Very good feral druid head. Looks badass too. Dropped first time I ran ZF with Druid toon.

Also valid for Enhancement shaman if no-one else needs. Good until we can https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=11124 and probably still better for solo grinding. Looks great too.

Looks the best on a Troll, because of the tusks. Too bad I'm a priest and could only ctrl-click try it on.

Amazing stamina, though, for what I've seen.

Comentário de 57692

Man this one looks awsome :D as you guys said the +stam is amazing sad that im warlock.. :(

Comentário de Tsaza

Bloomsprout Headpiece Also good choise for hunters, shamans, warriors, paladins.

I won this one today on my first ZF run. Rolled against a druid. Too bad I'm only 43:(

Comentário de tlanwarrior

I've been using this maybe the past week or so on my Enchament Shaman, and works like a charm. I even gave up Khan's Head for this.

<3 the attack power bonus as a flurry Dagger Shaman.

Comentário de Avalonia

Lordrec Helmet (Alliance) and Undercity Reservist's Cap (Horde) are possible upgrades/sidegrades from this item for a feral druid and anyone else that wants agility (crit) instead of pure attack power. They are also obtainable by quests that are doable from level 47-49, so if you can get this item then use it, but don't go out of your way to farm for it unless you want to for some other reason.

Helm of fire: https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=8348
Righteous Helmet of the Monkey: https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=10073

These are the best substitutes for rogues at this level. The helm of fire can be made, has plenty of agi and sta and a very nice bonus of fire resistance. It will also hit for 300+ damage. The other hat has 15agi and 15sta which is also nice

Comentário de 80407

It dropped on my 6 run, but i didnt get it since druid needed (he had gotten almost everything else in the instance). To those who dont know how to get it, u must complete the "stairs" challenge. After that talk to the goblin (make sure not to talk to Bly, cus if u do, they will all go against u), but the goblin will blow up a door, and behind that, the boss is..

Comentário de 84308

During the 2 levels I've used this, I've noticed a recurring growl/snarl sound... I thought it could be the Kodo, then it occured while flying. Now I'm led to believe I had heard the sound more often due to wearing this. Can anyone support or refute this theory?

Comentário de 104402

As a feral druid, without any points in furor, I find it hard to decide between this helm and https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=8345 . The +rage and +energy on shapeshift from wolfshead is extremely useful, allowing me to feral charge right after a shapeshift. But the lack of stats on it hurts quite a bit. You would think they could do better than +10 spirit on it. Anyone think ones better than the other?

Comentário de 79687

as a balance druid, would this be any useful since u get mana based on attack power or stick with this

Comentário de 36937

Ok, I have a problem. I will soon have a 49 twink enhancement shaman. I am not sure whether or not to acquire the Embrace of the lycan or the Raging berserker's helm. I will get the +8 strength enchant to whichever head piece I choose.

Comentário de 39022

Refer to https://www.wowhead.com/wotlk/item=17767 for the best level 49 Enhancement Shaman twink item, well worth the required effort.

Comentário de crazy21

i've ran ZF 15 times with my friend this hasn't droped once... i'll keep tryingm8

Comentário de 172708

I'm making a 49 enhancement shaman twink. which do you guys think is better, Bloomsprout Headpiece, or Embrace of the Lycan?

Comentário de Raindance

Is it possible to add a libram to this item? I hear you can if you have a higher lvl character apply it as you would an enchant.

Comentário de snub999

Ran ZF 6 times trying to get this helm.
Chief's Enforcer x5
Big Bad Pauldrons x1

I don't want a crappy downgrade Blizz! Keep your damn staff and give me something I can use. Frickin huntards wearing this helm cause it looks "cool" and I can't get one to save my life.

I'll craft myself a Helm of Fire and be done with it.

Edit: 6 times at the time of writing, yes. When all was said and done, also 30+ runs and I had got a better drop elsewhere. Downvoting a 4 year old comment is fun.

Comentário de 216897

what better this or the helm of fire

Comentário de 243814

I got this on my 4th Ukorz kill. I think I'm lucky, as it supposedly has a 9-10% drop rate. :) Good luck.

Comentário de 71952

%$^! this drop-rate.

Comentário de 267513

30+ huh, got it my first run, and i didnt even know it dropped

good luck

Comentário de 318388

I have seen it drop twice in three runs.

