Yogg-Rul, the Wailing Maw. One of the thousand maws of Yogg-Saron. As the vast carcass of Yogg-Saron rots beneath the frozen earth of Northrend, his body spasms with the unnatural energies of the Old Gods. and pieces of it come to life and begin to attack on their own. Without Yogg-Saron's mind to guide them, his thousand maws erupt out of Azeroth's underworld to devour everything around them. Covered in blisters of rotting saronite, howling with madness and hunger, Yogg-Rul is one of the largest and most terrifying of these undying maws.

Strategy

Upon entering the Temple of the Shattered Eye, players will watch a short scene where Yaresh Sinscale attempts to capture the fragment of the Eye of Nerub. However, Xarosan appears and captures the eye fragment for himself. He then awakens Yogg-Rul, who devours Yaresh and begins the encounter. Yogg-Rul emerges from a massive gaping chasm in the center of the temple chamber - players will engage him while standing on broken platforms high above the chamber. Chains that hang from the ceiling can be used to move from platform to platform.

Yogg-Rul will use Frightful Rampage if he is not engaged in melee combat within 4 seconds. He will use all of his Phase One abilities, periodically engulfing the platform players are currently standing on with Baleful Breath. Players will need to use the chains that hang from the ceiling to move to another platform in order to avoid being slain. When Yogg-Rul has been reduced to 25% health, Phase Two will begin.

When Phase Two begins, Yogg-Rul will destroy all of the platforms in the chamber, plunging all players into the pool of liquid saronite at the bottom of the chamber. The saronite will break the players' fall, but players will be immediately afflicted with the Sinking into Saronite debuff, which prevents them from swimming but allows them to move normally as if they were on land. The debuff will also deal damage over time. Yogg-Rul will use all of his phase two abilities, and will also vomit out the corpse of Yaresh Sinscale, which is revived as theSaronite-Wracked Deeplord, an undead naga monster. The Saronite-Wracked Deeplord will pursue the closest target and attack it, placing a stacking debuff on it. The encounter will continue until Yogg-Rul is finally slain.

Achievements

  • The Wailing Maw - Slay Yogg-Rul, the Wailing Maw.
  • Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine To Go - Force Yogg-Rul to destroy the platforms before making a third jump and then destroy Yogg-Rul.
