arm was shaking ... I could not even defend myself from his blows. There was no way to win that battle ... all I could do was keep me alive and escape. Disengaged myself from his gasps and waited until he hitted a tree. But to my surprise when his ax hit the trunk, he knocked down the tree with a kick. I was almost crushed by the fall of the trunk ... That beast was too powerful. But then things changed... Hogger stopped and sniffed the air. Started to ignore me completely. Seemed to sense the presence of something. It was then that I saw ... a huge army of gnomes was coming ... Hogger grunted and laughed. When I turned around and shot on the run, I heard the ax of Hogger tearing the flesh of gnomes ...
This is the story of how it was my encounter with the beast ... few have seen and survived ...

Some advice when you and your raids attempt this beast:

Do not ghost-run back to your corpse when you die (which you will), Hogger will eat your ghost and your character will be automatically DELETED!

Commentaire de 349210

Apparently, he will return in cataclysm as the new stockade end boss.

Stormwind is doomed!

Commentaire de BlazingShadow

Ok, I'm confused. Some people say 40 man raids can't take him out, while some pople say lvl 12's can solo him, which is true?

Commentaire de 505916

Elwynn Forest was merely a setback!

Commentaire de darknesscalls

Hogger will be a boss in Stormwind Stockade in Cataclysm at the end of the "Gnoll" wing

The quest the NPC gives you to kill him says:

"<Name>, I'm afraid I must ask of you the impossible. I received my eyepatch because he willed it so. Countless thousands have perished to his wrath. It was only by sheer miracle that we were able to imprison him here. Doing so was a grave mistake. When the quakes came, his cell was opened and with it came his fury. His band of Riverpaw Gnolls guard him feverishly. You know of who I speak. You must defeat him, lest he mounts an attack of his own and slaughters us all in bloodthirsty rage."

Then a picture is off to the side (a new feature in Cataclysm that some quests have)

The picture shows Hogger with this flavor text below him:

"No one can defeat him."

EDIT: Thanks for the downrate ...

Commentaire de Blights

In Cataclysm, Hogger will not only be in Elwynn Forest, but Stockades as well.
When entering the Instance, several quests will be available, 1 of them being you having to kill Hogger. And apparently, he can will peoples eyes out.

He's a level 24 Elite who of course, shouts "Elwynn Forest was merely a Setback!" upon entering combat with him.

The only ability he seems to has in the beta so far is Maddening Call, I ran it at a high level so I never saw what it did, it seems like a Mind Control or a Fear.

Considering the level, he hits pretty hard on Cloth Wearers, be careful those trying to do this on Beta.

EDIT: What's with the Downrate? :S

Commentaire de 637388

In cataclysm hogger will have been captured in stormwind stockade and will become a level 24 elite, obviousley something that awesome couldn't be contained in a cell. He'll break out and start a devastating rampage on the area.

heres a video of the instance + hogger also showing quests.

Commentaire de Quilan

Hogger is the Gnoll God of raid wiping. Worshiped mostly by the riverpaw gnolls, Hogger is known mostly for killing all inturders upon Riverpaw lands, Namely Elwynn Forest. Hogger can't be killed or injured in anyway due to his Godlyness. During his long never ending life, Hogger was attacked by the most famous people and beasts of all time: Godzilla, Indiana Jones, Darth Vader, Arnold Swartsenagger (i know it might be spelt wrong i don't care), Al Capone, El Chupacabra, the Loch Ness Monster, Sauron, The Ghostbusters and Chuck Norris. All failed in their attempts at killing this beast and died. People have eye-patches because He wills it so (in other words, He wills peoples eyes out). Millions upon millions are killed by Hogger. Every Tuesday, Hogger faces off against Sarufang, The Cleaver in an epic battle that creates an error so large the entire game goes down for that day. From this day Hogger, He who feeds on your soul, roams the Riverpaw gnoll lands and kills all who approach him. And to this day, Hogger has not yet died once.