Comentário de jar4677

Not to mention one of the coolest looking headpieces I've seen, especially at that level. For my Tauren druid anyway, I just looked at the screenshots of allies, hillarious!

Comentário de Iroared

Do not wear it as a gnome.

Comentário de 275504

looks ezpecially awesome on a male orc

Comentário de 376329

i think that it should go to fearl druids/ench shammys and rogues

Comentário de 390403

I've been trying to get this on my twink.

On run number 8 and it hasn't dropped. Whats with the 14% drop chance!

Comentário de Aurran

Got it last night on my 44 rogue, on my first try.
I was looking through AtlasLoot as we were running up the ramp to the boss, and linked it in party chat and said "ooh I hope this drops" sure enough, it dropped and then I rolled 100 for it.

Sucks for the ones who are farming without being able to get it, but heh just glad I got it :D

Comentário de 315859

Another drop from this boss are the BIG BAD Pauldrons.
This is a wolf's head.

Make the link.

Comentário de 400733

Is Embrace of the Lycan good for a rogue? :]

Comentário de 301121

i think this is pretty damn nice for a lvl 49 druid twink. if theres anything better plz tell me.

Comentário de kingkong

It's really hard to get, a 14% drop rate.

I've killed him about 15 times and no drop.

Comentário de LokiMax

While it may have been true that Helm of Exile provided no attack power to a shaman, it is not as of now.

Changed in patch 3.0.2, shaman gain a point of AP per strength and per agility, as well as a point of AP from intellect (from patch 3.0) through the talent Mental Dexterity. While this item may be better in some regards, taking Helm of Exile is not a bad choice, especially if you don't feel like waiting for this to drop, given that it increases both melee critical hit chance (through agility) and spell critical hit chance (through intellect), both of which an enhancement shaman would benefit from.

Though any enhancement shaman would benefit more from Bloomsprout Headpiece if they feel like farming an instance for a helm to use in the 40s PvP bracket (46 AP as opposed to 40 from Embrace and 29 from Exile, while also providing 18 stamina compared to 16 from Lycan and none at all from Exile). There would also be less competition for rolls on Bloomsprout (hunters and possibly warriors and paladins, as they do benefit from it as well, even if not quite as much due to no AP through agility) than with Embrace (which has a benefit to pretty much every melee DPS class at that level, though not as much to rogues and shaman, due to only a single point of AP per strength). The loss of spell critical chance from Exile is made up for with the extra attack power, as, at that level, enhancement's main source of spell damage is through shock spells, as they won't have Maelstrom Weapon for several more levels to make using Lightning Bolt often a wise choice.

tl;dr version: Helm of Exile is not an optimal choice for an enhancement shaman, but not a poor one, either.

This was in reponse to acolight's comment up above, but for some reason the reply option didn't link my comment to theirs.

Comentário de ToragTheDwarf

A number of rare (blue) items were updated in patch 3.3. The Embrace of the Lycan is one of them.

The helmet used to have 5 spirit instead of the recent 9 critical strike rating.

Comentário de 500419

I've just run through Zul'Farrak 31 times and finally this dropped...
I can tell you one thing about this! IT IS TOTALLY WORTH IT! this head is awesome =)

Comentário de Thottbot

I've done the rod 27 times and counting, I want the helm for sentimental purposes and good looks while pvping. I have yet to see it, and I've only gotten past the army waves 6 of the 27 times. This is using my 60 shaman, I swear they made it harder then it used to be. Even so the drop is extremely RARE!

Comentário de Thottbot

Is it best for druids? Yes, anyone who knows how druids benefit from strength can see that. However, I have no problems rolling against rogues and (possibly) hunters for this. They both get alot out of it as well.

Comentário de Thottbot

I have both a druid and a rogue both played to 60. One thing you must learn when you're a feral druid is that up until 57-60 you have no right to tell someone that an item is only for a druid(with the exception of wolfshed)

You picked a hybrid prepare to bare the burden that comes with it. You can play in some simalair sense ever class. That doesn't mean you have the right to flame people who role on items that you can use. Please don't turn the druid class into the hunter class where everyone cry's that it's a druid item only. YoYou benefit from staves, robes, leather, daggers, hammers, maces, ect. Does that mean it's rightfully yours?
You play a hybrid expect all your items to be rolled on.

As for the disscussion about HOF vs lycan, sure HOF is better, so rogues should pass on lycan because HOW is only at lvl 48? Did you forget it requires a hefty amount of gold? Most lvl 40-50 are still recovering from mount cash, so why not just run ZF gain exp and grab a decent free helm at the same time?

Comentário de Thottbot

If this drops I'd take it as a feral druid.

Yeah I'll be the healer of a ZF run, but you better believe I would take this helmet for solo grinding to 60. Screw rogues that think they have priority on it.

Comentário de Thottbot

how many runs did it take yall to have this badass helm drop?

Comentário de Thottbot

For all feral druids. This is alot better then the helm of fire. firstly 1 Str = 2 atck power...1 agi = 1 ack power... helm of fire gives 17 atck power where as lycan gives 16 + 32 equip bonus and also alot more health from the stam. Therefore this is a hands down winner of the HOF for ne feral druids... Rogues can roll on this as they get their atck power half half from str and agi... Also hunters can use it but they should give first preference to Feral druids and Rogues...IF there arnt ne of them go for it :P

Comentário de Thottbot

OMFG! was in ZF a min ago with my feral dru, no rogue or hunter in the group. everything goin fine till this drops then a PALADIN? ninja'd it and HS'd.
he Said "yes! im a ninja hahahaha noobs!" b4 leaving. Muumi Legioona (guild) on Stormreaver is full of ninja's and shud be avoided for grouping!

a freakin paladin!

Comentário de Thottbot

This is best for a feral druid, then a rogue, then a hunter, and shaman should be the last in line to get this. I ran ZF today with a lock, priest, warrior, mage and hunter. Dropped and since no rogue or druid was there, it was mine. So glad.

Looks like a wolf head <3 Kept this all the way to 60 just for dress up :)

Comentário de Thottbot

you just fought both sides of your argument and you still confuse me....

Comentário de Thottbot

I got this on my troll hunter i greeded but i was getting a run through by 2 friends who are level 70 and they passed ^^ i will keep for looks till 70 i was hopeing that my trolls green hair would stick out the back :( still looks good :)

Comentário de Thottbot

wow why do i keep seeing "HUNTer gear" its not hunter gear its a combat rogue or feral druid gear hunter with this pfft! get freaking raging berzerk helm it has stam and crit this is leather not mail

Comentário de Thottbot

I saw a guy wearing this when I was level 5. I got it after about 5 runs through ZF when I was 40-something. 55 now and I love it to bits X3 Going to try and get the Shadowcraft helm next, but I'm sure keeping this in my bank. I love it too much =D <3

Lvl 55 Troll sub rogue. Ravenholdt

Comentário de Thottbot

My combat swords rogue outrolled a druid on my team for this hat (which is definitely better than the one I had on) and he threw a hissy fit at me. I guess he now knows how rogues feel when every @#$%ing scrub out there rolls on our things because its leather and they can wear it.

Comentário de Thottbot

im going to be running this with my 46 rogue, and if it drops i will be needing regardless of who is in my group. i will however let it be known that i want the helmet before hand if it drops, because it is pretty obviously meant for feral druids specifically. But a rogue has every right to roll on this helmet as well. If a hunter rolls need on it, i would be pissed. Stick to mail.

Comentário de Thottbot

Got it at lvl 46, at my 3 ZF run, needed it and no other did.
Looking great on my tauren shammy, plp keep asking constantly where I get them.

Awsome look, I dont care if I find any better headpice, this will stay on way into the 50s.

Comentário de Thottbot

I really dont understand why people keep coming on and telling me that i cant have this item because its more built for Combat rogues... thats not going to stop me from pursuing it. Just because its not ABSOLUTLY perfect for my build doesnt mean its worse then some green item i bought off the AH.

-Cryoknight (Rogue)

Comentário de Thottbot

Pisses me off. I'm a 49 Rogue, and I'm doing ZF nearing my last runs just for this head piece. It drops. The Rogue I asked earlier if he needed it said he didn't, but he needs it anyway. A shaman, a %^&*ing healing spec'ed one, needs it also. Retarded.

Comentário de Thottbot

I have ben counting the number of runs i hav done trying to get this bad boy. 43 runs and still it hasnt even dropped once. I started running it at lvl 43 and now im one bar from 50. Is there any special requirement that must be met for this to drop? if so can you please explain?

And for the person for said rogues require no skill, you are not smarter than a 5th grader. We rogues have to watch our engery regen. Also we must be constantly aware of how long of a cooldown we have left on evasion, blade flurry, and adrenaline rush. Here is a tip, make a rogue and u'll see what i mean. other than that, don't trash us because we pwn.