Recaptcha: the immortal, yes Hogger is the immortal

Commentaire de StaticLgtBrngr

I still remember him, he was the first elite quest I ever picked up.

These days I like to buff him with my priest using mind control then hide behind a tree and watch players his level try to solo him with fortitude and shadow resistance on, lol.

The mind control helm on my warrior backfired on him once and he controlled me instead which was interesting.

Oh hello level 10 mage, hello 5k mortal strike.

Kek.

Hogger ranked 24th in "The 47 most diabolical Video-Game Villains of all time."

One can only assume the author has:

a) Never played WoW
or
b) Only rolled horde and never set foot near Elwynn forest.
or
c) Played a nasty trick on unsuspecting readers who will courageously attempt to confront this "only 24th on the list" villain. :D

Just what I saw in my old dreams were theyreflections of my warped mind staring back at me
Cos in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mindand brings me to despair"

I think we all know well that these are the lyrics to Iron Maiden's the Number of the Beast.
Secretly this Intro verse is about hogger. I mean, It's not just coincidental that he has 666 hp.................... Hogger IS the beast.

Hey people, I just killed Hogger today...

Commentaire de 748292

Hogger has been known to punt enemies in Elwynn forest.... they land in Shadowmoon.

At this point, your armor doesn't take durability damage. It merely deletes it off of your character.

Hogger was once successfully kited by a 40-man level 85 raid to Stranglethorn Vale. Growing bored, Hogger rushing charged one of the few remaining members, quickly landing a Vicious Strike. The Sundering now marks that spot.

Commentaire de 762956

I spotted Hogger at the BP station. Though terror filled my heart, I doused him with gasoline and managed to set him ablaze, which only angered him more. Fortunately for me I was able to drive away quickly and maintain my life.

Commentaire de 766341

I don't know what i'm doing wrong, but when i attack Hogger as a Horde he won't go below 1 hp and some wierd people from Stormwind comes and takes him away to The Stockades.

Basically, i can't kill him :(

Commentaire de error10

You aren't doing anything wrong. Hogger can't be killed!

This is the same event that occurs for Alliance players. When Hogger reaches 1 HP, General Marcus Jonathan (Stormwind defender and star of numerous steamy romance novels), High Sorcerer Andromath and Stormwind mage trainer Maginor Dumas port in, and a Ragamuffin runs out of the forest to the scene:

General Marcus Jonathan yells: Hold your blade, adventurer!
Ragamuffin says: General Marcus Jonathan!
Ragamuffin says: Wow!
Hogger says: Grrr...
General Marcus Jonathan says: This beast leads the Riverpaw gnoll gang and may be the key to ending gnoll aggression in Elwynn.
General Marcus Jonathan says: We're taking him into custody in the name of King Varian Wrynn.
Hogger says: Nooooo...
General Marcus Jonathan says: Take us to the Stockades, Andromath.

The party then port out.

Commentaire de nintendorichard

It seems that most classes can now solo Hogger at or after Level 9. I've killed him on a Level 8 Hunter (though he was fully heirloomed out), a Level 9 Mage, and a Level 9 Rogue.

I hear that one critical strike against him is enough for a 24 year lag spike and an 872 day suspension. Also, he also can give you Hogger Cancer, which causes instant death but it feels like someone stabbing you repeatingly for 13 years. He can also give you major viruses that allow your computer to become a Decepticon and kill your entire family. Now that he owns stocks it has become a 400 man coop raid instance. He one shot all tanks with divine shield. DO NOT GO TO HIM! YOU WILL BE CURSED!

Don't forget, kids, he also casts the spell every 4-5 seconds, so you have to add a new person to your group at that rate. He has cost the world of Azeroth over 1 million characters in deletions. (LOL)

So I was going to get ganked by Hogger on my horde mage. All of the sudden three random humans comes and speaks perfect Orcish. They tell me to lay down my blade because they need Hogger.

Why could I not kill them all? And why did Hogger agree to go away with them? Since we all know that no one can kill Hogger!