Comentário de Thottbot

i got this on my first run in my feral druid who has yet to reach lvl 45. I'm so bloody lucky. It was one of the best moments in the game.

Comentário de Thottbot

Got it on my first ZF run with my 42 Rogue. There was no Druid or 2nd Rogue or anyone who could've needed it better in the team.

Although that doesn't mean much... the other day, in Uldaman, a Paladin and a Warrior "needed" some Agi/Stam leather leggings in a team with 2 Rogues. :P

Comentário de Thottbot

It's not melee attack power, its "attack power" which applies for both melee and ranged. And as anyone looking at this helm should know, hunters need ranged Attack power and occasionaly when you've been slowed etc, it helps to be able to deal a slight amount of damage until you can get away.
Although strength does not apply for hunters, the stamina and attack power are perefect for them, which counter-acts the fact that the armour itself is leather (which isn't THAT important if you can actually play a hunter slightly). Although this is, I do agree, this is more suited to rogues and feral's in the long run.
But, to anyone saying that this helm is useful only for rogues and feral druids, get your facts straight. Hunters need Stam, Agility, AP, Intellect and +crit chance, etc. All others are always useful though.
Anyone who wants to try and prove this helm isn't for hunters feel free to challenge me.

Comentário de Thottbot

great for rogues feral druids should go with wolfshed helm hunters should grab helm of exile. i really want this for my lvl46 rogue but id rather stick to my 3 levels a day plan to get a better helm.

Comentário de Allakhazam

This bad boy dropped and we didn't have a rogue or druid in the group so I was forced to DE it. Pitty how it's barely a 9% drop rate for it.

Sang'thraze the Deflector also dropped on the same run from Antu'sul, the warrior didn't know about it and passed on it. It made all the warriors on dark iron cry simultaneously.

Gotta love pick up groups :).

Comentário de Allakhazam

I just ran ZF today with my level 45 feral druid and picked this up. It was my first ZF run and the only other eligible person in the group was another druid who was specced to balance, so they let me need it. Let me just say that I could not have asked for a better piece of equipment, and I've already noticed the benefits. Now my attack power in cat form is almost 600, I am doing criticals up to 1000 and it gives me a much needed boost to stamina. Plus it looks so unique and cool. This is perfect for feral druids, please let one have it if you can't use it or don't need it!

Comentário de Allakhazam

lol it looks funny :-)

Comentário de Allakhazam

this is the coolest helmet in the game, i think

im a hunter who is level 49 and i just got it, looks so damn cool and is actually pretty damn good

Comentário de Allakhazam

Dropped today at Zul'farrak, i'm 49 rogue with Helm of fire. i Won it on greed roll so i have both of them at the moment. I would rather not have my head look like a wolf, besides, i dont think it's as good as the Helm of fire, so i vendored it shortly after.

The novelty of looking stupid with a wolf head wares off after an hour.

Comentário de Allakhazam

Rolled against a rogue(I'm a feral specced druid) on this and won. I had been healing and had my caster set on, so he thought i was lying when i said i was feral and accused me of being a ninja(via /y, nonetheless). I explained it to him, but he had difficulties grasping the concept of separate mana and feral gear sets.

Sigh. Some people... The item is nice anyway.

Comentário de Allakhazam

Got it on my Feral at 49 or so, and being the stamina hog I am i nabbed it, don't worry no one else needed it, but i think it looks pretty dang sweet too.

Comentário de Allakhazam

13 runs and counting..... still no helm

Comentário de Allakhazam

Try Helm of Fire for lvl45, it's way better than this baby :)

Comentário de Allakhazam

I finally got mine. It IS perfect for a feral druid, and I love it.

Comentário de Allakhazam

23 runs, still no hat :-(

its perfect for feral druids like myself...

Comentário de Allakhazam

Anyone have a pic of this on a troll?

Comentário de Allakhazam

It looks MUCH cooler on undead

Comentário de Allakhazam

I just got one of these today, looks pretty good on a night elf.

Comentário de Allakhazam

still doing runs for this, i had pleasure of seeing it drop once since i started, but lost roll to rogue. hope it drops again.....

this is rare drop, he ussualy always drops the crap axe or plate, if this drops for you and your druid or rogue, grab it because you might not ever see it again.

Comentário de Allakhazam

Eh, I don't know if the Helm of Fire is better than this... Helm has 17 Agility, and 10 Stamina ( I think) plus some fire resistance, and a goofy use, heh.... the Helm with the 17 Agility only gives 17 attack power (1 AP per agi for rogues) this gives 32 Attack power, thats the equivelent of 32 Agility in Attack power, not to mention over 1% added Critical strike chance... and thats at 60, but mainly it depends on your build I guess, but Attack Power is great, and not to be overlooked by a Helm that most people get just to look Trendy, like every other rogue at 45 :/

Comentário de Allakhazam

Woot, I'm a level 43 rogue and just did my first ZF with 2 guildies and 2 pickups, this thing dropped. I was only leatherwearer and was N for me so I got it. I'm so happy as our guild has tons of mid-50s rogues who wanted this so bad around my level =D

Comentário de Allakhazam

Damn that looks retarded on a Gnome

Comentário de Allakhazam

rogues should let feral druids get this. they get ebon mask after some lvls anyway, and its more useful to druids.

Point 1. Ebon mask is one of three quest rewards for a rogue Q and imho the other items are better. The lycan's embrace is comprable in usefulness to ebon mask for rogues.

Point 2. Rogues have equally the same stake on on of these as a druid. If you need something, you need on it, else you greed on it. People who say 'sewansew should let sewensew have this coz sewensew gets this in a couple of lvls' really get on my nerves. When they accuse you of being a ninja, welcome to /ignore and an entry on the guild forums under 'idiots to avoid'.

Bottom line is : If this dropped for me I'd probably need on it. If a druid or anyone else claims that to be unfair or ninja'ing, well you can kiss my leather clad *&%.

Comentário de Allakhazam

Dropped from first kill. Two another ppl roll for it but I winn, I was happy as hell coz I wear like feral druid wolfshead only for look (look like this helm but its crap) and this helm is good for feral druid and have best druid look. And now I go celebrate it to some pub =]

Comentário de Allakhazam

i am a troll and have it and dont worry, it looks bloddy sweet

Comentário de Allakhazam

got this as a 43 shadow priest. no one needed it in group so greed rolled and won. good 1.5 gold from this =P

Comentário de Allakhazam

Got it today from ZF, which was really lucky for me (really low drop rate compared to others like the big bad pauldrons) but pissed off my group (2 other pallys, 1 mage and a 62 warrior who didn't care about loot obviously) so I got this sweet helm. I like the looks, and great stats and bonus.

Comentário de Allakhazam

If you're Tauren this is the one and only chance you'll ever have to make everybody jealous of your appearance. You get to be a freakin werewolf! Totally meant for Tauren, esp looks great with no facial adds and gritted teeth. RAWR

Comentário de Allakhazam

rogues should let feral druids get this. they get ebon mask after some lvls anyway, and its more useful to druids.

Comentário de Allakhazam

Looks awesome on dwarfs, cant even see theyre eyes

wonder if undead have eyes *poke*

Comentário de Allakhazam

This also is very good to a warrior, cuz it has +16 stamana and +8 Strength

Comentário de Allakhazam

look insane on Tauren ;)

Comentário de Allakhazam

lol that looks like garbage on that gnome... looks like you have a wolf head when equiped on undead

Comentário de Allakhazam

gnomes are just the stupidest race ever, and everything looks like garbage on them

Comentário de Allakhazam

anyone know any other helms that look like this? or what the white one is that the frostwolf ambassador in ogrimir is wearing is called?

Comentário de Allakhazam

looks hilarious, and its a nice item.

feral druids and rogues rightfully love this for leveling up.

it is a rare drop, but i was happy to finally get my hands on one. :)

Comentário de Allakhazam

I got this on a random ZF run with my 50 rogue tonight, and when I equipped it I started randomly hearing a stupid ROAR bear like sound :)

The sound plays around every 30 seconds or so, and it doesn't come when I unequip this :D L O L just wanted to mention it - try it out people :D

Comentário de Gulanga

Got this on my DPS warrior on a greed roll, and realized that this is a very good head piece indeed.

You do lose a bit of armor vs plate but the Strength and Attack Power combines into effectively 24 Strength (32ap / 2 = 16 + 8 = 24).
That is 48 AP in the end, all in all.
Added the 16 Stamina, you get +40 of your core stats on this item, plus the ever underrated (for leveling) Spirit of +5.

Any melee DPS should consider this head piece.
